Health in Wealth®

Hello, and welcome back to Health in Wealth®. I am Ana Ramos, and I am really glad you are here.Today’s conversation is for anyone who has felt the pull toward freedom and then found themselves standing in the unfamiliar space that follows.We talk a lot about leaving environments that no longer fit. Leaving the corporate path. Leaving predictability. Leaving identities that once made sense.What we talk about less is what happens afterward.The moment when freedom feels expansive and unsettling at the same time.When certainty falls away before anything new has taken its place.My guest today, Patricia Ramirez, is living inside that moment. She spent years building a successful career inside large institutions — law, finance, and global corporations — and then made the decision to step away.Not because she failed.But because the framework she was living inside no longer aligned.What followed was not clarity or relief. It was uncertainty. Financial questions. A shift in relationships. A loss of external validation. And the necessity of rebuilding rhythm, confidence, and identity in real time.What makes this conversation honest is that Patricia does not speak from resolution. She speaks from experience. From the middle. From a place where freedom still requires courage, structure, and daily choice.This episode is about what it means to leave the box, and what it actually takes to build a life that can hold that freedom.So take a breath.Settle in.And let us talk about the structure of freedom.

Hello, and welcome back to Health in Wealth®.I am Ana Ramos… and I am really glad you are here.Today, I want to begin with a question we rarely slow down enough to ask.What does success actually require over time?Not the day you arrive.Not the moment something goes right.But the years in between.So much of what we are taught about success today focuses on the outcome.Visualize it.Manifest it.Push harder.But what is often missing from that conversation is the structure that has to exist underneath:The mindset that sustains effort.The discipline that does not come from punishment.And the relationship with the body that makes long-term success possible at all.That is why I find myself returning, again and again, to athletes.Not because they win But because they understand process.Athletes understand something deeply human:That growth involves discomfort.That failure is information.And that success is something you build... patiently, deliberately, and in partnership with your body.My guest today, Nelly Pineda, has spent decades working with athletes at the highest levels.And what emerged in our conversation is that the qualities athletes develop — mindset, intentional goals, and disciplined consistency — are not exclusive to sport.They are a universal life blueprint.They shape how we lead…How we work…How we relate to money…How we care for our health…And how we define success without abandoning ourselves along the way.This conversation is not about becoming an athlete.It is about learning what athletes can teach us about building a life that is strong enough to hold us.So… take a breath.Settle in.And let us explore the architecture of success together

Hello, and welcome back to Health in Wealth®.I’m Ana Ramos.Have you ever felt like life is moving so fast… that you don’t quite feel like yourself inside of it anymore?Not because anything is necessarily wrong. But because everything feels constant. The noise. The pace. The pressure to keep going.Today’s conversation is about that feeling and where it may actually be coming from.Today we explore what it means to live in a world that is always “on”… and what happens to us, both mentally and physically, when we lose connection to something much more natural, much more grounding.Because many of us don’t realize that the way we feel - overwhelmed, anxious, disconnected - is not just about how much we’re doing. It’s about what we’re no longer connected to.We explore how that connection begins early in life. How our experiences as children - our exposure to nature, to play, to curiosity - shape not only how we see the world, but how we regulate ourselves within it.And we also explore something deeply important… how to find your way back.Back to presence.Back to simplicity.Back to the small moments that bring you into yourself again.Because sometimes, what we call burnout… is actually disconnection.And the path forward may not be about doing more, but about reconnecting to what we’ve quietly moved away from.So, take a breath. Settle in. Let us begin.

