Why You're Failing at Wealth (And How to Fix It)

You can't build generational wealth on sinking sand. Wellness IS wealth. In the final thoughts of their conversation, Dawn Johnson sits down with ‪@Fitwithkardia‬, wellness coach and personal trainer, to break down creative self-care, the Big Rock philosophy of putting yourself first, and why mental health and physical health are the foundation for financial freedom and legacy. We cover: ✓ How creative self-care helps kids and adults self-regulate ✓ Therapy vs life coaching explained: diagnosis vs life-area growth ✓ Life doesn't have to be miserable: choosing intentional joy ✓ Building generational wellness before generational wealth Kardia's closing word is simple and powerful: life doesn't have to be miserable.
