Money as Rocket Fuel

Shift from automatic to alignment,
via your unique money code.

An invitation

What was the first moment you realised money's role in your life?

Perhaps it was overhearing your parents squabble or quarrel about it, or you saw something in the shops and you really wanted it, and your mother said, "No. Money doesn't grow on trees."

Or it was your turn to bake the cake for school and the recipe needed a block of butter and dad said no and all you could think of was the shame of not doing your bit for the class, so mom had to eventually sneak you the money.

Ignore it, resist it or be curious about it, we all have a relationship with money.

Money as Rocket Fuel is an opportunity to be curious about it, to shift from automatic to alignment via your unique money code.

Due to the emotional and energetic relationship we each have with money, as this comes into alignment with our unique money code, so too will other key relationships; such as those with time or your body, opening up new chapters in the areas that matter most in your life.

Mandy Russell
Mandy's personal share

The moment I realised . . .

I was eleven years old and the VW Jetta replaced the Mercedes Benz as the family car. I didn't have a full grasp of the situation as my parents' approach was to protect us from reality, be it their cancer journey or the state of the building industry, where my father owned a ceiling and partitioning subcontracting company servicing the big construction companies that dominated the building industry in the 70s and 80s. I didn't understand terms like recession and my father with his UK grammar school education, to the equivalent of standard 8, had no idea how to recession proof his business, so we lurched from famine to feast and back again.

Once brave enough I asked my mother why she was crying and she said she had to sign away not only the house as surety, but the cups and saucers too, in order to secure a loan to tide the business over. In that moment I faced not only the uncertainty of the potential loss of both my parents to cancer, but also the threat we may be homeless.

01

Cracking Your Money Code

Uncovering and exploring your Sacred Money Archetypes

Your Sacred Money Archetypes are symbolic metaphors that help you understand patterns and behaviours. They show us who we are so that we can become aware of and change our subconscious behaviours. Every opportunity that comes into your world is being filtered or seen through the lens of your SMA code. Opportunities are around you all of the time but you ENERGISE these opportunities through the perspective of your top three archetypes.

Archetypes are a pattern of power within you that contain a complete set of stories, beliefs, motivation, fears, courage and give you direction in making choices that help you live a life you love and help you step forward as a leader in your business.

By exploring this natural first step in the journey you will gain depth of understanding of your archetypes' essence and characteristics and walk away with either a personal or business insights tool, fully complete in six key areas, with clarity on what you would like as forward momentum and how your archetypes can support you. Even a small change will open a big shift in results and happiness.

Little hinges swing big doors

Gabi Figueira

Before Mandy's Money as Rocket Fuel Programme, I often felt uncertain about money. I struggled with knowing how to price my services, when it was appropriate to increase my rates, and how to ask for more money without feeling uncomfortable.

One of the biggest shifts for me was realizing that I can trust that my work is valuable and worthy of being well paid. The course helped me step into a new level of confidence around pricing, and I now feel comfortable increasing my rates without guilt or self-doubt.

Today, I am much more confident in asking for what I'm worth and in recognizing the quality of service I provide. My attitude toward pricing and delivery has completely changed, and I've released a great deal of doubt about my abilities.

One of my favourite aspects of the course was working with the Money Archetypes. They gave me not only a profound insight into my relationship with money but also into how I show up in the world. Understanding my archetypes increased my confidence, deepened my self-awareness, and gave me valuable knowledge about how I function as a human being. I now feel confident about drawing boundaries, knowing my self-worth, and not needing to overcompensate, which I was prone to do.

Money as Rocket Fuel has been a powerful journey of growth, self-discovery, and empowerment, and I would highly recommend it to anyone wanting to transform their relationship with money and their sense of self-worth.

Creating Your Conscious Money Compass

A powerful visualisation and the creation of a compass that supports alignment and new decision-making

Most people walk around in their life and in their career or business not consciously connected to feelings about money that:

  • are positive
  • honour their values
  • help them to feel empowered
  • energise them into authentic, aligned action

The solution is for them to transform how they feel about money, to get clear about what they really value and to have specific, powerful actions they can take that make it easy for them to make life-changing decisions. This module is an extremely experiential exercise creating the Conscious Money Compass document - a highly personalised template that artfully brings together emotionally rich elements that have deep, personal meaning for you.

