  • #021: 1 in 3 Adults Have This. Are you the 1?

    We’d love to hear from you! Send us a text!

    1 in 3 Adults with Children under the age of 18  have an Estate Plan in place.
     
    What would happen to your children if you weren't there tomorrow to care for them?  What would happen to your assets and things you've worked your whole life to acquire? 
    Most of us don't want to think about such a topic, but in this episode, April sits down with Estate Planning Attorney Shayna Borakove to discuss just how important it truly is to have an Estate Plan in place and shares some of the not-so-great outcomes that could occur if you don't.

    It's easy to be distracted by the day-to-day fires that scream for our attention-laundry, kids swim lessons, the mail, you name it!  But what would happen if you were gone?  Would any of that even matter?  If you're like most Adults, you've either avoided this topic all together because it's uncomfortable or overwhelming - OR - you just haven't gotten around to it.

    Listen in as April asks the questions you've probably been thinking (but didn't want to ask)-questions like
    Why do I need an Estate Plan and what's the worse that could happen if I don't have one?
    If I only do 1 thing, what should it be?
    How do I select someone to raise my kids if I'm unable to? 

    These and many more questions are addressed in Episode #021 in an attempt to inspire you to stop being "too busy" and make this a priority.  We take the fear out of the topic and replace it with empowerment!

    Is there really any more powerful way to show the ones you love just how much you truly love them?

    This episode is part of the "Become An Adult" 6-part series leading up to April's Birthday (and her desire to help YOU get your affairs in order and Become An Adult alongside her).

  • #020: Money. It Only Takes 1 Generation to Become Millionaires

    We’d love to hear from you! Send us a text!

    Listen in as Darren Port of Tota Vita walks us through the importance of having a Financial Plan, how it only takes 1 generation to change your family’s money-path, and why it’s soo smart to teach your children about money when they’re young.


    Darren is April’s personal Financial Advisor and in true-Good Karma Form, she’s learned soo much from him that she wanted to share it with you-in hopes it inspires you and enhances your life.


    Here are a few highlights from the show we think you’ll enjoy:

    • "We can empower people to do more with what they have just by giving them ideas they’ve never considered"
    • The majority of marriage arguments revolve around money.
    • “Individuals with anxiety or depression are 3 times more likely to be in debt or not be able to grasp their finances which ends up spiraling them into further emotional challenges”
    • One of main reasons people say they haven’t started working with a Financial Advisor is because they feel inadequate.    -Does that seem like a vicious circle to anyone else?
    • Darren shares creative ideas to teach our young children ways to motivate and educate kids during their formative ages.  

    Best time to plant the tree-20 years ago. 2nd Best time, now.

  • #016: Beauty On The Inside & Out. With Sarah Bigley Beauty

    We’d love to hear from you! Send us a text!

     “Everything’s Possible”. 
    Beauty on the inside & out. 
    Love,
     Sarah Bigley Beauty 

    🙌When I meet someone that’s putting good into the world, I want to help pay it forward…this is my karma….my karma is I’m a connector.  💖

    Sarah Is putting some really good karma into the world and I love her story.  

    So I want to connect you-to expand your paradigm & cheer on an incredible Woman doing great things.  Can you imagine moving to another country.  Not only has Sarah Bigley moved across the planet and went from calling Germany her home to now being a Wisconsin Resident, but she also became a Mother, started a business, became her own boss and has put in the hard work every step of the way.  

    She’s a beautiful example of Good Karma in action as well as living what some would call, the American Dream.  She gave up a career with a surplus of abundance to follow a dream and believe in herself.  

    🤞She Took The Leap!

    Listen to Sarah’s Journey and the incredible wisdom she shares with listeners and each person who’s lucky enough to land an appointment in her chair.  

     

    👀 If you’ve been considering or daydreaming about starting your own business, or becoming more self-reliant, this episode will fill you with inspiration-an ability to actually hear from someone who’s just a few steps ahead of you on your journey to living an intentional and fulfilling life.  

     

    👉Teachers – Listen Up!  Sarah shares how a Teacher is the reason she is where she’s at today-what a gift.

