S3E4 - The New FIRE: Redefining Wealth, Purpose, and What It Means to Be a Light
In this deeply personal episode of The FIRE Social Worker, Joey Laswell steps away from numbers and net worths to talk about what truly matters: purpose. Broadcasting from his newly rearranged office, Joey opens up about his shifting view of the FIRE movement—moving from “Financial Independence, Retire Early” to a mission that’s all about lighting fires in people.
He explores how small, positive actions compound into massive change, why choosing kindness is a radical act in dark times, and how being a “good person” is the ultimate return on investment. This isn’t a guide to early retirement—it’s a call to wake up, get fired up, and spark something better in yourself and your community.
