The numbers are context.
We can talk about the real money situation so the work is grounded. But I am not building an investment plan, tax strategy, debt plan or product recommendation.
PRIVATE EMOTIONAL-MONEY COACHING FOR WOMEN READY TOGO UNDERNEATH THE NUMBERS — NOT JUST MANAGE THEM
The numbersaren’t thewhole problem.
That’s why knowing better hasn’t changed it.
Money, Steady is a four-week private emotional-money coaching experience for women who know what they “should” do with money but keep getting hijacked by fear, guilt, overworking, avoidance or never-enough. We are not building you a financial plan. We are finding the pattern underneath the decision, testing a different response in real life, and building one you can actually repeat.
4 private sessions + personalized between-session work + weekly feedback. Not financial planning. Not therapy.

WHY THIS IS DIFFERENT
Financial planning helps you decide what to do with your money.
Money, Steady works on what happens when you try to do it.
You can have the right spreadsheet and still freeze, overwork, underpay yourself, hoard cash, avoid the conversation or move the goalpost the second you reach it. That is the layer Money, Steady works on.
The pattern is the work.
We look at the beliefs, family rules, identity, fear, guilt, safety and success stories underneath the behavior you keep repeating.
Real life is the lab.
Each week you test one specific move in an actual money moment. I review what happened, reflect back what I see and help you adjust before the next session.
Financial planning solves for the numbers. Money, Steady helps you change the emotional pattern that keeps overriding what you already know.
WHEN KNOWING BETTER ISN’T THE PROBLEM
You probably don’t need more money information if…
THE PROBLEM ISN’T KNOWLEDGE.
IT’S WHAT HAPPENS IN THE MOMENT.
You can read the books, know the advice, build the spreadsheet, even work with a financial professional, and still watch the same charged decision come back. Money, Steady is for that gap: the moment you know what makes sense and something underneath you takes over anyway.
I know what I’m supposed to do. I still can’t make myself feel safe doing it.
My business makes money, but taking more for myself brings up everything.
I reach a new level and immediately become terrified I can’t maintain it.
I keep calling it a money problem when I know something deeper is running the show.
I’m capable everywhere else. Why does money make me feel twelve years old?
I’ve outgrown the old rules. I just don’t know what replaces them.
WHAT I MEAN BY “A MONEY PATTERN”
It rarely looks like “I’m bad with money.” It looks more like this.
Usually the numbers are only half the story. The pattern shows up in the gap between what you know, what you want, and what you can actually let yourself do.
Your business can pay you more. You still can’t make yourself take it.
You run the numbers. The money is there. But paying yourself more feels reckless, selfish, or like the second you trust the business, something will go wrong.
That is not a math problem. That is a safety + permission pattern.You spend money because, for a minute, it changes how you feel.
You may be carrying debt. You may earn more than you used to. You may have cut things out a dozen times. But when you are stressed, depleted, bored, lonely or desperate for relief, spending still does something for you.
Making more or getting stricter doesn’t automatically change a relief + reward pattern.You hit the number. It immediately stops feeling like enough.
The goal moves. The relief lasts a day. A good month becomes the new minimum. Instead of feeling safer, you become more afraid of losing what you built.
That is not a goal-setting problem. That is an enough + identity pattern.You know what you need to say until money enters the conversation.
You overexplain the price, soften the ask, avoid the conversation with your partner, stay quiet in a negotiation or talk yourself out of the boundary before anyone else can.
That can be a conflict + approval pattern.Money, Steady is where we stop treating these moments like random personal failures and start working with the pattern that keeps producing them.
WHAT HAPPENS EVERY WEEK
The sessions matter. The week between them is where the pattern gives itself away.
We use the call to see the pattern clearly. Then you catch it in a real money moment, try one specific change, and bring back evidence instead of another theory about yourself.
01We name the pattern.
We get specific about the trigger, story, body response and behavior, not just “I have money issues.”
02You test one move.
You try one targeted experiment in real life: a boundary, ask, payment, price, pause, conversation or decision.
03I review what happened.
I connect the dots in personal weekly feedback: what I notice, what matters and what I want you to try next.
04We make it repeatable.
We use the evidence to build a steadier response you can return to the next time the same money moment shows up.
SHANNAH’S PROPRIETARY PROCESS
The Money Steady Method.
This is the deeper process underneath our four weeks. We do not jump from “I know this pattern” to “I should stop.” We identify the rule, understand what it protects, test a different move in real life, and turn what works into your own repeatable response.
01
Expose the rule
We identify the invisible rule underneath the current problem: what you believe you must earn, prove, prevent, tolerate or carry.
YOUR MONEY PATTERN MAP02
Find what it’s protecting
We uncover what the pattern is trying to protect you from: uncertainty, guilt, conflict, judgment, failure, being seen as irresponsible or something else entirely.
YOUR TRIGGER + PROTECTION MAP03
Test a different move
You try a different response in a real situation: a conversation, boundary, price, payment, ask, pause or decision designed around your actual pattern.
ONE REAL-LIFE EXPERIMENT04
Build your steady response
We turn the evidence into personal rules, language and a repeatable response you can use the next time money gets loud.