Expect to walk away:

  • clear on what you really value
  • empowered to make life changing decisions with ease
  • plus action steps you will be passionate about following

With clarity comes momentum

Coenie Snyman

Launching Rock of Eye Wines was the natural next chapter in my career, but I quickly found that passion and a plan weren't enough. My relationship with money was one of constant anxiety. I'd even find myself joking about cash flow, a nervous habit to mask the underlying stress.

'Money as Rocket Fuel' was a pivotal moment. It forced me to look beyond the numbers and truly understand my relationship with money, reframing it from a source of fear to a tool for growth.

The concept of becoming 'cash flush' is no longer a distant hope; it's a tangible goal with a clear path. This program provided the financial clarity I needed to turn my venture into a sustainable business for the future.

Discover Your Money Voice

Some playful and impactful ways to relate to money and make shifts in your approach

Transform practical, everyday situations that would normally cause you a lot of stress into opportunities of empowerment that enrich your life:

  • Talking about money - a simple formula for accessing your courage and confidence when discussing money in life's most important situations, such as with a spouse, colleagues, friends or family.
  • Stopping money leaks - stop the money leaks that can be costing you your sense of self worth and ultimately, your income.
  • Creating healthy money boundaries - pinpoint the most common everyday money blind spots in your business or career and calculate exactly what it's costing you, plus steps to solve this important problem.
  • Stop discounting your worth - own your value with your fees or salary. Create life-changing money boundaries that increase cash flow and self-respect in the process.

There are three unique exercises in this module. You would pick based on your current priorities, or choose to do more or all of them:

  • Empowering Your Voice
  • Money Boundary Breakthroughs
  • No Excuses Empowerment Tool

Enrich your day to day living

The thread that runs through it all

Alignment

Underneath all of this work with our Sacred Money Archetypes is alignment. Alignment within ourselves is like being in integrity - an absence of guilt, shame, defensiveness or helplessness. Instead you feel strong, positive feelings that are often expressed as joy, happiness, courageousness, a sense of purpose, empowerment, clarity or decisiveness.

Being in alignment is a feeling that then gives you courage to take new or empowered actions. It's what sees you through a tough situation, knowing that you're doing the right thing even though in the moment, doing that right thing may take a lot of inner strength and may even seem terrifying for a few moments.

When we're out of alignment we're vulnerable to feeling blamey, shame and guilt, helpless or even resentment. It's also when we're vulnerable to being taken advantage of, saying yes when we really want to say no, feeling overly righteous or indignant, blaming others or feeling a victim of circumstances, or in some way not holding ourselves as powerful.

Press Reset - A Powerful Money Story Makeover

Deeply transformational as we press reset and pull ourselves forward in new ways

Discover the power of creating a new money story that will transform your beliefs and actions with money instantly, changing how you feel from the inside out and shifting how you see our world so that the opportunities and experiences you create are congruent, or in alignment, with what you want most.

The module is called Press Reset because we are creating a brand new money story that you can begin telling and living from, starting immediately. This is really powerful because we're always imprinting our sub-conscious with images, ideas and sayings. When you look at your brand new money story every day, you're imprinting what you want to create in your life, which is the fastest way to shift out of the past.

There are two exercises in this module. They can be done alone or as a sequence:

  • Shifting your money story perspective
  • Your new money story

Both can be done in one extended session.

Starting over begins today, irrespective of your past

Having worked with Mandy during my executive tenure at Unitrans, she empowered me and my team to build the succession plan that enabled my shift into a global business.

Later, as I ventured into my own consulting practice, working with Mandy on my relationship with money was a beautiful gift. Her approach is grounded in wisdom and focussed on transformation - she is a true partner in growth through all seasons.

