Releasing Resistance: How to Stop Blocking the Good Things You Desire

Posted on by Gull Khan

Have you ever felt like no matter how hard you try, you just can’t seem to reach the next level? You set intentions, you visualize success, you put in the work—yet something always seems to be in the way. That “something” might be resistance.

What is Resistance?

Resistance is the subconscious force that keeps you stuck in old patterns, afraid of stepping into something new. It’s the inner voice that whispers, “This is too good to be true,” or “What if I fail?” It shows up as procrastination, self-doubt, fear of success, or even sabotaging opportunities right before they manifest.

Resistance isn’t always loud. Sometimes, it’s hidden in our excuses, distractions, and unconscious beliefs. It can look like:
🚧 Saying you want financial abundance but feeling uncomfortable receiving money.
🚧 Dreaming of love but pushing people away when they get too close.
🚧 Longing for more success but avoiding visibility and opportunities.

Why Do We Resist What We Want?

At its core, resistance is self-protection. Your subconscious mind prioritizes safety over growth, even if that means keeping you in struggle. If you’ve spent years in survival mode, anything unfamiliar—even something positive—can feel unsafe to your nervous system.

We often resist because:
🔹 Fear of change – Even good changes bring uncertainty, and the unknown can feel scary.
🔹 Deep-seated beliefs – If you grew up believing you had to work hard for everything, ease can feel suspicious.
🔹 Emotional attachments – Sometimes, we hold onto struggle because it’s familiar, or we’ve tied our identity to it.

How to Release Resistance and Step into Flow

If resistance is keeping you stuck, here’s how to shift:

✨ Become Aware of It – Notice when you hesitate, procrastinate, or feel discomfort around the things you desire. Awareness is the first step.

✨ Ask Yourself: What Am I Afraid Of? – Often, resistance is masking a deeper fear. Journal on this: What feels unsafe about getting what I want?

✨ Regulate Your Nervous System – Your body needs to feel safe to receive. Try deep breathing, EFT tapping, or energy clearings to release tension.

✨ Clear Old Stories – Reframe limiting beliefs. Instead of Success means struggle, affirm I welcome ease and expansion.

✨ Take Small Steps Toward What You Want – The more you prove to yourself that ease is safe, the more resistance will dissolve.

Breaking Free from Survival Mode: How to Shift Into Thriving

Posted on by Gull Khan

For so many of us, survival mode is all we’ve ever known. It’s the default setting we inherited from our families, our culture, and our past experiences. But what if you weren’t meant to just survive? What if life was supposed to feel lighter, easier, more abundant?

Too often, we mistake struggle for success and exhaustion for achievement. But true thriving isn’t about constantly pushing through—it’s about stepping into a reality where you feel safe, supported, and capable of receiving more without the endless grind.

What is Survival Mode?

Survival mode is a state of constant stress and struggle—a mindset where you’re always bracing for the next problem, even when things are going well. Your nervous system is wired for danger, and instead of feeling safe to receive, rest, or expand, you keep running on autopilot, afraid to slow down.

It often stems from early life experiences, trauma, or societal conditioning that teaches us to equate worthiness with hard work, or safety with hyper-vigilance. When you’re in survival mode, your body and mind prioritize getting through the day rather than planning for a fulfilling future.

Signs You’re Stuck in Survival Mode

🚨 Feeling like you always have to work harder to deserve success – You struggle with rest because productivity feels like the only way to prove your value.

🚨 Struggling to slow down – Even when you’re exhausted, you feel guilty or restless when you try to take a break.

🚨 A constant fear of things going wrong – Even in good times, you anticipate disaster, keeping you from fully enjoying your achievements.

🚨 People-pleasing and over-giving – You put others’ needs ahead of your own, hoping that by keeping everyone happy, you’ll feel safer or more secure.

🚨 Feeling stuck and unable to move forward – No matter how much effort you put in, you feel like you’re running in place rather than making real progress.

Sound familiar? If so, it’s time to shift from merely surviving to truly thriving.

How to Shift from Surviving to Thriving

The transition from survival to thriving isn’t about doing more—it’s about shifting your mindset, energy, and habits so that life begins to work for you, rather than feeling like an uphill battle. Here are some key steps:

1. Reprogram Your Beliefs

Your subconscious beliefs shape your reality. If you believe that success has to be hard or that you have to struggle to deserve abundance, you will continue to create situations that reinforce those beliefs.

Ask yourself: What if success didn’t have to be hard? Start challenging the belief that struggle equals worthiness. Affirmations like I am worthy of ease and abundance can help rewrite these narratives.

2. Regulate Your Nervous System

If you’ve spent years in stress mode, peace can feel foreign—even uncomfortable. This is because your nervous system has been conditioned to expect chaos.

Try grounding techniques such as: 🌿 Breathwork – Deep, intentional breathing helps calm anxiety and shift your nervous system out of fight-or-flight mode. 🌿 Meditation & Mindfulness – A few minutes of stillness each day can train your mind to embrace ease. 🌿 Body Movement – Dance, yoga, or simple stretching can help release tension stored in the body.

