Money blocks aren't just financial—they're deeply psychological. In this transformative episode, I sit down with powerhouse entrepreneurs Rachel Rodgers, Anthony O'Neal, and Mark Matson who reveal how our earliest money experiences create invisible "screens" that dictate our financial decisions. Rachel shares her journey from law school to eight-figure business owner, explaining how she challenges the "money is evil" narrative that holds many people back. Anthony delivers a tactical blueprint for climbing out of debt by casting vision before budgeting, while Mark vulnerably unpacks how his coal-mining grandfather's poverty mindset contrasted with his father's entrepreneurial spirit. You'll discover why millionaires are often unhappy despite their wealth, how to overcome imposter syndrome in high-achieving environments, and the unexpected connection between your purpose and financial abundance.

How to systematically challenge limiting money beliefs by collecting evidence that proves the opposite
Why managing your emotions is crucial for making sound financial decisions
The five-step tactical blueprint for going from broke and in debt to financial freedom