Shatter Your Glass Money Ceiling

Here we uncover the places we put limitations on ourselves and shatter them

Break free of self-imposed limits that are creating a glass money ceiling. A glass ceiling is a term used to describe an unseen barrier that keeps a person from breaking through into a new level of success, insight or achievement. What we're focused on in Sacred Money Archetypes is our own personal economy - our own inner glass money ceiling, because this is something we can absolutely shatter and break through, leading us to make new decisions that can dramatically change the direction of our life in really positive ways.

In this module you will receive:

  • the three-minute daily tool that quickly pinpoints the patterns money is taking in your life
  • step by step, how to identify which of the four most dangerous money mindsets you are unconsciously using to run your life, and an exercise that will help you make a significant shift on the spot so that you can break free of overworking, under-earning or under-charging
  • an exercise designed to give you an alternative mindset that will feel authentic, plus specific action steps you can take to begin shattering your glass money ceiling

Corlé Venter

My experience with the Money as Rocket Fuel course and Mandy's coaching has profoundly shifted my perspective on money. I've learned to stop fearing money and instead welcome, embrace, attract and appreciate it.

Previously I had this very distorted relationship with money, fearing its absence and giving it away too easily when it was there and in so doing causing the absence and the fear cycle was intense. The breakthroughs I've had around my money ceiling revealed that I was standing in my own way.

I really understand now that my creativity and contributions are deserving of proper compensation. I deserve to be paid well. Yes, I am worthy. While I am not fully there yet, I now see potential. My view of the world and opportunities has transformed. I can spot opportunities more easily. I never used to be able to do that. This shift has brought a sense of freedom.

I'm no longer held back by money or its scarcity, and I am definitely improving my abundance mindset. The practice of acknowledging all forms of income or incoming money has made me present to what I receive. I'm learning to enjoy gifts rather than immediately giving them away. I prioritize self-care.

I must be honest, all of this has been truly mind-blowing, and I have to thank Mandy from the bottom of my heart. I am not a business person yet but this has definitely blown open the opportunity or the idea of doing something. I'm 54 now and have to think of my future. The corporate world will spit me out at some point and that surely is not my end. Now I see it as an exciting beginning.

Creating a Brighter Future

Get real insight into what you want most

Get crystal clear about what will make you happiest, help you make new choices about the direction your life and career or business is taking, and prioritise what matters most. People are often unhappy or dissatisfied with their life and end up living a life by default, instead of by design.

There are two powerful exercises:

  • Leading Your Life Forward in Powerful Alignment
  • The Create a Brighter Future Visualisation, intended to provide a reality check to make choices that empower the future you want to create for yourself

Move from fairytale to aligned action

Ben Maxwell

Before going on Mandy's Money as Rocket Fuel course, my relationship with money was complicated - it bled through my whole life - from how I managed my personal finances and household, into how I perceived opportunities and how I engaged clients.

Through cracking my money code, I better understood myself - from my recognising my own predispositions through to having the language to communicate more effectively.

Today, my understanding of my relationship with money is more clear and engaged. As a result, I have seen a dramatic shift in both my personal and work life.

It allowed me to feel grounded in the impact of our work, giving me the ability to discuss value rather than price; and helped my wife and I navigate the pressures of a young family into disciplined structure that takes care of us both today and in the future.

The Key: Your Top Three Sacred Money Archetypes

A closing word from Mandy

Reflections on the decade of working on my relationship with money, as I enter my wisdom years

When I first enrolled to study these certifications, I was arrogant enough to think it was to benefit my clients, after all "I wasn't in any debt beyond a phone contract". It was only in applying each one of the modules to my own life that I appreciated just how deeply impactful the subconscious energetic pulls are in one's relationship with money.

In the 15 years of being self-employed I have 12X my self worth, I've valued the deep intellectual thinking that capacity builds for my busy clients and I've compounded benefits like freedom and creativity, whilst continuing to invest in my 'retirement'; although that's a term that feels foreign through the lens of my second career.

I continue to be actively mentored by Kendall and others, bringing that investment directly to benefit you.

As you contemplate your next steps and if this is a pathway to your best chapter, I encourage you to reflect, possibly via a short walk, or a few moments of quiet solitude, on what the compounding impact of this investment might be in your own life; both business wise and personally.
