For many entrepreneurs and business owners, starting and growing a business isn’t just about making money. It’s about finding freedom. It’s about experiencing the fulfillment that comes from building something meaningful—and living a rich life.
But here’s the truth: while your business can give you a rich life, it can also ruin it. Success often comes at the expense of sanity. Maybe you’re working harder than ever, paying everyone else first, and still feeling stuck in a prison of your own making.
The solution isn’t just getting more customers, scaling up, or dumping all your profits “back into the business.” Real freedom—financial, personal, and professional—starts with a plan. A financial freedom plan.
As a seasoned money and mindset coach and founder of an eight-figure financial firm, Marissa Nehlsen teaches that when the vision is clear, the decisions become easy. Marissa will show you how to:
Say goodbye to the grind and say hello to freedom. It’s time to start living life on your own terms—and live life rich.
Live Life Rich:
The Entrepreneur’s Guide to Dream Big, Multiply Your Money, and Take Control of Your Financial Freedom
by Marissa Nehlsen
Foreword by John C. Maxwell
Marissa Nehlsen is the founder and CEO of Freedom Financial Group, an eight-figure, debt-free financial firm serving clients across 46 states. But before she ever advised anyone on wealth building or tax strategy, she was a farm girl in North Dakota—picking rocks in the fields, learning the value of grit, and watching her family lose everything during the drought of the 1980s.
That loss planted the seed of her life’s mission: to help farm families keep more of what they earn, protect what they’ve built, and pass it on to the next generation with confidence.
Today, Marissa leads thousands of rural business owners and agricultural families through educational seminars and one-on-one coaching—equipping them with smart, actionable plans for tax strategy, succession and transition, risk protection, and legacy building. Her approach is both heart-driven and highly practical: make your money work harder than you do, and preserve what matters most.
She has built five companies, coached thousands of business owners, and helped clients move from uncertainty to confidence—whether they’re running a multigenerational farm or building a business off the land. She believes your operation should serve your life, not consume it.
When she’s not working with clients, Marissa is either mentoring women in Costa Rica through her nonprofit sewing schools—or enjoying family time on her own mountain. But at heart, she’s still that farm girl from North Dakota, committed to helping rural families live life rich.
