We constantly seek guidance from God; this time, He told us that a change was needed to be in alignment with how we serve. And so The Abundant Living Podcast was paused and now rebranded as WEALTH AND WISDOM TOGETHER™ WITH WESLIA AND WILLA.
On Wealth and Wisdom Together™, wherever you are on your journey from financial stress and overwhelm to financial success and fulfillment, we are engaging you to unleash your STEWARD Identity that will guide your spirit, heart, and mind to have wealth and abundance in every area of your life.
On this episode of Wealth and Wisdom Together™, we share why we changed the name, what blocks us from receiving wisdom for wealth, and the perils of wealth without wisdom.
Episode Highlights:
01:46 - Your S.T.E.W.A.R.D. Identity
02:45 - The advantages of the double protection of wealth and wisdom.
