Every generation thinks they had it harder, but what if the truth is, the system changed, not the effort?

In this episode, we’re diving into how ageism shapes the way we talk about money, work, and self-worth , and why it’s fueling a quiet clash between generations.

From Boomers who built their lives during times of stability, to Gen Xers caught in the middle, to Millennials and Gen Z juggling debt and rising costs, we’re unpacking what really created the generational wealth divide.
