Hello, and welcome back to Health in Wealth®.

I’m Ana Ramos, and I’m so glad you’re here.

Today, we’re unpacking a topic that feels especially timely as we move into a new year—the myth of “having it all.”

We hear this phrase everywhere—on social media, in conversations about success, achievement, motherhood, career, relationships, even wellbeing. But what does it actually mean in real life? And what happens when we chase that idea without ever questioning whose version of “all” we’re trying to have?

To help us explore this with depth, nuance, and heart, I’m honored to be joined by Fernanda Bressan—a coach, facilitator, guide, and founder of Foundfully.

Fernanda works deeply with high achievers and change-makers—helping them step out of “stuckness” and into more intentional, aligned ways of living. Her work centers on practical momentum without burnout, communication that clears space for connection, and boundaries that protect what actually matters. She also designs experiences that bring women together in community and reflection—like retreats grounded in nature, stillness, and introspection.

What I love about Fernanda is that her philosophy isn’t just theoretical. She lives it.

She has intentionally slowed her pace, explored her identity beyond familiar roles, embraced rest and boundaries, and completed a meditation certification to deepen her own practice—and hers is a story of moving toward a life that feels authentic, not after some ill-defined finish line.

Today, we’ll talk about what it really looks like to assess your life honestly—without comparing yourself to curated markers of success—and how fulfilment emerges not from having everything at once, but from choosing what matters most in each season of life.

So, whether you’re in a season of high output, deep rest, recalibration, or quiet soul-searching, I invite you to settle in with curiosity as we explore a more grounded, aligned definition of success.

Let’s begin.

Welcome back to the Health in Wealth™ podcast, where we explore the beautiful, intimate connection between your body, your mind, and your money… and how tending to one transforms them all. I’m your host, Ana Ramos, and today we’re diving into something very close to my heart — the Five Pillars of Wealth, and how my own journey through them has shaped the way I live, breathe, and create a life of wealth-being.

This season, we’ve been exploring a theme I love — biohacking. Not in the sense of gadgets or extreme optimization… but in the sense of understanding the body as the first messenger. The gentlest scientist. The place where our money stories live long before they show up in our bank accounts or our decisions.

When I first started this work, I believed wealth belonged mostly to the financial pillar — strategy, planning, structure. And while those pieces matter, what I’ve come to realize is that real wealth — sustainable, joyful, deeply rooted wealth — blooms only when all five pillars are in conversation with one another. When the body is regulated… when relationships feel safe… when purpose is aligned… when finances flow… and when personal growth becomes a way of being.

For many years, I tried to outrun discomfort, to work my way around misalignment, to keep pushing even when my body was whispering — sometimes shouting — that something wasn’t right. And like many of you, I learned the hard way that when one pillar falls out of harmony, it sends a ripple through the others.

In today’s episode, I’m going to share the questions I still ask myself — the ones that help me return to center when life gets loud. Questions that bring the nervous system back into safety, that bring clarity to decision-making, and that remind me that wealth-being is not created through pressure… but through presence.

So wherever you are — walking, resting, driving, or simply listening — I invite you to take one gentle breath with me. Let your body arrive. Let your mind soften. And let’s explore what it means to build a life not from urgency… but from harmony.

This is the journey back to you. This is the journey back to wealth-being. Let’s begin.

Welcome back to the Health in Wealth™ podcast.

I’m Ana Ramos, and as always, I’m grateful to share this space with you.

As we move through life — our careers, our ambitions, our daily responsibilities — it’s so easy to forget the one practice that can change everything: gratitude.
Not the gratitude we write on lists or rush through at the end of the day…
but the gratitude we embody — the kind that softens our nervous system, expands our perspective, and shifts the energy with which we meet the world.

Today's guest is someone who understands this deeply, and she is proof that even the most technical fields are made richer by heart, intention and presence.

Dalene Deale is a fintech strategist, regulatory specialist, and the founder of Business Growth Hacking. She brings big-picture clarity to complex systems, and her work influences some of South Africa’s most important digital identity and financial frameworks.

But what I find most inspiring about Dalene is not just her mind — it’s her humanity.
She is a high achiever who has learned to channel her ADHD, her lived experiences, and her unstoppable curiosity into a life filled with meaning, creativity, and purpose.

Today, we’ll explore how gratitude has shaped her path — how it supports achievement, expands resilience, anchors focus, and transforms the way we experience both our inner and outer worlds.

So take a breath…
Settle in…
And let’s explore the power of gratitude in a life lived fully, purposefully, and with a deep connection to wealth-being.
