In this episode of The Amazing Authorities Podcast, Mitch Carson sits down with Dwight Heck — bestselling author of Give a Heck and a life & finance coach — to uncover how to transform your mindset, master your money, and live each day with intentional purpose.
From reframing “bad days” into “character-building moments” to running workshops that free people from the hamster wheel of debt, Dwight blends personal resilience, emotional intelligence, and financial strategy into a formula anyone can use. His journey — from overcoming childhood illness and loss to building a successful coaching business — proves that gratitude and purpose are the ultimate wealth creators.
You’ll discover:
The “no bad days” mindset that will change how you process challenges
Why gratitude in the morning and evening can radically shift your outlook
How to identify needs vs. wants and free up hidden cash flow
The key to breaking debt cycles without wrecking your credit
Why life insurance is more than a policy — it’s peace of mind for your loved ones
How to create core values and boundaries that guide every decision
Dwight’s story and strategies aren’t just theory — they’re lived experience, tested over decades, and proven to help you regain financial and personal power.
Give a Heck Financial was founded by Dwight Heck, who started his lifestyle financial planning business 22 years ago while living paycheck to paycheck as a single Dad of five children. Like many of us, Dwight didn’t understand the rules of the money game. Using strategies, he learned to help himself with his mental roadblocks, he turned his life around and now teaches others to do the same which is ‘how to live life on purpose and not by accident!’. Dwight accomplishes this through his best- selling book, top 3% globally ranked podcast, and his financial and lifestyle coaching business.
