In this episode, Behi Shafiei, Founder & CEO of Wealth Bridge Consulting, breaks down the real meaning of financial planning—and why it’s so much more than what you’d get from a bank, accountant, or financial advisor.

We explore the importance of building and protecting wealth, the power of compounding, and how to optimize your financial journey through smart strategies that help you save on taxes, reduce fees, and keep more money in your pocket.

Behi also shares her holistic approach to planning, covering everything from debt reduction to education, lifestyle, investments, and legacy—proving that no matter where you’re starting, you can begin building your wealth today.

In this week’s episode, we go into the real reason you’re not following through, even though you know exactly what to do. These are the blind spots you can’t see: the sneaky thoughts, deep patterns, and quiet self-sabotage that keep looping underneath the surface. If you’re feeling stuck and frustrated with yourself, this will land.

In this episode, I’m joined by Kinnari Patel, a Leadership Alignment Mentor, who walked away from corporate burnout to lead women back to soul-led success. She shares her powerful story of over-functioning, staying busy to avoid going inward, and the moment her body called for deep change.

Now, Kinnari helps high-achieving women reconnect with their bodies, regulate their nervous systems, and lead with calm, clarity, and joy. This conversation is an invitation to create internal safety, even in the midst of external chaos.
