1187 | The $100 Meditation

Behavior Gap Radio

In this episode of Behavior Gap Radio, Carl delves into the transformative exercise he calls the "$100 Bill Meditation," inspired by his guest Johnny Miller and a retreat in Bali. Carl challenges listeners to reframe their relationship with money by imagining it as a person—someone who has heard every hope, frustration, and expectation we’ve projected onto it. Through guided journaling, he encourages us to describe what money truly represents and, in a thought-provoking twist, to ask: If money could speak, what would it say to us? This meditation invites a deeper understanding of money as both a tool and a mirror of our own stories.
