Ice Cream with Investors was built on the idea that personal growth directly correlates to financial growth. Whether you want to cultivate wealth or well-being, the first step is reframing your mind.

On our weekly podcast, we sit down with successful investors to learn how they strengthen their mindset muscles and make their money go to work for them. We help our listeners gain confidence, nix negative thinking, and drive life-long change through alternative investments.

Because in a world that’s more pessimistic than not, it’s up to us to seek out the good. And what’s more feel-good than ice cream?
