Why Financial Freedom Isn't What You Think

What if the financial freedom you've been told is the one thing you should be focusing on - the independent, the self-sufficient, the doing it all for yourself - is actually the very thing that's been keeping you from the enriched abundant life you're perhaps seeking? On today's show, I want to talk about financial freedom, and it's so interesting that every single book in the personal finance space, including my own book "It's Not About the Money," refers to this topic as a very individual pursuit. I'm exploring why everything we've been taught about financial independence might actually be the very thing stopping us from creating a better life for ourselves and for others around us.
