#40 - What’s Your Money Story? with Jennifer Risher Oct 29, 2021

Show notes

A money story is your history and relationship with money and wealth. Did you grow up with enough of it? Are you still insecure about it? Are you afraid to make more of it? Everyone has a money story but not everyone shares them.
