About this listen

Justin Peters the host of the FI Minded Podcast (formerly the Struggle is Real Podcast). Started in 2020 and now has over 175 episodes. FI Minded is for anyone who wants to achieve financial freedom, live life on their own terms, and, most importantly, enjoy the journey along the way! After a 7 month sabbatical in 2020, he got into entrepreneurship after 7 years in corporate and now runs a podcast production company (SimplePod Studios), reducing his 9-5 job to part time. I really wanted to get Justin on the show because we share a similar message, which is about enjoying the journey to FI and taking advantage of the incremental freedoms you unlock on the way.
