Ep 785 Money, Fear & Your Nervous System: What’s Really Controlling Your Income PART FOUR: FAWN RESPONSE

You’re doing everything right.

You’re reliable, supportive, and easy to work with. You care about people. You go above and beyond.

But when it comes to money and success… something isn’t adding up.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re giving more than you’re receiving, struggling to ask for more, or holding back your voice to keep the peace — this episode explains why.

The fawn response is one of the most overlooked patterns when it comes to money. It shows up as people-pleasing, overdelivering, avoiding conflict, and prioritizing being liked over being paid.

And it quietly caps your income, your growth, and your ability to fully step into your next level.

In this episode, I break down how the fawn response affects your financial decisions, your career or business, and your relationship with money — backed by psychology, nervous system science, and real-world patterns.

In this episode:

  • What the fawn response is and how it’s rooted in your nervous system and need for social safety
  • How people-pleasing behaviors directly impact your income and financial growth
  • The connection between self-worth, conflict avoidance, and money decisions
  • Why employees stay underpaid and entrepreneurs undercharge without realizing it
  • The psychology behind avoiding negotiation, selling, and advocating for yourself
  • How societal conditioning and fear of rejection influence your earning potential
  • The hidden ways you may be overgiving and under-receiving
  • Practical ways to start advocating for yourself and shifting your money patterns

If you’ve been overdelivering, undercharging, or staying quiet when you know you should speak up…

This episode will help you understand what’s actually driving those behaviors — and why it’s not a lack of confidence, discipline, or capability.

It’s a pattern. And once you see it clearly… you can change it.

Ep 813 Yes, You’re Having an Identity Crisis! (here’s what it all means)

Are you having an identity crisis… or are you finally becoming the person you’ve been praying for?

If you’ve been questioning everything lately, feeling disconnected from your old goals, struggling to make money the way you used to, or wondering why your business suddenly feels harder than ever… this episode is for you.

The truth is, you’re not confused. You’re not lazy. And you’re not losing your mind.

You’re in the middle of an identity shift.

In this episode, Tiffany Carter breaks down why so many entrepreneurs unknowingly resist becoming the very version of themselves that’s capable of creating the life, business, money, and freedom they want. Your subconscious brain is wired to protect your current identity—even when that identity is keeping you exhausted, overworking, undercharging, procrastinating, or playing small.

Tiffany explains what’s happening through the lens of neuroscience, psychology, subconscious programming, and identity transformation, so you can finally understand why this season feels so uncomfortable… and what to do instead.

If you’ve felt like you’re living between two versions of yourself, this conversation will help you stop fighting the process and start becoming the person your next level requires.