3. Let Go of Overworking

Thriving isn’t about doing more. It’s about being open to receiving. When you’re in survival mode, you believe that rest equals laziness, but in reality, rest is a power move that allows your creativity, intuition, and problem-solving skills to flourish.

The more you trust, the more life flows. Instead of grinding harder, ask: How can I allow things to unfold with ease?

4. Clear Energetic Blocks

Many survival patterns are stored in our energetic field. We hold onto scarcity, fear, and past trauma unconsciously, which keeps us in cycles of struggle.

That’s why energy clearing is so powerful—it helps release what no longer serves you. Whether it’s through guided clearings, sound healing, or emotional release techniques, freeing yourself from old energy patterns allows you to welcome in new possibilities with greater ease.

The Path Forward

Breaking free from survival mode doesn’t happen overnight, but every small shift you make opens the door for greater abundance, ease, and joy. Imagine a life where: ✨ You feel safe to rest and recharge without guilt. ✨ You trust that success and abundance can flow to you effortlessly. ✨ You make decisions from a place of confidence and alignment rather than fear. ✨ You welcome support and know that you don’t have to do everything alone.

This is what thriving looks like.

How to Trust the Universe with Your Finances (Without Feeling Irresponsible)

Posted on by Gull Khan

When it comes to money, most of us have been taught to plan, save, and control every aspect of our finances. Society tells us that financial security comes from strict budgeting, endless hard work, and never taking risks. But what if there was another way? What if trusting the Universe could help you attract financial abundance without feeling like you’re throwing caution to the wind?

The idea of trusting the Universe with your finances can feel unsettling at first. After all, we’re conditioned to believe that financial success requires complete control. But trust doesn’t mean neglecting responsibility—it means shifting from fear-based decisions to faith-based actions.

Let’s explore how you can surrender to the Universe while still making wise financial choices.

Why Trusting the Universe Feels So Hard When It Comes to Money

Most of us have a complicated relationship with money. It’s tied to our survival, our self-worth, and our ability to live comfortably. That’s why trusting something unseen—like the Universe—can feel reckless. The fear of not having enough, making a bad investment, or losing financial security can keep us stuck in scarcity mode.

We’ve been taught that money is limited and that we must work tirelessly to earn it. But this mindset often creates stress, anxiety, and a constant feeling of “never enough.” Trusting the Universe doesn’t mean ignoring your financial reality—it means choosing to believe that abundance is always available and that you are supported in creating wealth.

How to Trust the Universe Without Feeling Irresponsible

Trusting the Universe with your finances isn’t about sitting back and hoping money falls into your lap. It’s about aligning your mindset, actions, and energy with abundance. Here’s how to do it without feeling reckless:

1. Shift from Scarcity to Abundance Thinking

If you constantly worry about money, you’re operating from a scarcity mindset. You believe that money is hard to come by, that you must struggle for it, or that it could disappear at any moment. The Universe responds to your energy, so if you’re always fearful about money, you’ll attract more financial stress.

Start shifting your thoughts. Instead of saying, “I can’t afford this,” try saying, “I am open to new ways of receiving financial abundance.” Replace fear with faith and start believing that opportunities for wealth are always available to you.

2. Take Inspired Action Instead of Forced Action

Trusting the Universe doesn’t mean doing nothing—it means acting from a place of trust rather than desperation. Forced action comes from fear: working long hours out of panic, taking on projects that drain you, or making financial decisions based on anxiety. Inspired action, on the other hand, feels natural, aligned, and intuitive.

Pay attention to the ideas and opportunities that excite you. Follow what feels right rather than what society tells you is the “safe” or “logical” choice. The more you act on inspired nudges, the more you’ll see the Universe meeting you halfway.

3. Practice Financial Responsibility with an Energetic Twist

Some people fear that trusting the Universe means abandoning financial responsibility. That’s not the case. You can still save, invest, and plan while embracing the energy of abundance.

Instead of saving money out of fear (“I need to hoard this in case something bad happens”), save from a place of empowerment (“I am creating security while remaining open to new sources of wealth”). Instead of making purchases out of lack (“I hope I don’t regret spending this”), invest in yourself with faith (“I trust that this will come back to me tenfold”).

Being responsible with your finances doesn’t mean you have to operate from fear. You can be both practical and spiritually aligned.

4. Let Go of the Need to Control Everything

One of the biggest blocks to abundance is the need to control how money comes to you. When you micromanage every detail, you limit the Universe’s ability to surprise you with unexpected sources of income.

Of course, it’s good to have a financial plan, but don’t become so rigid that you block new opportunities. Stay open to different income streams, unexpected gifts, and financial blessings that don’t come in the way you expected. The Universe often delivers abundance in ways you never could have planned.

5. Develop a Daily Trust Practice

Building trust with the Universe requires consistency. Set aside time each day to align yourself with abundance. This can include:

  • Gratitude: Acknowledge the money and resources you already have. Gratitude attracts more blessings.
  • Visualization: Picture yourself financially free, living the life you desire, and feel the emotions of abundance.
  • Affirmations: Use positive statements like “Money flows to me effortlessly” or “I trust the Universe to provide for me.”
  • Surrendering Fear: When financial worries creep in, remind yourself, “I am always supported. I choose faith over fear.”

