She founded Wealth B-Hers to be a place for women to learn, share, and talk about money and investing without fear, shame, or judgment. Wealth B-Hers is a community supported by Money With Mission, whose vision is that every woman has the financial ability to walk away from any job or relationship that is not in her best interest.

The Client a $1.4 Billion Advisor Won't Take with Jonathan Steele

What if the way you think about money today traces back to something that happened when you were twelve or thirteen? On this episode of Wealth B-Hers, Dr. Felecia Froe sits down with Jonathan Steele, founder and chief investment officer of One Wealth Advisors, a firm managing $1.4 billion for roughly 400 families. Jonathan traces his money story back to eighth grade, watching his mom pay off a department store credit card the second they got home, and then walks through his own winding path from a restaurant kitchen to cold calling at Bear Stearns to building an independent firm with his brother. Along the way, he and Dr. Froe get into what behavioral finance actually means, delegating vs abdicating financial decisions, and the difference between a fiduciary and a financial advisor/dealer-broker. It's a conversation about the psychology behind the numbers and why staying engaged with your advisor (even when it feels like you're bothering them) is what actually protects you. 00:00 – Meet Jonathan Steele: A Money Story from Eighth Grade 09:45 – From the Kitchen to Cold Calling: Jonathan's Path to Finance 18:17 – What Is Behavioral Finance, Really? 23:12 – Delegating vs. Abdicating Your Financial Life 32:09 – Fiduciary vs. Agent: Know Who You're Paying 35:57 – Behind the Advisor: Podcast, Peanut Butter, and Senior Dogs You've worked hard to build your career.

ICYMI: Creating Social Impact Through Real Estate Investing with Felecia Froe

Dr. Felecia Froe made her first real estate investment years before she even knew she was an investor. She was five years into her medical practice when it hit her that this wasn't the last thing she'd ever do. In this ICYMI crossover from Zen and the Art of Real Estate Investing, she tells host Jonathan Greene how an office building she bought with fellow women physicians turned out to be that first deal, though she didn't realize it until years later. From there she built fast, lost hard in 2008, and rebuilt into Money With Mission, a community that helps professional women use real estate as a financial escape hatch from bad jobs and bad relationships. Felecia gets specific about what "social impact investing" actually means, walks through her food desert grocery store project in Tulsa, and breaks down her own portfolio, from assisted living homes to water tech startups. She closes with the advice she wishes someone had given her before 2008: get educated, find mentors, and never go it alone. 00:00 - Meet Dr. Felecia Froe and What Social Impact Investing Really Means 04:11 - An Accidental Start: From Medical Practice to First Deal 12:09 - Real Estate as a Financial Escape Hatch 19:46 - Solving Food Deserts and Rethinking Affordable Housing 26:22 - A Diversified Portfolio and the Power of Community 36:45 - Lessons From 2008 and Advice for the Next Generation You've worked hard to build your career.

Foundations #11: The Cost of Waiting

There's a kind of waiting that doesn't feel like waiting. You know exactly what you need to do. You've meant to do it for longer than you'd like to admit. You keep finding a reason why right now isn't quite the right time, and you tell yourself that's responsible, that's thoughtful, that's just good timing. In episode 11 of the Wealth B-Hers Foundations series, Dr. Felecia Froe is done letting that story stand. She breaks down exactly what waiting costs, the compound growth that quietly disappears, the confidence that erodes one avoided month at a time, the low hum of 2am anxiety that never fully goes away. She shares her own experience starting over in the middle of real loss after 2008, and she lands on something most financial advice never says out loud: the perfect moment to begin is never coming, for anyone. This isn't a call to panic or a countdown to catch up. It's an honest accounting of the price of delay, and a reminder that you aren't behind. The episode closes with one clear, doable step, not a plan, not a deadline, just the decision to stop waiting and find the people who can help you begin. 00:00 - Continuing the Foundations Series 02:13 - Naming the Quiet Kind of Waiting 04:04 - The Financial Cost of Time 05:30 - The Emotional Tax of Uncertainty 07:37- Why the Perfect Moment Never Comes 09:19 - Starting in the Middle and Finding Your People You've worked hard to build your career.

