What if the key to a vibrant, fulfilling retirement has less to do with your finances — and everything to do with how you think about them?

In this eye-opening conversation, I’m joined by Leisa Peterson — abundance coach, bestselling author, and expert in transforming limiting beliefs around money. Together, we unpack the powerful (and often hidden) influence a scarcity mindset can have on how you approach retirement — from your daily choices to your overall sense of freedom and joy.

Leisa shares transformative tools you can begin using today — like meditation, mindfulness, and intentional affirmations — to release fear, shift your money story, and open the door to true abundance.

You’ll discover:

• Why financial peace has nothing to do with the size of your bank account

• How to recognize and rewrite the beliefs that keep you stuck in fear

• Practical ways to feel more confident and secure — even if you're starting with limited resources

• A fresh perspective that helps you see the opportunities already around you.

If you're ready to let go of stress and start designing your next chapter from a place of trust, ease, and empowerment — this episode is packed with golden nuggets to help you do just that.

Tune in and start seeing retirement not as a time of limits, but as your most abundant chapter yet. 

 

AFFIRMATION of the MONTH:

“Everything I desire and want, I receive way more than what I ask for”.
