From Getting Rich to Living Richly (Ep. 88)

From Getting Rich to Living Richly (Ep. 88)

So often, we believe that if we could just make more money, hit a certain number, or achieve a particular level of success, then we’d finally feel secure, fulfilled, and at peace. But what happens when you get there? What happens when you’ve won the money game, and yet you’re still asking bigger questions about purpose, identity, freedom, relationships, and legacy? On this episode of Money is Emotional podcast, host Christine Luken is joined by Moa Diseborn, the founder of Studio Molodi, a private world for people who have achieved significant financial success and are exploring what comes next. She works with discreetly wealthy entrepreneurs, investors, and visionaries who want more than external success—they want a life that feels rich from the inside out. Her philosophy is simple: when money is no longer the main problem, the real work begins. Moa is known as “The Secret Millionaire’s Best Friend,” and on this episode we’re diving into the journey from getting rich to living richly. Christine and Moa discuss: * The biggest surprises people discover when they arrive at the level of wealth they once dreamed about. * The difference between getting rich and living richly. * Why many wealthy individuals go out of their way to downplay their wealth? * How someone’s identity evolves as they accumulate wealth? * How wealthy people maintain authentic relationships while creating healthy boundaries around their time, energy and resources.   Resources: * Alex Hormozi & Tony Robbins Interview on Purpose & Money [https://youtu.be/xz-ymFOhBAE?si=U8bfWLt95tRcVHsQ]   Connect with Christine Luken: * The Merchant Priestess™ [https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/2122.png] Path [http://merchantpriestess.com/] * Becoming the Benefactor Course [https://bit.ly/BecomingBenefactor] * Connect with Christine Luken for financial coaching [https://www.christineluken.com/apply/] * Join the Wealthy Woman Book Club® [https://www.christineluken.com/wealthy-woman-book-club-join-now/]   Connect with Moa Diseborn: * Website: Studio Molodi [https://www.molodi.se/] * Instagram: studio_molodi [https://www.instagram.com/studio_molodi/]

R. Hutzel is a storyteller of soul-stirring fantasy. Her books are portals—infused with love, loss, magic, and memory. She is the author of Fable of Eylan, a fantasy series born from grief and shaped by wonder—written for those who believe magic is real… and love never dies. Her journey began with a bestselling debut novel and has since grown into a body of work that bridges soul and story. Her work is an invitation to transformation—a reminder that the stories we tell shape the lives we live… and that sometimes, losing yourself in a story is the truest path to finding your way home. When she’s not writing, you’ll find her walking with her golden retrievers, barefoot in the garden, or curled in a hammock with a book—losing herself in the pages, always listening for the next chapter in her own story.

The Four Elements of Money (Ep. 84)

On this episode, host Christine Luken, the Financial Dignity Coach and host of the Money is Emotional podcast, presents a transformative approach to personal finance by integrating practical money management with emotional intelligence, mindset work, and spiritual alignment. Her framework is based on the ancient symbolism of the four elements—Earth, Water, Air, and Fire each representing a vital dimension of our relationship with money. Christine discusses: * The multidimensional nature of Money and how it encompasses the physical (earth), emotional (water), mental (air), and spiritual (fire). * Why money is deeply personal and emotional, requiring a blend of practical skills and inner work. * The importance of emotional intelligence and how it helps to overcome blocks like shame, anxiety, and impulsive spending. * How mindset work helps to reshapes unconscious beliefs and aligns thoughts with financial goals. * How spiritual alignment turns money into a tool for greater good, reflecting personal values and morality.   Resources: * If you’re interested in working with me 1:1 to help you break out of your money comfort zone and reach new heights of financial success, apply for Financial Dignity® Coaching here: https://www.christineluken.com/apply/ [https://www.christineluken.com/apply/] * Foundations of Financial Dignity® course for financial coaches, advisors, and tax professionals to help their clients with the emotional side of money: https://foundations-of-financial-dignity-self-study.teachery.co/buy-now [https://foundations-of-financial-dignity-self-study.teachery.co/buy-now] * Magnetic Money Mindset® Course: https://bit.ly/magneticmindsetcourse [https://bit.ly/magneticmindsetcourse]  Save $111 with promo code MINDSET111 * Wealthy Woman Book Club® https://www.christineluken.com/wealthy-woman-book-club-join-now/ [https://www.christineluken.com/wealthy-woman-book-club-join-now/]   Connect with Christine Luken:  * Christine Luken, Financial Dignity® Coach  [https://www.christineluken.com/financial-professionals/foundations-financial-dignity/] * LinkedIn: 7 Pillars, LLC [https://www.linkedin.com/company/7-pillarsllc/] * LinkedIn: Christine Luken [https://www.linkedin.com/in/financialdignitycoach/] * Instagram: Christine Luken [https://www.instagram.com/christineluken/] * Facebook: Christine Luken [https://www.facebook.com/FinancialDignityCoach/] * TikTok: Christine Luken [https://www.tiktok.com/@christine.m.luken] * YouTube: Christine Luken [https://www.youtube.com/@ChristineLuken] * Hello@ChristineLuken.com [hello@christineluken.com] * The Wealthy Woman Book Club™ [https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/2122.png] [https://www.christineluken.com/wealthy-woman-book-club-join-now/] * Loved this episode?
