Align Your Finances And Values For Success

This episode provides a critical conversation with Kathy Poss, a financial clarity coach dedicated to empowering women to navigate their financial journeys confidently and clearly. Our discussion opens the door to addressing a topic many women find challenging—money management and wealth building. Kathy, through her extensive experience and personal journey, offers her perspective on how women can redefine their relationship with finances.

Kathy shares her compelling story, from working as a CPA for over 30 years to facing unexpected health issues and a subsequent divorce, which reshaped her outlook on money and life. These experiences fueled her transition into financial coaching, where she now helps women transform their money skills into powerful tools for independence and growth. Kathy emphasizes the emotional component of money management and how understanding one's financial behaviors and attitudes can unlock a path to greater financial stability and peace.

Throughout the conversation, Kathy outlines her wealth road map built on three fundamental building blocks: discovering your 'wealth why,' aligning financial behaviors with personal values, and strategically investing in ways that are personally fulfilling and sustainable. She encourages women to celebrate their financial wins—big and small—and to find joy in financial growth and learning.

Join us as we explore the transformational journey of taking control of your finances, aligning your money management with your life goals, and eradicating the shame and fear often associated with financial discussions. Tune in, relax, and get inspired to take charge of your financial future.
