What if your greatest financial expansion comes from embracing purpose over profit?
In this episode of Plenty, I sit down with my incredible friend Patrice Washington, founder of Seek Wisdom, to explore her transformative journey from financial expert to personal development advocate. Patrice opens up about rebuilding her life after losing a seven-figure business during the 2008 recession and how her divorce became a catalyst for personal and financial growth. She shares the six pillars of wealth—Fit, Faith, People, Space, Work, and Money—and how true abundance starts from within. If you’re ready to redefine success, break free from external validation, and align with your purpose, this episode is for you. Get ready for heartfelt insights, actionable strategies, and powerful wisdom to help you thrive on every level.
“Chase purpose, not money. I don’t make every decision just based on the money that I can make. I really seek to see, does this align with who I want to be in the world?” -Patrice Washington
