The Everyday Millionaire and Mindset Matters Podcast

In this powerful episode of Mindset Matters, Patrick and Steffany take listeners deep into the real reason most people struggle with money. It is not math. It is not budgeting. It is not the economy. It is the hidden beliefs about money that were shaped long before adulthood. Many of these patterns were installed through childhood experiences, family dynamics, culture, scarcity, trauma, and early emotional imprinting. Patrick and Steffany explore how every person carries a “money operating system” that unconsciously drives financial behavior. Whether it is fear, tension, guilt, pressure, or discomfort with wealth, these internal patterns influence income ceilings, financial sabotage, overspending, risk avoidance, or the inability to hold on to money. Through personal stories, childhood memories, coaching experiences, and research, they reveal how beliefs like “rich people are greedy,” “money is hard to make,” or “I will be judged if I want wealth” can quietly limit financial possibility. Steffany shares her perspective that money is energy, flow, and exchange, while Patrick opens up about how his upbringing shaped a sense of responsibility and tension around finances. Together they offer listeners three simple prompts to uncover their own money beliefs and begin to rewrite their financial operating system. This episode empowers listeners to examine what they were taught, question inherited limitations, and step into a healthier, more abundant relationship with money. Packed with insight, grounded storytelling, and practical tools, this episode is essential for anyone ready to improve their financial life by upgrading the mindset that drives it.

In this Mindset Matters conversation, Patrick and Steffany explore one of the most misunderstood emotional patterns people face daily. They unpack the real reason we get triggered and why the trigger is rarely the event itself. Instead, it is the story we attach to the moment that activates our nervous system and sends us into reactivity. With honesty, humour and real life examples, they dive into the hidden beliefs and identity based narratives that sit beneath the surface and shape how we respond. Patrick opens with a playful question about whether he triggers Steffany, which leads into a deep discussion about what actually activates our stress responses. They explore how tone of voice, bureaucracy, expectations, old identity wounds and subconscious beliefs like I am not enough or I have to get this right can all intensify the reaction. They also highlight how triggers often clash with meta values like freedom, security or integrity, creating emotional friction that feels bigger than the moment. Together, they offer practical insights for how to pause, breathe and interrupt old patterns. Rather than blaming the person or circumstance, they emphasize the importance of asking What is the story I told myself in that moment. They share personal anecdotes, including Patrick’s well known airport frustrations and a humorous look at “Prince Patrick,” to help listeners see that awareness dissolves emotional charge. This episode is a powerful look at emotional responsibility, self awareness and the freedom that comes from understanding your inner world. It teaches listeners how to stay grounded, reduce reactive behaviour and create healthier relationships by owning their responses with clarity and compassion.
