Money, faith, and leadership are more connected than most executives are willing to admit.

In this episode of The Leadership Lab Podcast, Asbel Montes sits down with Matt Morizio, founder of Reconstructing Wealth, for a thoughtful conversation about how leaders form their relationship with money and how that relationship quietly shapes decision-making, anxiety, and impact. Drawing from personal experience, psychology, and values-based investing, this episode challenges conventional assumptions about wealth and success.

Asbel and Matt explore why high-income leaders often feel stuck financially, how fear and scarcity influence financial behavior, and why generosity can become a powerful catalyst for freedom rather than a liability. The discussion moves beyond tactics to examine the deeper beliefs that drive financial choices and leadership posture.

You'll hear how education reduces uncertainty, why many leaders avoid financial conversations out of shame or comparison, and how aligning money with mission can unlock clarity and confidence. Matt also shares how his own journey led to a different approach to wealth management, one centered on stewardship, understanding, and purposeful growth.

You'll learn:

• How emotional freedom from money changes the way leaders show up.

• Why generosity reshapes financial behavior more effectively than willpower.

• The hidden cost of avoiding financial education.

• How executives can move from fear-based decisions to intentional strategy.

• Why stewardship requires participation, not passivity.

• How values-aligned financial guidance accelerates alignment and impact.

If you're a healthcare finance executive, senior leader, or values-driven professional wrestling with financial pressure behind the scenes, this conversation offers a reframing of wealth that supports both leadership effectiveness and personal integrity.
