Hear from powerhouse wealth scientist Asia Kuykendall as she breaks down the science of money, mindset shifts, educating the masses (beginning with our youth), tools, strategies, and more. Tune in and share!

About Asia:

Asia Kuykendall is a Wealth Scientist who started her career in 2011 after earning degrees in Finance and Accounting. A financial setback in 2017 led her to realize that technical financial literacy alone wasn't enough to change her money habits and beliefs. This experience inspired her to explore what the wealthy 1% knew that the rest did not, leading to the development of the Quantum Wealth Theory.

Using neuroscience, behavioral psychology, and quantum physics, we can better understand what drives our money choices and use this knowledge to create empowering and productive money beliefs and behaviors.

Asia now focuses on teaching others how to achieve financial success, not just for money's sake, but for the peace, freedom, joy, and love it can bring.
