Beyond Social Security: Su Embree on Choosing Your Own Retirement Age
Are you following the "American story" of waiting until age 65 to retire, or are you building the choice to retire on your own terms? Join Alice Tang as she speaks with Su Embree, an immigrant founder who turned her "halftime" into a launchpad for massive success. Su reveals the difference between the 20 years it took to save her first million and the single day it took to make her next. Learn why she believes money is a "divine energy" and how she overcame the skepticism of being a 25-year-old Asian woman in a field dominated by older men. In this episode, you’ll learn: The Choices of Freedom: Why money is a tool for creation and community impact rather than just an ending. The Pivot to Intentionality: How Su transitioned from "habitual saving" to "intentional wealth building" using her business as a lever. Survival and Resilience: Tactics for staying focused when revenue drops 50-80% during economic crises.
