Episode Synopsis

In today’s episode of Wisdom Journey, I sat down with Ann Pells—a real estate veteran and financial coach dedicated to helping families achieve true financial freedom. We got real about paying off your home in record time, starting a business (even when you feel you don’t have the skills or cash), and using what you already know to create real value. Ann shared simple, practical steps—like using other people’s money ethically, and why mindset is the first building block to success. What I hope you take away is this: you don’t have to have it all figured out or tons of money to get started. Ask questions, lean into what you’re good at, and remember—every skill you have could be someone else’s solution. Keep believing, keep learning, and go make something happen.
