This week’s question from my portal “The Neagle Code: Directions for Life” comes from Corrine. 

Neagle Code Question

Hi David,

What’s the best way to push through and overcome childhood money trauma related to abuse?

Neagle Code Answer

Thanks for this question.

Well, I think that the problem that you’re facing is that you’ve attached money as the cause of the abuse you’ve experienced and it’s not the cause of what you experienced.

It’s the disorder of whoever it was that was abusive in your life.

I’m sure money played a role, but it’s not the cause.

You need to start to disassociate from the idea that money is a cause of anything, because it really is not.

The money doesn’t cause anyone to be violent or abusive.

Abuse is a legacy. The people that were abusive to you or around you were abused in their childhood. Abuse never starts first generation, and money has nothing to do with it. You need to remove that from your mind.

Very often children that are in abusive households will attach blame to something that’s safe for them… meaning that money would probably be something they could attach blame to because it wasn’t safe to blame the abuser.

So the first step in solving your problem is to see the truth in your situation and know that money was NOT responsible.

P.S. Whenever you’re ready… here are 3 ways I can help you grow YOUR business:

You’re taking action. You’ve invested in programs, attended seminars. And yet you’re not breaking through. Good months are followed by setbacks, and the momentum you know is possible never quite sticks.

At this stage, plateau isn’t caused by lack of knowledge. It’s caused by hidden patterns—fear, resistance, outdated self-image—that quietly sabotage your decisions, your sales, and your leadership.
