Welcome to FMBI podcast. I'm your host, Dr. Deb. Today I want to talk to about money, money won't heal your broken spots. That bad thing that happened to you when you were a child, it's not going away when you have money, it still happened. All the wonderful things that happen to you are not going away, it still happened to and the fact that you had an awesome dad or a horrible dad is not going to change. The fact is that whether you're rich, or whether you're poor, those experiences still happen to you. And they're still with you today. The fact that you had a mentor or coach that changed your life is not going to change one iota by the amount of money that you get in your business and in your life. All of that just gets expanded, whatever you've got, gets expanded. Money can buy a house, but it can't buy a home. It can buy a bed, but not sleep. Money can buy a clock but not time. Money can buy a book, but not knowledge. Money can buy food, but not an appetite. It can buy your friends but not love.

You know, if the people hanging around, you are only hanging around you because you give them money, you don't have friends, it's just prostitution. You're buying everything. And that's not real. Money can't do any of this. But it can take care of your family. And you need money to get some things right like to put food on your table to put equipment in your business, to have employees help you in your office. But it won't make them stay. And it won't make them work hard for you. It won't make you more money. What happens when we give so much of our team, family community clients or patients is that we get empty. And it's our responsibility to take care of ourselves first. In order for us to continue to pour into our clients,
