Hey, Heal Squad! On this Throwback Thursday, we’re continuing the theme of building a wealthy life for yourself (and not just financially🤭) and bringing back America’s Money Maven, Patrice Washington. If you think wealth is just about money, think again! Patrice is breaking down the 6 Pillars of Wealth and sharing how redefining success transformed her life after losing everything.She gets real about hitting rock bottom, rebuilding after financial devastation, and why chasing money alone won’t lead to real fulfillment. Patrice also shares powerful mindset shifts that can help you create long-term financial security, career success, and personal well-being—all while staying true to yourself.If you’re ready to build a life that feels rich, not just looks rich, tune in!!HEALERS & HEAL LINERS:  Wealth isn’t just about money. It’s about your overall well-being. The original definition of wealth was the “condition of well-being,” and financial success is just one part of the equation. Success means nothing if you don’t have peace. Patrice opens up about how paying for peace is one of the best investments you can make in life and business. You don’t have to be perfect to share your knowledge. If you’re a 7/10 at something, you can still teach the 1s through 6s—your experiences have value, even when you’re still learning. --HEAL SQUAD SOCIALSIG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmariaHEAL SQUAD RESOURCES:Heal Squad Website: https://www.healsquad.com/Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.comMy Curated Macy’s Page: Shop My Macy’s StorefrontAquaTru: https://aquatruwater.com/ code: HEALSQUADAirDoctor: https://airdoctorpro.com/ code: HEALSQUADPrenuvo: Prenuvo.com/MARIA for $300 offSleep Number: https://www.sleepnumber.com/PATRICE WASHINGTON’S RESOURCESInstagram https://www.instagram.com/seekwisdompcw/?hl=en Website https://patricewashington.com/ Book https://patricewashington.com/books/ ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS:Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos’ passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.ABOUT HEAL SQUAD x MARIA MENOUNOS:A daily digital talk-show that brings you the world's leading healers, experts, and celebrities to share groundbreaking secrets and tips to getting better in all areas of life.DISCLAIMER:This Podcast and all related content ( published or distributed by or on behalf of Maria Menounos or http://Mariamenounos.com and http://healsquad.com ) is for informational purposes only and may include information that is general in nature and that is not specific to you.

Together, they share their raw emotions and inspiring efforts to help rebuild lives and guide our city on its path to healing. You’ll hear the touching story of how 1,000 pets have been reunited with their families, a first-hand account from a firefighter who faced the flames in those critical first moments, and the raw, emotional realities of families rebuilding their lives—some leaving behind pride to accept the essentials they need to start over. It’s a powerful episode filled with resilience, hope, love, and most of all healing. Episode Links:  Pasadena Humane Fire Relief ResourcesGive to Pasadena HumaneHelp Chien’s Kids’schoolChein Yu GoFundMe Follow The A.ListMore GoFundMe Stories to Support:Donate to Jackie GoFundMeHelp Shahada’s Mom  GoFundMe **please contact Heal Squad if you have a vacant place in Pasadena area for her to stayHelp Marike’s friend GoFundMeSave Kelly’s hometown hangout PaliskatesPete’s GoFundMeGive Pete’s Neighbors Hope Hector Consuegra & Josh Thatcher & His Block& Master GoFundMe ListCharities to donate to for LA Wildfires: Baby2Baby https://donate.baby2baby.org/give/648067/#!/donation/checkoutCalFire Benevolent Foundation https://calfire.foundation/donations/ California Fire Foundation https://cpf.salsalabs.org/cff-donation/index.html Pali Charter High: https://givebutter.com/raisepaliAltadena Girls: https://www.pledge.to/altadena-girlsHEAL SQUAD SOCIALSIG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmariaHEAL SQUAD RESOURCES:Heal Squad Website: https://www.healsquad.com/Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.comMy Curated Macy’s Page: Shop My Macy’s StorefrontAquaTru: https://aquatruwater.com/ code: HEALSQUADAirDoctor: https://airdoctorpro.com/ code: HEALSQUADPrenuvo: Prenuvo.com/MARIA for $300 offSleep Number: https://www.sleepnumber.com/ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS:Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos’ passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.ABOUT HEAL SQUAD x MARIA MENOUNOS:A daily digital talk-show that brings you the world's leading healers, experts, and celebrities to share groundbreaking secrets and tips to getting better in all areas of life.DISCLAIMER:This Podcast and all related content ( published or distributed by or on behalf of Maria Menounos or http://Mariamenounos.com and http://healsquad.com ) is for informational purposes only and may include information that is general in nature and that is not specific to you.
