In this episode, Chad and Logan walk through a key chapter from Forging Financial Freedom and talk about why so many people feel stuck when it comes to money—and what to do instead.

Nobody would build a house without a blueprint, yet many approach their finances without a clear plan. Hope feels nice, but it doesn’t replace strategy. Without one, anxiety creeps in and progress stalls. A financial blueprint brings your future goals into the present, breaking big dreams into real steps.

They dig into how discipline and intentionality—not income alone—create freedom. It’s not about waiting for things to calm down; it’s about taking action now, even when things feel uncertain. A blueprint keeps you moving forward, not reacting to every storm.

This episode is about shifting your mindset, connecting today’s choices to tomorrow’s goals, and building a future where you don’t need a paycheck to feel secure.
