Children die. Sometimes we don\u2019t plan (because, HELLO, we\u2019re AFRAID!) and we owe overwhelming amounts to the IRS. Businesses fail. Relationships end. We get sick, and eventually we all die (that one is unavoidable).<\/p>\n<p>Those things are\u00a0<strong>painful, devastating, and sometimes life-altering.<\/strong>\u00a0But there\u2019s only so much any of us can do to stop them, and being afraid isn\u2019t one of them.<\/p>\n<h4>As a matter of fact, fear makes it all worse.<\/h4>\n<p><strong>Fear shuts down your connection to your intuition.<\/strong>\u00a0It creates barriers between you and other people. It stops you from connecting to your inner self and honoring and taking care of yourself.<\/p>\n<p>It keeps you pushing harder and harder, being more and more vigilant, and then feeling not only afraid, but\u00a0<strong>overwhelmed, exhausted, and out of control.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>All of this other stuff \u2013 bills, income, the IRS, whether or not I offend someone with my\u00a0<a title=\"When \u201cI can\u2019t afford it\u201d is B.S.

My children. My family and friends. Love. The fact that what I have learned in my crazy life and what I KNOW in my soul to be true may actually help someone. Staying in faith.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Faith means I live in my truth.<\/strong>\u00a0I do what I feel is the right thing to do with the things I can control. I pay attention to my money, even if there \u201cisn\u2019t enough\u201d in the moment. I file and pay my taxes. Not because I\u2019m afraid (and trust me \u2013 I have a healthy respect for the IRS!), but because it needs to be done. And NOT having it done is a weight I\u2019m not willing to carry around!<\/p>\n<p><strong>It is what it is, and being afraid isn\u2019t going to change it.<\/strong>\u00a0Taking control does. I trust that, as long as I stay in my truth, I\u2019m doing what I can do. Whatever happens after that,\u00a0<strong>I will handle it as it comes.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h4>That\u2019s really all any of us can do.<\/h4>\n<p>The rest of those things \u2013 active shooters, random violence, the economy, the government \u2013 aren\u2019t in my control. I choose to give my energy to my Important Things list instead.<\/p>\n<p>What about the fears around those Important Things?

She&#8217;s passionate about helping people who think &#8220;I&#8217;m just not a money person&#8221; go from stressed, anxious, and unsure, to calm, confident, and happy, with their money, and their lives.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Emily Zillig helps people make, manage, and multiply their money \u2013 even if\u00a0<em>they\u2019ve never balanced a checkbook.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>She\u2019s passionate about changing the way people relate to their money, so they can leave the emotions behind and get clear, confident, and in control. Her mission? A world with no money stress \u2013\u00a0<strong>less crime, less violence, more giving, and more happiness<\/strong>. Cheesy maybe, but a girl\u2019s gotta have a vision!<\/p>\n<p>After\u00a0<strong>managing millions of dollars for the Federal government<\/strong>, patrolling the streets as a police officer, almost drowning in her own (very embarrassing) personal financial tsunami, and then creating a business working with people on their personal and business finances, Emily has learned a thing or two about the psychology of money. She spent years watching how money affects people \u2013 from\u00a0<strong>multi-millionaires with mansions and yachts<\/strong>\u00a0to\u00a0<strong>homeless drug addicts\u00a0<\/strong>who couldn\u2019t afford food, but could somehow find over\u00a0<em>$100,000 per year<\/em>\u00a0for drugs.<\/p>\n<p>Combining her psychology background, her personal path, and the inspiring experiences of her clients, she developed The Mind, Body, and Spirit of Money to give a step-by-step guide to other successful people who are ready to stop avoiding and start living.<\/p>\n<p><strong>She also loves to rock climb,<\/strong>\u00a0play four-square with her two kids, and watch the Bachelor.
