On Episode 327 of the MomShine Podcast, I sat down with Lisa M. Easton—speaker, author, coach, and self-made millionaire—to talk about something that often feels out of reach for moms: wealth. Not just financial wealth, but freedom, fulfillment, and a life where we’re not constantly running on empty.

Lisa has supported high-net-worth individuals, studied the habits of millionaires, and built her own empire. Today, she’s on a mission to show women—especially moms—that success isn’t a secret club. Her perspective flips the script on what it actually takes to live a rich life. Here are six powerful ways she’s helping moms everywhere rethink success.

1. Money Isn’t the End-All for Happiness

One of Lisa’s biggest revelations came while supporting wealthy entrepreneurs. She noticed that many of them—despite the houses, cars, and bank accounts—were deeply unfulfilled. What set the happiest apart wasn’t their net worth, but their foundation in meditation, movement, and mindset work.

Happiness, she reminds us, is built from within, not from the commas in your account.

2. Success Is a Mindset, Not More Hard Work

Lisa’s mantra: “You can’t out-hustle your way into happiness.” Moms already know how to work hard—sometimes too hard. What we need more of is permission to think differently.

Reframing how we view our time, energy, and money shifts everything. Success isn’t about piling on more hours; it’s about aligning your actions with the belief that you’re already worthy of building wealth and joy.

3. Self-Care Is a Wealth Strategy

It might feel indulgent to carve out time for yourself, but Lisa argues the opposite: self-care is the engine that drives how you show up for your family, your work, and your dreams.

“When you don’t pour into yourself, you’re operating from depletion,” she shared. Giving yourself more permission to rest, move, or nourish your body isn’t selfish—it’s a wealth-building mindset.

4. You Don’t Need Your Own Wealth to Make Money

A huge myth Lisa busts: you don’t need to already have wealth to build it. Many entrepreneurs got rich by investing other people’s money—because they believed they were worthy, built trust, and followed through.

Wealth isn’t about starting with a cushion; it’s about believing in your ability to steward resources well, whether they’re your own or entrusted to you.

5. 15 Minutes a Day Can Change Your Life

Lisa encourages moms to set aside just 15 minutes a day for intentional goal setting and visualization. Write down your goals as if they’ve already happened. Script out your future self with 30-40 goals, both generic and detailed, that you want to achieve until they become written into your subconscious. And then watch how the changes start to stack up in as little as three months.

She also swears by micro-practices like:

It doesn’t take hours—it takes consistency.

6. Expand Your Circle, Expand Your Possibilities

We often limit ourselves by the environments we stay in. Lisa believes community and mentorship are non-negotiable for building wealth and fulfillment. Surround yourself with expanders—people who stretch your beliefs about what’s possible.

Even if entrepreneurs do not surround you, you can find community online, in podcasts, or in small daily practices that remind you you’re not alone.

7. Model Generational Wealth for Your Kids

Lisa emphasizes that wealth isn’t just about your bank account—it’s about legacy. She encourages moms to let their kids see them saving, investing, journaling goals, and learning. By modeling healthy money habits and self-belief, you’re planting seeds of generational wealth that go far beyond dollars.

Your children inherit more than your genes—they inherit your mindset.

8. Choose Faith Over Fear

So much of motherhood runs on scarcity thinking: not enough time, not enough energy, not enough money. Lisa flips that script by teaching moms to replace fear with faith.

“Fear shrinks you, faith expands you,” she says. When you make decisions rooted in faith—whether that’s launching a business, asking for help, or investing in yourself—you expand what’s possible, for you and your family.

The MomShine Takeaway

Lisa’s message is clear: success isn’t about chasing perfection, more money, or more hours—it’s about shifting your mindset, caring for yourself, and scripting a life that feels both expansive and free.

If you want to start today, try this: take 15 minutes to journal your goals in the present tense. Let your kids see you saving, investing, and learning. And remember, you don’t have to earn more to start building wealth—you just have to think differently.