The more you integrate these practices into your daily routine, the easier it becomes to trust the process.

Real-Life Proof That Trusting the Universe Works

If you’re skeptical, consider the countless stories of people who took a leap of faith and found unexpected financial success. Entrepreneurs who quit their draining jobs only to land their dream clients. Individuals who invested in themselves despite fear and saw massive returns. People who gave generously and received even more in return.

The common factor? They stopped making financial decisions from fear and started acting from trust. They allowed abundance to flow instead of forcing it. And the Universe responded.

Final Thoughts: Balancing Trust and Responsibility

Trusting the Universe with your finances doesn’t mean being reckless—it means shifting from fear to faith. It means making empowered financial decisions while staying open to unexpected opportunities. It means releasing control and allowing abundance to flow in ways you never imagined.

If you’re tired of struggling with money, consider loosening your grip. Take responsible action, but do it with the belief that you are always supported. Trust that the Universe wants to provide for you. When you align with this energy, you’ll find that money flows to you in ways that feel natural, effortless, and abundant.

Why Hard Work Alone Won’t Make You Rich (And What Will)

Posted on by Gull Khan

For generations, we’ve been told that hard work is the key to success. “Work harder, and you’ll achieve your dreams,” they say. “Put in the hours, grind every day, and your time will come.”

And yet, millions of hardworking people are stuck living paycheck to paycheck. They wake up early, stay late, and sacrifice their personal lives for their jobs, yet financial freedom remains out of reach.

Meanwhile, we see people who seemingly do less work yet accumulate vast amounts of wealth. They aren’t pulling all-nighters, working overtime, or running themselves into the ground.

So, if hard work alone doesn’t guarantee wealth, what does? Let’s break down the real formula for financial success and how you can start working smarter instead of just harder.

The Myth of Hard Work = Wealth

We all know people who work incredibly hard but never seem to get ahead financially. Construction workers, nurses, teachers, janitors—many of them put in more hours than corporate executives, yet they struggle financially.

If hard work were truly the key to wealth, wouldn’t they all be rich?

The truth is that hard work is only a small part of the equation. Wealthy people don’t just work harder; they work differently. They understand that money isn’t made through sheer effort alone—it’s made through leverage, strategy, and mindset.

What Actually Creates Wealth?

If working harder won’t make you rich, what will? Let’s break it down.

1. Leverage: Making Your Effort Multiply

Wealthy people don’t trade time for money—they create systems that make money for them. They use leverage, which means using resources outside of their own effort to create wealth.

There are different types of leverage, including:

  • Financial leverage – Using other people’s money (investments, loans, or funding) to generate income.
  • Time leverage – Delegating work to others or automating tasks so you don’t have to do everything yourself.
  • Knowledge leverage – Learning from experts, hiring mentors, or using existing information instead of figuring everything out from scratch.
  • Network leverage – Connecting with the right people who can open doors, provide opportunities, or collaborate on profitable ventures.

Think about it this way: A doctor might make $300,000 per year, but they have to work for every dollar. Meanwhile, an investor who owns rental properties can make the same amount (or more) while barely lifting a finger. The difference? Leverage.

Ask yourself: Am I making money only when I’m actively working, or have I created systems that generate income even when I step away?

2. Mindset: Your Beliefs Shape Your Reality

Your financial reality is a reflection of your money mindset. If you believe that “making money is hard” or “rich people are greedy,” you’ll subconsciously make decisions that keep you broke.

Wealthy people think differently. They don’t see money as scarce; they see it as abundant. They don’t see success as something reserved for the lucky few; they believe it’s available to anyone who follows the right strategies.

If you struggle with money, ask yourself:

  • Do I believe I deserve to be wealthy?
  • Do I see opportunities, or do I focus on limitations?
  • Am I constantly thinking about what I lack, or do I focus on what I can create?

The moment you shift from a scarcity mindset to an abundance mindset, your financial life will start to change.

3. Financial Intelligence: Learning How Money Works

Most people are never taught how money actually works. Schools don’t teach financial literacy, and many of us grow up in families where money was either a source of stress or a taboo topic.

But the truth is, if you don’t understand money, it will always control you.

Wealthy people make money work for them. They understand:

  • Cash flow – How money moves in and out of their life and business.
  • Investments – How to make money grow through stocks, real estate, and businesses.
  • Taxes – How to legally minimize tax burdens and maximize earnings.
  • Debt management – The difference between good debt (that makes you money) and bad debt (that drains your finances).

Start by educating yourself. Read books, take courses, and learn from financially successful people. If you don’t master money, you’ll always be a slave to it.

4. Taking Calculated Risks and Making Bold Moves

Most people play it safe. They stick to what they know, avoid taking risks, and stay in their comfort zones. But the truth is, playing it safe is the riskiest thing you can do.

Wealth is built by those who take calculated risks. This could mean:

  • Starting a business
  • Investing in the stock market or real estate
  • Leaving a secure job for a better opportunity
  • Developing high-income skills instead of relying on a low-paying job

Ask yourself: Am I holding myself back because of fear, or am I making bold moves that will lead to financial growth?

