In this episode, I dive into the powerful influence that promotion, advertising, and marketing can have on our financial decision-making. Back in my twenties, I learned some tough lessons—chasing hype, getting caught up in promises that sounded too good to be true, and ultimately paying the price, both financially and emotionally. That experience shook my confidence and forced me to rewire my thinking.
It was a wake-up call that led me down the path of behavioral finance—understanding how emotions like fear and greed cloud our judgment. I’ve realized that building long-term wealth and well-being requires more than just financial literacy; it takes emotional intelligence and a clear framework rooted in evidence, not impulse.
So in this conversation, I encourage you to pause, reflect, and ask: Am I making decisions from a place of wisdom—or reacting to noise? The goal isn’t perfection, it’s progress. And as always, I’m here to help guide you toward a richer life—in every sense of the word.
