How to Get Out of Scarcity Mindset (Even When the World Feels Uncertain)

Scarcity mindset doesn’t mean you’re doing it wrong.

It means you’re sensitive. You’re tuned in. You care.

But it also means you need tools to come back to your center - especially when the world feels chaotic.

So here is exactly what I do (and teach) when scarcity thinking creeps in.

Step 1: Notice the Drift

Scarcity mindset rarely shows up in big dramatic ways. It sneaks in.

You start refreshing the news a little too often.
You hear your partner say “we can’t afford that” one too many times.
You get annoyed by a squeaky chair or feel like everything’s suddenly broken or hard.

The good news? The moment you notice it, you can shift it.

Step 2: Check the Facts (Not the Feelings)

Before you panic, check your bank account.

Look at your income tracker.

Review what’s come in this month - not just money, but value (gifts, coffees, opportunities, help).

Scarcity often makes us forget everything good that’s already here.

Are you actually in trouble - or just temporarily triggered?

Step 3: Adjust Your Inputs

If you’re watching the news before bed and waking up anxious - stop.

  • Unsubscribe from scary podcasts
     
  • Avoid doom-scrolling
     
  • Follow creators and accounts that uplift you (even dog videos count!)
     
  • Watch one uplifting show after anything intense

You’re not ignoring the world. You’re protecting your nervous system so you can do your work in the world.

Step 4: Protect Your Bubble (Especially from Loved Ones)

If your partner, family, or friends talk about money with fear, it’s okay to:

  • Gently ask for different language (“That makes me feel scared.”)
  • Use funny mantras like “Lucky we’re rich!” as pattern interrupters
  • Limit time with people who drain you - especially during launches or creative seasons
  • Share your own money mindset work without needing to convince anyone

You don’t need everyone to get it. Just you.

Step 5: Rebuild Your Abundant Anchors

Scarcity mindset shrinks your world. It makes you forget what’s possible.

So start adding in daily reminders:

 💛 Upgrade small things: your mug, underwear, chair
📱 Put affirmations on every screen
🎧 Listen to high-vibe music, meditations, or your own affirmations
🧘‍♀️ Join a community like Money Bootcamp to stay anchored
📅 Book regular check-ins with coaches, masterminds, or inspiring friends

You don’t have to do it all perfectly. You just need to come back - again and again.
