Have you ever prayed for better—then doubted it when it came?

In this episode, I get personal. I talk about the time I was a kid sleeping on a motel floor… and how that same kid just came back from a trip to Ibiza, Spain, staying in a beautiful resort. 🙏🏾

But here's the truth: even when God brings us into a better place, the enemy in our mind will try to convince us we’re still stuck in lack.

I share how the enemy whispered doubts, distractions, and fears—even while I was living the very life I prayed for. And I’m telling you: he’s doing the same to you.

🧠 This is a mindset battle.

You’ll never walk into your abundance if you’re still thinking like you’re broke.

💬 In this raw episode, I reveal:

• How I shifted my mindset from survival to overflow

• Why negative thoughts are designed to keep you stuck

• The spiritual discipline it takes to step into your *wealthy place*

• Why gratitude and perseverance are non-negotiables

🎯 If you feel like your mind is your biggest barrier, this one’s for you.

👇🏾 It’s time to break the cycle and live the life you were called to.

Most people think inheriting millions sets you up for life. But what if it actually ruins you?

In this powerful episode, I sit down with Paul Deloughery, an Arizona-based asset protection attorney and author of Probate Made Simple and Lasting Wealth. Paul shares the emotional and financial journey of meeting his biological father just weeks before he passed—and suddenly inheriting $28 million.

But here's the truth: Paul wasn’t ready for the money.

The lack of preparation nearly cost him everything.

He now helps families put real plans in place so they don’t fall into the same trap. Whether it’s creating a will, trust, or learning how to handle money before it arrives—Paul breaks it down so you can protect your legacy and build lasting wealth.

In Episode 126 of the Wealth Is a Journey Podcast, I challenge you to take a real look in the mirror. Because the truth is — nothing changes financially until you do. That means hard conversations with yourself (and maybe even your spouse), identifying spending triggers, and deciding who you're willing to become to reach your goals.

🎯 Here’s what we break down:

The tough conversation I had with my wife — and why it changed everything

How to give yourself structure and freedom with your spending

Why identifying your financial vision is step one — not step three

In this episode of the Wealth Is a Journey Podcast, I sit down with 21-year-old investor Jaden Smith (IG: @jsmit._)—a young man with serious goals and a mindset that sets him apart.

While his parents worked hard to give him a comfortable life, Jaden refuses to coast. His goal? Become a millionaire by age 30—and he’s already putting in the work.

We talk about:

✅ Why he’s investing early

✅ How mindset matters more than money

✅ What drives him to build his own wealth

✅ Why every parent would want their child around someone like him

This isn’t just another “young investor” story. It’s a blueprint for ambition, discipline, and real ownership. Tune in—you’ll want your kids to hear this too.

Let’s talk about what really separates the rich from the poor — and it’s not just income.

In this episode, I break down 3 hidden reasons many people stay stuck financially:

💢 Jealousy – Instead of being inspired by others, some let envy keep them from taking action.

⏳ Time – Are you spending hours watching celebrity trials… or working toward your goals?

🚫 Execution – Rich people don’t wait for everything to be perfect. They start ugly, stay consistent, and refine as they grow.

If you're ready to stop making excuses and start making progress, this episode is for you.

🎯 Wealth isn't built by watching — it's built by doing.

In this episode, I reflect on the power of not giving up—even when things don’t look like they’re working out.

There were moments in my journey when quitting would’ve made sense to most people. But I’ve learned that breakthrough comes after obedience, and often, right after your hardest season. If you’re trying to build wealth, start a business, or just stay committed to your goals—this one’s for you.

I share personal stories, mindset shifts, and the one question that keeps me going when things get hard:

👉 What if I had quit right before it worked?

-

Key Takeaways:

* The emotional cost of giving up too early

* Why most people miss their financial breakthrough

* How to stay focused when the results aren’t instant

* The connection between perseverance, faith, and long-term wealth

In this episode of the Wealth is a Journey Podcast, I talk about something we don’t hear enough: you can’t build wealth on clutter—emotional, relational, or financial.

We all want the rewards—comfort, freedom, success—but most of us skip the part where we clear the space first. Just like you wouldn’t build a house on unstable ground, you can’t build financial freedom without clearing out what’s holding you back.

That means:

* Walking away from people and habits that don’t serve you

* Cutting unnecessary expenses (minimum payments are killing your progress)

* Rethinking why you work—it’s not just to pay bills

* Paying off debt and finally starting to invest

This episode isn’t just about money—it’s about making room for the life you actually want.

In this episode of the Wealth is a Journey Podcast, I sit down with Cheryl Graham @vybe\_with\_cheryl to talk about her incredible journey from financial struggle to freedom.

Cheryl shares how growing up without financial guidance led her to make decisions that caught up with her in adulthood—even while earning over $200K per year. She opens up about the emotional weight of carrying $90,000 in IRS debt for over 20 years, and how she and her husband finally broke free after years of financial stress and despair.

But this isn’t just a story about money—it’s also about health, legacy, and vision.

As a nurse and founder of a mobile IV hydration business, Cheryl helps high-income earners stay energized and focused. Her mission? To bring wellness to even more people by expanding into airports and cruise ships in the near future.

Her past doesn’t define her—but it fuels her purpose.
