  How To Find Your Financial North Star | Otto Rivera | Growing Money with Sean Trace

  Aug 20, 202638 min

  I sat down with Otto Rivera, a certified financial planner who built his entire career out of loss. He lost his mother at 18 after his father's terminal diagnosis, dropped out of college, worked forklift jobs and kitchen shifts to support his 3 younger brothers, and eventually found his way back to school and into finance at General Electric, before launching his own practice, Mindful Wealth Planning. We talk about faith, isolation, and why community is the antidote to almost every hard season in life. We also get into the emotional side of money, why "financial freedom" means something different for every person, and the advice he'd give his younger self standing at rock bottom. If you could give your younger self one piece of financial advice, what would it be?

  What My Rescue Puppy Taught Me About Money Trauma | Growing Money with Sean Trace

  Aug 20, 202612 min

  Nai came into our lives scared, nervous, and unsure if she was safe. Now she is one of the most loving little dogs you could imagine. That transformation got me thinking about money. A lot of us carry financial fear from things that happened years ago. Maybe it was growing up without enough, losing money, getting into debt, or simply never feeling financially secure. And even when life gets better, that fear can stick around. In this episode of Growing Money, I talk about Nai, what it took for her to finally feel safe, and why healing our relationship with money can work the same way. Sometimes building wealth is not just about earning more. Sometimes it is about finally believing you are safe.

  Why Debt-Free People Still Feel Guilty Spending | Justin Bennett | Growing Money with Sean Trace

  Aug 17, 202644 min

  I sit down with Justin Bennett, owner of Strong Tower Consulting and author of Level Up Your Finances, to unpack why so many of us feel broke even when we're earning more than ever. We dig into the real reason budgets fail, why a budget is really just a glorified shopping list, and how tracking every small purchase reveals the death by a thousand cuts that quietly drains bank accounts. Justin also opens up about the shame so many people feel around money and why courage, not perfection, is what actually changes a financial trajectory. What's one small daily purchase you didn't realize was quietly adding up until you actually tracked it?

  Why Rich People Still Feel Like Impostors | DonJay Rice FBS® | Growing Money with Sean Trace

  Aug 12, 202642 min

  I sat down with DonJay Rice, a financial behavior specialist who spent 28 years as a financial advisor before dedicating his career entirely to the emotional and psychological side of money. We dig into why so many of us carry hidden money beliefs formed in childhood, why budgeting classes fail nine out of ten people, and why knowledge alone never changes behavior. Donjay breaks down the three money personalities: distant, domineering, and dutiful and explains how our subconscious hijacks our decisions the moment we feel unsafe. We talk about stress spending, money guilt among high earners, the shame of feeling like you're "bad with money". Which money personality do you think you are: distant, domineering, or dutiful and where do you think that belief first came from?

  Redefining What Wealth Means | Danielle Frazier | Growing Money with Sean Trace

  Aug 10, 202642 min

  In this episode of Growing Money with Sean Trace, I sit down with Certified Financial Planner Danielle Frazier to explore what financial success actually looks like beyond expensive cars, luxury purchases, and the version of wealth we constantly see on social media. Danielle brings more than 20 years of experience in financial services, along with a background in psychology, which makes this conversation less about numbers and more about our relationship with money. We talk about financial peace, lifestyle creep, instant gratification, saving consistently, and why having more money doesn’t automatically create happiness. We also dig into the difference between looking wealthy and actually building financial security, why social media can distort our definition of success, and how having savings can turn a financial disaster into a manageable inconvenience. Danielle shares why contentment, preparation, balance, and understanding your personal “why” may matter more than chasing an arbitrary number in your bank account. If money is supposed to improve your life, what would financial success actually look like for you?
