Coming up next on Passion Struck.
Those people that are born rich and then they become adults, they actually have really terrible money habits. And that's why short sleeves are short sleeves in three generations, because they're not taught how to earn, like the way of thinking, I need to earn, I need to be... vigilant about my money. It doesn't just come, I have to work for it. I have to manage it.
And this is what we talk about in our book of, you know, we use some language that can be offensive because we talk about poor, we say poor people and we say rich people, but we're actually not talking about money at all. We're talking about a way of thinking.

Before we jump in to today's powerful episode, let's take a moment to reflect on the inspiring conversation we had earlier this week with Glenn Phillips, frontman of Toad the Wet Sprocket.
Glenn shared deeply personal reflections on change, loss, and finding meaning through life's most challenging transitions. It was a heart-opening exploration of his album, Swallowed by the New, where Glenn poured his experiences with separation and grief into music that resonates with anyone navigating life's unexpected twists. If you missed it, I highly recommend going back and listening.
It's a must-hear for anyone seeking to transform adversity into growth. For those of you who want to take these insights even deeper, don't forget to sign up for my Live Intentionally newsletter.
