For years, Derek Coburn watched high achievers sacrifice health and joy in pursuit of a “magic number” they believed would bring freedom - only to feel empty when they reached it.
In this powerful episode, Derek flips the script on traditional financial wisdom and reveals a truth most advisors won’t say out loud.
We dive into:
•How to design a life so aligned and fulfilling you’d never want to retire from it.
•The hidden cost of postponing happiness and why “later” is the most expensive word in wealth. •How to create a richer life than any spreadsheet can show.
•Why chasing the perfect number can leave you empty - and what actually delivers freedom. •Practical shifts to invest in the present - not just the future.
This isn’t a conversation about money management. It’s a wake-up call to stop deferring your life and start living the wealth you’re working so hard to build - right now.
