Description
This week on the Journey to Launch Podcast, I have a powerful conversation with Esther Hyun, a stage four colorectal cancer survivor and lawyer, who opens up about her journey to financial independence. Esther highlights the need to balance financial goals with personal well-being, while stressing the importance of preventative health care. She also discusses the financial challenges of navigating cancer treatment, such as unexpected out-of-network medical bills, and underscores the value of life insurance, estate planning, and much more.
In this episode, we discuss:
-
Esther’s financial foundations which allowed her to be debt-free except for student loans and how she contributes to HSAs and 401(k)s to build wealth

Esther’s experience of being diagnosed with colorectal cancer at 36, the financial impact it had on her, and the importance of having a plan in place for unexpected events.
-
Life insurance, estate planning, and balancing financial independence with enjoying life in the present.
