Taking Responsiblity for Personal Finance and the Racial Wealth Divide, With Patrice Washington

CUSTOM JAVASCRIPT / HTML

Today’s guest is Patrice Washington but you may know her as America’s Money Maven. Patrice is an award-winning author, transformational speaker, hope-restoring coach, media personality and top-rated host of the Redefining Wealth Podcast where she teaches the masses to “chase purpose, not money.”

She got her start as a personal finance expert and garnered tremendous success with her “mindset approach” to money as the recurring voice on the nationally syndicated, Steve Harvey Morning Show. Her message reached millions as she shared her story of launching her first business out of college to 7-figure success only to end up scraping up change at the height of the Great Recession.

She’s rebuilt her life brick by brick and encourages women, in particular, to have “wealth” in all aspects of their lives by pursuing their purpose, being fulfilled, and earning more without ever chasing money.

In this episode, Patrice and host Lauryn Williams discuss the racial wealth divide in a new light with a message you might not have heard before.

In this episode, we discuss:

  • The false sense of security that comes from thinking you’ve “made it”
  • ​Why personal finance is your personal responsibility
  • ​The importance of starting the conversation instead of waiting to be invited into it
  • ​Why people need to stop pretending they “don’t see color”
  • ​The difference it makes to “chase purpose not money”
