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.

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by student loans or unsure whether you can build wealth at the same time, this conversation will give you clarity, perspective, and actionable next steps.

In this episode of Dr. Sev Talks Money, I sit down with financial advisor Brenton Harrison to explore one of the biggest financial tensions many women face today. We discuss why income alone does not guarantee financial security, how childhood money experiences shape the way we handle debt and wealth, and why building reserves while paying down debt is not optional, it’s necessary.

Money is deeply emotional, and for many of us, it’s tied to fear, responsibility, and the pressure to get it right.

In this episode titled, Money and Freedom to Live the Life You’re Called to Live, Dr. Sev and her guest, Matt Morizio, explore what it looks like to move from managing money out of fear to using money as a tool for freedom. The conversation examines how faith, financial decisions, and real-life responsibility intersect, especially in seasons when outcomes aren’t guaranteed.

You’ll hear a thoughtful discussion about releasing the need for control, making high-probability money decisions, and learning to trust your next step even when the numbers don’t fully make sense yet. At the heart of it all is a question many of us wrestle with: how do we steward money while still trusting the life we’re called to live?

If you’ve ever felt caught between being “responsible” with money and honoring your calling, this episode offers perspective, clarity, and room to breathe.

Matt Morizio is the founder of Reconstructing Wealth and a financial advisor focused on helping people change their relationship with money.

After spending five seasons in professional baseball and experiencing an abrupt career ending, Matt navigated financial uncertainty, entrepreneurship, and seasons that required deep faith and trust. His work centers on moving from fear and scarcity to clarity and freedom—so money becomes a tool that supports life, not the thing that controls it.

Wealth is more than money in the bank and this episode challenges the idea that you have to rush, grind, or chase quick wins to build it. Dr. Sev is joined by Stoy Hall, founder of Black Mammoth, for a grounded and insightful conversation about redefining wealth and building financial confidence in a healthier, more sustainable way.

This discussion centers on minority women and women business owners navigating overwhelm, responsibility, and high expectations while trying to grow their wealth. Topics include practical wealth-building steps, the emotional side of money, philanthropy as part of financial growth, and why customized financial planning matters.

Listeners are encouraged to rethink what wealth truly means and to embrace a definition rooted in peace, purpose, generosity, and freedom rather than pressure or comparison.

Stoy Hall is the Founder of Black Mammoth and host of the No BS Wealth Podcast. With over a decade of experience in financial services, Stoy focuses on helping business owners and families build wealth in a way that aligns with their values, emotions, and long-term goals.

His work centers on financial education, implementation, and the Modern Family Office approach, designed to remove overwhelm and help clients live freely, give back, and build lasting legacies.
