The Bible Made Us Wealthy. Ep 169

For a long time, I thought my financial situation would eventually work itself out.I thought if I just kept working hard, making money, and staying busy, everything would be fine.But looking back, I realized something was standing in my way:Pride.In this episode of the Wealth is a Journey Podcast, I share how pride was impacting my financial decisions and why I believe it keeps many people stuck financially today.Sometimes pride looks like:Refusing to ask for helpIgnoring financial problemsAvoiding accountabilityThinking we already know everythingBelieving things will magically get better without changing our habitsThe Bible has a lot to say about pride, humility, wisdom, and seeking counsel. As believers, many of us pray for financial blessings, but when the blessings come, we often lack the discipline and stewardship needed to maintain them.In this episode, we discuss:• What the Bible says about pride and money• How pride can quietly sabotage your financial future• Why asking for help is a sign of wisdom, not weakness• The importance of humility in wealth building• How stewardship and discipline create long-term financial success• Why financial freedom starts with being honest about where you are todaySometimes God sends money.Many times He sends wisdom, instruction, and a plan.The question is: Are we willing to follow it?🔥 Work With MeIf you're ready to stop struggling financially and start building wealth intentionally, join the Wealth Builders Accountability Group.Inside the community we focus on:• Budgeting• Investing• Accountability• Financial Discipline• Long-Term Wealth Building🌐 Learn more at:wealthisajourney.com

This is how to win with money. Ep 167

I recently saw someone say that budgeting is keeping people broke.And honestly… I understand why some people feel that way.For many of us, the word “budget” feels like restriction. It brings up emotions tied to growing up without money, struggling financially, or constantly feeling like we can’t enjoy life.But in this episode of the Wealth is a Journey Podcast, I break down why budgeting isn’t the problem — lack of control is.We talk about:• Why so many people emotionally resist budgeting• How childhood experiences shape our relationship with money• The difference between restriction and financial control• Why wealthy people budget differently• How budgeting creates peace, clarity, and long-term freedomA budget isn’t designed to stop you from enjoying life.It’s designed to help you stop living paycheck to paycheck and start building wealth intentionally.Because real freedom comes from control — not chaos.Work With MeIf you're ready to take control of your finances and start building wealth intentionally, join the Wealth Builders Accountability Group.Inside the community, we focus on:• Budgeting• Investing• Financial discipline• Accountability• Long-term wealth building🌐 Learn more here:wealthisajourney.com

What Do You Believe? Ep 166

A lot of us grew up believing things about money that were never true.We were told:“People like us don’t become wealthy.”“If you grew up poor, that’s just your reality.”“You need multiple streams of income and nonstop hustle to build wealth.”“Bad money habits can’t change.”But those beliefs are exactly what keep people financially stuck.In this episode of the Wealth is a Journey Podcast, I break down some of the biggest lies people believe about money, wealth, and their future—and how those lies quietly shape our financial decisions.I also share personal stories about how I had to challenge my own mindset around money, investing, discipline, and wealth building.We talk about:• Why your upbringing does not determine your financial future• How limiting beliefs keep people living average lives• Why wealthy people believe wealth is possible before they see it• The connection between fear, mindset, and financial growth• Why consistency matters more than perfectionYou don’t have to stay trapped in the same financial cycle you grew up around.You can learn differently.You can move differently.You can build wealth differently.Work With MeIf you're ready to stop surviving financially and start building wealth intentionally, join the Wealth Builders Accountability Group.Inside the community, we focus on:• Budgeting• Investing• Financial discipline• Accountability• Long-term wealth buildingLearn more here:wealthisajourney.com
