The Power of Intentional Living: Joy, Mindset, and Impact with Angie Wisdom

In this episode, Rudi sits down with Angie Wisdom—mindset expert, author of The Non-Negotiable You, and founder of the Sharing Wisdom podcast—to unpack the true meaning of living intentionally. Angie shares her journey from high-powered financial advisor to transformational coach, revealing why joy must become the foundation for success, not an afterthought. They dive into practical strategies for taking control of your thoughts, why presence is your greatest gift, and how to embody the version of yourself you want to become. If you’ve ever felt successful but unfulfilled, or struggled to break free from people-pleasing and self-negotiation, this episode is your roadmap to lasting change.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Success without joy leads to burnout and emptiness
• Presence is the “gift”—living in the now unlocks fulfillment
• You have the power to choose your thoughts and shape your reality
• Start with one mindset shift: say it, see it, seek it
• Change sticks when you integrate new habits daily, not just intellectually
• Being intentional means embodying the next version of yourself now
• The most powerful breakthroughs happen when you act—information alone isn’t enough
• Community and immersive events accelerate personal transformation
