Episode Synopsis

What if the most important financial decision you ever make is the one you're told not to?In this episode of Secrets to Abundant Living, Amy Sylvis sits down with Pia McFarland, Sales Director and GM at MCI Miritz Citrus Intercontinental LLC, to unpack what it really means to build an abundant life from scratch. A Colgate grad with no formal finance background, no family safety net, and no inherited wealth, Pia has built a life of both financial and personal freedom through bold decisions, self-education, and an unapologetic commitment to doing things differently.From launching a multimillion-dollar business while raising a toddler, to investing in real estate and empowering her son with generational tools, Pia’s journey is anything but traditional. She challenges limiting beliefs around women and money, dismantles the myth of perfection in investing, and proves that courage, not credentials, is the true starting point of wealth-building.If you’ve ever felt behind, boxed in, or uncertain about your next move, this episode will remind you: it’s never too late to rewrite the story.Connect with Pia McFarland:www.linkedin.com/in/pia-henzi-🇺🇸-5a76132/[email protected] with Amy Sylvis:https://www.linkedin.com/in/amysylvis/Contact Us:https://www.sylviscapital.comhttps://www.sylviscapital.com/webinar00:00 Introduction01:23 Meet Our Special Guest: Pia McFarland02:09 Pia's Journey: From Switzerland to Success02:59 Defining Abundance: Opportunities and Risks06:59 Empowering Women in Investing10:55 Financial Education and Responsibility14:50 Creating a Legacy: Securing the Next Generation16:30 Rethinking Financial Strategies for Your Children17:34 The Power of Women in Investing18:18 Learning from Real Estate Mistakes19:07 The Benefits of Syndication21:07 Downsizing and Financial Security25:13 Advice for Breaking Free from the Rat Race27:38 Final Thoughts
