Scarcity isn’t just about your bank account—it’s about your beliefs.
When we live in scarcity, we’re telling ourselves there won’t be enough—of time, love, safety, or opportunity. It’s a nervous system pattern that whispers, “you can’t trust life to provide.”
Scarcity encourages us to demand external safety to create internal safety, rather than cultivating internal safety in response to an external world that’s mostly unsafe.
Here’s what it can look like:
1️⃣ Holding onto physical things “just in case.”
🌿 Self-trust says: if you found it once, you’ll find it again.
2️⃣ Overbooking your schedule because rest feels unsafe.
🌿 Self-trust says: Rest IS productive, it recharges, reinvigorates and allows me to continue.
3️⃣ Saying yes when you mean no, for fear of rejection or others being upset.
🌿 Self-trust says: my boundaries protect my peace and healthy people don’t reject me for having healthy boundaries
4️⃣ Hoarding ideas, clients, or time because you believe you’re valued for these accomplishments
🌿 Self-trust says: My worth is tied to who I am, not what I do.
5️⃣ Clinging to relationships out of fear of being alone.
🌿 Self-trust says: I am whole on my own.
Healing scarcity begins with rebuilding internal safety in response to an unsafe world.
