Wellness + Wisdom | Episode 713

What if everything you’ve been taught about money is actually keeping you broke?

Garrett Gunderson, Multimillion Entrepreneur, joins Josh Trent on the Wellness + Wisdom Podcast, episode 713, to challenge the myths around budgeting, hustle culture, and “safe jobs.” In this eye-opening conversation, Garrett unpacks why money follows value, how technology can create better opportunities, and why genuine wealth starts with loving yourself—proving once and for all that the greatest investment you can make is in yourself and your own healing.

"Scarcity is the greatest destroyer of wealth. It comes from a place of limitation and lack, and it gets perpetuated because people are taught to budget and budgeting is reductionist thinking and a finite game." - Garrett Gunderson

Power Quotes From The Show Do You Have a Money Problem?

"It doesn't take money to make money, it takes relationships and ideas. It takes value and exchange. So if you think you have a money problem, it's not really a money problem. It's a mental capital problem, which means ideas, knowledge, wisdom, insights, strategies, and tools." - Garrett Gunderson

Value Creation

"Money is a byproduct of value creation. Value creation means that we've served someone, we've solved the problem, we've added value in their life. Vision is what determines value. And if we have a limited vision, we're going to limit our value." - Garrett Gunderson

Take Responsibility for Your Actions

"Responsibility is the key reason why people don't have wealth. You have to be responsible for your actions and reactions. You have to be responsible your next thing that you do, and even for your mindset. And if you don't take responsibility, you can't have prosperity because one doesn't exist without the other." - Garrett Gunderson
