About this listen

The Ordered Life is a podcast about aligning your life, your money, and your decisions with what actually matters.

Hosted by Sean Gregory (Portfolio Manager), AJ Sanson (Associate Investment Advisor), and Anthony De Lazzari (Associate Investment Advisor) of Serviam Capital at iA Private Wealth Inc., the show explores how timeless principles, especially the virtues, can guide modern financial decisions and everyday life.

Drawing from Aristotle, Thomas Aquinas, and lived experience working with families and business owners, each episode bridges philosophy and practical financial thinking. The conversation goes beyond markets and returns to address deeper questions: What is wealth for? What does it mean to live well? How do you make decisions with clarity, discipline, and purpose in a noisy world?

Across episodes, you’ll hear honest discussions on stewardship, discipline, risk, generosity, and long-term thinking. Whether navigating uncertainty, building wealth responsibly, or striving to become a better leader, parent, or professional, The Ordered Life offers a framework for living intentionally.

This is not about chasing outcomes. It is about ordering your life so that your resources, including your wealth, are directed toward the good.

  • Why Kids Don’t Understand Money and How Parents Can Fix It Early
    Apr 28 2026

    How do you actually teach kids about money in a way they understand?

    In this episode, the team breaks down the real challenge parents face when talking to children about money, especially at a young age. From the instinct to spend immediately to the difficulty of grasping abstract concepts like saving and investing, they explore why most financial lessons don’t stick early on and what to focus on instead.

    The conversation centers on practical ways to help children understand that money is finite, that choices involve trade-offs, and that spending should be intentional. Through personal stories and examples, they highlight how kids begin to connect money with effort, why experience and even failure are essential teachers, and how early habits shape long-term financial behavior.

    They also explore deeper ideas around money, including the role of prioritization, the importance of earning before spending, and how parents can begin forming not just good habits, but strong money virtues.

    If you’ve ever wondered how to raise children who are thoughtful, disciplined, and responsible with money, this episode offers a clear and practical starting point.

  • What Faith Has to Do With Investing and the Problem With “Faith-Based Investing” | Mensuram Bonam Part 3
    Apr 14 2026

    What does it really mean to invest?

    In this episode, we move beyond the mechanics of investing and examine the responsibility behind it. Every investment is more than a financial decision. It is an act of entrusting capital, giving authority, and participating in outcomes that affect people, businesses, and the broader world.

    Continuing our discussion of Mensuram Bonam, we explore why investing is never morally neutral and why separating faith from financial decisions creates a divided life. We also address the limits of common approaches to “faith-based investing” and what a more coherent approach requires.

    For those who want to steward their wealth responsibly without compromising what they believe, this conversation offers a clearer framework for thinking about capital, responsibility, and the common good.

    Key ideas discussed: • Investing as an act of moral responsibility • Why capital shapes the future, not just returns • The limits of conventional faith-based investing frameworks • Living with coherence between faith, work, and money

  • Beyond ESG The Real Question Behind Investing and Moral Responsibility | Mensuram Bonam Part 2
    Mar 31 2026

    What does it actually mean to invest responsibly?

    In Part 2 of our introduction to Mensuram Bonam, we move beyond surface-level frameworks like ESG and examine a deeper question: is investing itself a moral act? Drawing from Catholic Social Teaching, this conversation challenges the idea that finance can be separated from ethics, and instead reframes capital as something entrusted to us with purpose.

    We explore the limits of modern “responsible investing,” the risk of using ethics as a marketing tool, and why discernment matters more than labels. The discussion centers on a more demanding but coherent vision: that every financial decision participates in shaping the world, and therefore carries real moral weight.

    This episode is for those who want more than alignment in theory. It is for those seeking a disciplined, thoughtful approach to stewardship that respects both conscience and long-term responsibility.
