Publisher's summary

When it comes to money, are you controlled by fear? Do you underestimate your worth? Are you ready to go to the next level, but can't seem to get there? If you answered yes to any of these questions, you may be an underearner. Underearners are self-saboteurs who don't live up to their earnings potential, says Barbara Stanny, a financial educator, motivational speaker, and career counselor. Whether they make $10 an hour or six figures a year, they tend to live paycheck to paycheck, are often in debt, and have a high tolerance for low pay. Ironically, many work incredibly hard.

The good news is that underearning is a self-imposed condition. By focusing on overcoming it, underearners will not only earn what they deserve, but live a richer life. With techniques and exercises that have helped thousands of people, Stanny teaches five essential steps to financial independence and brings a message of empowerment to all those who chronically undervalue themselves.

Helpful and positive affirmations and encouragement

I enjoyed it - but it needs updating to be up to date with internet and apps used for finance and also to recognize new markets and extraordinary volatility in all. Most people don’t really do paper checking much anymore…

So much wisdom

Some books you read and refer to multiple times, and this is one of those books. So glad I started listening and will definitely be listening again.

Great book for money mindset issues!

I loved this book! Great examples of how to identify if you’re an under earner and to help you overcome it. A great supplement to Secrets of Six Figure Women!

The money education every woman needs

As a 46 year old, woman who has been slow to learning about managing my money, this book has created a new outlook. I am using multiple different educational tools at the moment to change the way I spend and save for the future. This book gives you the exercises you need to understand your money patterns and change them. I’m also reading David Ramsey‘s Total Money Makeover and taking Kate Northrop’s Relaxed Money program. Hitting it from all angles and it’s going to stick this time!! I highly recommend this book for taking a deep dive into your beliefs about money and giving them a totally new perspective.

Practical, engaging, useful

Overcoming Under-earning is full of great exercises to reflect deeply and with compassion on one's own choices around money. Clear steps are laid out to move in a positive financial direction, while gaining life - long useful knowledge, in a pleasurable way. I can now spend in alignment with my values, save, and make more money. I used to think finance books had to be dry and over my head. No longer, thank you. Recommend.