What happens when the life you’ve built no longer feels sustainable? In this episode of Health in Wealth®, Ana Ramos sits down with entrepreneur and athlete Norma Coker to explore a moment many experience but struggle to name. A moment where the pace becomes heavy. Where clarity feels distant. And where something within you is asking to shift. Together, they explore the intersection of sport, business, and identity. From early discipline shaped through swimming, to building a business from instinct, to facing uncertainty in the age of AI, this conversation offers an honest look at resilience in motion. At the heart of it is a powerful metaphor: “mile 32” — the point where you can either stop… or take one more step. This is not a conversation about having answers. It is about learning how to keep moving when you don’t.  Timestamps 00:00 Introduction: When life begins to feel heavy 01:29 Meeting Norma: athlete, entrepreneur, creator 02:42 Growing up in sport and early discipline 05:16 Struggling with focus in a distracted world 08:07 Letting go of Olympic dreams 11:08 Starting a business without a roadmap 12:45 Walking away from sport at 16 14:58 Returning to sport at 30 17:05 Rebuilding structure through triathlon 18:04 Building a business from necessity 21:25 When everything shifts: partnership, relocation, AI 25:21 The “mile 32” moment explained 26:52 One step at a time: navigating uncertainty 29:18 “This too shall pass” — anchors in difficult moments 31:03 Biohacks for resilience (mental + physical) 33:00 Beetroot, performance, and recovery 35:12 Redefining wealth beyond money 36:58 Our relationship with money and well-being 38:19 Closing reflections and invitation  Key Themes Resilience and identity through change The intersection of sport and business Navigating uncertainty in the age of AI Discipline, structure, and self-trust Wealth as well-being, not just money The power of mental anchors in difficult moments  Call to Action If this conversation stayed with you, consider sharing it with someone who may be navigating their own “mile 32” moment. Subscribe for more conversations exploring the deeper connection between health, mindset, and wealth. 

Why does everything feel urgent… even when it isn’t?We speak about time as something we manage. Something we schedule, spend, and try to control. Yet beneath that surface, there is a quieter truth unfolding.In this conversation, Ana Ramos is joined by Dr. Dawna Ballard, an expert in chronemics, the study of time as it exists within human communication. Together, they explore a shift in perspective. Time is not simply something we use. It is something we co-create, moment by moment, through the way we relate, respond, and move through the world.As the conversation deepens, we begin to see how urgency becomes normalized. How speed becomes a signal of importance. And how this constant acceleration shapes not only our work, but our relationships, our health, and the way we experience ourselves.Dr. Ballard introduces the concept of time poverty, a lived sense that there is never enough. From there, we begin to understand how this perception activates the body, influences decision-making, and quietly limits our ability to think clearly, rest deeply, and connect meaningfully.There is a powerful reframe that emerges. Slowing down is not the opposite of effectiveness. In many cases, it is the very thing that allows us to move with clarity, intention, and true speed.This episode is an invitation to pause. To notice your pace. And to reconsider the rhythm you are participating in each day.In this episode, we explore:• Why time is a relational experience, not just a resource• How urgency becomes a shared cultural pattern• The impact of time scarcity on the nervous system and long-term thinking• Why slowing down can lead to better outcomes and deeper connection• Simple ways to begin reshaping your relationship with timeIf this conversation resonates, please share it with someone who may need it.

Hello, and welcome back to Health in Wealth®.I am Ana Ramos, and I am so glad you are here.There is something deeply powerful — and often invisible — about the way a nervous system responds to safety.A steady voice.A gentle touch.A loving presence in the room.Before language... before logic... before identity... there is regulation.Our bodies learn what safety feels like long before we understand the word. And that early wiring — those first experiences of connection — quietly shape how we respond to stress, how we form relationships, and how we move through uncertainty.Today, I am joined by Debbie Radzinsky, a trauma-informed therapist with over two decades of experience helping individuals and couples build deeper self-awareness and more meaningful relationships. Debbie trained at institutions including the Anna Freud Centre in London and Hunter College in New York, and her work is rooted in attachment theory — the understanding that early bonding shapes emotional regulation for life.She believes that when we feel safe enough to be seen and supported, we can peel back the layers that no longer serve us and reconnect to our inner strength.In this conversation, we explore how early attachment regulates the body, how our nervous systems learn safety — or bracing — and how those early imprints continue to influence the way we live, love, and cope with life.Because if safety was wired early...that wiring may still be shaping us today.Take a breath.Settle in.And let’s begin.

