Episode Description Do you ever feel like retirement has left you running on empty—weary, confused, heavier than you’d like, and wondering if this is just what “getting older” feels like?

Retirement is your chance to rewrite the rules, and your health is the foundation for everything you dream of doing next. If you’re ready to shatter the myths of aging and claim the energy and freedom you deserve, this conversation is your wake-up call.

| How Scarcity Mindset Can Affect Retirement | 01 Aug 2025 | 00:43:16 | |
What if the key to a vibrant, fulfilling retirement has less to do with your finances — and everything to do with how you think about them? In this eye-opening conversation, I’m joined by Leisa Peterson — abundance coach, bestselling author, and expert in transforming limiting beliefs around money. Together, we unpack the powerful (and often hidden) influence a scarcity mindset can have on how you approach retirement — from your daily choices to your overall sense of freedom and joy. Leisa shares transformative tools you can begin using today — like meditation, mindfulness, and intentional affirmations — to release fear, shift your money story, and open the door to true abundance. You’ll discover: • Why financial peace has nothing to do with the size of your bank account • How to recognize and rewrite the beliefs that keep you stuck in fear • Practical ways to feel more confident and secure — even if you're starting with limited resources • A fresh perspective that helps you see the opportunities already around you. If you're ready to let go of stress and start designing your next chapter from a place of trust, ease, and empowerment — this episode is packed with golden nuggets to help you do just that. Tune in and start seeing retirement not as a time of limits, but as your most abundant chapter yet.
