Manage episode 486639839 series 3616714
This week on WTF: Where’s the FUN?, we’re diving into the heart of your relationship with money—and how it’s showing up in your life, leadership, and legacy.
We're joined by executive coach and former wealth manager Marissa Teeter, and this episode is the financial reset you didn’t know you needed.
Together, we explore how to move from passive saving to intentional, empowered decision-making—and how financial peace isn’t about knowing everything, it’s about owning your habits, goals, and mindset.
In this honest and uplifting convo, we unpack:
✨ How your upbringing shapes your money behaviours
✨ Why alignment is more important than perfection when planning your finances ✨ The “five-year rule” to sustain your lifestyle and income
✨ What it really takes to build wealth—while still having FUN
✨ How to find the right financial advisor (and what most people overlook)
If you're ready to embrace your next level of wealth and create even more freedom, peace, and prosperity—this one’s for you.
Let’s unfold our wealth potential—while feeling aligned.
