New Book ‘Empire State of Mind’ by Franziska von Fischer Illuminates Wealth-Building Secrets

NY, UNITED STATES, January 5, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Southern California entrepreneur, real estate investor, and debut author Franziska von Fischer has released her groundbreaking book, “Empire State of Mind.” Known for her strategic, hands-on approach to wealth-building, von Fischer offers a bold and practical guide that redefines how to achieve financial freedom. Published at just the right time, this inspiring work is already making waves among readers seeking to take control of their financial future.

The book delivers a step-by-step approach to building wealth from the ground up. Without relying on significant savings or insider connections, readers will learn how to transform their mindset and unlock opportunities in real estate and beyond.

At its core, “Empire State of Mind” emphasizes that wealth isn’t about starting with money – it’s about cultivating the right mindset, focus, and discipline. Each chapter draws from von Fischer’s real-world experiences in overcoming financial instability, making bold decisions, and rebounding from setbacks. Insights include practical strategies to succeed in real estate investing with limited resources, along with lessons in long-term thinking and resilience from von Fischer’s own entrepreneurial journey.

Readers will walk away with tools to:

• Reframe their approach to money and opportunities.
• Develop discipline and focus for achieving generational wealth.
• Begin their wealth-building process without large upfront capital.
• Navigate real estate investing as a beginner, even in challenging markets.
• Build financial security by creating step-by-step, sustainable strategies.

“I’m most excited that readers will realize they don’t need permission, perfect timing, or traditional gatekeepers to start building wealth – just clarity, discipline, and the courage to think differently,” said von Fischer about the inspiration behind her book.

Inspiring and empowering while remaining grounded in applicable, actionable information, the book serves as a gateway to achieving financial freedom.

“Empire State of Mind” (ISBN: 9781966074311 / 9781966074304) can be purchased through retailers worldwide, including Amazon and Barnes & Noble. The hardcover retails for $32.99, the paperback retails for $19.99, and the ebook retails for $7.99. Review copies and interviews with the author are available upon request.
