Why You Need to Be Broke (Before You Get Rich)

Why You Need to Be Broke (Before You Get Rich)

Lewis reveals a truth most people run from: being broke isn't your failure, it's your education.

He shares his own season sleeping on his sister's couch with no income, no savings, and no clear path forward, feeling trapped and questioning his worth.

You'll learn why the lessons you gain when money is scarce teach you more about wealth than any amount in your bank account ever could.

Lewis walks you through five specific reasons why financial struggle forces critical growth around resourcefulness, self-worth, and your relationship with money itself. This isn't about romanticizing poverty or staying broke, it's about extracting wisdom from hard seasons so that when money does come, you're actually ready to keep it.
