176: Boundaries, Wealth, and Authenticity with Maria Tan

Do you ever feel like there’s something you want to do or say but then fight yourself, judge your thoughts, and end up going with the flow, even if it’s not your flow? This leads to an important question that came up in today’s episode… “what are you tolerating?”

Today, we’re talking with Business coach Maria Tan about embracing your natural self, setting boundaries to honor yourself, and building wealth by BEING yourself.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • Why Maria specialized on misfits
  • Money may not buy you happiness, but it buys you options
  • The intersection of boundary, wealth, and authenticity
  • Owning who you are and leaning into what makes you different
  • Focus on what you eat to release self-judgment
  • The importance of knowing exactly who you are and how you operate
  • Build wealth YOUR way
  • Shift the narrative around money from “make” to “receive”

 

Known as THE Business Coach for Misfits and the Creator of the “Manifest & Multiply” Money Map, Maria empowers non-conformists across the globe to embrace the magic of running your own business, and create success tailored to their lifestyles. Before coaching online, she was a cross-cultural business and communications consultant who worked with executives from all over the world and coached over 1,000 professionals. She’s seen in Forbes, Entrepreneur, HuffPost, Elephant Journal, Pick the Brain, and Addicted2Success and was the only Asian woman featured in The Money Code and How to Crack It, a book that debuted at #14 on Amazon US. Maria’s 1000+ clients range from side-hustlers to new entrepreneurs to seasoned entrepreneurs.

NOTEWORTHY QUOTES FROM THIS EPISODE

“Money may not buy you happiness, it buys you options. It gives you options. It gives you that freedom to say no, that freedom to say ‘Fuck you! I will do this.’”

“I feel like with a lot of misfits, if there is one block, it’s not people pleasing, it’s self-judgment.”

“Surrendering is not everything is smooth. It’s being nonjudgemental. It’s being unapologetic about who we are, what we want, what’s happening right now. And despite it all, we cannot be wrong. Meaning you cannot make yourself wrong, just because someone doesn’t agree with you.”

“When you’re scaling your business, when you’re doing anything, even with money, you need to know exactly who you are and how you operate. Otherwise, with any kind of limitation, you will feel stuck.”

“We know what to do, we just don’t do it.”
