Leisa Peterson first came on the podcast in 2020 to talk about her first book The Mindful Millionaire, so I’m thrilled to welcome her back to talk about her new book The Money Catalyst where we deep-dive into the topics of scarcity, abundance, nurturing your inner wealth and transforming your relationship with money.
What’s also very different about her new book is that it’s written as a narrative instead of a more traditional how-to style. If you know me, you know I love personal finance books written like this (like The Latte Factor and The Wealth Barber), so if you’re like me, you’ll love this book too!
