Can financial freedom be achieved while addressing environmental and social challenges? Laura Oldanie, a green living and money coach, joins the show to discuss minimalism, designing life, and the fear associated with the notion that we must save up enough money for our entire lives. She explains why FIRE, or Financial Independence, Retire Early, often leads to burnout and why perpetual saving isn’t the solution. Discover how to find freedom and balance now, why money doesn’t equate to status or respect, and the importance of recognizing how much money is "enough" for you.

Listen in as Laura sheds light on forms of capital and currency, emphasizing how thinking about wealth in a broader sense creates resilience. We spend considerable time and energy striving to accumulate wealth for retirement and healthcare in later years, yet often overlook how this stress can contribute to health problems. Laura introduces the concept of regenerative wealth and its benefits, guiding listeners on sustainable wealth-building practices, how to invest in tools that retain their value, and proactive steps you can take toward financial empowerment.
