Episode 264- From Hoarding Money To Enjoying Money & My Financial Freedom Evolution

In this solo episode, I share my thoughts on Bill Perkin’s new book, Die With Zero: Getting All You Can From Your Money and Your Life, and how my own financial independence journey has changed and evolved in the last several years.  Since I began the Journey To Launch podcast and left my corporate job to pursue full time entrepreneurship, my philosophy on Financial Independence has shifted. Now, instead of saving and investing to just save and invest, I look at it through the lens of, “How can I maximize my life and live it to the fullest, while also passing down wealth?”

In this episode I discuss:

• The importance of recognizing short-term goals instead of just our long-term ones
• How spending money can build a healthy family financial foundation
• Gifting your kids assets before they’re too old to not use them 
• Why sometimes you really can’t DIY your life
• The impact Die With Zero had on me as a creator and business owner + more
