  • Spending Money as a Reflection of Identity

    Loved how this episode reframed wealth through the lens of intention and identity — spending isn’t just transaction, it’s expression. You reminded listeners that money, properly aligned with values, becomes a tool for legacy, clarity, and elevated living. Insightful, grounded, and deeply human.
