In this episode, we’re breaking down what’s actually holding most people back from wealth, freedom, and flexibility in today’s economy. Spoiler: it’s not taxes, inflation, or lack of opportunity. It’s how we think.
We unpack the hidden psychology that keeps people stuck in the paycheck-to-paycheck cycle—even when they make decent money. We share practical ways to increase your savings rate, gamify your finances, and build the discipline to protect yourself from yourself.
From side hustles and skills to smart investing and cash-flow moves, we map out the real path to financial freedom—without the fluff or false promises.
This isn’t theory. It’s what we’ve lived. And it’s what you can apply today.
