From Soul-Draining Work to Soul-Aligned Wealth with Rachel Speckman

Published on: 28th August, 2025

What if the real question isn’t “Do I have enough money?” but “Am I aligned with my work, my values, and my wealth?”

In this episode of iDateMoney®, Lisa Drennon sits down with career and mindset coach Rachel Spekman, who helps high-performing professionals trade soul-sucking jobs for soul-aligned careers. Together, they dive into the relationship between money, alignment, and self-worth—and how the stories we tell ourselves shape both our finances and our futures.

Rachel shares her earliest money memory, how shame shaped her financial beliefs, and the turning point that led her to reinvent her career. Lisa and Rachel also explore how alignment impacts not only income but joy, purpose, and legacy.


✨ If you’ve ever wondered why “making more” never feels like enough, this conversation is for you.


Topics Discussed:


Why “Will there be enough?” is the most common money fear—regardless of income

How early money memories influence adult money behaviors

The link between soul-draining work and financial stress

Tools for moving from career misalignment to fulfillment

The role of community, curiosity, and challenge in creating true wealth

Why money is a tool, not the goal

Quote to Remember:

“Wealth is having the ability to do what you want, with whom you want, when you want.” – Rachel Spekman
