Episode Details

In this episode we are joined by Julien and Kiersten Saunders, co-creators of rich & REGULAR and authors of 'Cashing Out: Win the Wealth Game by Walking Away'. What started as a blog in 2017 has grown into a multimedia powerhouse, all centered around their mission… to inspire better conversations about money. Hear why Julien walked out of corporate life before he had 'FU money,' and how Kiersten's Valentine's Day resignation collided with the pandemic. They also talk to us about:

• Their 15-year 'Cashing Out' career sprint
• The power of 'Money on the Table' (think Anthony Bourdain meets FIRE)
• The joy of raising an eight-year-old who calls 78-year-olds his besties
• A reminder that aiming for the heart—rather than the wallet—can turn any late start into a blockbuster finale
