What if the life you're chasing isn't the life you actually want? In this episode of Get Your House in Order, host Elke Rubach sits down with financial strategist and entrepreneur Mary Lyons, The Wealth Woman, to challenge everything we've been taught about money, success, and happiness. From breaking free of scarcity mindsets to redefining what abundance really means, Mary shares why wealth should be a tool for freedom—not a scorecard for achievement.

Together, they explore how our money stories shape our decisions, why comparing ourselves to others is a losing game, and how intentional financial planning can help create a life that's rich in purpose, joy, and meaningful experiences.

In This Episode:

• Why more money doesn't automatically create more happiness
• The difference between spending to impress and spending to enrich your life
• How to align your finances with your values and dreams
• The conversations every couple should have about money
• Why true wealth is about freedom, not accumulation

At the end of the day, money is just a tool. The real question is: What kind of life are you building with it?
