You’ll hear about: Why most financial beliefs are inherited, not chosen How fear becomes the filter through which money is taught The Super Bowl commercial conversation—and what it reveals Why “cash isn’t king—cashflow is” The difference between intentional and unintentional education Why the dinner table may be the most formative classroom in your home A real story of investing in growth instead of shrinking back How renewed thinking (Romans 12:2) breaks generational cycles Key ideas to reflect on: What money phrases did you hear growing up? What phrases do your kids hear now? Are you teaching scarcity—or stewardship and flow? What conversations are you avoiding that might actually be forming belief?
