How to Find Nuggets of Gold in Your Relationships
Gold, wealth. Shining, shimmering, splendor. When we think of riches and money and wealth, it’s easy to think about it in the traditional fashion - stocks, bonds, investments, trusts, and cold hard dolla dolla bills.
But how does money work...I mean, reeeeeeaally.
Everything in life is a relationship.
You have a relationship with your body.
A relationship with your business.
And, yes, even a relationship with your money.
Money is transferred through relationships.
That’s where the GOLD is.
Banks have relationships with other banks.
People have relationships with public companies (aka stocks).
You have a relationship with your family (aka trust.)
It is in the relationships of our money that we navigate the waters with our money.
Did you know that an unprecedented $68 trillion will pass between generations over the next 25 years?
And...sadly...
70% of family wealth is LOST by the second generation AND...
90% of family wealth is LOST by the third generation.
You’re working hard to build a better life for your kids and 70% of them will blow it?
WTF, RIGHT!!!
THE REALITY IS ONE-THIRD OF FAMILIES REPEAT SUCCESS OVER AND OVER AGAIN, WHILE MOST FAMILIES FACE THE HIDDEN PERILS OF GENERATIONAL WEALTH.
And it’s not because they don't understand money.
It’s because we don’t understand or nurture the GOLD that is in our relationships.
Trust.
Candid Communication.
Authentic Connection.
That’s the WEALTH that is in your relationships.
Are you nurturing that GOLD?
That’s why I am honored to speak inside of my friend, Christina Maggiano’s Legacy by Design series. She has gathered over 20+ exceptional minds from CEOs to marriage and family experts, to financial thought leaders, to equip and inspire families to nurture the GOLD in their relationships.
I’ll admit, I didn’t expect to be doing an interview on generational wealth a week after my dad died, but the timing could not have been better. For everything we discuss, I was IN! Much of what you will learn from these other speakers I went through.
I AM BLESSED THAT MY RELATIONSHIP WITH MY PARENTS HAS BEEN IN A GREAT PLACE FOR THE PAST 4 YEARS OF TRUST AND CONNECTION SO THAT MY MOM AND I COULD NAVIGATE THESE NEW WATERS TOGETHER.
And, this experience has taught me so much about what I need to have prepared for my kids and what I want to BUILD for them, so they will be supported when my day comes to pass on my own legacy.

My dad’s death reinforced this valuable lesson - the RELATIONSHIPS that carry on after you’re gone are your real legacy.
The money is a bonus.
THE RELATIONSHIPS, THE STORIES PEOPLE WILL SHARE ABOUT YOU. THOSE ARE HOW YOU LIVE ON BEYOND YOUR YEARS.
What will they be saying about you?
Remember, your reign is now.