Hello, and welcome back to Health in Wealth®.I am Ana Ramos, and I am so glad you are here.Today, we are beginning with a reframe.Most of us were taught that pain is simple. If something hurts, something must be damaged. But neuroscience tells us something far more nuanced — and far more empowering. Pain is not always the result of tissue damage. It is often a protective output of the brain, generated when the nervous system perceives threat.What is even more fascinating is that stress, anxiety, and sleeplessness activate many of the same neural pathways involved in pain. They operate within the same neurological playground.Which means pain is not purely physical — it is shaped by perception, memory, and context.And that is where this conversation expands.Because the brain does not just respond to injury. It responds to memory. A smell can transport you to childhood. A street corner can reactivate an accident. The nervous system links sensation to past experience — creating what neuroscience calls “neurotags.” And those tags do not only live in the body. They show up in our emotional lives. They show up in our decisions. They even show up in our relationship with money.When something feels threatening, our instinct is to avoid it. But avoidance does not soothe the nervous system. It can sensitise it. Fear leads to avoidance. Avoidance reinforces danger. Over time, the response becomes stronger.So today, we are exploring something hopeful.If the nervous system can become sensitised, it can also be retrained. Through small, safe, incremental exposure, the brain can learn that what once felt dangerous is survivable. And that lesson applies to movement, ambition, conversation — even growth.We will also examine something many of us have internalised: “no pain, no gain.” Because not all discomfort is growth. Some discomfort strengthens. Some harms. And learning the difference may be one of the most important forms of discernment in both health and wealth.So, take a breath. Settle in. Let us begin a conversation with Dr Neil Cuninghame about Fear, Pain, and the Brain.

When Your Career No Longer Feels Like You | Finding Alignment Between Success and SoulWhat happens when your career looks successful on the outside… but no longer feels aligned within?In this episode of Health in Wealth®, our host, Ana Ramos, sits down with architect Greta Gutierrez to explore the quiet tension so many high-performing individuals experience: building a career that the world recognizes, while feeling disconnected from their deeper identity. They explore:Why success can start to feel emptyThe difference between burnout and misalignmentHow family expectations shape career choicesReconnecting with your purpose after feeling lostThe balance between “doing” and “being”Spirituality, identity, and self-trustRedefining wealth as alignment, not just incomeGreta shares her journey of growing up in a traditional environment, navigating expectations around success, and ultimately choosing a different path, one rooted in independence, spirituality, and self-trust. Through moments of loss, uncertainty, and reinvention, she discovered what it means to align your external life with your internal truth.This conversation is an invitation to rethink how you see career, purpose, and wealth, not as separate worlds, but as things that can coexist in harmony.Because true wealth is not just what you build… it is how aligned you feel while building it.We invite you to take a breath, settle in, and join us for this episode of Health in Wealth®.Timestamps00:00 Introduction: Career vs identity01:00 The idea of alignment (foundation of wealth-being)02:30 Growing up with traditional expectations04:00 When your path doesn’t feel like your own06:00 Losing everything → finding spirituality07:30 Starting a business from alignment10:00 Trusting the unknown and taking the leap12:00 Family, loss, and redefining support14:00 Thriving in a male-dominated industry16:00 Balancing “doing” and “being” energy18:00 How spirituality shapes design and work20:00 Leading with feeling, not just logic22:00 Redefining independence and identity23:30 Money as energy and abundance26:00 The balance between giving and receiving27:30 Healing family relationships through growth29:30 Advice for feeling disconnected or lost31:00 Alignment as your “true north”33:00 Authenticity and self-expression35:00 Closing reflections: The integration of structure and soulAbout Health in Wealth®Health in Wealth® is a podcast exploring the deeper dimensions of wealth.