5. Building Multiple Streams of Income

One of the biggest differences between the rich and the poor is income diversification.

Poor people rely on a single paycheck. If they lose their job, they lose everything.

Wealthy people have multiple sources of income. They don’t put all their eggs in one basket. They might have:

  • A main business or high-paying job
  • Investments that generate passive income
  • Rental properties or real estate holdings
  • Side hustles or digital products
  • Stocks, dividends, or crypto investments

If you only have one source of income, you’re putting yourself at financial risk. It’s time to start thinking about how you can create multiple income streams.

So, What Should You Do Now?

If you want to build wealth, here’s what you need to start doing immediately:

1. Stop Trading Time for Money

Look for ways to create passive income, whether through investments, automation, or building a scalable business.

2. Shift Your Mindset

Adopt a wealthy mindset. Start believing that money is abundant and that you have the ability to create financial success.

3. Learn Financial Literacy

Educate yourself about investments, taxes, and money management. Read books, take courses, and seek mentorship.

4. Take Action and Take Risks

Stop waiting for the “right time.” Start making moves toward financial freedom. The biggest risk is doing nothing at all.

5. Build Multiple Streams of Income

Don’t rely on one paycheck. Look for ways to add more sources of revenue into your life.

Final Thoughts

Hard work alone won’t make you rich. If it did, every factory worker, nurse, and teacher would be a millionaire.

Wealth is built through smart strategies, the right mindset, and the courage to take action.

It’s time to stop grinding harder and start working smarter. Your financial future depends on it.

Let It Go: Releasing the Past & Trusting the Universe for an Abundant New Year

Posted on by Gull Khan

Welcome back to Money Mindset with Gull Khan! As we step into a brand-new year, it’s the perfect time to reflect, reset, and release. If you’ve been carrying the weight of the past—whether it’s regret, disappointment, or limiting beliefs—this episode is for you. Today, we’re diving deep into the power of letting go, trusting the Universe, and embracing abundance in every aspect of life.

Why Holding Onto the Past Holds You Back

We all have experiences that shape us—some good, some painful. While memories and lessons are valuable, holding onto past hurts, failures, or betrayals can prevent us from stepping into the future we truly desire. Imagine trying to climb a mountain while carrying a heavy backpack filled with old baggage. The more weight you carry, the harder it becomes to move forward.

The truth is, abundance isn’t just about money—it’s about freedom. Freedom from the past. Freedom from self-doubt. Freedom to create the life you were meant to live. And that freedom starts with releasing what no longer serves you.

How to Release the Past & Open Yourself to Abundance

  1. Acknowledge What You’re Holding Onto
    The first step to letting go is recognizing what you need to release. Are you holding onto financial failures? A relationship that didn’t work out? A missed opportunity? Be honest with yourself about what’s weighing you down.
  2. Reframe the Story You Tell Yourself
    Often, we stay stuck in the past because of the narratives we repeat in our minds. Instead of saying, “I failed at that business,” try, “I learned valuable lessons that will help me succeed in my next venture.” When you shift your perspective, you shift your energy.
  3. Forgive Yourself & Others
    Holding onto resentment—whether toward yourself or someone else—is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to suffer. Forgiveness doesn’t mean what happened was okay; it means you’re choosing to free yourself from the burden of pain.
  4. Trust That Everything Happens for a Reason
    The Universe is always working in your favor, even when it doesn’t feel like it. Sometimes, what seems like a setback is actually redirection toward something greater. The sooner you embrace trust, the sooner you make space for abundance.
  5. Practice Daily Release Rituals
    Letting go isn’t a one-time event; it’s a practice. Journaling, meditation, or even physically decluttering your space can help you release stagnant energy. Every time you let go, you signal to the Universe that you’re ready to receive something new.

What Happens When You Let Go

When you finally release the past, you create space—space for new opportunities, new relationships, and new financial breakthroughs. You start vibrating at a higher frequency, attracting more of what aligns with your true desires.

This is your year to step into abundance, but it starts with trust. Trust that the Universe has your back. Trust that the past doesn’t define you. Trust that what’s coming is greater than anything you’ve left behind.

Your Next Steps

Are you ready to let go and embrace abundance? Start today. Take one small step—whether it’s journaling about what you need to release, practicing forgiveness, or simply saying out loud, I trust the Universe to guide me.

Remember, manifestation isn’t just about setting goals; it’s about creating space for what you truly desire. And that begins the moment you decide to let go.

Here’s to an abundant, limitless, and extraordinary new year! 🚀✨

 

The Hidden Blocks Keeping You Stuck (And How to Break Free)

Posted on by Gull Khan

Have you ever felt like no matter how much effort you put into something, you just can’t seem to make the progress you want? You set goals, follow strategies, and stay consistent, yet you feel like you’re running in circles.

It’s frustrating, isn’t it? You start questioning yourself: Am I not doing enough? Am I not good enough? Maybe you even compare yourself to others who seem to move forward effortlessly, and you wonder what they have that you don’t.

But what if the real issue isn’t a lack of effort, discipline, or motivation?

