    47. Redefining Wealth: How Faith, Cancer, and Motherhood Transformed Megan Westmoreland
    Nov 13 2025
    In today’s deeply moving episode of Talk Wealthy To Me, Michelle sits down with Megan Westmoreland — wife, mom of three, entrepreneur, cancer survivor, writer, and the hype-girl every woman wishes she had in her corner. Megan shares her powerful journey from a “normal life” to a sudden stage two breast cancer diagnosis… and then, later, a devastating stage four metastatic update. Through it all, she found joy in grief, laughter in pain, and God’s goodness in every valley.

    This is an episode about redefining wealth — not just the financial kind, but the kind found in faith, perspective, resilience, and community. Together, Michelle and Megan unpack:

    ✨ Finding peace after the words “you have cancer”
    ✨ Navigating motherhood through treatment
    ✨ The privilege and reality of financially preparing for a crisis
    ✨ Why women must rethink the way we save, spend, and steward money
    ✨ Tithing, purpose, and living NOW
    ✨ Creating a “YOLO with wisdom” mindset
    ✨ How adversity can launch you into your calling
    ✨ Megan’s upcoming book, her heart for helping women, and her new consulting work

    If you’ve ever walked through hardship — cancer, motherhood, infertility, loss, entrepreneurship, burnout, or simply feeling tired of life — this episode will meet you exactly where you are. Megan’s story reminds us that wealth isn’t just money — it’s breath in your lungs, joy in the small moments, and the courage to live fully today.