What happens when you no longer feel valued - by your work, your environment, or even yourself?In this episode of Health in Wealth®, Ana Ramos sits down with artist Laura Madden to explore reinvention, self-worth, and what it truly means to find value both in the world around you and within yourself.Through her work transforming discarded materials into art, Laura reflects a deeply human experience: feeling overlooked, outgrowing your environment, and questioning your place in the world. Her journey is a reminder that reinvention is not about becoming someone new. It is about recognizing the value that was always there.In this episodeWhat to do when you feel undervalued or overlookedThe difference between reinvention and starting overHow to rediscover your self-worth after misalignmentLetting go of people, roles, and identities with gratitudeWhy outgrowing your life is a sign of growthHow creativity can become a tool for transformationRedefining sustainability as a way of beingThis conversation is an invitation to shift how you see yourself.Because your value does not disappear when a chapter ends.It evolves, and it asks to be seen differently.Timestamps00:00 Introduction: Reinvention and self-worth01:00 The deeper question: What is my value?03:00 Turning discarded materials into meaning06:00 Laura’s journey: fitness, fashion, and art08:00 Feeling unfulfilled and questioning direction10:00 Transformation as a life theme12:00 Creating spaces that reflect love and identity14:00 Finding your “true north”15:30 What sustainability really means17:30 Living in alignment vs following trends19:00 Empowerment as a foundation21:00 Redefining wealth as well-being22:30 Creating impact through art24:00 Letting go and passing things on26:00 Feeling undervalued: what to do27:00 Using tools to shift your identity28:30 Asking the right question: What do I want?30:00 Clarity as your internal GPS32:00 Outgrowing relationships and environments33:00 Letting go with gratitude36:00 Closing reflection: Your value does not disappearAbout Health in Wealth®Health in Wealth® is a podcast exploring the deeper dimensions of wealth.

Hello, and welcome back to Health in Wealth®.I’m Ana Ramos, and today’s conversation is a special one.Not just because it is in-person.But because it is personal.Aracelly Latino-Feliz is someone I have had the privilege of walking alongside foryears — not just as a wealth management client, but as a woman navigatingambition, relationships, performance, and identity in real time.Aracelly is competitive by nature.Deeply. Instinctively.That edge has carried her across triathlon finish lines.It has driven professional excellence.It has built resilience.And it has also created tension.In partnership.In marriage.In moments where winning mattered less than connection.What I admire most about Aracelly is not that she is competitive.It is that she has become conscious of it.In this season of her life, something has shifted.The drive has not disappeared.But it has softened.Fun has begun to outrank winning.Presence has started to matter more than proving.And that shift?That is foundation work.Because this season of Health in Wealth® is about foundations —The internal architecture that must be strong before wealth-being can be fully lived.And sometimes, our greatest strength is also the very thing that needs refinement.So today, we explore that edge.Where it helped.Where it hurt.And what it takes to transform instinct into intention.Take a breath.Let us begin.

Welcome back to the Health in Wealth® podcast.I’m Ana Ramos, and I’m grateful to be sharing this space with you today.Today’s conversation starts with something many high-performing people experience, but rarely pause to examine.Overwhelm.Not as a crisis.Not as failure.But as a signal.In a culture that often equates wealth with productivity and resilience with endurance, overwhelm can quietly become the cost of being capable, responsible, and committed.This episode of Health in Wealth® asks a different question:What if overwhelm is not a personal weakness, but information — telling us that the way we are living and leading needs to be redesigned?My guest today is Jessica Shraybman, an attorney, founder, and mother whose professional life reflects this question with remarkable clarity. Jessica built a successful legal practice by being dependable, driven, and available — until the accumulation of responsibility, motherhood, and expectation began to outweigh what one person could sustainably hold.This is not a conversation about stepping away from ambition. It’s about what happens when success continues to work on paper, but no longer works in the body or in daily life.We’ll explore how overwhelm shows up, how identity and responsibility intertwine, and how redesigning support systems — including teams — becomes essential to protecting wealth-being over the long term.So, take a breath.Settle in.And let this conversation meet you where you are. Let’s begin.

