“Dream Big, Plan Backwards” with Suzanne Powell – Reward Podcast Episode 33

When it comes to wealth, most women were taught to play it safe, stay small, or hand over the reins altogether. But today’s women leaders know what’s possible when you STOP following the rules — and start building your *own* framework for success.

Suzanne Powell came from humble beginnings in a trailer park outside Detroit, and today manages over $145 million in assets. How? She made a conscious decision early on: Her future would look nothing like her past. Today, she’s the founder of Meridian Wealth Management and a trusted advisor to women ready to take ownership of their financial lives.

In this episode of REWARD: The Podcast of The Trust, our founder and host Ali Brown sits down with Suzanne for a powerful conversation about money, motherhood, and the mindset required to create a life of freedom. They explore how women can lead in their wealth journeys, why delegation is a game changer, and how Suzanne’s approach to business and balance is helping others rise — on their own terms.

On this episode of the #REWARDPodcast, you’ll hear:

• The moment she decided to design a life that looked radically different from the one she came from.

• Why financial planning is not just about the numbers — it’s about creating freedom and fulfillment.

• Suzanne’s refreshing take on balancing business and family without losing yourself in the process.

• The power of women taking the financial lead — and how The Trust became a key part of her journey.

• And why delegation isn’t a luxury… it’s a strategy for building the life you actually want.
