When I was in school, my teachers always said that if you wanted to investigate something, you have to ask the five ‘W Questions’: who, what, where, when, and why. Today, I want you to apply that thinking to figure out what’s holding you back from the financial level that you want to be at. I get into how to evaluate who you’re hanging out with, what’s going to get you to your goals, when you work best, where you’re living, and why you’ve set that certain number in your head. I share what my ans...

I just got done with some one-on-one coaching calls that I do with everybody in my Elite Mastermind, and I noticed a theme in those conversations. People are planting seeds for bigger dreams and gaining so much clarity in their businesses by going to in-person events. We made it work for two years by doing things via Zoom and online groups, but this is your wakeup call to get back into those physical rooms. I share three examples of the power of in-person networking, whether it’s something that’...

This is the seed planting stage, and your opportunity to experience explosive growth.

By definition, a recession is just two quarters in a row of negative growth for the GDP, or gross domestic product. In a healthy economy when the GDP is growing three to five percent, a recession simply means negative growth for six months. There’s so much misinformation and fear mongering around recessions, but the reality is that they’re a self-fulfilling prophecy most of the time. I break down why you don’t need to freeze your spending and stress out about the possibility of an upcoming reces...

Lori and I have noticed this big cultural shift from the hustle and grind mindset to letting things flow and take their natural course. Which one is better? Like most things, I think it’s best to exist somewhere in the middle of the two extremes. We talk about learning how to hustle with boundaries, giving yourself at least one day a week to be present, and practicing intentional planning. There are moments and seasons when you’re going to have to give it your all, but recognize that you and you...

You can make a world-changing and life-changing impact with a lot of money. But, you can't make a lot of money if you're not chasing down your big, audacious dreams. I know every single person listening to this show has one of those dreams, and not only are you doing yourself a disservice by keeping it a secret, but also, you’re not letting the world benefit from your innovation. What if people like Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk, and Oprah were content with their 9-5 jobs and didn’t take the risk to pur...

When you look at your banking app and see what your checking and savings account add up to, what’s the number that makes you feel safe? We all have that amount in our heads and when we see it, we tend to kick our feet up, give ourselves some leniency, and slow down our hustle. My number one money hack to counteract this behavior, is that I will purposely move money out of these accounts and put it somewhere smart, so I can go to work getting back to that “safe” number. By making yourself drop be...

Every morning, I start my day with a blank page and four journal prompts. I reflect on what I’m grateful for, what I want to manifest, why I’m working, and one goal for my relationship.

When you celebrate other people's moments of abundance and accomplishments, it reinforces to them that the hard work to get there was worth it. That positive reinforcement is going to make them go do it again. Plus, when you start to celebrate other people’s wins, you feel good. And when you feel good, you’re reminded that those things are worth pursuing for yourself. Today, I want to share a story of celebrating other people’s financial accomplishments and the ripple effect that those moments h...

I just hosted one of my weekend Elite Mastermind group sessions and Lori and I both feel so recharged from the amazing guest speakers and talented people who were in that room. Lori shares something that executive life coach Adrian Koehler said, which is, “What do you know for sure that you spend way too much time trying to prove is false?” It made me think about where my decision making is coming from and how to lead from a place of trust. I was really impacted by what Dan Fleischman, a genius ...

The key to abundance is to look to the future and let go of the past. You need to dream, manifest, plan, journal and seek evidence that supports how you want to feel, where you want to go and what you want to achieve. Forget about where you've already been. Thinking about what you could’ve, should’ve or would’ve done in the past isn’t going to help you align with your future self. In today’s episode, I’m sharing how this outlook shift has changed mine and Lori’s lives, plus one of my favorite ex...

I recently had the pleasure of sitting next to a kind and successful retired entrepreneur on a flight home, and he was nice enough to impart some wisdom with me that I want to share with you all today. There's a difference between being frugal in order to put yourself in a good situation and then continuing to be frugal when you don't have to be. At some point, you have to reward yourself. When you're motivated by tangible things, sometimes that's more powerful than being motivated by something ...

We all have a subconscious bias that we carry from our backgrounds and life experiences. We might believe that something is totally unbiased and true, but the reality is that there’s a lot of influence behind-the-scenes that we’re not aware of, and it can influence big decisions you make that will affect your own life. To keep you aware of accidental bias, I’m sharing two examples of where I’ve seen accidental bias come into play recently and my (unbiased) advice for how to stay aware of that. I...
