S3E4 - The New FIRE: Redefining Wealth, Purpose, and What It Means to Be a Light
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
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.
