    Think You're Behind Financially? Think Again. Here's What You Need to Know. In this powerful episode, I sit down with Paula Pant—host of the Afford Anything podcast and financial independence expert—to break down the money myths that are holding you back and the shifts you need to make right now to create financial freedom.

Paula and I cover the critical difference between earning more and saving more, how to make smarter trade-offs based on what you really value, and why your spending should reflect your priorities—not what society says you “should” want. We also dive into how to calculate the true cost of your time, the psychology behind wealth-building, and how to start investing—no matter your current income level. 📌 Key Takeaways: How to identify the trade-offs that make you truly wealthy The psychology of money—and how to stop letting it hold you back The truth about financial independence (and why it doesn’t mean retiring) A 3-step formula to grow wealth: earn more, spend less, invest the gap Why it’s never too late to start building wealth—regardless of age or past mistakes You’ll also hear Paula’s story of quitting her $31k/year job, saving aggressively, traveling the world, and ultimately creating a business that gave her full financial freedom.
