In this raw, honest, and empowering conversation, Mattis Gilbert, CEO of RSK, joins us to reveal the hidden financial struggles plaguing families that “look” like they have it all together. From luxury cars to pristine weddings, the pressure to keep up is real — but what if true wealth is peace of mind, not a paycheck?
Mattis breaks down why income doesn’t equal stability, and how so many families are suffering silently under the weight of debt, expectation, and lifestyle inflation. He shares how RSK is changing lives by offering real, actionable financial coaching — not just to those in desperate need, but to the forgotten middle: the families who earn good money but still can’t breathe.
This episode challenges everything you thought you knew about money. It’s not just about budgets or spreadsheets — it’s about mindset, marriage, mental health, and building a future that actually works.
If you’ve ever felt like you're doing well but still barely staying afloat, this conversation is for you. And if you’ve ever believed that more money was the answer, it’s time to think again.
Don’t just watch — reflect. Then share this with someone who needs to hear it.
