You Have More Than Me: Reclaiming Self-Worth and Overcoming Shame with Myra Salzer
In the Season 3 premiere of Change Your Mind with Kris Ashley, Kris sits down with Myra Salzer, founder of The Wealth Conservancy, TEDx speaker, and author, for a deeply honest conversation about money, shame, self-worth, and societal judgment. This episode challenges the common narrative that having more—whether money, success, health, or opportunity—automatically leads to fulfillment. Together, Kris and Myra explore how wealth prejudice, inherited money, and sudden financial gain can create isolation, identity struggles, and misaligned self-worth. You’ll learn why people often resent those with more, how inherited wealth impacts confidence and relationships, and why many lottery winners and professional athletes lose everything—not because of ignorance, but because of unresolved identity and comfort patterns. This conversation is for anyone who has ever: - Felt guilt or shame for having more than others - Dimmed themselves to avoid judgment or resentment - Struggled with self-worth tied to success or money - Felt isolated after personal growth or achievement Key themes explored in this episode: * Wealth prejudice and cultural resentment * Net worth vs. self-worth misalignment * Inherited wealth and emotional responsibility * Victimhood narratives and accountability * Community, belonging, and outgrowing old circles * Why fulfillment is about growth—not arrival This episode reminds us that money doesn’t solve identity—but mindset shapes everything. 🎧 Listen, reflect, and share this episode with someone who needs permission to stop shrinking and start owning who they are.

Show Notes
Myra Salzer is the vibrant founder of The Wealth Conservancy, a TEDx speaker, and an advocate for inheritors. She founded The Wealth Conservancy to create a business that consistently, fiduciarily and honorably served clients nationwide via a combination of life coaching, financial coaching, financial education, and investment management.
Myra frequently speaks and publishes on financial issues with emphasis on those who have inherited significant assets and want to harness their wealth’s potential while realizing their life’s greatest ambitions. The author of four books including Living Richly: Seizing the Potential of Inherited Wealth, Myra is a Huffington Post contributor and speaker on topics like wealth prejudice.
Valuing client relationships as a yardstick for her business’s success, Myra has made The Wealth Conservancy a non-judgemental place for those who came across their financial resources by inheritance, divorce, or widowhood. The common thread between her clients is that they aim to preserve and control the assets they have received and that they desire a personal partnership with their coaching team.
As an introvert, Myra likes to retreat to her home in the foothills outside of Boulder CO that she shares with her husband and dog. She gets great satisfaction from enjoying a simple life, cooking for friends, and reading beside the dog in the vista-filled window seat. Ask her how her tap dancing lessons are going!
