About this listen

Money is the fuel of possibility. Managing it well is possibility lived. Managing it poorly is possibility stolen.

We say it’s “just money” – but it never is. Money shapes our lives — where we live, what we dream about, how secure we feel, what we think we’re worth, what we think we deserve. And it’s not just about numbers. It’s about who we are, what we believe, and the stories we tell ourselves.

Join our hosts, Doretta and Li, for deep conversations on money and meaning.

Because Money is never just Money.
