We’ve been sold a version of “wealth” that’s all about money, milestones, and packed calendars. But what if true wealth had less to do with your income—and more to do with your alignment?

In this episode of Leading You, I’m joined by wealth and mindset coach Emma Lagerlow, author of Worthy & Wealthy and mum of four, to redefine what it means to live a rich, fulfilling life—on your terms.

We unpack the real cost of the juggle, how values and boundaries unlock freedom, and why choosing what matters most is the greatest investment you’ll ever make. Emma also shares tools from her book including the Wealth Audit and five pillars of a worthy & wealthy life: self-worth, purpose, wellbeing, financial empowerment, and time freedom.

If you’re tired of feeling stretched too thin—and ready to lead with clarity instead of chaos—this conversation is your reset.

In this episode, we explore:
What true wealth means in a world obsessed with productivity
How to shift from urgency to intentional leadership
Why values-based decisions create emotional resilience
The power of boundaries (especially the ones we keep with ourselves)
How to use a “wealth audit” to align your life with what really matters
Emma’s personal rituals for staying grounded, present, and focused
Why self-worth is the foundation of freedom
