An Extra $10K This November Starts With Who You're Being

There was a version of me who thought a $10,000 month was the be-all and end-all. I was a teacher in Canada, paying into taxes, a pension, and benefits, and I took home very little of my actual salary. When I went out on my own in 2016, that elusive $10K month was the dream. It took until June of 2020 to hit my first one. So when I say I want you to bring in an extra $10,000 this November, I say it with love and with some history.

If $10K is beyond where you are right now, great, let's make it your first. If you are already well past it, apply it as an extra. At 25K, let's talk about 35K. I am all about expansion here.

Why November Is the Month to Make Extra Money, Not Coast

November and December can be big sales months for a lot of businesses. They are also the months I watch a lot of people start coasting. They did not hit their goals, there are only eight weeks left, so they decide to start fresh in January.

I want you to do the opposite. I want you to finish 2026 as strong as the person you planned to be when you mapped this year out. And I want you to get specific about what an extra $10,000 would do for you. Maybe it pays off credit card debt so you walk into 2027 lighter. Maybe it gives you a holiday season where you feel generous and at ease every time you tap your card. Maybe it covers December so you can truly rest with your family, or it funds a January that starts with momentum.

Vague orders get vague results. If I walk into a coffee shop and ask for "a drink," anything could come back. If I ask for a grande iced matcha latte made the old way with water and half the sweetener, that is exactly what I get. Place your money order the same way. Picture logging into your online banking on November 30th, seeing your usual monthly number plus an extra $10,000, and notice how it feels. Lightness? Safety? Pride? That feeling is your frequency, so hold onto it.

Is Your Income Plateau a Strategy Problem or a Mindset Problem?

Look back at the last five or six months. If your income has plateaued, not really going up and not really going down, what is your honest answer as to why? Is it a strategy problem? Is it a "you" problem, something in the beliefs you hold around money? Is it an identity problem, where you do not yet know how to manage or hold the extra?

Then ask yourself what you would have to believe about yourself to generate an extra 10K this month. It does not matter whether you are a coach, an author, a speaker, a COO, a network marketer, or you run a brick and mortar. This is about who you are, not what you sell. Notice the story that tells you it would take working yourself to the bone. Money is not tied to work. If it were, teachers, nurses, and doctors would be the highest paid people on the planet. Money does not care how many hours you put in. Money is a match for your energy.

Here is the question underneath all of it: who are you going to become? I have coached so many women who are afraid of making more money. Behind that fear is often the real one, being afraid of out-earning a spouse, a parent, or the friend group, or of seeming egotistical or materialistic. If that lands, that is great. That is intel showing you exactly where the work is.

Stop Hiding in Execution Mode: Mindset First Business Growth

This is the pattern that truly frustrates me, and I say that with so much love. I tell people to go make a mind movie, script, journal, meditate, or get out in nature. And what happens? They go straight back into doing. Another post. Another funnel tweak. Another system. Polishing something that is already polished, and telling themselves that will be the thing that gets them to 10K.

It is not. Everyone I know who has built a multiple seven-figure business believes in mindset and energetic work first. If you want to change your financial situation this month, you have to change how you spend your days. Plant the seed, water it daily, and trust the timing. There is no timeline on manifestation. Sometimes it is fast, and sometimes the seed needs nurturing.

Who you are being is so much more powerful than what you are doing. Before I record a solo episode, I meditate and visualize first, because I do not show up as a podcast host with thousands of downloads without being her first. When you focus on who you are being, whether that is grounded, intentional, magnetic, or abundant, you can ask what she does differently. She spends time on herself every single day. And she writes the email sequence from a completely different energy.

How to Raise Your Money Frequency Before You Sell

Check the intention behind your $10K. If you say "I need to make more" and it feels gripping, needy, or controlling in your body, people feel that, and they back away. If you can say it and it feels airy, light, and joyful, you are calling clients in to make a difference, and money becomes the byproduct.

A girlfriend of mine told me that after feeling her most abundant in a long time, with bills covered and extra money set aside, she "manifested" a large vet bill. She said it felt like part of her did not feel safe with the extra money. That happens on a subconscious level. If you have only ever been used to enough, overflow can leave as fast as it arrived unless you do the re-patterning.

I also think about my friend Christina Barthold, who posted one story: a one-day mastermind on a yacht in Toronto, $1,000, 20 women. With flights, the Ritz-Carlton, and the travel days, it was about a $5,000 trip for one afternoon, and my whole body lit up. I did not know who would be there or what we would mastermind about. Her excitement and confidence sold me. She sold out 20 spots without a campaign. That is what happens when your magnetism is in front of the offer.

I had the same experience flying home from Ontario this past weekend. I told Kaila I would sell out our Christmas Visionary dinner before we landed. I sent about ten personal messages, the first six people responded, and the dinner was full. People want to join when they are certain you are certain.