    Teachers are instrumental in our path and our journey

     

      DRINK CHIP:  Wisdom from Sarah~

    • When you’re doing something you love, the money will follow.  
    • Success doesn’t occur overnight-you have to build it brick by brick and many of those bricks are filled with blind faith and believing in yourself.
    • Words have power over people choose your words thoughtfully and be aware when other people are affecting your energy.
    • When you’re on the right path, God/Universe/Angels/Frequency will provide.
    • Money is an interesting thing.  If you don’t take control over your money, your money will control you.
    • You need to be fair with people.
    • When things freak you out, you need to take a step back and understand-“is this going to matter in a year from now”?
    • Step out of your emotions and look at the reality of what’s happening…and then let go.
    • I believe we were all born with purpose. And you’ll know when you’re walking in purpose.
    • It’s okay to make mistakes.

  • #015: Eat The Frog! Stop Procrastinating on the Adult Stuff. ~Love T&A

    We’d love to hear from you! Send us a text!

    Episode #015 is part 2 of the 2-part series:
    In E. #014  Tony Hudzinski (April's dreamy husband) sits down with April as they discuss How to Get on the Same Page as a Couple and Tony shares his wisdom on How to Decide What To Spend Your Time On by using The Eisenhower Matrix to determine what's Urgent, what's Important and how to prioritize.

    April applies this concept to two BIG topics that most Parents of young children (and actually most people in general) often avoid:
    Adult Topics of:
    -Money (aka, your personal finances)
    -Having an Estate Plan (aka, retirement, wills, all the adult-uncomfortable stuff)

    The conversation is soo rich and useful, that the couple decided to split the recording into 2 podcasts (Episodes #014 & #015) to be respectful of listeners time-let's face it, if you're like them, it's hard to listen & take notes when you're chasing kiddos around!

    E.#015 dives into Estate Planning & Personal Finance and the concept of Eating the Frog (which is just a fun way to say STOP PROCRASTINATING).  Here we learn that 1in3 Adults with children under the age of 18 has Estate Planning documents in place.

    You Guys~ 1 in 3?!?!?  That's kinda scary when you think about it.

    April shares personal stories on why she's soo motivated to change that statistic and offers a resource to help kickstart listeners into taking action in an effort to protect those you love most.

    As always, a shameless plug for T&A's Real Estate Business ~The Ski Team Realtors is nested amongst snapshots of the couple's adorable children.

    This Episode's Drink Chip is:
    A Road Map to get started on your Estate Planning Journey

    Love this Episode? Be sure to listen to Episode #014!

    Don't forget to Write A Review on iTunes-this helps the show reach more people and provides great feedback to help shape the direction of the podcast.

    Was your curiosity peaked when April shared she coaches early-stage Entrepreneurs?  She also has a wealth of knowledge around Money and thoroughly enjoys Mentoring people on How To Take Control of Your Personal Finances.

    Oh, and let's not forget-Because 1 in 3 Adults with Children under the age of 18 Does Not have an Estate Plan in place, April's passionately trying to change the world by offering her Estate Plan Road Map.  This resource will kickstart you to going from avoiding the topic to having an Estate Plan-In Hand!

  • #013: What's the Worst that Could Happen When You Push Yourself Beyond Your Comfort Zone?

    We’d love to hear from you! Send us a text!

    Today’s conversation is with Owners of Haumea Yoga & Fitness Studio, Kristin & Megan.  
    And it’s not just about yoga!  
    We do cover some important info for anyone interested in exploring adding yoga to improve their overall physical and mental health, but our time together is soo much deeper!  We talk about how these two phenomenal women came into yoga, what prompted them to take the leap and start a business and the surprises they’ve encountered along the way.

    I’ve had the privilege of watching Haumea go from an idea to reality & cannot be more giddy to introduce you to two women who truly took the leap and have been building their wings ever since. 

    This conversation covers some wonderful topics and if you're someone who daydreams of taking that leap and building a business that holds true meaning in your heart, you don't want to miss a moment of this episode!!

    Key Takeaways I had from our time together:

    • Listen to that whisper that says you should Go For It!
    • There will NEVER be a "Right" time to make the leap into starting a business.
    • Yoga offers different benefits for each person-only YOU know what you need.
    • If we don't ask questions, then we'll never know.
    • Haumea means Goddess of Childbirth & Fertility in the Hawaiian Culture.
    • Ya Gotta Put Yourself Out There! Try new things-you may love it! If you don't try, you'll never know (*I tell this to my kids with regards to eating their veggies and trying new food so this message can apply to all areas of life)


    And my favorite~
    Growth happens when you push yourself to wobble or fall down, not when you're comfortable.
