How to Build Prosperity in Life (with John Soforic)

Lack of money can leave you at the mercy of others. On the other hand, money can give you power, control, and confidence over your life. But how do you build prosperity in your life to gain financial freedom? In this show, my guest, Dr. John Soforic, and I discuss his book, The Wealthy Gardener. We talk about lessons that can help you live a prosperous life and gain financial freedom. John was a once chiropractor with 200k in student debt. He retired at 49 with a retirement income of $240,000, then wrote a book for his son in college: The Wealthy Gardener: Lessons on Prosperity between Father and Son. The book became an Amazon bestseller, hit #46 worldwide on audible, and has been translated into 6 languages.
