Steven Cohen | Mastering the Inner Game of Growth & Wealth #66

Steven Cohen, host of Millennial Millionaire, joins Miesha to break down the mindset traps that keep people stuck—scarcity thinking, fear of risk, and generational money beliefs. Steven shares how growing up in a financially stressed home, watching his family struggle, and experiencing a life-changing moment at a pawn shop pushed him to rewrite his identity and build financial freedom.

They discuss imposter syndrome, taking bold action before you feel ready, the difference between being poor vs. broke, and why mastering your inner dialogue matters far more than any “how-to” strategy. If you’re ready to break old patterns and finally bet on yourself, this episode will shift how you see your potential and your path forward.
