Today's guest, Cindy, discusses why budgeting fails when your identity hasn’t caught up, how your nervous system responds to money (and how to regulate it), the difference between attracting money and actually maintaining it, and the small daily identity upgrades that create the biggest financial payoff. If you’ve ever wondered why budgeting hasn’t fixed the deeper issues or why old money patterns keep resurfacing, this conversation will make everything finally click.
Cindy Koehler is a transformational coach, money identity expert, and forthcoming author of Manifest YOU.
She works with high achievers earning well over six figures who nevertheless feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from financial stability.
Cindy helps high achievers understand why money can feel stressful, inconsistent, or harder than it should be — even when everything looks successful on paper.
Trained in the Robbins Research money frameworks, Cindy teaches everyday habits that help people shift out of their old identity and step into the version of themselves who can confidently hold and grow wealth.
Cindy’s own breakdowns and breakthroughs make her teaching relatable, honest, and surprisingly funny — offering clarity without the “woo.”
She simplifies the connection between financial behavior and subconscious identity so listeners feel understood, not lectured.
Cindy blends mindset, identity work, and neuroscience to explain why wealth doesn’t shift until you do. Her approach is practical, grounded, and refreshingly human.
