While working with professionals looking to make a change in their careers, or simply take better control over their lives, she noticed a recurring weak spot among otherwise intelligent, capable people: money.
"For some reason or another," she explains, "these clients aren't as mindful or deliberate as they'd like to be. Some are business owners, lawyers, or in education."

"A belief is a thought you think over and over again," she says. "And then that belief gets buried in your subconscious, and causes an emotion - anything from contentment to fear - which then causes you to take action and produce some sort of result. That's the chain: emotion, action, result."
If these core beliefs are self-sabotaging, you can imagine how that chain progresses.
Here, Walls shares some of the more damaging financial thought patterns she's observed in her practice, among the most impressive professionals.
