5 Books to Shift Your Money Mindset Today

Your relationship with money doesn’t just live in your bank account — it lives in your beliefs.

What you charge.
How you spend.
Whether you save, invest, or avoid your finances altogether.

For many women, money mindset is shaped by generational stories, cultural expectations, and a lack of visible representation in financial spaces.

But the good news? Mindsets can be rewritten.
And sometimes, all it takes is the right book at the right time.

Here are 5 powerful reads that will help you change how you think about money — and what’s possible for you.

1. We Should All Be Millionaires by Rachel Rodgers

This is the book that tells you with zero apology that you deserve to be rich.

Rodgers, a Black woman lawyer turned 7-figure business coach, blends storytelling with strategy to help you dismantle limiting beliefs and build true financial power.

Why read it:
It’s part pep talk, part plan of action and perfect if you’re done playing small.

2. Get Good with Money by Tiffany Aliche

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by budgeting, bills or credit scores, this book is a calm, clear guide.

Why read it:

4. The Big Leap by Gay Hendricks

This book isn’t technically about money but it’s about something just as important: why you keep hitting a ceiling.

Hendricks introduces the idea of upper limits, subconscious beliefs that sabotage your success. If you’re stuck, this one will shift you.

Why read it:
It helps you get out of your own way, so you can receive more in every area of your life.