Welcome back to the Health in Wealth® podcast.I’m Ana Ramos, and I’m grateful to be sharing this space with you today.Today’s conversation starts with something simple, and perhaps something we often forget.Something we need to consider before strategy, before systems, before growth.Relationships.Not in a business or a soft skill kind of way.But in a very human way.A very fundamental way.A way that’s been hardwired into us.In a world where wealth is often defined by what we produce and what we accumulate, today’s episode asks a different question:What if the quality of our relationships is actually the foundation of our wealth-being?My guest today is Ernesto Mandowsky, founder of Momentum Driving Machine. Ernesto’s work is at the intersection of relationships and smart systems. He’s in the business of helping organisations grow their revenue, referrals, and retention through CRM.But not in a way you might think.Not in a way that’s about managing relationships.But in a way that’s about honouring relationships.Today’s episode is about why relationships are a fundamental part of who we are.Why relationships become transactional and what happens to us when this happens.And how this disconnection quietly drains us, even if we look successful on the outside.We’ll also explore what it means to have an optimal number of relationships.The tension between our personal and professional relationships.And how systems, intended to help us grow, might actually be hurting us.And finally, we’ll get to something very practical.Something very simple.Something very necessary: how to start.This is a conversation about relationships as infrastructure.About relationships as a pillar for harmony in all areas of our lives.So, take a breath, settle in and let this conversation meet you where you are.

Welcome back to the Health in Wealth® podcast.I’m Ana Ramos, and I’m grateful to be sharing this space with you today.In this episode, we’re exploring something many of us quietly question, even when life appears full and successful on the outside.Success.We’re often taught to define it through achievement, productivity, or endurance. Through how much we can carry, how far we can push, or how much we can accomplish before we allow ourselves to rest.But here at Health in Wealth®, we like to pause and ask a different question.What if success isn’t meant to feel heavy?What if it’s not something we chase or prove,but something we experience —through joy, through ease, and through alignment with who we truly are?My guest today lives this question in a deeply embodied way.Niki is a photographer, a storyteller, and a quiet observer of the moments that often go unnoticed. From a childhood spent roaming forests, fields, and farms, learning to sit still long enough for wonder to appear, to later moments where stillness revealed something extraordinary, Niki’s life has been shaped by patience, presence, and an instinctive trust in whatfeels true.She began her professional life in law but chose to step away when she realised that the way she saw the world — and the way she felt it — was different. What called to her instead was the delicate web of emotion, human connection, and beauty that exists when people are fullypresent with one another.Through her work, Niki captures more than images. She captures feeling. She reminds us that joy often arrives quietly, that magic doesn’t announce itself, and that alignment is something we sense before we understand.In today’s conversation, we explore what it means to redefine success through joy, ease, and alignment. How intuition guides us when logic falls short. How environment and creativity shape our wellbeing. And how listening deeply to ourselves can lead us toward a life that feels not onlysuccessful, but deeply nourishing.So, wherever you are, take a breath.Allow yourself to settle in.And let this conversation meet you exactly where you are today.Let’s begin.

Hello, and welcome back to Health in Wealth®.I’m Ana Ramos, and I’m so glad you’re here.We often talk about careers as if they start with a job offer.But in reality, they start much earlier—in conversations, in curiosity, in how wechoose to show up when nothing is promised.Today’s guest, Kya Peirre, reminds us that presence still matters.That integrity is visible.And that intention has a way of opening doors we didn’t even know we wereknocking on.This episode is for anyone standing at the edge of adulthood, asking:How do I begin—without losing myself?”Kya is a recent graduate who joined Amida after something rare and powerful— she initiated a genuine conversation.No pitch.No entitlement.Just curiosity, respect, and presence.Throughout her internship, she carried herself with professionalism, care, and an elegance that can’t be taught.Kya represents a new generation of leaders—thoughtful, intentional, and quietly confident. And I’m so excited to share her perspective with you today. So, take a breath. Settle in. Let’s begin.

