The Way of the Wealthy Woman Journal: Inspiration, Practices, & Wisdom to Activate Abundance, by Taylor Eaton
Muse Oracle Press, 0645885088, 200 pages, November 2024

The Way of the Wealthy Woman Journal by Taylor Eaton is a wonderful resource designed to guide women on their journey to financial abundance and personal growth. The hardcover and golden gilded edges of this beautifully crafted journal bring the feeling of luxury and opulence into one’s creative space. Within these pages, it becomes possible to connect with your financial hopes and wishes, heal past money wounds, and step into the full radiance of wealth.

While one can work with the journal by itself, it is intended to be used together with Eaton’s The Wealthy Woman Oracle Deck. The cards provide clarity and guidance, and the journal is a sacred container to process, writer, and do the inner work to align with the card’s messages. An additional component of the financial journey Eaton provides is audio activations, which are recordings to activate abundance, that can be found online and listened to throughout one’s process of work with the cards and journal.

Eaton’s approach is refreshingly holistic, recognizing that financial success is deeply intertwined with one’s mindset and self-awareness. The journal is structured to facilitate a deeper understanding of one’s financial habits and beliefs, encouraging reflection on past experiences and setting clear, actionable goals for the future.

There are four chapters, and each has a specific focus for one’s financial journey. In order from chapter one to four the focuses are healing, trust, worthiness, and vision. Within each chapter, Eaton provides card spreads, journal prompts, money mantras, activations, and a prayer at the end. Some might feel called to move through the journal in sequential order, while others intuitively jump around to sections that call to them—whichever method feels aligned is the best way to proceed. This journal is not something to quickly move through and check off on a “to-do” list, but rather a tool to work with when the time feels right. Eaton writes:

“Use the journal at whatever paces feels right for you. The work you will do in this journal and the transformation you will undergo is sacred, deep work. Do not rush through it. Take your time. Be gentle and loving with yourself as you go through this metamorphosis.”1

I just love soaking in the heartfelt advice of Eaton! I have degrees in finance, economics, and accounting, so trust me when I say I’ve read a lot of books about money and improving one’s financial path. But none of them have ever tapped into the potent spiritual wisdom of the divine feminine to lead the way. For those of you who have struggled with your financial path within the current structure, rest assured there are most rewarding and fluid paths to success. This journal stands out with its unique blend of practical financial advice and engaging exercises that encourage women to explore their relationship with wealth through self-care, intuitive trust, and authenticity.

What makes this journal particularly appealing is its emphasis on empowerment and self-discovery. Through carefully crafted prompts and exercises, Eaton challenges users to think critically about their financial aspirations and the subconscious barriers that may be holding them back. This introspective journey is designed to foster a positive and proactive mindset towards wealth creation. The exercises are designed to tap you into your own personal frequency so that you reshape your financial journey to match your true desires.

Eaton’s advice helps to navigate the fears and doubts that arise when walking a path many have yet to remember. But she always brings journal-writers back to themselves through the process. I love this passage from the chapter on trust:

“As you take bold actions and move outside your comfort zone on your path to abidance, you may discover that you’re questioning yourself more than ever before. You may feel uncertain of what the future holds, fearful of what may (or may not) come to be, and wonder whether it would be better not to pursue the propensity your soul is yearning for. This is where trust is esential.”2

Another piece of advice Eaton offers that really stands out to me right now is the need to sometimes be still in the process of abundance activation. Finding a balance between action and non-action, readers discover that rest is just as important as forward momentum. She writes:

“When working hard than necessary, we often move so quickly that we miss countless opportunities for abundance to come to us easily. Sometimes, all we need to do is slow down and allow the money to catch up with us.”3

All of this wisdom makes for a fascinating read to illuminate new ideas as one moves through their financial journey. The multitude of ways to embrace the way of the wealthy woman, from mantras to journaling to the audio recordings, engage all the senses, bringing forth an embodied experience of financial transformation.

As for the journal’s physical details, the spine is flexible enough to open the pages wide when writing. And there’s a beautiful little pink ribbon placeholder to always find where you left off. The text is large enough to easily read, and the different fonts make it very aesthetically pleasing to read. Plus, the images throughout the book, which also appear in the oracle deck, awaken the sensuous, spiritual energy within ourselves. This journal is truly lovely visually, further connecting readers with the flowing, feminine nature of wealth.

Overall, The Way of the Wealthy Woman Journal is an excellent tool for those seeking to transform their financial lives. It not only provides practical advice but also nurtures a soul-centered approach to cultivating prosperity. It is a valuable companion for anyone on the path to financial empowerment, especially when worked with in combination with The Wealthy Woman Oracle Deck. There truly is an alternative pathway to wealth than what our capitalism culture shows us, and Eaton has opened a portal doorway for others to walk through with this journal.
