“There isn’t a part of our lives that money doesn’t touch – it affects our relationships, the way we go about our every day activities, our ability to make dreams reality, everything.”

Live via Zoom.
Money skills, both the practical one’s and also the mental/emotional skills are fundamental when growing both personally, or professionally. They not only provide a foundation for us so we can feel more confident and secure, but they also help us create financial space for us as we grow.
Each money choice we make, no matter how small, or big can help or hinder us in doing this.
Sometimes as individuals or business owners, we would rather focus on the fun stuff, rather than the money stuff (some think of it as the boring stuff or the scary stuff).
I like to help people like you look at money in a different way. It’s amazing what a difference improving these skills can make if you are feeling stuck, or not sure how to move forward in your business, or your life.
Financial control and confidence are underrated:-)
Money Chat is an informal group where you can talk about money, share experiences, and find help and support, in a non-judgmental, collaborative, and proactive environment.
Why is this group so important?
Money is one of those taboo subjects that people don’t feel confident talking about; sometimes it comes from learned beliefs, where we are taught not to talk about money. Money can also have a lot of negative emotions attached to it like shame, embarrassment, fear, guilt, sadness, etc….. so we just don’t want to open up because we are worried we will be judged or even ridiculed for the position we find ourselves in.
When we are struggling financially or even just worrying about money, the tendency can be to bury our head in the sand and hope that the problems will just go away.
It’s not about exposing your bank accounts to the world, it’s about finding help and support in a group so you can take positive action and feel less alone.
We can talk about anything money related, how much personal information you share is up to you, however I would remind everyone that money can be very triggering, so make sure you only share what you feel comfortable doing.
If you want to come along to just experience the group and not say anything, that is fine too, everyone is welcome. If you have a topic you want to raise, but do not feel comfortable sharing yourself, then send the host, Kim Masters, an e-mail and she can bring it to the group (anonomously if you wish).
The session will be hosted and mediated by Kim Masters. There will be a brief introduction by Kim at the start, and then it’s over to you to continue the conversation, or change the topic all together……
Anyone can attend the event, however there is also a Money Chats group on Enterprise Nation (search them on Google); you can become a member for free and then access this exclusive group where you will receive money tips, and other useful content.
There are a couple of basic rules for joining this group:
Confidentiality – anything discussed in the group stays in the group.
Awareness – of peoples feelings and emotions.
Non-judgemental – we are there to support each other.
Positive – we want to try and remain positive and not make matters worse for people.
Creative – feel free to offer ideas but make sure these are not forced on people.
Open Minded – be open to new ideas.
No Selling – this is not a platform to simply sell your products or services.
Listen – we will not interrupt people when they are talking.
Respectful – of each other.
Awareness – of others in the group, and not to monopolise the time.
***While Kim has 25 years experience in finance and accounting she is not a fully qualified accountant or financial advisor, so cannot offer advice of this nature, but will be happy to signpost you to someone who can help. Likewise, she is not a doctor or counsellor so cannot help with any specific mental health needs or diagnosis; again she can help signpost you to support if you find you are struggling or if the session raises some emotions for you***
