Permission Granted (Part 2): Fear, Freedom, and Writing a New Money Story with Carl Richards

MP3•Episode home

In Part 2 of this intimate conversation, Shari continues her discussion with Carl Richards, the New York Times “Sketch Guy.” If Part 1 was about the behavior behind money, Part 2 is about the beliefs behind your life.

Carl opens up about how his simple sketches began, how a single comment from his wife reshaped his entire career, and why permission—not math—is often the missing piece in big financial and life decisions.

He shares unforgettable stories, including the woman who left her prestigious Wall Street law job to return home and help her father run the family farm—because Carl granted her the “permission” she already had inside her.

Shari and Carl also dig into fear, impostor syndrome, our inherited money stories, and why most of us wait far too long to trust what we know is true about our lives.

This is the kind of conversation you don’t just listen to—you feel it.

You’ll walk away with:

– Why permission is often the bridge between intention and action

– The emotional patterns that keep people stuck

– How fear shows up at every major life moment

– The story behind Carl’s famous sketches

– The one money belief Carl would give his 25-year-old self

– Shari’s own reflections on her younger self

—and what she wishes she knew

Shari closes the episode by sharing how Carl’s influence shaped her practice, her philosophy, and the human-centered way she guides clients inside GWA Wealth.
