What if the real cost of a “safe” career isn’t stress or long hours — but the quiet loss of choice over your own life?
In this episode of the Make Life Less Taxing Podcast, Daniel Hanzelka sits down with Agnes Lee, co-founder of WD GANN Traders and former advertising executive turned trading educator and business builder. After being unexpectedly laid off during a corporate downturn, Agnes began questioning the stability many professionals assume they have — and discovered a different path toward clarity, structure, and independence.
Agnes shares her journey from leading campaigns at global agencies to studying market structure and teaching professionals how to trade part-time without walking away from meaningful careers. At the heart of her message isn’t hype or speculation — it’s discipline, emotional neutrality, and the power of following a system.
You’ll hear powerful reflections on leverage, risk, mindset, and why financial freedom isn’t about escape — it’s about creating options no economy, boss, or life stage can take away.
💡 In This Episode, You’ll Discover:
• The “golden handcuff” many successful professionals never question
• Why structure — not prediction — builds confidence in the markets
• How emotional discipline shapes financial outcomes
• The misunderstood meaning of leverage
• Why financial freedom means security without panic
• How small, consistent actions create long-term choice
