Episode #397: Money Mindset Reset with Chelsey Corea

You've told yourself it's greedy to want more money. That you should just be grateful for what you have. That people with wealth are selfish — and you refuse to be one of them.

But what if that belief — the one you thought was keeping you humble — is actually keeping you stuck? In this episode, Lianne Kim sits down with Chelsea Corea, CEO and Design Lead of EBO Design, who spent years quietly sabotaging her own success. She undercharged. She waited for sales before spending. She told herself wanting more money was shameful — a belief quietly passed down from the adults in her life, from church pews and dinner tables, absorbed long before she ever owned a business.

It wasn't until Chelsea started naming the belief — and doing the work to dismantle it — that everything changed. She raised her prices. She hired her first outside team member. And when a family tragedy hit, she had the support in place to take a week off without her business falling apart. This episode is for every woman who has ever felt guilty for wanting more. Because wanting more isn't greedy. It's actually the most selfless thing you can do.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

• Why the belief that 'wanting money is greedy' is one of the most harmful things holding women back in business.
• How childhood money messages silently shape adult behavior — and how to finally spot yours
• The real-world behaviors that reveal your hidden money blocks (hint: are you always waiting for the sale?).
• Simple daily practices — affirmations, gratitude, visualizations — that actually rewire how you think about money.
• Why charging more isn't about greed — it's about building a life and business that truly serves your family and community.
