Money as a Catalyst for Change with Leisa Peterson

In this week’s episode, Katelyn sits down with Leisa Peterson, money coach, author, and founder of WealthClinic, to explore the deeper connection between wealth, worthiness, and self-awareness.

A former financial advisor turned mindful money mentor, Leisa helps entrepreneurs revolutionize their relationship with money by addressing the mindset and behavioral patterns traditional finance often ignores.

With over 30 years of experience in wealth management, Leisa shares how money can serve as a mirror for our inner world, revealing patterns of scarcity, fear, or overgiving that keep us from living in abundance. She also discusses how awareness and self-reflection are the first steps toward lasting financial freedom, and how aligning giving and receiving creates balance at the heart (and heart chakra) of true wealth.

From her Mindful Millionaire framework to lessons learned through her new parable, The Money Catalyst, Leisa reminds us that building wealth isn’t just about numbers; it’s about healing, reinvention, and permission to live fully.

This is an episode for anyone ready to explore the energetic and emotional side of money and use wealth as a tool for deep, lasting change.

Key Takeaways

  • Money can be a mirror for personal growth, not just a means of exchange.
  • Awareness and honesty about your relationship with money create the foundation for change.
  • Balancing giving and receiving helps heal feelings of scarcity and overgiving.
  • Wealth gives you freedom to reinvent yourself, make aligned choices, and live fully.
  • Everyone’s version of abundance looks different, and that’s the beauty of it.
