I know it’s a small thing for most but I ran my first 5k today under 35 min and I am absolutely BUZZING. Couldn’t even hide my smile walking home lol, I see how people get addicted to this.

Will I ever get over my poverty mindset?

I grew up very poor. I get extreme anxiety and shame when I spend money above $20. Deep down I feel like I should scrounge and save every penny. I use bath towels that are 10 years old and threadbare cause I can't bring myself to buy a "luxury item" despite making oodles of money and have a ton saved and invested.

Anyone else get over this?

I find one of my clients breathtakingly gorgeous. I'm married so would never act on it, but it's noticeable enough to impact my behavior. I.e. this person doesn't have a ton of budget to spend with me, but I find myself going out of my way to help them because just wow
