In this episode of The Artful Dollar podcast, Ryan Roi reveals the relationship between money and the ancient wisdom of Hermetic philosophy. He discusses the human desire for stability contrasted with the reality of constant change in our universe. 
Ryan explores the seven principles of Hermetic philosophy—mentalism, correspondence, vibration, polarity, rhythm, cause and effect, and gender—and relates them to our understanding of money. He illustrates how financial freedom is more about mindset than numbers, emphasizing that money is primarily a flow of energy influenced by our mental and spiritual states. Ryan encourages listeners to rethink their relationship with money, aiming for liberation and self-expression irrespective of external circumstances.
