SeedTime Money (Faith, Family & Finances)

10 ways society programs us to stay broke (and how to break out)


Listen Later

Have you ever felt like no matter how hard you work, you're still not getting ahead financially?

You're not lazy. You're not broken.

You're just programmed.

In this episode, we unpack 10 sneaky ways society wires us to stay broke—and most of us don’t even realize it’s happening. From how we’re taught about money in school, to why hustle culture keeps us exhausted but not wealthy, to the dangerous comfort that robs us of growth—this one is a wake-up call.

💡 We break down:

  • The mindset traps that make you fear risk but stay stuck in debt
  • Why chasing comfort might be the most expensive decision you ever make
  • The reason most people work hard but never build wealth
  • How to deprogram yourself and step into true financial freedom
