The Cost of Investing — and the Cost of Standing Still with Krisstina Wise

In this deeply honest and reflective conversation, Dr. Felecia Froe welcomes back Krisstina Wise for a very different kind of discussion from their previous appearance. Instead of focusing on wins and strategies, they explore the realities most people avoid, including loss, intuition, risk, shame, resilience, and what it actually takes to stay in the game long term. This episode is candid and unfiltered and includes occasional strong language as part of an authentic conversation about real-life experiences.

 

Krisstina opens up about a brutal year that included near–seven-figure risk, broken trust, and the emotional toll of not listening to her intuition. Together, she and Felecia examine why every form of wealth-building involves risk, why even experienced investors make painful mistakes, and how transparency and community often become the true path to recovery. The conversation also looks forward, touching on redefining success, blending intuition with strategy, and stepping into a more sustainable, aligned way of building both wealth and life.

ICYMI: Money Tales: Money’s Everywhere with Dr. Felecia Froe

In this ICYMI conversation, Dr. Felecia Froe sits down with Sandi Bragar and Cammie Doder on the Money Tales podcast to trace the money narrative that shaped her from childhood all the way to founding Money With Mission. She opens up about watching her mother stay in a domestic violence relationship for financial reasons, the credit card mistakes she made in medical school, and how she used the CASHFLOW 101 game to teach her own daughters about money years before most parents even start the conversation. Felecia also walks through the deal that changed everything: a patient named Jamie who challenged her to buy her first real estate property and removed all the risk in doing so.

Foundations #10: You’re Not Bad with Money

You’re not bad with money. In this Foundations episode, Dr. Felecia Froe speaks directly to every woman carrying the belief that she’s somehow failed at money, whether she’s avoided her finances for years, watched a high income never translate into confidence, or is still making sense of a setback that shook her trust in herself. Felecia reframes the whole story: what looks like carelessness is actually overwhelm, what looks like incapability is actually a lack of preparation, and what looks like personal failure is actually a systemic failure.

Felecia Froe became a urologic surgeon after succeeding in medical school and urology residency. Somehow she knew this wasn’t the last thing she would ever do. Her mind as rewired about the idea of money after reading Rich Dad Poor Dad by Robert Kyosaki. In this ICYMI conversation with Mary Katherine Johnson of Planet Wealth, Felecia traces her path buying 18 properties in two years, losing nearly everything in the 2008 crash, and rebuilding into a social impact investor who’s now running sober living homes and fighting food deserts. She gets honest about the fear that doesn’t fully go away, even after decades of deals, the mindset shift from working for money to making money work for you, and why she believes no woman should ever feel financially stuck in a job or relationship.