Which door did the pattern walk through?
THE BUSINESS DOOR
Your business works.
But it still doesn’t work for you.
- You pay yourself, but it doesn’t cover the life you need it to.
- You’re scared to take more, even when the business can afford it.
- You’ve hit capacity and every growth idea requires more of you.
- Pricing, selling or setting a boundary feels weirdly personal.
THE MIDLIFE DOOR
You’ve done a lot.
Why don’t you feel further along?
- You earn more than before, but safety still feels temporary.
- Career, caregiving or partnership decisions keep activating money fear.
- You’re questioning what you actually want now.
- You’re tired of turning every uncertain chapter into proof you failed.
The surface problem may be business, career, spending, earning, caregiving or “I should be further along.” The work is finding the emotional rule underneath it and changing what you do when that rule gets activated.
THE PRIVATE CONTAINER
What you get for the four weeks
The value is not four isolated calls. It is a full month of private coaching, tailored experiments and my eyes on the pattern while it is actually happening.
The work keeps moving between sessions.
You leave each call with one focused thing to notice or try. I review what happened and send personal weekly feedback so we are not starting from zero on the next call.

WHY THIS WORK WITH ME?
I understand the numbers. I’m interested in what happens underneath them.
That distinction matters: I can understand the financial context without turning every money struggle into a spreadsheet problem.
I’m Shannah Game, a CFP®, Certified Trauma of Money Specialist, MBA, author and lifelong entrepreneur. I’ve spent more than 20 years working with women and women business owners, and ten years hosting a money podcast that reached 28 million downloads before I sold it. That background lets me understand the financial context without turning this into financial planning.
My work focuses on the behavior underneath money: the fear, guilt, identity, old rules and protective patterns that can keep making the decision even when you know better.

QUESTIONS YOUR BRAIN IS ALREADY ASKING
Let’s not make you wonder.
Is this financial planning?+
No. I am a CFP®, so I understand the financial context, but Money, Steady is not a financial-planning engagement. I will not build a budget, investment plan, tax strategy, debt plan or recommend financial products. We work on the beliefs, behaviors, stories, identity, emotional rules and protective patterns underneath the money decision.
Is this therapy?+
No. Money, Steady is trauma-aware emotional-money coaching and education, not mental-health treatment. We may talk about family money messages, fear, guilt, safety and identity, but the focus is the current money pattern and what you do with it in real life. It can complement therapy, but it does not replace it.
Do I need to own a business?+
No. Business owners often bring pay, pricing, capacity and success-related patterns. Other women bring earning, spending, caregiving, career, partnership, safety or “I should be further along” patterns. The method works underneath either version.
What do I actually bring to the sessions?+
Bring the money situation that keeps getting charged: taking more from the business, asking for more, spending, saving, pricing, a career decision, a conversation with a partner, fear after a good month, feeling behind, or the thing you keep avoiding. You do not need a perfectly organized financial life or a neat explanation. We start with the moment that keeps repeating.
What if my situation is complicated?+
That is usually why private work helps. You do not need to make your story simple before we begin. If your needs fall outside emotional-money coaching, I’ll tell you honestly and help you identify the kind of support that fits better.
Why only six spots a month?+
Because this is not a session-only offer. I review your reflections, choose and adapt the between-session work, notice the patterns across the month and record personal weekly feedback. Six keeps the work truly private and high-touch.
What if I want to keep working together after the four weeks?+
You can. Money, Steady is designed to be a focused four-week container, not an endless commitment. If you want continued support after you complete the month, Money, Steady graduates can continue with individual weekly sessions at a reduced alumni rate, subject to availability. Before the four weeks end, we’ll talk about whether continued work would actually be useful for you.
YOU DO NOT NEED TO FIX YOUR ENTIRE LIFE IN FOUR WEEKS.
You do not need one more rule for how to be better with money. You need a different response when the old rule takes over.
