People ask me all the time what my secret is to increasing my income and net worth significantly every year. Today, I’m sharing an example of how I do that by thinking outside the box and taking advantage of every opportunity that comes my way. Instead of giving up on trying to find a rental for our annual family holiday vacation, I invested in a used Suburban that’s not only a tax write off, but I can also create a new stream of income on the peer-to-peer car sharing app Turo. Tune in to hear more about how to turn your challenges into major financial wins. 

IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALK ABOUT:

• Turning a challenge into an income opportunity 
• Creating a new cash flow with my Suburban 
• Being a creative problem solver 
• An update on applications for my Elite Mastermind

Is it really the most wonderful time of the year? For so many of us, the holidays can be extremely stressful and actually take away from the spirit of gratitude and connecting with loved ones. That’s why about six years ago, we decided to create new traditions that actually get us excited about spending time with family without sacrificing what makes us feel good mentally, spiritually, and physically. We share our top tips and ideas for how to reimagine the holiday season and some things that we like to do with our family to celebrate. 

IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALK ABOUT:

• What would it look like if we really enjoyed the holidays?
• What would happen if you exchange the time and the money for experience over gifts?
• How can you create at least one new tradition around connecting?
• Our Christmas plans

The holidays are my favorite time of year, hands down. The lights, the trees, the movies–it’s all magical. But back when Lori and I were living beyond our means, the pressure we put on ourselves to get the most extravagant gifts for our family caused us major stress at the end of the year. In today’s episode, I’m talking about how we’ve switched the focus from presents under the tree to really tapping into each other's love languages and enjoying the holiday season with our family. I’m sharing some ideas for how you can spread Christmas cheer while staying on track with your financial goals.

• The pressures of gift giving 
• How to give more meaningful gifts