Welcome back to the Health in Wealth® podcast. I’m Ana Ramos, and as always, I’m grateful to share this space with you. Today, we’re exploring a word that’s everywhere right now—longevity. It’s often spoken about in terms of optimisation, performance, or adding more years to life. But here at Health in Wealth, we like to pause and ask a different question. What if longevity isn’t about doing more— but about living more intentionally? What if it’s not something we chase later in life, but something we quietly cultivate every day— through how we care for our health, how we relate to the people around us, how we choose our work, how we engage with money, and how we continue to grow as human beings? Because a long life, on its own, isn’t the goal. A well-lived life is. My guest today lives and breathes this every day.Dr. María Lozada Arenas is a physician and the founder of Clínicas de Ozono, where her work sits at the intersection of medicine, prevention, and long-term vitality. But what I find most compelling about Dr. María isn’t just what she does professionally—it’s how she lives. Her approach to longevity isn’t about extremes or quick fixes. It’s about alignment. About respecting the body, honouring time, and making choices that support life—over decades, not moments. In today’s conversation, we’ll explore how medicine can support longevity without becoming the centre of it, how living in harmony across life’s pillars quietly compounds over time, and why the way we live today is always shaping the life we’ll be living tomorrow. So, take a breath, settle in, and allow this conversation to meet you where you are. Let’s begin. 

Hello, and welcome back to Health in Wealth®. I’m Ana Ramos, and I’m so glad you’re here. Today, we’re unpacking a topic that feels especially timely as we move into a new year—the myth of “having it all.” We hear this phrase everywhere—on social media, in conversations about success, achievement, motherhood, career, relationships, even wellbeing. But what does it actually mean in real life? And what happens when we chase that idea without ever questioning whose version of “all” we’re trying to have? To help us explore this with depth, nuance, and heart, I’m honored to be joined by Fernanda Bressan—a coach, facilitator, guide, and founder of Foundfully. Fernanda works deeply with high achievers and change-makers—helping them step out of “stuckness” and into more intentional, aligned ways of living. Her work centers on practical momentum without burnout, communication that clears space for connection, and boundaries that protect what actually matters. She also designs experiences that bring women together in community and reflection—like retreats grounded in nature, stillness, and introspection. What I love about Fernanda is that her philosophy isn’t just theoretical. She lives it. She has intentionally slowed her pace, explored her identity beyond familiar roles, embraced rest and boundaries, and completed a meditation certification to deepen her own practice—and hers is a story of moving toward a life that feels authentic, not after some ill-defined finish line. Today, we’ll talk about what it really looks like to assess your life honestly—without comparing yourself to curated markers of success—and how fulfilment emerges not from having everything at once, but from choosing what matters most in each season of life. So, whether you’re in a season of high output, deep rest, recalibration, or quiet soul-searching, I invite you to settle in with curiosity as we explore a more grounded, aligned definition of success. Let’s begin. 

Welcome back to the Health in Wealth™ podcast, where we explore the beautiful, intimate connection between your body, your mind, and your money… and how tending to one transforms them all. I’m your host, Ana Ramos, and today we’re diving into something very close to my heart — the Five Pillars of Wealth, and how my own journey through them has shaped the way I live, breathe, and create a life of wealth-being. This season, we’ve been exploring a theme I love — biohacking. Not in the sense of gadgets or extreme optimization… but in the sense of understanding the body as the first messenger. The gentlest scientist. The place where our money stories live long before they show up in our bank accounts or our decisions. When I first started this work, I believed wealth belonged mostly to the financial pillar — strategy, planning, structure. And while those pieces matter, what I’ve come to realize is that real wealth — sustainable, joyful, deeply rooted wealth — blooms only when all five pillars are in conversation with one another. When the body is regulated… when relationships feel safe… when purpose is aligned… when finances flow… and when personal growth becomes a way of being. For many years, I tried to outrun discomfort, to work my way around misalignment, to keep pushing even when my body was whispering — sometimes shouting — that something wasn’t right. And like many of you, I learned the hard way that when one pillar falls out of harmony, it sends a ripple through the others. In today’s episode, I’m going to share the questions I still ask myself — the ones that help me return to center when life gets loud. Questions that bring the nervous system back into safety, that bring clarity to decision-making, and that remind me that wealth-being is not created through pressure… but through presence. So wherever you are — walking, resting, driving, or simply listening — I invite you to take one gentle breath with me. Let your body arrive. Let your mind soften. And let’s explore what it means to build a life not from urgency… but from harmony. This is the journey back to you. This is the journey back to wealth-being. Let’s begin. 

