Waking Up Wealthy with Isha Vela

I used to drool at the thought of becoming a professional philanthropist.
I pictured myself donating my time, wads of money, energy funding women's businesses and ecological projects all around the world. 
That image in my head felt like the peak experience, like if I could achieve that it would mean I'd arrived.
But when I started studying matriarchal economics and specifically wealth distribution models, I had to rethink some things.
Because philanthropy is the dominant model of redistribution inside the current economy and it is structurally designed to leave the power differential intact.
In this podcast episode I dive into the four categories of redistribution that get collapsed under philanthropy, and each one's role in moving us from the control of the triangle (where power is concentrated at the top) to circle (where power is distributed through relationships).
In just under 30 minutes, you'll understand how to balance your redistribution portfolio along with 4 steps to putting it in action in ways that distribute power.

The energy that drives the matriarchal economy is GENEROSITY.
Not performative, one-off donation kind of generosity that happens once a blue moon when the spirit moves you. 
I'm talking about the structural, consistent, normalized assumptive generosity of a woman who moves money through community.
And internalized scarcity is what stops generosity cold.
It doesn't matter how aligned your values are. 
It doesn't matter how much you believe in the matriarchal economy.
If your internal ecosystem is running a scarcity program underneath all of that belief, you won't circulate consistently. 
You will hoard in ways that feel like a responsible choice. 
You will give sporadically, not necessarily from guilt but maybe sometimes, and then contract. 
You will keep waiting for when you have more to begin giving consistently.
Dissolving internalized scarcity is the real work at the foundation of a matriarchal economy.
And in this episode, I share the 4 practices that've helped me break the cycle of scarcity in my lineage.
Before there was a framework, these practices planted the seeds of everything I now teach about ecological wealth.

What would you do if you lost a parent and suddenly inherited a massive amount of money?
What feelings might it bring up for you?
Who do you talk about it with?
OR: what if you were a recipient of the Great Wealth Transfer, where $34 trillion in investable assets are moving into women's hands by the end of this decade?
Even though many people say they would love to be in that position, it does come with its unique challenges.
Marina Pearson knows exactly what those challenges are. 
Having walked the path of inheriting wealth herself over the past 15 years and having worked with women from all over the world, she deeply understands the often-unspoken emotional and identity challenges that can accompany it. 
And this is something the wealth industry completely misses.
Marina is the founder of Unshackled Wealth™, an investor, author, speaker, guide, and host of the She Who Inherits podcast. 
Today, she helps female inheritors move from survival, uncertainty, into sovereignty, self-trust, and aligned wealth stewardship, so they can lead their wealth, and their lives with confidence and purpose.
Once you listen to this conversation, you will leave with a deeper appreciation of how powerful inherited scarcity can be, and the specific factors required to shift into stewardship.

One thing that's become increasingly clear to me over the last several weeks is that some aspects of creating a matriarchal economy are a CHOICE. 
And that by making these choices on the daily we can create the matriarchal economy.
I know that sounds too simple, but it's not.
Look, I have no doubt that exiting the matrix will absolutely involve a fight in some ways.
We will have to fight to protect nature, to protect women and children from harm and exploitation. 
This is where having money and other resources will matter the most. 
But right now I just want to focus on the parts that are a CHOICE. 
Focusing on what you can control.
In this episode, I outline the 6 principles of matriarchal financial ecology with examples of how you can move money in ways that make the patriarchy OBSOLETE.

I sat down with Wren Farris (Season 6, Episode 2) to talk about money mistakes. 
Money mistakes can mean LOTS of things, like not separating your personal and business expenses, underpricing your services, not setting aside money for taxes. 
I thought that was the conversation we're having, but something completely unexpected came up, and you can detect the exact moment it occurred.
When we actually dropped in and started talking, we landed on a HUGE money leak for women, especially.
This cost of this mistake is so much more than money, so do your heart a favor and tune in.
