The Currency of Happiness
The Currency of Happiness is a podcast for people who want to win with money without losing themselves in the process.
If you’re balancing career, leadership, family and ambition, this show gives you practical systems for building financial clarity, stronger habits and intentional leadership at work and at home. We go beyond tactics to talk about how money, discipline, purpose and values actually intersect in real life.
Hosted by Andrew Rocha, a banking leader, real estate investor, and father, each episode blends personal finance, leadership development, and life design through honest solo episodes and meaningful conversations.
This isn’t about chasing more. It’s about building a life that’s truly worth it.