Welcome back to the Health in Wealth™ podcast. I’m Ana Ramos, and as always, I’m grateful to share this space with you. As we move through life — our careers, our ambitions, our daily responsibilities — it’s so easy to forget the one practice that can change everything: gratitude. Not the gratitude we write on lists or rush through at the end of the day… but the gratitude we embody — the kind that softens our nervous system, expands our perspective, and shifts the energy with which we meet the world. Today's guest is someone who understands this deeply, and she is proof that even the most technical fields are made richer by heart, intention and presence. Dalene Deale is a fintech strategist, regulatory specialist, and the founder of Business Growth Hacking. She brings big-picture clarity to complex systems, and her work influences some of South Africa’s most important digital identity and financial frameworks. But what I find most inspiring about Dalene is not just her mind — it’s her humanity. She is a high achiever who has learned to channel her ADHD, her lived experiences, and her unstoppable curiosity into a life filled with meaning, creativity, and purpose. Today, we’ll explore how gratitude has shaped her path — how it supports achievement, expands resilience, anchors focus, and transforms the way we experience both our inner and outer worlds. So take a breath… Settle in… And let’s explore the power of gratitude in a life lived fully, purposefully, and with a deep connection to wealth-being. 

Hi everyone, and welcome back to the Health in Wealth® podcast. I’m Ana Ramos, and I’m so grateful you’re here. I’ve been thinking a lot about the quiet moments that shape us… the ones that remind us to pause, breathe, and come back home to ourselves. In a world that moves so quickly, the breath is one of the few things that’s always with us — a constant invitation back into presence, safety, and flow. And that’s what today’s conversation is about. I’m joined by someone whose work inspires me deeply…  Jennifer Furter, the founder of Breathing Room, whose approach to breathwork is as grounding as it is expansive. Jennifer has a gift for helping people reconnect to the wisdom already living inside them. Her work shows us that breath is not just a physiological act — it is an energetic reset, a doorway into creativity, clarity, and gratitude. So, take a deep, slow breath…  Settle into your body…  And let’s begin. 

Hi, and welcome back to Health in Wealth®. I’m Ana Ramos — and I’m so happy you’re here. When our body, mindset, and mission move in rhythm, wealth stops being something we chase — and becomes a natural expression of truth. Today, we’re going to explore where that truth begins. Because before we build careers, brands, or even bank accounts — we begin building stories.  The stories we hear, the ones we live, and the ones quietly written into our bodies as children. Our relationship with money starts long before we realise it.  It begins with how we’re taught to share, to give, to wait, to receive.  It begins with how our parents speak about enoughness, effort, and value.  And those early experiences often become the blueprint for how we experience wealth as adults. My guest today understands this deeply.  Matena Valverde is a physiotherapist and neurodevelopment specialist based in Mexico City and the founder of Clínica Luli.  For over three decades, she’s worked with children and families — helping them grow not just physically strong, but emotionally aware and connected. Together, we explore how our earliest money stories are formed — and how we can guide the next generation to build stories rooted in safety, curiosity, and abundance.  And maybe, in doing so, we’ll uncover the lessons we needed to hear as children, too. So, take a breath, open your heart, and let’s rediscover how the stories we tell our children can transform the way we all experience wealth-being. Welcome to the Health in Wealth™ podcast. You are exactly where you need to be.

