Characters from Real Money Stories

So many of our beliefs about wealth, success, and financial security are shaped by past experiences or stories we've unconsciously absorbed, but are they helping or holding us back? Are your financial habits based on old assumptions, or have you created a plan that actually serves your dreams? In this episode, I talk with Bill Cates, author of "The Hidden Heist," about uncovering self-limiting beliefs, the power of compounding, and why we all need to rethink our approach to building financial dignity and freedom—on our own terms.

Listen to this new episode for inspiration on rewriting your money story, practical tips to grow your wealth, and why awareness is the first step to lasting financial change.
