121. The Hidden Cost of Making It Work: When Peace Is the Better ROI
Description
Are you trying to make it work—even when it doesn’t really work for you?
In this episode, I open up about our recent home buying experience—how we put in an offer, ran the numbers, and realized the biggest purchase wasn’t the house… it was the peace we were giving up to get it. From mental gymnastics to misaligned values, I walk you through the financial, emotional, and legacy-level cost of trying to force a decision that just doesn’t fit.
You’ll learn:
1️⃣ Why “we can make it work” might be your most expensive mindset.
2️⃣ The 2 big signs your budget and values are out of alignment.
3️⃣ How to say “not yet” without feeling like you’re missing out.
4️⃣ Why peace should be part of your return on investment.
This is your reminder that long-term legacy > short-term pressure. Don’t sacrifice your sanity for the sake of a strategy.
🎯 ACTION STEP: Identify one area where you’re forcing it financially—then pause or pivot.