What if the real reason you’re stuck has nothing to do with what you’re doing—but everything to do with your energy?

Why Hard Work Isn’t Always Enough

We’re often taught that success is about working harder—waking up earlier, grinding longer, and pushing through discomfort. And while effort is important, it’s only one piece of the puzzle.

If you’ve ever seen someone who seems to attract opportunities effortlessly—while you struggle despite working just as hard—there’s something deeper at play.

Success isn’t just about action. It’s about alignment.

Your subconscious mind holds onto deeply rooted beliefs, past experiences, and emotional patterns. If you carry hidden fears, self-doubt, or limiting beliefs, they become energetic roadblocks that keep you stuck in cycles of procrastination, overwhelm, or self-sabotage.

And the tricky part? You may not even realize they’re there.

The Subconscious Patterns Holding You Back

Have you ever wondered why:

  • You start a project with excitement but lose momentum halfway through?
  • You set big goals, but something always seems to “get in the way”?
  • You know what you should be doing, but you still procrastinate?
  • You feel drained, unmotivated, or stuck—even when you want something badly?

These are all signs of energetic resistance. Your subconscious is working behind the scenes, keeping you in a familiar cycle—even if that cycle isn’t what you truly want.

This happens because, at a deep level, your mind sees change as unsafe.

Maybe you associate success with burnout because of past experiences. Maybe you fear judgment if you step into a bigger version of yourself. Maybe a past failure left an emotional imprint that makes you hesitant to try again.

Without even realizing it, these subconscious fears influence your choices, reactions, and even your energy levels.

And no matter how much effort you put in, you’ll keep hitting the same invisible wall—until you clear the block that’s holding you back.

How Energy Blocks Show Up in Your Life

Energy blocks aren’t just abstract ideas. They show up in very real ways:

  • Procrastination: You keep putting off tasks, even when they’re important to you.
  • Self-Sabotage: Every time you get close to a breakthrough, something pulls you back.
  • Imposter Syndrome: You doubt yourself, even when you’re clearly capable.
  • Lack of Motivation: You feel tired or uninspired, no matter how much you want something.
  • Repeating Patterns: You keep facing the same struggles, no matter what strategies you try.

The good news? These patterns aren’t permanent. You don’t have to stay stuck in them. Once you address the root energetic block, things begin to shift.

How Energy Clearing Helps You Move Forward

Imagine walking through a field with a heavy backpack. Every step feels harder than it should because you’re carrying extra weight.

Now, imagine dropping the backpack. Suddenly, you can move freely. You feel lighter. You move faster.

That’s what energy clearing does.

It helps you release the subconscious fears, emotional blocks, and limiting beliefs that are weighing you down—so you can finally move forward with ease.

When you clear your energy, you don’t have to fight against resistance anymore. You don’t have to rely on willpower alone. You feel a natural pull toward your goals, and things start falling into place effortlessly.

Because success isn’t just about doing more. It’s about being in alignment with what you truly desire.

What Happens When You Clear Your Energy Blocks

Once you release the subconscious blocks that have been holding you back, you’ll notice big shifts in your life:

  • More Clarity: You know exactly what you want and how to move forward.
  • Increased Confidence: You stop doubting yourself and start trusting your instincts.
  • Effortless Action: You no longer have to force yourself to take action—it just happens naturally.
  • Opportunities Flow to You: Instead of chasing success, the right people and opportunities come to you.
  • Greater Ease & Joy: You stop struggling and start enjoying the process.

Energy clearing is about removing the invisible weights that have been slowing you down—so you can finally step into the version of yourself that’s ready for success.

Why New Year’s Resolutions Fail (And What to Do Instead)

Posted on by Gull Khan

Ah, New Year’s resolutions—the promises we make with all the hope and excitement of a fresh start. “This is the year I’ll finally get in shape.” “This is the year I’ll save more money.” “This is the year I’ll stop procrastinating.”

Sound familiar?

Every January, millions of us sit down with a pen and paper or our favorite app, creating a list of all the things we want to achieve in the year ahead. There’s a certain magic in those moments—a sense of possibility and a belief that this year will be different.

But let’s be honest: how many of those goals are still standing strong by February? Studies show that nearly 80% of New Year’s resolutions fail by mid-February. And if you’ve ever set a resolution and watched it quietly fade into the background of your busy life, you’re not alone.

So why is it so hard to stick to them? And more importantly, what can you do differently this year? Let’s break it down.

1. Resolutions Often Focus on Surface-Level Actions

Most resolutions are about what we want to do, like going to the gym more often, cutting back on sugar, or saving more money. But they rarely address the deeper reasons why we haven’t been able to do those things already.

For example, if you’ve been struggling to “spend less,” the problem might not be the budgeting app you’re using. It could be rooted in emotional habits, like spending as a form of comfort, or in limiting beliefs like “I’ll never have enough money.”

The truth is, unless we address the underlying why behind our habits, our efforts to change often feel forced and unsustainable. It’s like putting a band-aid on a wound that needs stitches—it might cover things up for a while, but it won’t hold in the long run.

2. We Forget That Motivation Fades

At the start of the year, motivation is running high. You’re excited about the possibilities, envisioning a new and improved version of yourself. But motivation is like a spark—it’s bright and energizing, but it burns out quickly.

