Real Estate Investing for Women: Rewire for Wealth and Success
Apr 04, 2025
By Monick Halm, REI Goddesses
Let’s get real for a moment, goddess.
You can have all the spreadsheets, deal calculators, and BRRRR strategies in the world… but if your mindset isn’t aligned with wealth, it won’t matter.
I’ve seen it again and again. A brilliant, capable woman gets excited about real estate investing. She knows it’s one of the best paths to passive income and generational wealth. She’s listening to the podcasts, attending the webinars, joining the masterminds…
And yet, she stays stuck.
Not because she lacks knowledge. Not because she’s not committed. But because, deep down, there’s a part of her that doesn’t feel safe with money—or doesn’t fully trust herself with power.
That’s exactly what we explored on a recent episode of Getting Real with my mentor and dear friend, Barbara Huson—a financial therapist, wealth coach, and best-selling author.
And let me tell you… this wasn’t just a conversation about money.
It was about becoming the kind of woman who can hold wealth. Grow it. Receive it. Pass it on.
It was about becoming a powerful, prosperous goddess.
Money Mindset Is the Foundation of Passive Income
You know I love real estate. It’s changed my life—and it’s transforming the lives of thousands of women in our REI Goddesses community.
But here’s the truth most people miss: investing is not just about cap rates and cash flow. It’s about who you’re being as you build your portfolio.
If you’re quietly afraid of success...
If you believe wealth makes you a target...
If your nervous system associates money with stress, shame, or scarcity...
It’s going to be hard to create sustainable results.
Because your subconscious will sabotage your success every step of the way.
Wealth Is Power—and Power Can Feel Scary
Barbara said something that gave me chills:
“Women’s problems with money have nothing to do with money. They have everything to do with our fear of power.”
Let that sink in.
Many of us were raised to defer—to fathers, partners, or society. We were taught that someone else would handle the finances. That being too successful or too wealthy would make us unlovable or unsafe.
So when we step into real estate investing—when we start buying properties, leveraging capital, and building real income—we are also stepping into our power.
And that power can feel terrifying.
Fear of failure.
Fear of visibility.
Fear of judgment.
Even fear of success.
Sacred Success™: A Feminine Path to Financial Freedom
Barbara teaches a concept I adore called Sacred Success™—the idea of pursuing your soul’s purpose and being richly rewarded for it.
That’s exactly what we do at REIG.
Real estate isn’t just a financial vehicle—it’s a sacred one. A tool to help women create freedom, joy, and impact that ripples through generations.
You’re not just buying buildings.
You’re reclaiming your power.
You’re creating choices—for your children, your legacy, and yourself.
You’re embodying wealth.
The Four Layers of Feminine Wealth Building
Barbara shared a powerful framework for building wealth the feminine way:
Outer Work of Wealth – The strategic side: learning real estate, analyzing deals, understanding your numbers.
Inner Work of Wealth – The emotional side: healing money wounds, rewriting your money story, releasing fear and shame.
Higher Work of Wealth – The soulful side: connecting to your “why.” Freedom. Family. Service. Self-expression.
Deeper Work of Wealth – The neurological side: rewiring your brain so it actually supports your goals instead of sabotaging them.
Want to Grow Your Portfolio? Start by Rewiring Your Brain
Barbara shared a neuroscience-based process for creating lasting financial change. It’s simple—but truly transformative.
Recognize
Notice your limiting thoughts. Example: “I’m not ready to invest.” Become aware, without judgment.
Reframe
Choose a new, empowering belief. “I am safe with money. I am a powerful steward of wealth.” Say it with emotion—feel it in your body.
Respond Differently
Take an aligned action. Open that account. Book that strategy call. Make that offer. Act as if your new belief is already true.
Do this consistently, and you’ll start to rewire your mind for real wealth.
Real Estate Investing for Women Is a Sacred Path
If you’re reading this, you’re not here just to flip a house or buy a duplex.
You’re here to change your family’s financial future.
To create income that flows while you sleep.
To leave a legacy.
To break cycles.
To open new doors—for yourself and for others.
But that journey doesn’t start with numbers. It starts with mindset.
You have to rewire your thoughts, not just your spreadsheets.
You have to become the woman who can receive with ease.
And you don’t have to do it alone. That’s why the REI Goddesses sisterhood exists.
