Sinopsis

Not all wealth can be held. Some is carried. Some is lived.

You can build a life that looks rich from the outside while quietly losing the parts of it that made you feel alive.

The dominant culture teaches us to move faster, build bigger, accumulate more. The income line rises. The titles get longer. The calendar fills. From the outside, everything appears to be working.

Then, somewhere mid-stride, a quieter question arrives:

Why does success still feel so incomplete?

The Wealth of Intention is for the rebels, the seekers, and the simplifiers.

For entrepreneurs whose businesses soar while their presence shrinks. For investors who master markets but miss moments. For professionals, parents, leaders, and builders who have paused mid-success and wondered whether there is more to wealth than the ledger shows.

Derek Henderson writes at the intersection of finance and philosophy. A Canadian Portfolio Manager and Family Enterprise Advisor, he has spent decades inside wealth management, where the conversations that mattered most rarely began with markets. They began with the questions that never appear on a balance sheet or bank account:

What does it mean to live a wealthy life?

This is not another book about chasing more. It is a book about seeing clearly. About dismantling familiar myths around happiness, purpose, balance, and success — and finding, beneath them, a deeper definition of wealth.

Henderson takes the principles every great investor understands and turns them inward. Because before you allocate a dollar, you have already allocated yourself. The most consequential portfolio of your life is not financial. It is made of your most finite resources, your time, your energy, your attention, and the quiet force that directs them all: intention.

Across twenty chapters and five interconnected parts — Reflections, Resources, Rivers, Rhythms, and Return — Henderson invites readers to examine the illusions they have inherited, reclaim the resources they have undervalued, and return to a slower, wiser, richer way of living.

Inside, you'll discover:

  • Why more so often comes at the cost of meaning
  • How to allocate time, energy, and attention with the same discipline you allocate capital
  • Why intention is the one input that compounds across every part of a life
  • How philosophy, behavioral finance, and lived experience can reshape your definition of fortune
  • Why discipline, simplicity, consistency, and patience are life rhythms, not just financial virtues
  • How to return to alignment without burning down everything you have built


Fortune beyond finance is not a distant destination. It becomes available when you stop chasing wealth and start redefining it.

If you have ever wondered whether there is a richer way to live — not richer in possessions, but in meaning, presence, and clarity — The Wealth of Intention is your invitation.

Wealth isn't what we accumulate. It's what we cultivate.

Derek Henderson is a Canadian Portfolio Manager and Family Enterprise Advisor working at the convergence of capital, continuity, and consciousness. As a senior advisor at Canada's largest bank and wealth management firm, he guides families and entrepreneurs through investment strategy, intergenerational planning, and the long arc of stewardship.After years helping families navigate growth, liquidity, succession, and uncertainty, Derek came to see that the hardest questions in wealth are rarely about markets. They are about alignment, intention, and the quiet forces that shape financial decisions. When money is treated only as something to measure, even the most thoughtful plans can drift. When intention is examined, wealth begins to take deeper form.
