Most people are taught a simple story about money. Work hard. Accumulate. Protect. And someday, when you feel rich enough, give back. The problem is that day almost never comes. And even worse, the story is backwards.
In this episode, Blaine Feyen breaks down why giving is not a reward for wealth but one of the primary mechanisms that creates it. Not performative giving. Not emotional leftovers. Real giving. The kind that is quiet, uncomfortable, and detached from outcome.
This conversation goes far beyond money. You will learn why scarcity has little to do with income and everything to do with fear, how hoarding kills momentum, and why wealth behaves more like a current than a stockpile. Blaine introduces a practical framework for understanding five distinct forms of giving, from financial resources to time, capability, access, and structural support that can change someone's trajectory.
The episode also tackles a controversial idea. Sometimes the most generous act is not giving something away for free but charging for it. You will hear why pricing, commitment, and attention are deeply connected.
If you want to escape scarcity thinking and start operating like someone who has more than enough, this episode will challenge how you see giving, wealth, and yourself.
