    Rachel Jimenez: Money Hacking Mama, $497K on Etsy, Financial Independence, Achievement & Happiness | FRLP 118
    Oct 28 2026
    Rachel Jimenez built an Etsy side hustle into a six-figure business and left her full-time job. Today, freedom looks like going to the gym at 10 a.m., having control over her schedule, and choosing work because she wants to do it. But when you could stop working, what keeps you going? And how do you know when the pursuit of achievement is making your life better—or simply giving you another goal to chase? In this episode of the Fit Rich Life Podcast, I sit down with Rachel, the founder of Money Hacking Mama, whom I met at FinCon in Palm Springs. Rachel shares how she went from juggling a full-time job, graduate school, and two young children to building an online business that gave her more control over her time. We trace her financial independence journey back to discovering Mr. Money Mustache, working toward a 50% savings rate, and building wealth alongside her husband. Then we get into the business itself. Rachel explains how she found opportunities selling digital products on Etsy, why researching what people already want changed her results, and how she kept going when her shop wasn't making much money. We talk about the first sale that makes online income feel real, what "passive" income actually requires, and how AI is changing the opportunity for creators. We also explore achievement, happiness, and the moving target of "enough." Rachel and her husband reached their original FI number, but a bigger home and different lifestyle goals changed the calculation. She shares why she believes she could stop working, why she still chooses to teach and create, and what she gets from helping other people build Etsy shops, grow online businesses, and move toward financial independence. I also open up about the pull of returning to a high-paying career despite loving the freedom I already have. Finally, Rachel shares how she uses the PERMA model—positive emotion, engagement, relationships, meaning, and accomplishment—to make more room for happiness in everyday life. We talk about scheduling date nights, finding people who support your goals, making movement enjoyable, and building a life that feels good while you're working toward what's next.

    Carl Jensen: Retired At 43, 1500 Days To Freedom, The Death March To FI, Learning To Spend & Finding Happiness | FRLP 117
    Oct 14 2026
    Carl Jensen retired at 43. Learning to enjoy the freedom he'd built took years longer. In this episode of the Fit Rich Life Podcast, I sit down with my friend Carl, creator of 1500 Days to Freedom, for an honest conversation about achieving financial independence — and figuring out what to do with your life once you get there. Carl shares how a stressful software career led him to Google "how to retire early," discover Mr. Money Mustache, and build a plan to leave his job. He also opens up about what he calls his "death march" to financial independence: working 80–100 hours a week between his job, house renovations, and blog while sacrificing sleep, fitness, and time he can never get back. We explore why the first several years of early retirement felt surprisingly unsettling, how the drive that helps you build wealth can make it difficult to slow down, and why Carl is finally learning to do things simply because he enjoys them. I also share how friendship, community, and pickleball helped me work through my own identity crisis after leaving my career. Then we get into learning to spend. Carl explains why buying a $10,000 private concert pushed him outside his comfort zone, how he's becoming more comfortable paying for meaningful experiences, and why extreme frugality can eventually get in the way of the life you saved for. We talk about shifting from maximizing your net worth to maximizing your net life — and using money to make the things you already love even better. Carl also breaks down his 25,000-step-a-day walking habit, how he combines strength training with hours of movement, and the workout mistake that held back his progress for years. Finally, we explore the connection between childhood experiences and constant achievement, separating self-worth from productivity, and using Stoicism to find more gratitude in everyday life.

    Rachel Richards: Money Honey, Early Retirement, Self-Worth, Defining Enough, Better Body & More | FRLP 116
    Sep 30 2026
    Rachel Richards retired from her corporate career at 27 after building a real estate portfolio that generated enough income to cover her living expenses. Then she built Money Honey Rachel — a successful online business with books, courses, a mastermind, and hundreds of thousands of followers. But when that business was on track to generate approximately $600,000-$700,000 in annual profit, she decided to shut it down. In this episode, Rachel shares why she walked away, how her dream of becoming an author turned into an influencer job she resented, and the identity crisis she wasn't prepared for when the income, engagement, and external validation stopped. We explore the difference between net worth and self-worth, why financially independent people keep chasing money they don't need, and how to recognize when you already have enough. I also open up about my own struggles with achievement, childhood financial insecurity, and the temptation to return to a high-paying career despite loving the life I have now. Rachel also shares how she's finding fulfillment through fitness and friendship, why she co-created the Better Body challenge with James Lowery, and the $10,000 accountability bet that helped her finish 75 Hard. We talk about building a stronger body through consistency, putting yourself around people who support your growth, and shifting from maximizing your net worth to maximizing your net life. Finally, Rachel opens up about the financial lessons from her divorce, why she wishes she'd had a prenup, and how journaling helped her process what happened and rebuild her confidence. She also explains why stepping away from social media has been so freeing — and why you don't have to make a big impact to make a positive impact.
