85: From $95k in debt to first-class trip around the world: how I did it

Have you ever felt like the odds were stacked against you?  That, somehow, success was a VIP club where your name wasn't on the list?  In this episode I talk with friend and business mentor, Justin Prince, about FLIPPING THE SCRIPT!  Justin Prince felt called at a young age to make a difference. No fancy degree, just big dreams, and a determined heart. He didn’t just knock on the door of success; he kicked it down, raking in over 2+ billion in revenue. You heard that right - billion with a 'B'!🚀 Justin's journey is a testament that being THE ONE in your family - the trailblazer, the trendsetter, the change agent - isn't a matter of pedigree, it's a mindset.  This interview will breathe life into your dreams, friend! There is a call on your life to live audaciously, led by heart and spirit. This is where you find your God-given identity, where bravery meets vulnerability, and where everyday people become the heroes of their own stories. 🎙️❤️ Learn more about Justin and grab his NEW BOOK at www.iamjustinprince.com  ~~~~~~~~  FOLLOW ANGIE ON INSTAGRAM & TIK TOK: @angiegarnerofficial  Book a wealth strategy session with Angie:  https://calendly.com/angiegarner/wealth-strategy-session Learn more about affiliate marketing here: www.angiegarner.com/opportunity Join the WEALTH COMMUNITY: https://www.facebook.com/groups/makebankwithang ‘Answer the Call’ Song by Equanimous

Are you feeling stuck in your personal growth journey?  In this episode, I share some insights on why holding onto grudges (and even not forgiving yourself!) might be blocking your path to a life of abundance.  Unforgiveness traps us in the past. It's like dragging a heavy suitcase wherever we go, hindering our ability to move freely and embrace new opportunities. By refusing to let go, we're actually giving more power to the very things that hurt us.  True growth happens when we step outside our comfort zones. When we forgive, we're not saying what happened was OK, but we are allowing ourselves to shift from being a victim to becoming a victor over our circumstances. It opens doors to stronger relationships, self-respect, and inner peace. If you're ready to answer the call to a more fulfilling life, join me, Angie Garner, on this transformative journey. Here's to growing and thriving TOGETHER!

This week’s interview may seem a little different from my norm - but my goal with the new direction of this podcast is to expose my audience to how ‘answering the call’ is unique to every individual.    Countless different spiritual practices are used throughout the world and although I know many of my listeners lean into the Christian faith - as do I - I do believe hearing stories of other traditions and ways of thinking is important for our ultimate path of healing and discovery.    Ryan and Michelle Meeks have an incredible story of transformation. After leading one of the fastest growing churches in Seattle, they ultimately walked about from religion altogether. They then went on to beat Ryan’s diagnosis of hodgkin's lymphoma, and found profound healing though the sacred use of psychedelics.    Married 25 years and raising 4 kids, they now find joy in coaching individuals and couples as they navigate partnership, sexuality, holistic health and family life.    This is a truthful, heart-felt interview if you remain open. A word of warning, there are a few f-bombs so please don’t listen around the kiddies.    Connect with Ryan & Michelle on Instagram:    @ryantmeeks @revolve.fit    www.ryantmeeks.com/

Listen to this episode to discover how focusing on your feminine can bring you closer to your true essence!  Connect with Amy: https://amynatalieco.com/    

Mike and Janelle Friedrich have been long-time mentors in my life as they cast the vision and led me to success in my first direct sales business (not to mention introducing me to my husband!)  I wanted to have them on the podcast to talk specifically about ‘answering the call’ within marriage.   Mike & Janelle are founders of Marriage Ignite and Identity Point Coaching; they are parents of three littles and are on a mission to help couples live out the Bible’s blueprint for their marriage and end world divorce.   They have GENUINE hearts to serve, as you will hear in this interview.   I ask some tough questions and we get into deep discussions about how God can work through you right now to initiate the shifts needed in your marriage.  I pray this episode gives you HOPE and vision for your sacred union!  Connect with the Friedrich’s: www.marriageignite.net  

Something I heard repeatedly in my early leadership journey was this: “Your business grows when you grow.”  Utilizing the Enneagram has been an essential tool in my growth, and in this episode I talk with the Enneagram Expert herself: Tracy O’Malley  To know Tracy is to witness a woman who has walked through the fire of personal growth and emerged as a gorgeous, powerful, world-changer on the other side.  She is fierce, wicked smart, and has the biggest heart that will nearly always cue the tears as she really SEES you - and then calls it out.  She helps you think and perform differently, uncover and change habits that no longer serve you, and shift your relationship with money by identifying where you are blocked.  In our conversation we go deep fast about what it means to “answer the call” and how to muster the courage to walk it out.  ENJOY!!  Connect with Tracy: www.tracyomalley.com Tracy’s podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/lead-with-the-enneagram-with-host-tracy-omalley/id1491541582 *Theme Song “Answer the Call” by Activation and Equanimous

(Who doesn’t?!)    For many, retirement accounts are the go-to tools to achieve this goal and while these accounts offer some benefits, they may not be as crucial as you might think when it comes to achieving financial freedom.   In this episode, we’ll dive into why retirement accounts matter a lot less than you think they do when it comes to (early) financial freedom.
