Have you ever told yourself or been told by someone else to “work on your scarcity mindset?”

I recently read an article featured in Behavioral Scientist that blew my mind and completely invalidated the idea of a “scarcity mindset.” It provides a much more nuanced take on this concept, and perfectly demonstrates why it’s gaslighting and doesn’t actually equalize the economic and cognitive playing field.

Join me on this episode as I debunk the idea of a “scarcity mindset” and illuminate the truth about the cognitive burden of living in a scarce reality. I’m sharing the science behind our cognition when we’re dealing with scarce resources, and what’s truly required for more people to be able to access an abundance mindset.

I took the best of my episodes and created a whole damn workbook around them: The Simone Starter Pack. It’s the ultimate marketing cheat sheet. What are you waiting for? Grab it now!