When that initial excitement fades (and it will), what’s left? For most people, the answer is: nothing. Without a solid foundation of discipline, structure, and self-belief, resolutions tend to crumble under the weight of everyday life.

It’s not about being “bad” at sticking to goals—it’s about understanding that motivation alone isn’t enough to fuel long-term change.

3. Unresolved Emotional Blocks Sabotage Our Progress

This is the sneaky one. If you’re carrying unresolved fears, doubts, or limiting beliefs, they’ll act as silent saboteurs when you try to make changes.

Have you ever found yourself falling back into old habits, even when you knew better? That’s often your subconscious trying to keep you in the “safe zone” it knows. Change feels risky to the brain, even when it’s positive, so it resists.

It’s not that you’re lazy or undisciplined—your energy is simply out of alignment with your goals. Until you address the emotional blocks holding you back, progress will always feel like an uphill battle.

What to Do Instead

So how can you actually set goals that stick? Here are three powerful shifts to try:

1. Focus on Your “Why”

Instead of just saying, “I want to lose weight,” ask yourself why that matters. Is it about feeling more confident? Living longer to see your kids grow up? Having the energy to travel and experience life?

When your goals are tied to a deeper purpose, they feel more meaningful. And that sense of purpose makes it easier to stay committed when challenges arise.

2. Build Habits, Not Grand Plans

Big resolutions can feel overwhelming, which is why breaking them down into small, actionable habits works so much better. Instead of vowing to “save $5,000” this year, start with saving $5 a day or setting up an automatic transfer to your savings account.

These small actions might feel insignificant, but they add up over time. And with every bit of progress, you’ll build the momentum and confidence to keep going.

3. Clear the Energy Holding You Back

This is the game-changer. If you’ve tried everything and still feel stuck, it’s worth looking at the emotional blocks and limiting beliefs standing in your way.

Clearing trapped energy—whether it’s fear, self-doubt, or past failures—allows you to approach your goals with a clean slate. Imagine how much lighter and more aligned you’d feel without the weight of old patterns holding you back.

Ready to Start Fresh?

If you’re tired of setting goals only to feel frustrated or stuck, it’s time to try something different. This Sunday, I’m hosting a free live Energy Clearing Session to help you release the limiting beliefs and mental blocks keeping you from the life you want.

How to Heal Your Relationship with Money in 2025

As we step into a new year filled with potential, it’s time to confront one of the most impactful relationships in your life: your relationship with money.

For many, this connection is laced with stress, guilt, or even avoidance. Yet, healing your relationship with money can unlock not just financial freedom but a profound sense of peace, joy, and abundance.

In this post, we’ll dive into the root causes of money blocks, explore actionable steps to rewrite your money story, and provide affirmations and journaling prompts to guide you on your journey.

By the end, you’ll have a clearer path to financial empowerment in 2025 and beyond.

What Is Your Relationship with Money?

Your relationship with money is shaped by your beliefs, emotions, and habits. For many, these are deeply influenced by childhood experiences, cultural narratives, or past financial mistakes.

If you’ve ever found yourself thinking, “I’m not good with money” or “I’ll never be wealthy”, you’re not alone.

These thoughts are signs of what we call money blocks—limiting beliefs that hold you back from financial abundance.

Uncovering the Root Causes of Money Blocks

To heal your relationship with money, it’s essential to understand the root causes of your financial struggles. Ask yourself:

  • What did I learn about money growing up?
  • Were my parents or guardians savers, spenders, or worriers about money?
  • Do I associate money with stress, happiness, or power?

For example, if you grew up in a household where money was a constant source of stress, you might have developed an unconscious belief that money equals anxiety.

Similarly, if wealth was seen as something “bad” or only for “greedy people,” you may resist pursuing financial success, even subconsciously.

How to Heal Your Relationship with Money

Healing your money story requires a combination of mindset shifts, emotional work, and practical actions. Let’s break it down into manageable steps:

1. Acknowledge Your Current Money Story

The first step is to recognize the beliefs and habits you currently have around money. Reflect on these journaling prompts:

  • What’s the first word that comes to mind when I think about money?
  • What do I believe about wealthy people?
  • How does money make me feel—excited, anxious, neutral?

Once you’ve written your answers, look for patterns. Do your beliefs empower or limit you?

2. Rewrite Your Money Story

Your past does not define your future. Once you’ve identified your money blocks, actively replace them with empowering beliefs. For example:

  • Replace “I’ll never get out of debt” with “I am capable of creating a financial plan to clear my debt.”
  • Swap “I’m not good with money” for “I am learning to manage my money wisely.”

Create a new narrative about money—one where you are in control, worthy, and abundant.

3. Practice Daily Affirmations

Affirmations are powerful tools to rewire your subconscious mind. Incorporate these affirmations into your daily routine:

  • “Money flows to me effortlessly and abundantly.”
  • “I am worthy of financial success and security.”
  • “I attract opportunities to grow my wealth.”

Repeat these affirmations out loud or write them down in a journal to solidify your new money mindset.

