EP 144: The Mindset of Money

I wasn’t always wealthy... I didn't come from money, I never had an upper hand in life, and I’m not even that great at managing my own money. But thankfully I had a few people in my life who took their time to show me how to view money in a completely different way, recognize the opportunity that is available to everyone, and create abundant, lasting wealth that brings real freedom & flexibility, and allows me to make a massive impact. And today, I’m going to break it all down for you. Get ready to take notes and follow me on IG @trevor.mauch to get my wealthy “cheat sheet” and other golden nuggets from this episode.
