Return On Life | Lillian Turner | Growing Money with Sean Trace

I brought on Lillian Turner, a Certified Financial Planner and Registered Life Planner, to talk about money the way real people live it. We dig into money stories, mindset, and why most of us were never taught this stuff in school. Lillian shares how growing up around money stress shaped her beliefs, how she dug out of credit card debt, and why knowledge without implementation keeps people stuck. 

We get into practical coaching, the EVOKE method from George Kinder, and the Three Questions that help you build a values driven plan. We riff on ROL, return on life, and how to balance enjoying your money today with funding your future. We talk abundance over scarcity, experiences over things, and why a spending plan can feel like freedom. Lillian busts the myth that having debt makes you a bad person, shows how the wealthy use tools like debt wisely, and makes the case for money buddies, accountability, and step by step action. 

If you want financial clarity, time freedom, and a life that actually feels good, this episode is for you.
