Welcome to another insightful episode of MOJO: The Meaning of Life and Business! Today, we tackle a topic that runs at the core of both personal fulfillment and professional achievement: self-esteem. Host Jennifer Glass sits down with Rick Salmeron, an independent financial advisor and passionate advocate for personal growth. While Rick Salmeron is well-known for helping people manage their finances, in this conversation he opens up about something even more influential—the internal journey of recognizing your self-worth.

Jennifer Glass and Rick Salmeron explore the origins of self-esteem, how it can be quietly sabotaged by life experiences, and—most importantly—what it takes to rebuild it. Rick Salmeron shares the pivotal moment that changed his trajectory: a seemingly simple three-day class that shattered his old self-perceptions and ignited a new sense of possibility in every area of his life, from relationships to business to personal dreams. They dive into the subtle but powerful habits that can move you from feeling stuck or “tepid” to embracing opportunities with courage and conviction.

Whether you’re struggling with self-doubt, aiming to achieve ambitious goals, or simply want to discover what your own version of success looks like, you’ll find actionable tips and relatable stories throughout the episode. From reflecting on the momentum of our everyday choices to defining success in a deeply personal way, Rick Salmeron reminds us all that we each have the capacity for growth, change, and fulfillment.

Listen in as we uncover what it means to close the “gap” between where you are and where you want to be—and why that gap is often bridged by nothing more than believing you are worthy. This conversation is your invitation to rethink what’s possible for yourself, both in life and in business.
