Yesterday00:41:24Summary readyMost of us blame discipline. Patrick and Steffany think that's the wrong diagnosis.In this episode they unpack why procrastination often has nothing to do with laziness, and everything to do with identity, values, self-worth, and the stories we tell ourselves. Through coaching examples and personal experiences, they explore why some habits stick, why others never seem to, and how small shifts in perspective can finally close the gap between knowing and doing. If you've ever wondered why awareness alone doesn't create change, this conversation will probably feel uncomfortably familiar.

Episode #248 – The Real Reason Most Entrepreneurs Never Feel Wealthy with Garrett Gunderson
3d ago01:08:54Summary readyIn this episode of The Everyday Millionaire Podcast, host Patrick Francey sits down with entrepreneur, author, speaker, financial strategist, and comedian Garrett Gunderson for a wide-ranging conversation about wealth, legacy, purpose, and what money is really meant to do.Garrett explains that his work focuses on helping entrepreneurs keep more of what they earn by reducing unnecessary taxes, interest, investment fees, and inefficient insurance structures. Rather than treating money as the ultimate goal, he challenges listeners to ask a deeper question: what is the money actually for?The conversation explores Garrett’s early entrepreneurial roots, from detailing vehicles as a teenager to entering financial services at 19. He shares how the 2008 financial crisis forced him to confront hard lessons about leverage, ego, integrity, and resilience after losing significant net worth. That experience reshaped his view of success and gave him more compassion for entrepreneurs who appear successful on the outside but are carrying financial, emotional, or relational stress underneath.Patrick and Garrett also dig into family legacy planning, including Garrett’s framework around family offices, family retreats, family constitutions, insurance, and trusts. Garrett argues that legacy is not simply about leaving assets behind. It is about passing on values, relationships, responsibility, and purpose without spoiling the next generation.The episode also touches on writing, creativity, comedy, spirituality, marriage, meditation, self-mastery, and the danger of sacrificing life today for a future that may never feel like enough. Garrett’s core message is clear: money is powerful when it creates options, supports purpose, and strengthens relationships. But when it becomes the master, it can cost people the very things they thought wealth was supposed to protect.

MindShui Way- Episode #241 - Hidden Beliefs vs Limiting Beliefs: The Invisible Forces Shaping Your Life
2w ago00:29:53Summary readyIn this thought-provoking episode of The MindShui Way, Patrick Francey and Steffany Hanlen Francey explore the powerful distinction between hidden beliefs and limiting beliefs, and how both quietly shape our identity, confidence, decision-making, relationships, finances, and future potential.Patrick explains that hidden beliefs are often unconscious assumptions running in the background of our mental operating system, while limiting beliefs are the stories and narratives we consciously repeat without realizing the cost they impose on our lives. Together, they influence everything from our self-worth and confidence to our ability to create success and embrace opportunity.Using relatable examples such as "money doesn't grow on trees," "I'm not good with names," "I'm too old to start again," and "I'll believe it when I see it," Patrick and Steffany unpack how seemingly harmless phrases can become invisible barriers that restrict growth and possibility. They discuss how beliefs inherited from family, culture, and childhood experiences often shape our worldview without our awareness.The conversation also explores the relationship between belief systems and performance, particularly in entrepreneurship, leadership, and elite athletics. Steffany shares insights from her experience coaching world-class athletes, highlighting how breakthroughs often occur when individuals identify and challenge the beliefs that have been limiting them.At its core, this episode is an invitation to examine the stories we tell ourselves and ask whether they are serving us or restricting us.
