  • A Personal Look into my Financial Independence Journey Volume 1

    As you might be aware, we promote an alternative approach to Financial Independence on this channel - a more entrepreneurial and feminine one.


    But have you ever wondered, "I'm curious what this chick is doing herself.  What does her approach look like?"

    Now, I've told a lot of stories from my entrepreneurial journey and the ups and downs of business but I've never drawn back the curtain on my personal financial journey.

    Today that changes.  Welcome to the behind-the-scenes peak.

  • Put Your Money Where You Mouth Is

    If you're listening to this the day it airs, tomorrow is Halloween and election day is next week.  Some pretty scary days ahead... LOL


    Voting is a great way to take action in support of your statements, opinions, and values.  If you haven't yet, please vote!

    As you cast your ballot and think about the results of our collective action, I invite you to also think about how you vote with your money every single day.  

    From where you spend to how you save and invest to who you owe money to, your dollars are supporting or harming people every single day.  

    Wouldn't it be a good idea to make sure your dollars are aligned with your values?  


    Isn't it a powerful human responsibility to put your money where your mouth is and take action in support of your values?  

    If you'd like to do that or want to learn how to do that better, you're in the right place... 

    I can pretty much guarantee you that what I share today isn't what you'll hear any where else.

  • How to Save Money

    We all know we SHOULD save but it's easier said than done.  Why save when today has enough worries of its own?  Can't we just let tomorrow worry about itself?


    On the flip side, if we never save, we'll never break the paycheck to paycheck cycle and we might even go into debt when an emergency arrives.  We'll also never have the cash to do some really awesome things like major vacations or putting a down payment on a home.

    I'm a big believer in saving money to help increase our happiness level - a nice security blanket of savings has very much increased my happiness level.  

    And like I shared in the last episode, the wealthy who remain happy create a security blanket rather than give themselves everything they want.


    So, if you want some extra motivation and some great how to's for increasing your saving, that's exactly what I have for you today.

  • Defeating the Mo' Money Mo' Problems Trap

    Notorious B.I.G. said it in the late 90s.


    In 2012 Richard Watts published a book titled, "Fables of Fortune: What Rich People Have That You Don't Want."  He actually makes a really good point that us middle income Americans probably have things the rich would love to have but don't.  While we're dreaming away about something we'll likely never have, they are dreaming about what we've already got.

    In an NPR interview I found, Richard shares that the wealthy people who have not created more problems for themselves have 1 thing in common.  

    I'll share that with you today and how you can forego more problems as your income and wealth increase.

  • My Top 10 Money Affirmations

    You might have heard others talk about the law of attraction and abundance affirmations that attract more than enough to you.


    I have a different approach to money affirmations.  Sometimes it's less about the money and more about enjoying life more.  Sometimes it's more about personal growth than making our wallet fatter.  Sometimes it's about healing or values or time freedom.  

    If you're looking for money affirmations that go beyond "I am a magnet for money" then you're in the right place.  

    Here are my top 10 money affirmations that go beyond money to total life transformation.

  • Money verses Happiness

    Does money = happiness?  Do those who are happy make more money?  Does making more money make you more happy?


    Maybe you think a lack of money can lead to a lack of happiness.  Consider the subsistence farmer who grows all her own food and has plenty to share but doesn't make money.  Do you think she can't be happy?

    Maybe you think a depressed person can't make a lot of money.  Consider how many in Hollywood appear to be happy but inside they are far from it... and yet they make millions.

    Money and happiness and often misunderstood.  

    Today, I want to share with you how you might be happier and have a healthy relationship with money.  

    Might it be those with a healthy relationship with money - no matter how much or how little they have - be the happiest people on the planet? 

     And more importantly, what does that mean for you?

  • Profit First for Our Employees

    Ever wondered what it's like to work for an entrepreneur?


    The entrepreneur is building their dream, taking all the credit, and can feel betrayed if any of the initial team leaves.

    It's not for everybody.

    If you're the entrepreneur, I believe there's 1 key component that will make you a better employer.  Solve this and most everything else will fall into place.

  • Profit First Because the Children Are Watching

    A 2015 study in Sweden found that children with entrepreneurial parents were very likely to become entrepreneurs themselves.  It was actually even more likely if the child was adopted by an entrepreneur. AND it stuck to gender lines.  If the mom was an entrepreneur, her daughter was more likely to be an entrepreneur.  

    Our kids look to us as role models.  I think we know this and didn't need a study to tell us.


    But what if you don't have kids?  What if you feel like you're not being a good role model to kids, family, friends, the next generation as a whole?

    Today, I want to share with you why I believe Profit First gives you an easy way to inspire future entrepreneurs or at least show those you love that you care about them and want to be with them.

  • Profit First Because the Goal is Sustainability NOT Burnout

    Burnout and depression for entrepreneurs is real.  

    One survey found that about 1 out of 3 entrepreneurs experience the effects of depression and half of those (1 out 6 in total) experience full on burnout.  If you're keeping track that's about 17% of entrepreneurs who will burnout.  And that study was from May 2019... long before the pandemic.


    I've had my own experience here and will tell you that story but first I want you to know this:

    If you are experiencing depression or burnout, it's not your fault.  There are so many factors at play - air pollution, social distancing, general uncertainty.  I'm going to share some ideas that are within your control but please keep in mind, this is a complex area and you deserve professional help if you believe it would be beneficial.  

    You can get through it and create a better life for yourself.

  • Profit First Because Anything Less is Selfish

    Here's a controversial idea: We all do everything we do because we are selfish.  Even giving to charity is because we are selfish.  We give in order to feel good and relieve a sense of guilt if we didn't give.


    We have children because we selfishly want that unconditional love and to pass on ourselves to the future.

    We get pets for that unconditional love as well.

    Everyone is selfish.  It's human nature.

    But some are more selfish than others.  They take more and more at the expense of others.

    Today we ask the question, "Is taking a profit from your business too selfish?"
