Jill Wesley had the expertise to build a powerful business. She has 25 years experience working with tech firms and nonprofits as a corporate trainer and executive coach.
She recognized the need for a special kind of consultant to help people who truly want to affect change. Jill helps change-makers design offers and programs for corporate clients so they can reach as many people as possible.
Overcoming A Mindset
While her niche was unique, and her personal experience more than qualified her to fill the need, Jill had a moneyblock stopping her from growing her business.
Her challenges were overcoming concerns about earning large sums of money and truly understanding the concept of Financial Freedom. Because she is already in a career she loves, she has no problem working until retirement age.
She wants to continue working, so there didn’t seem to be a reason to pursue Financial Freedom. To her, it seemed greedy to build a company that brought in large amounts of revenue when she already had a fulfilling business and career.

Jill said, “My concerns were, what’s wrong with working for a long time if you enjoy the work that you’re doing and you’re helping other people, and my other concern, my other block, was on some level is it really selfish to want to build a multi-million dollar company?”
Financial Freedom Means Jill Can Do More Of What She Loves
That all changed when she met Dr. Tony at a business training event they both attended. The two connected, and Tony started 1-on-1 coaching with Jill, working through MindShift.money’s Cash Flow Cure program.
During their coaching sessions, her MindShift moment came when Dr. Tony explained that going after significant revenue in her business wasn’t in any way selfish. Instead, it would give her the Freedom to help people even more than she already does.
“All your decisions are made from having to earn money,” Jill said, “Even if you’re doing things you enjoy, you don’t have true freedom until you’re able to separate generating money from making decisions around how you live and what you do with work.”
Making Decisions From A Place Of Freedom
By determining her Freedom Number, creating her Freedom Generator, and beginning her journey toward Financial Freedom, Jill will eventually be able to make decisions from a place of Freedom.
She’ll no longer be in a position of having to earn money. And she can turn down projects that don’t bring her joy while still helping people. The difference is that she’ll be able to do that without having financial concerns. Financial Freedom will mean she can serve and give instead of constantly having to make sure she has enough revenue to keep her business and lifestyle viable.
“Working towards the Freedom Number allows me to reframe things and know that I can help as many or even more people if I’m unencumbered by having to earn a certain amount of money,” Jill said. “The Freedom Number allows me to truly show up and serve from a place of giving and not worrying about taking other projects that may not be as enjoyable or may not be the best use of my time.”
Jill worked with Dr. Tony to go through the Cash Flow Cure exercises. She completed the Money Planner to determine her Freedom Number based on her current and future lifestyles. Now she’s reshaping her business to help her achieve her Financial Freedom and meet her goal of impacting her world for good.