ICYMI: Money Tales: Money's Everywhere with Dr. Felecia Froe

In this ICYMI conversation, Dr. Felecia Froe sits down with Sandi Bragar and Cammie Doder on the Money Tales podcast to trace the money narrative that shaped her from childhood all the way to founding Money With Mission. She opens up about watching her mother stay in a domestic violence relationship for financial reasons, the credit card mistakes she made in medical school, and how she used the CASHFLOW 101 game to teach her own daughters about money years before most parents even start the conversation. Felecia also walks through the deal that changed everything: a patient named Jamie who challenged her to buy her first real estate property and removed all the risk in doing so. From there she details the whirlwind of buying 18 properties in two years, the 2008 crash that took it all down along with her marriage, and the hard-won knowledge that let her rebuild and eventually pivot into syndication and mission-driven investing. It's a candid, full-circle look at how failure and a shift in mindset about what money is actually for turned into a mission to help other women build wealth and never feel stuck again. 00:00 - Introductions and the Host's Own Money Lesson 07:12 - A Money Narrative Rooted in Childhood 12:36 - Processing Family History and Early Money Mistakes 18:02 - Rich Dad Poor Dad and Her First Real Estate Deal 21:17 - Rapid Growth, the 2008 Crash, and Starting Over 25:59 - Building Money With Mission and Investing With Purpose 34:40 - Three Questions that will Help you get Clear on Who You are as an Investor You've worked hard to build your career.

Foundations #10: You're Not Bad with Money

You're not bad with money. In this Foundations episode, Dr. Felecia Froe speaks directly to every woman carrying the belief that she's somehow failed at money, whether she's avoided her finances for years, watched a high income never translate into confidence, or is still making sense of a setback that shook her trust in herself. Felecia reframes the whole story: what looks like carelessness is actually overwhelm, what looks like incapability is actually a lack of preparation, and what looks like personal failure is actually a systemic failure. This episode's an invitation to put the "bad with money" label down for good and start building from where you actually are. 00:00 - Welcome & Naming the Belief 02:28 - Reframing "Bad with Money" 04:32 - Why Avoidance Happens 06:12 - Setbacks Aren't Evidence Against You 08:39 - Putting the Story Down You've worked hard to build your career.

ICYMI: How to Invest When You're Scared (Because Everyone Is) with Dr. Felecia Froe

Felecia Froe became a urologic surgeon after succeeding in medical school and urology residency. Somehow she knew this wasn't the last thing she would ever do. Her mind as rewired about the idea of money after reading Rich Dad Poor Dad by Robert Kyosaki. In this ICYMI conversation with Mary Katherine Johnson of Planet Wealth, Felecia traces her path buying 18 properties in two years, losing nearly everything in the 2008 crash, and rebuilding into a social impact investor who's now running sober living homes and fighting food deserts. She gets honest about the fear that doesn't fully go away, even after decades of deals, the mindset shift from working for money to making money work for you, and why she believes no woman should ever feel financially stuck in a job or relationship. This one's part memoir, part masterclass in risk, and part call to action for women ready to stop waiting for permission. 00:00 - From the OR to Real Estate: Felecia's Origin Story 05:24 - Finding "The Thing": Social Impact Investing 12:05 - The Courage to Change Course 18:50 - The Mission Behind Money with Mission 23:05 - Reframing Risk and the Money Mindset Shift 28:35 - Turning Communities Around and Advice for New Investors You've worked hard to build your career.

Choice Is Dignity with Stephanie Georges

After four decades guiding companies through disruption and reinvention, Stephanie Georges realized she was applying every lesson to everyone but herself. In this episode of Wealth B-Hers, Stephanie sits down with Felecia to unpack the slow, quiet unraveling that led her to walk away from a senior leadership career in defense technology, and how that leap became the Meraki Dignity Project, a platform built to help women navigate change with clarity, community, and financial confidence. The conversation moves through the myths that keep women isolated in their struggles, the courage it takes to ask for what you need, and why women collectively hold so much wealth yet rarely feel powerful.

Foundations #9: Community Changes How Women Build Wealth

We talk a lot about the internal work of building wealth: reframing what money means, examining our triggers, defining what security looks like for you. In this episode, Felecia turns to something we don't talk about enough, the myth that financially successful women figure everything out alone. She unpacks how isolation taxes our financial lives in decisions delayed, opportunities missed, and energy spent performing a confidence we don't actually feel, and makes the case for why the right community isn't about accountability check-ins, but about something deeper: belief, believing in yourself and being in a room with other women who believe in you. This is a conversation about what changes when you stop navigating your money alone, and why the women who grow the fastest aren't the ones who show up with all the answers, but the ones who are willing to think out loud. 00:00 - Welcome to Wealth B-Hers 00:56 - Internal Work Recap 01:30 - The Isolation Myth 02:07 - The Hidden Cost 03:11 - Permission and Clarity 04:43 - Right Room vs Wrong 05:41 - Community Shapes Decisions 07:33 - Beyond Accountability 09:49 - Invitation to Wealth B-Hers 10:03 - How to Join and Share You've worked hard to build your career.

