About Money & Legacy: Debt, Wealth, Family & Career
From the publisher's feed
Money shouldn’t feel this overwhelming — especially when you’re doing everything “right.”
Money & Legacy is a financial clarity podcast for capable, high-functioning…
families who make good money but still feel stressed, uncertain, or stuck when it comes to their finances.
Hosted by Laura Sexton, Money & Legacy Coach and founder of Accelerate Your Legacy, this podcast helps families move from financial overwhelm to clarity — and from clarity to confidence — so they can build a legacy on purpose.
Many families today aren’t struggling because they lack income.
They’re struggling because they’re drowning in information.
Between podcasts, gurus, social media advice, and conflicting opinions, it’s easy to feel frozen — unsure who to trust, which system to follow, or what step actually matters next. When everything feels important, progress stalls.
This show exists to quiet the noise.
Think of Money & Legacy like a conversation with a trusted friend over coffee — where big financial ideas are distilled, simplified, and made tangible for real life with kids, schedules, faith, and long-term goals.
Laura brings both lived experience and professional training to the mic. She and her husband paid off $372,347 in debt, and for more than five years she has coached hundreds of families to gain clarity, reduce financial stress, and move forward with confidence.
Laura is trained in the Dave Ramsey principles of budgeting and debt elimination, as well as Ken Coleman’s clarity-driven approach to decision-making and purpose. Her coaching style is forward-focused, practical, and intentionally impartial — she does not sell financial products or earn commissions — so every recommendation is made solely in her clients’ best interest.
Most episodes are solo teaching conversations, designed to help you:
- Cut through financial overwhelm and gain clarity
- Build a budget that gives permission, not pressure
- Pay off debt with confidence and direction
- Make calm, values-aligned money decisions
- Create simple systems that work for real family life
- Lead money conversations with confidence at home
Occasionally, Laura brings real families onto the show for coaching conversations, where listeners can hear real questions, real numbers, and real breakthroughs — and yes, you can apply to be coached on the show. Select interviews with thoughtful leaders also support listeners on their financial journey without shame or conflicting advice.
At its core, Money & Legacy is about transformation.
This podcast helps you move from:
Overwhelm → Clarity → Confidence
From reaction to ownership.
From stress to peace.
From survival to legacy.
As you keep listening, money will feel calmer.
Your goals will feel clearer.
And your confidence will grow as you lead your finances with intention.
If you’re ready for money to feel simpler, lighter, and aligned with the life you’re building, you’re in the right place.
Subscribe to Money & Legacy so you don’t miss an episode — and share it with a friend you want to see gain clarity, confidence, and a legacy that lasts.
