This week’s Big Story focuses on the tragic murder of Renee Nicole Good by an ICE agent, a horrific act that highlights the dangers facing our community and the need for accountability. For the Big Interview, I speak with Gwen Howerton, a reporter for Chron.com, about the city of Arlington, Texas, inexplicably repealing its LGBTQ+ protective ordinance under the guise of “inclusivity.” In News Bites, I cover a report showing 400,000 trans people have fled red states and celebrate the Children’s Hospital of Colorado quashing a DOJ subpoena. Finally, in Random Acts, I announce that Renee’s death has compelled me to resume my solitary street corner protests to stand publicly against hate.

If you earn well, do the “right” things financially, and still feel uncertain about your next move—this episode is for you.

This New Year’s episode of the Do.Different.Better Show is not about budgeting tips or resolutions. It’s about stepping back to examine what the past year actually taught us about money, ownership, and decision-making when income alone no longer feels like security.

Host Elaine Rasmussen reflects on the core lessons that surfaced across the show this year—why high earners often feel stuck, how understanding the system changes your leverage, and why integration matters more than consuming more financial content.

This conversation is designed for professionals who are financially responsible but strategically overloaded—people who don’t need more information, but better clarity.

In this episode, we explore:

Elaine also shares why she created Do.Different.Better LIVE, a focused, in-person experience for people ready to slow down, think clearly, and align their money with how they actually want to live and work.
