His latest work, "The Hidden Heist: Stop Robbing Yourself of Lasting Wealth," explores the unconscious barriers that prevent people from achieving financial stability and how to overcome them. 

The core of the discussion revolves around Cates' new book, "The Hidden Heist: Stop Robbing Yourself of Lasting Wealth," a parable that provides readers with the tools to overcome self-sabotage and harness true wealth potential.

Through realistic storytelling, Cates tackles themes of self-worth, entrepreneurship, and the collective impact of financial literacy. The episode underscores the importance of understanding one's money story, seeking financial education, and reshaping financial beliefs to ensure a better future.