4. Take Practical Steps Towards Financial Healing

Mindset shifts are crucial, but they must be paired with actionable steps. Here are a few ideas:

  • Create a Budget: Understanding your income and expenses can bring clarity and control.
  • Start Saving: Even if it’s a small amount, consistent saving builds confidence.
  • Seek Financial Education: Read books, take courses, or hire a financial coach to improve your financial literacy.
  • Invest in Your Future: Explore investment opportunities that align with your goals.

Lessons from My Own Money Journey

Let me share a personal story. For years, I struggled with the belief that money was hard to come by. This mindset kept me stuck in a cycle of scarcity, no matter how much I earned. It wasn’t until I began journaling about my fears and practicing affirmations that things began to shift.

One of my clients, Sarah, had a similar journey. She came to me overwhelmed by debt and ashamed of her financial situation. Together, we identified her money blocks and created a plan. Over time, she not only paid off her debt but also started a side business that now generates consistent income.

Your Money Healing Toolkit for 2025

To support your journey, here are a few tools you can use:

Journaling Prompts:

  1. What does financial freedom mean to me?
  2. What money habits am I ready to release?
  3. How can I show gratitude for the money I currently have?

Affirmations:

  • “I am in control of my financial destiny.”
  • “Every dollar I spend and save aligns with my highest good.”
  • “I am open to receiving wealth in all forms.”

Resources:

  • Read books on financial empowerment, such as “You Are a Badass at Making Money” by Jen Sincero.
  • Explore apps that help with budgeting and investing.

Making 2025 Your Year of Abundance

Healing your relationship with money isn’t an overnight process—it’s a journey of self-discovery, growth, and empowerment. As you work on shifting your mindset and taking intentional actions, you’ll begin to see opportunities you once thought were out of reach.

Remember, abundance is not just about the amount of money you have—it’s about the peace, joy, and confidence that come with financial alignment.

This year, let’s commit to a healthier, more empowering relationship with money. Together, we can create a life of financial freedom and fulfillment.

2025 is Your Canvas 🎨

Posted on by Gull Khan

The New Year always brings with it a mix of emotions—hope, excitement, and perhaps a little uncertainty. But as I sit down to write this, I want to remind you of something incredibly powerful: 2025 is your blank canvas.

You are the artist, and this year, you get to paint a life of abundance, alignment, and joy.

Over the years, I’ve seen firsthand how powerful it is to step into a new year with intention. But true transformation isn’t about setting fleeting resolutions; it’s about creating a clear vision, committing to inspired action, and aligning with your higher self.

Let’s dive into how you can make 2025 your most prosperous year yet.

Reflect: The Power of Looking Back

Before you rush to set new goals, take a moment to reflect on 2024. What were your wins? Celebrate them wholeheartedly, no matter how small they may seem.

Maybe you saved more money, mended a relationship, or prioritized self-care for the first time. These wins matter because they show your growth.

But reflection isn’t just about celebrating—it’s also about learning. What challenges did you face, and what lessons did they bring? Every setback is a stepping stone to success, and acknowledging them helps you move forward with clarity.

For years, many of us have been conditioned to equate prosperity solely with money. While financial wealth is a beautiful part of abundance, true prosperity is so much more.

It’s about feeling aligned with your purpose, experiencing fulfilling relationships, and living a life of joy and freedom.

Ask yourself:

  • What does prosperity truly mean to me?
  • How can I create a life that feels abundant on all levels—emotionally, spiritually, and financially?

Write these answers down and let them guide you as you design your year.

Heal Your Money Mindset

If you’ve been following me, you know that money mindset is at the heart of what I teach. And here’s a truth I’ve learned: your financial reality is a reflection of your inner beliefs about money.

This year, make it a priority to uncover and heal any limiting beliefs that have been holding you back.

Maybe you grew up hearing that money is scarce or that success comes at a cost. It’s time to release those stories and replace them with empowering beliefs that support your growth.

Say it with me:

  • I am worthy of wealth.
  • Abundance flows to me with ease.
  • Money supports me in living my best life.

The more you align your thoughts with abundance, the more opportunities will come your way.

Action: The Secret to Manifestation

Manifestation isn’t magic—it’s a beautiful dance between setting clear intentions and taking inspired action. This year, commit to showing up for yourself daily.

Break your big goals into small, actionable steps, and focus on progress, not perfection.

Remember, consistency is where the magic happens. Even on days when motivation feels low, remind yourself why you started and keep moving forward.

Gratitude: Your Gateway to Abundance

If there’s one habit that can transform your life, it’s practicing gratitude.

Gratitude shifts your focus from what’s missing to what’s already abundant in your life. This shift in energy opens the doors for even more blessings to flow in.

Start each morning by listing three things you’re grateful for, and watch how your day transforms. Gratitude isn’t just an emotion; it’s a magnet for miracles.

Dream Bigger, Together

As we embark on this journey into 2025, I want you to know that you are not alone. Whether you’re tuning into my podcast, joining energy clearing sessions, or taking part in my courses, I’m here to support you every step of the way.

