Living Your Greatness


Apr 4, 2022

Ben Mumme is the founder, curator, and podcast host of the Living Your Greatness Podcast. The purpose of the podcast is to inspire millions of people across the world to achieve greatness and enhance their overall personal well-being. 

Living Your Greatness is becoming the go-to resource that CEOs, elite athletes, professional coaches, and entrepreneurs rely on to upgrade themselves. The podcast helps you master the best of what other people have already figured out.

Ben starts off the episode by explaining that getting started with managing your own finances can be rather daunting in the face of financial goals (i.e. buying your first house, clearing debt that has spiralled out of control, etc.). 

Ben discusses that financial wellness is not only about striking off your own financial goals but it’s a lifetime discipline of achieving your current and subsequent financial goals that you want to meet. People who have higher levels of financial confidence tend to have better results with day-to-day money and debt management than those with low levels of confidence. 

Ben explains that financial wellness includes three different elements of an individual’s financial situation and their attitude towards it: financial health, financial well-being and financial literacy.

Ben believes that financial wellness is achieved when people can apply financial knowledge confidently to manage their economic lives effectively. That includes making good financial decisions, spending within one’s means, planning adequately for emergencies, and preparing for the future.

Ben shares 5 healthy habits that build financial wellness:

  1. Have a reliable income
  2. Make a budget and stick to it
  3. Create a solid financial plan
  4. Pay yourself first before anything else
  5. Work with a financial expert

Ben explains that financial wellness doesn’t happen overnight. You need to take constant, intentional steps toward your financial goals to slowly work your way toward a total picture of wellness. Your financial wellness is an important part of avoiding financial mistakes and planning for a strong, secure future.
