 Episode notes 
Early Money Experiences
- Scarlett Rojas's fascination with money began in childhood due to her family's financial struggles.
- She witnessed her father's hard work not equating to wealth and her mother's lack of financial independence.
Childhood Financial Lack
- Rojas felt a sense of lack growing up, unable to afford luxuries other children had.
- This led to the subconscious belief, "I'm not one of them," referring to those with money.
Work Smarter, Not Harder
- Working hard doesn't automatically guarantee wealth, smarter financial decisions are key.
- Leverage money as a tool rather than equating hard work with financial success.
