• Why Your Money Mindset is Blocking Your Cash Flow with Pericles Rellas
    Mar 26 2025

    In this powerful episode of "Getting to the Bottom Line," I sit down with Money Mindset Expert Pericles Rellas to talk about the hidden beliefs and subconscious patterns that silently sabotage business success. With over 25 years of experience, Pericles has helped individuals and entrepreneurs reset their "financial thermostat"—the internal setting that dictates how much wealth we allow ourselves to earn, keep, and enjoy.

    We dive into the four-step process to clear financial blocks, what it means to truly be open to receiving money, and why more income doesn’t always equal less stress. Whether you're constantly feeling behind, breaking even, or not enjoying the wealth you’ve built, this conversation will give you fresh insights and practical tools to transform your relationship with money—personally and professionally.
