Fan Favorite: This episode originally aired on June 19, 2022. What up, homies! It's your girl Lisa Bilyeu, and welcome back to the Women of Impact podcast, where we dive deep and come out stronger. Today, I'm absolutely pumped to bring you an episode with none other than my wonderful hubby, Tom Bilyeu!

We're filling in the blanks on "Lisa_the 5 things every woman must do," but plot twist, it's Tom who’s unraveling the deep layers of our dreams, the stories we tell ourselves, and all those raw emotions! Imagine pursuing dreams not just to achieve them, but to let them guide you to places you didn’t know existed.

Tom walks us through how to balance those overwhelming moments of imposter syndrome with tangible tools. So ladies, lean in because there's so much magic in the “high five habit” that Mel brings up – a bump to self-love and self-trust that’ll knock your socks off!

And of course, we’re unpacking those powerful pillars of life: from the dynamics in our spaces, relationships, and habits, to managing that internal chatter that does NOT own your life. Because let's face it, those sneaky little day-to-day choices pile up to create our reality. Yes, girl, WE are making our own dreams!

So buckle up and let's embrace the journey to becoming unshakeable and impactful women together. Remember, if this episode lights you up, do the things – rate, review, and subscribe.

Introducing Navigating the Insane Insurance System w/ Consumer Reports' Lisa Gill #950 from How to Money.

Follow the show: How to Money

The price of gas, the price of eggs and milk- these are the kinds of expenses that we’re very sensitive to as consumers because of how frequently we make these purchases. And don’t forget visibility of course with the price per gallon essentially plastered on electronic billboards we consistently drive past! But the cost of insurance feels like the exact opposite. We rarely shop for coverage, it’s not often discussed, and automatic payments insulate us from rising premiums. In the case of homeowners insurance there’s an additional layer of insensitivity in the form of escrow. But insurance is becoming more of a burden and here to tackle this problem is Lisa Gill from Consumer Reports. Lisa is an investigative journalist and we’re going to discuss everything from wildfires to prescription drugs, what to do if you receive an insurance cancellation notice, the steps to take when you receive a medical bill that’s way too high, and much more during our episode!

Introducing Goodbye Uncle Jack (PODCAST EXCLUSIVE EPISODE) from MrBallen Podcast: Strange, Dark & Mysterious Stories.

Follow the show: MrBallen Podcast: Strange, Dark & Mysterious Stories

Late one afternoon in the summer of 2014, a pawnshop owner was updating his inventory logs when the bell above the front door jingled. A young couple walked inside and approached the counter. The man said he had a few items to sell, then opened a drawstring bag and dumped the contents onto the counter. A collection of gold chains, rings, and watches spilled out. Many of the pieces were twisted and mangled. And instantly, the hairs on the pawnshop owner’s neck stood up. Because everything about this interaction – from the large quantity of damaged jewelry to the careless way the pieces had been thrown in a bag together – told him that these items were stolen. And this made the owner extremely nervous, because he had cash in the register and didn’t know what the thieves might be capable of. He needed to get them out of the store quickly, without revealing that he was on to them. So, he told the couple he didn’t have enough cash to buy the jewelry now, but would send some pictures to his broker to see if they were interested. The couple agreed and let him take the photos. As soon as they were gone, the owner called the police, and it soon became clear he’d stumbled onto something much bigger than theft. Because this jewelry was linked to a murder case that had rocked a small, suburban community and baffled police.

The 3 biggest dating mistakes and how to fix them.

Why relying on dating apps alone can hurt your love life.

How the fear of rejection and loneliness affect attraction.

Why do we chase people who ignore us?
