Money stress doesn't just affect your bank account. It affects your peace, your relationships, and the stories you carry about what you deserve.

In this live episode of Dr. Sev Talks Money, I sat down with LaQueshia Clemons, LCSW, TOM®, AFC®, a Financial Therapist and founder of Freedom Life Therapy and Wellness, for a conversation that goes beneath the surface.

LaQueshia brings something rare to this space. She blends clinical therapy with financial education to help us understand the emotional side of money in a way that actually leads to healing and change.

In this episode of Dr. Sev Talks Money, I sit down with Dr. Amirra Condelee, a pediatric occupational therapist turned fintech founder, to discuss the hidden wealth gap affecting many high-achieving professionals.

Together, we discuss the financial pressures many successful professionals quietly face, the mindset shifts needed to build wealth, and why financial literacy is critical for closing the gap between looking successful and feeling financially secure.

After paying off more than $500,000 in student loan debt, Dr. Amirra and her husband co-founded RouteFin, a financial marketplace designed to connect healthcare professionals with trusted financial experts, resources, and education all in one place.

In this conversation, we cover:

• Paying off $500K in student loan debt and the lessons that came with it

• The financial literacy gap in healthcare and other high-income professions

• Why success on paper doesn't always translate to financial security

• How mindset and money habits shape long-term wealth

• The mission behind RouteFin and helping professionals navigate their financial lives

In this episode of Dr. Sev Talks Money, I’m joined by attorney and private money lender Ashlee Edwards to explore private money lending, what it is, how it works, and how it differs from investing in stocks or owning rental property.

Private lending is often misunderstood. Some see it as risky. Others confuse it with syndications or hard money lending. Ashlee brings clarity to the conversation by breaking down secured vs unsecured loans, risk mitigation strategies, and how professionals can use capital more intentionally.

We also discuss:

• The difference between a loan and an equity investment
• How to protect your principal before funding a deal
• Questions cautious investors should ask
• A costly $35,000 investing mistake — and the lessons behind it
• Why financial clarity matters more than hype

If you’re curious about alternative wealth-building strategies beyond traditional saving and investing, this episode offers practical insight and a grounded perspective.

This conversation is part of the Women on the Move series, highlighting women expanding access to financial knowledge and strategy.