This year, let’s commit to dreaming bigger, taking bolder actions, and stepping into the versions of ourselves that we know we’re meant to be. Let’s turn our dreams into reality and create lives filled with purpose and prosperity.

Here’s to a year of abundance, alignment, and breakthroughs. You’ve got this, and I’m here cheering you on every step of the way.

 

November Reflections: Wins, Lessons, and a Blueprint for December

Posted on by Gull Khan

November. What a month, right? It’s that in-between time—after the glow of October’s fall festivities but just before December’s whirlwind of holidays and New Year excitement. For many of us, November feels like a bridge. A time to pause, breathe, and—if we let it—reflect.

But here’s the thing: November isn’t just a warm-up act for December. It’s a stage all its own. It’s where subtle transformations happen, where seeds are planted, and where we start realizing just how far we’ve come this year.

As we stand at the edge of this month, let’s take a moment to look back—not just at the to-do lists or the goals met but at the journey. Because in every win, every stumble, and every quiet moment, there’s something worth celebrating.

1. Let’s Talk About Wins (Yes, Even the Small Ones)

When was the last time you truly celebrated yourself? And I don’t just mean the big stuff like promotions, milestones, or major breakthroughs. I’m talking about the little wins—the ones that don’t always get the applause they deserve.

For example:

  • Did you finally stick to a new habit, even for just a few days?
  • Did you have a hard conversation you’d been avoiding?
  • Did you allow yourself to rest without guilt, even if it was just for an afternoon?

These moments matter. They’re proof that progress is happening, even if it’s not flashy.

For me, November was a month of quiet wins. I stayed consistent in areas where I’ve struggled before. I made space for creativity. And most importantly, I practiced grace with myself on the days when things didn’t go as planned.

What about you? What’s one win—big or small—that you’re proud of this month?

2. Challenges: November’s Hidden Lessons

Now, let’s get real. November wasn’t all smooth sailing, was it? Challenges have a way of showing up when we least expect them. And while they’re rarely welcome, they almost always come with lessons we need to learn.

Here’s one thing November taught me: growth isn’t glamorous. It’s messy, uncomfortable, and often comes disguised as failure.

For instance, there were moments this month when I felt overwhelmed, like I was falling behind on everything. But those moments forced me to pause and ask myself:

  • Am I focusing on what truly matters?
  • Am I spreading myself too thin?
  • And most importantly, how can I approach this differently next time?

What about you? Did November throw any curveballs your way? Maybe it was a challenge at work, a strained relationship, or even just navigating your own inner critic. Whatever it was, take a moment to unpack the lesson it brought.

Because here’s the truth: challenges don’t define us. How we respond to them does.

3. Gratitude: The Ultimate Mindset Shift

If there’s one thing November is known for, it’s gratitude. But let’s move beyond the Pinterest-perfect gratitude lists and dive into something deeper.

Gratitude isn’t about pretending everything’s fine when it’s not. It’s about finding light, even in the darkest moments. It’s about noticing the little things—the laughter of a friend, the comfort of a warm drink, the fact that you woke up today with another chance to try again.

This month, I made a conscious effort to practice gratitude daily. And let me tell you, it’s a game-changer. When you focus on what you have rather than what you lack, your whole perspective shifts. Suddenly, challenges feel less daunting, and the future feels a little brighter.

So, let me ask you:

  • What’s one thing you’re deeply grateful for this month?
  • Who or what brought joy into your life, even in the smallest way?

Take a moment to reflect. Gratitude isn’t just a feel-good exercise—it’s a powerful tool for rewiring your mindset.

4. Looking Ahead: December with Purpose

And now, here we are. December is knocking at the door, bringing with it the promise of a fresh start. But before we dive into the holiday hustle, let’s set some intentions.

Ask yourself:

  • What do I want December to feel like? Not just what I want to do but how I want to experience it.
  • What’s one thing I can let go of to make space for what truly matters?
  • And how can I finish this year in alignment with the person I’m becoming?

For me, December will be a month of balance. It’s about honoring the progress I’ve made while setting the stage for an incredible 2025. It’s about being present with loved ones, prioritizing self-care, and focusing on quality over quantity.

But most importantly, it’s about remembering that the end of the year isn’t a race to the finish line. It’s a time to reflect, recharge, and realign.

Your November Reflection Blueprint

If you’re not sure where to start, here’s a simple exercise to close out the month:

  1. Celebrate Your Wins: Write down at least three things you’re proud of this month. They can be as big or small as you want—just make sure they matter to you.
  2. Acknowledge Your Challenges: What tested you this month? What lessons did those challenges bring? And how can you carry those lessons forward?
  3. Practice Gratitude: List five things you’re grateful for right now. Bonus points if you share them with someone—it amplifies the impact!
  4. Set December Intentions: What’s one thing you want to focus on next month? How can you make December feel purposeful, joyful, and aligned?

Let’s Reflect Together

Before we say goodbye to November, I’d love to hear from you:

  • What was your biggest win this month?
  • What lessons are you taking with you into December?
  • And what’s one intention you’re setting for the final 31 days of the year?

Drop your thoughts in the comments, and let’s finish this year strong, together.

Here’s to a November well-lived and a December filled with purpose. You’ve got this!
