Title: Good Money Revolution
Author: Derrick Kinney
Category: Personal Finance & Investing, Psychology & Human Behavior
What if everything you thought about money was backward? Sam and Sophie sit with Derrick Kinney's radical idea that the goal isn't a number—it's the life you want to build.
They walk through Kinney's framework for shifting from a scarcity mindset to one of intentionality and generosity. The episode covers the tyranny of the financial number, aligning work with values, the multiplier effect of giving, and redefining risk as living a life that isn't your own. A story about a couple who gave while in debt shows how generosity changes your identity.
If you've ever felt anxious about money or trapped in the earn-more-spend-less cycle, this episode offers a new lens. The takeaway: stop chasing a number and start asking what kind of life you want—then use your money to build it.