Hi, and welcome back to Health in Wealth®. I’m Ana Ramos — and I’m so grateful you’re here. Maxine Goynes, my guest today, has worn many hats — athlete, creator, entrepreneur — and through each chapter, she’s lived at the intersection of performance, wellness, and authenticity. She reminds us that our brand isn’t something we build; it’s something we embody. In this conversation, we’ll explore how the way we see and present ourselves — our personal brand — reflects our inner alignment. We’ll talk about living from presence, leading with purpose, and the biohacking tools that help bring it all into flow. So wherever you are — take a breath, open your mind, and let this conversation remind you: your wealth-being begins with who you are. 

Hi — and welcome to the Health in Wealth® podcast. I’m Ana Ramos, and I’m so happy you’re here.Health. Relationships. Career. Finances. Personal Growth. Five interconnected energies — each one influencing the other, each one carrying its own rhythm and lesson. When one pillar wobbles, the others shift to hold us. When one expands, the whole structure rises. They’re not rules. They’re not boxes to check. They are living elements — the architecture of harmony. Because wealth-being isn’t static. It’s not a goal you reach and then you’re done. It’s a relationship you nurture every single day — with your breath, your choices, your energy. And when you begin to live through these five lenses, something beautiful happens, your definition of wealth expands.  It becomes less about accumulation and more about alignment. Less about striving and more about flow. So, when I speak about the Five Pillars of Wealth, I’m not speaking from a textbook. I’m speaking from experience — from what I’ve lived, what I’ve witnessed, and what I continue to practice every day. This is a solo episode — just you and me — a moment to pause, breathe, and remember that wealth is not built in isolation. It’s an ecosystem. A living, breathing expression of your whole life.  Take a deep breath in … bring your focus inward … come back to you. Let’s begin. 

Have you ever felt like you’re doing all the right things—pushing, performing, producing—yet still feel disconnected from true wealth? What if the missing link isn’t what you’re doing, but how you’re being? I’m Ana Ramos, and today on Health in Wealth®, we’re coming back to a truth that often gets lost in the noise: Wealth isn’t just strategy. It’s energy. And when our inner masculine and feminine are out of sync—when we’re either in burnout mode or stuck in passivity—we lose our natural flow. I am pleased to welcome back Louise Jeffrey, a Human Potential Coach who helps high performers return to harmony by rebalancing these inner dynamics. Together, we’ll explore how the synergybetween “doing” and “being” can unlock a new kind of wealth—what we call wealth-being. So whether you’ve been hustling on overdrive… or waiting for momentum to find you… This conversation is your invitation to come back to you—and create wealth from the inside out. 

Have you ever noticed how the state of your body shapes the state of your money? How the way you breathe, rest, or respond to stress can quietly guide every financial decision you make? So often, we think of money as numbers on a screen. But the truth is — it begins long before that. It begins inside us. The stories we carry about money — what’s possible, what’s enough, what we’re worth — are written deep into the body. They live in our nervous system, in our patterns, in the loops of thought we repeat without realizing. But here’s the beautiful thing: the brain can rewire. The body can learn safety again. And when we shift those internal signals — when we feel calm, safe, and open — we naturally create new experiences of abundance. I’m Ana Ramos, and this is  Health in Wealth®. Today, I’m joined by coach and clinical hypnotherapist Louise Jeffrey to explore how our minds and bodies work together to shape our relationship with money, and how coming back to your body may be the most powerful wealth strategy you’ll ever practice. Louise bridges neuroscience, hypnotherapy, and traditional Chinese medicine, guiding us to reconnect energy, biology, and belief. We’ll talk about how neural pathways and emotional patterns influence financial flow — and how coming back to your body may be the most powerful wealth strategy you’ll ever practice.