What If the Money in Your Account Isn't Real Wealth? with Paul Musson

What if the money in your account is not the same thing as real wealth? That's where this conversation starts. Dr. Felecia Froe sits down with Paul Musson, former professional investor, founder of the Paulitical Economy blog, and author of Capital Offence: Why Some Benefit at Your Expense. After decades inside the investment world, Paul began studying economics more deeply after seeing how the housing bubble, the financial crisis, and policy decisions reshaped the relationship between money, capital, and everyday people's ability to build wealth. They talk about the difference between money and capital, how inflation quietly erodes purchasing power, and why rising asset prices do not always mean real wealth is being created. Dr. Felecia asks the practical questions many listeners may be wondering: What does it mean when money is "devalued"? Why does a Treasury investment look safe but still lose purchasing power? Does lowering interest rates really make housing more affordable? And what does building capital look like for people who are working, saving, investing, and trying to create options? This conversation is about understanding the economy in plain language so women can ask better questions, protect their future, and build wealth that is actually real. 00:00 – Understanding Money, Wealth, and the Economy 02:58 – When Paul Realized the System Was the Problem 07:04 – Capital vs. Money 09:15 – How Money Creation Reduces Purchasing Power 12:07 – Government Spending, Consumption, and Investment 15:30 – Financial Repression and Devalued Dollars 18:17 – Why Getting the Same Dollars Back Can Still Mean Losing Value 22:00 – Be Free and Do No Harm 28:11 – How Asset Prices Transfer Wealth 35:25 – Why Lower Mortgage Rates Do Not Always Mean Affordable Housing 38:44 – When a House Becomes "the Investment" 44:08 – Paul Musson's Book " Capital Offence: Why Some Benefit at Your Expense." 49:14 – What Building Capital Looks Like for Everyday Investors 55:12 – Cash Flow vs. Appreciation in Real Estate 57:58 – Wealth Inequality and the Stock Market 59:41 – Capitalism vs. Interference With Capitalism 01:04:00 – Why People Deserve Clear Explanations You've worked hard to build your career.

Fear, not Debt with Barry Levine

What if the thing keeping people stuck financially is not the debt itself, but the fear of facing it? That's where this conversation starts. Dr. Felecia sits down with Barry Levine, a Massachusetts-based bankruptcy attorney with more than 45 years of experience helping individuals and small business owners navigate serious financial strain. Barry has seen people walk into his office scared, ashamed, overwhelmed, and convinced they are out of options. What he has learned is that the legal process often has structure, but fear can keep people frozen long before they ever ask for help. They talk about why bankruptcy is not always the worst-case scenario, why ignoring notices does not make them disappear, and how understanding the system can bring clarity before things spiral. Dr. Felecia asks the practical questions many listeners may be wondering: When should someone talk to an attorney? What actually happens in bankruptcy? What assets are protected? What happens to your credit score? And what should business owners do before financial pressure turns into chaos? This conversation is about shame, strategy, and learning how money works on both the upside and the downside. 00:00 – Why Fear, Not Debt, Keeps People Trapped 06:40 – Why Women Hide From Their Money 11:59 – When Should You Talk to an Attorney? 13:58 – What Happens When You Ignore the Notices? 15:25 – Understanding Exempt Assets 20:08 – What Bankruptcy Is and What It Is Not 27:00 – How Creditors React When You Miss a Payment 33:02 – The Truth About Bankruptcy and Credit Scores 38:17 – What Life Looks Like After Bankruptcy 41:56 – Can Bankruptcy Stop a Foreclosure? 44:40 – When Keeping the House No Longer Makes Sense 49:20 – What Business Owners Need to Know 51:50 – What to Do If Your Practice or Business Is Struggling 55:10 – Why Information Helps Break Fear and Shame 55:38 – Planning for the Best Case and the Worst Case You've worked hard to build your career.
