Jamie (45) and Ryan (36) have been married for nearly a decade and share three kids, but their financial foundation was shaken when Ryan quit his high-paying finance job and cashed out his 401(k) without telling Jamie. Now earning far less, they're still spending like nothing changed, running up credit card debt and ending each month wondering where the money went. Jamie, the higher earner, is anxious about retirement and trust after years of financial surprises, while Ryan avoids money conversations and struggles with insecurity. Layered on top are a 10-year age gap, deep past trauma, and very different visions of a Rich Life. Can Ramit help them rebuild trust, create a real plan, and finally start acting like partners instead of adversaries? In this episode we uncover: • The moment Jamie learned Ryan quit his high-paying job and cashed out his 401(k) • How Ryan's breaking point at work led to a “nuclear option” decision that shifted stress from the office straight into their marriage Why earning nearly $300K still leaves them feeling broke • The trust fallout from repeated unilateral decisions, including quitting jobs, cashing out retirement accounts, and impulsive purchases • How Ryan's spending on shoes, clothes, and even a classic car mirrors patterns he watched growing up • Jamie's role as the default financial manager • The vacation-vs-things blame cycle that keeps them stuck spending instead of saving • Why hiding money in a separate savings account felt like the only way Jamie could protect their future • The uncomfortable truth behind their $13K emergency fund • How calling their own spending “stupid” and “dumb” keeps them trapped in shame instead of change • The emotional toll of living in constant financial vigilance while still spending freely on convenience and comfort • How a failed $500 spending rule exposed their lack of shared systems • The powerful influence of Midwestern money guilt, family secrecy, and conflicting childhood money messages • Jamie's past divorce and financial trauma • The shift from adversaries to collaborators Chapters: (00:00:00) “We'll just go our separate ways” (00:18:56) Ramit breaks down their numbers (00:40:49) “Smart people can make stupid choices” (00:52:26) “Can we become a team again?” (01:02:09) “Is this a Rich Life—or just a really long to-do list?” (01:14:36) “You've turned dysfunction into permission” (01:28:57) “I'm bitter that I have to pay it off” (01:39:21) Where are they now?

What if a stranger inviting you to build a boat halfway around the world led to meeting your wife, building a family, and discovering your life's work? In this episode, John Caprani, video advertising specialist for home service businesses, shares his unconventional journey from Ireland to West Africa to Fiji and finally to Spain. After meeting a Swiss sailor named Hans in 2011, John packed everything for a one-way ticket to Senegal to build a 72-foot wooden sailboat. That adventure led to a job in Fiji doing construction project management, where he met his wife within six weeks, married her six months later, and became a father 10 months after that. Six years later, with two kids under three and a deep dissatisfaction with his corporate job, John made the leap into entrepreneurship at age 37. Now specializing in video advertising for home service businesses generating $1M to $5M annually, he's helped clients book $800K in 30 days and $95K in 40 days using a simple approach that most marketers overlook: putting the founder on camera and building trust through personality instead of just showcasing work. John reveals why trust matters more than perfect craftsmanship when entering someone's home, why employees can never sell as effectively as founders on video, and how narrowing his focus to home services transformed his results.   [00:02:20] The Technology That Makes the World Smaller John is in Valencia, Spain (nine hours ahead of Seattle) Zoom and modern technology make global conversations seamless Kevin used to commercial fish in Alaska before technology like this existed The ability to work from anywhere is now a reality [00:04:00] What John Does: Video Advertising for Home Service Businesses Spent years as a copywriter but found it hard to sell to uneducated buyers Shifted 18 months ago to focus specifically on home service businesses Serves businesses doing upgrades: walls, paving, air conditioning, barns, storage units, renovations, landscaping Specializes in video advertising on Facebook and Instagram only Works with businesses selling high-ticket services for the home [00:06:33] Why Home Services Is Different: Trust Over Technique Local business marketing is not as sophisticated as e-commerce or online coaching Most local businesses aren't doing video marketing at all Those who do focus on work being done (pictures of installations) which doesn't solve the real problem John's approach: focus on personality and the business owner themselves [00:08:38] Kevin's Parallel Journey: Carpet Cleaning in 1995 Started carpet cleaning and restoration business in 1995 Blew through $300K in first year following traditional industry approach Advertised "two rooms and a hallway for $59.95" (then dropped to $49.95) Key lesson: trust is huge when you're in people's homes while they're at work [00:13:04] John's Background: From Father's Business to Sailing Father was entrepreneur in publishing, graphic arts, and printing Tried entrepreneurial things as teenager but they didn't work out Spent twenties traveling, went to UK, learned woodworking skills Learned artisan craft skills, made lovely things, lived hand to mouth existence Everything changed when he got married, needed more stability [00:14:20] The Construction Years: Getting Promoted Out of Success Friend offered job in construction industry doing project management for holiday resort renovations Was good at project management, actually being on site Got promoted out of job he was good at into job he sucked at: marketing and sales Had to learn copywriting and marketing to sell to traveling business clients [00:15:40] The Big Decision: Quit at 37 with Two Kids Under Three In 2018, didn't want to stay in construction, wanted freedom Knew online meant he could travel, move countries, income unaffected Was 37, married, two kids under age three Had enough money to live for maybe three or four months Quit job in September 2018, got first couple of clients, took it from there [00:20:16] The Jockey and the Horse John likens his role to being a jockey "The horse you ride on is most of the race won" Not magic on his part, certain factors need to be in place When it works, it really works [00:22:00] The Sweet Spot: Five to Fifteen Person Teams Prefers smaller businesses: 5-15 people team Direct relationship with founder No layers of bureaucracy Say "Can you help me?" John says "Yes," they say "Okay, let 'er rip" Bigger businesses (20-30+ people) have marketing team in-house, bureaucracy, people covering their own ass [00:23:08] The Non-Negotiable: A Good Assistant on the Phone John needs business owner to have assistant who is good on the phone When leads come in, owner should NOT be doing screening or appointment setting Owners are often best salesperson but definitely not best appointment setter They start to hate it because it's beneath them, then they hate John [00:27:00] The One-Way Ticket to Senegal Hans said: "I'm not gonna buy your ticket there, but I'll pay for everything after. I want to see that you get there on your own steam" "Show up at Dakar Airport in Senegal on such and such day, I'll be there to pick you up" John packed up, sold his vehicle, got one-way ticket to Dakar Worked together for 10-11 months building the boat, launched it, did sailing together [00:27:47] The German Guy in Fiji Hans was going to sail elsewhere, John didn't want to go back to Ireland Asked Hans: "Do you know anybody else who might have something interesting?" Hans: "I know this German guy in Fiji doing work on holiday resorts" German guy called a few days later: "I need a man. Can you be here in two weeks?" John: "Would you buy me a ticket?" German: "I'll send you a ticket today" Packed up from London, jumped on plane to Fiji [00:29:40] From Project Management to Sales to Entrepreneurship Started doing dusty construction project management on site in Fiji Got better at job, got promoted to sales Had to learn about selling Led to 2018 decision: "I have these sales skills, I know copywriting, I want out of construction, let's quit and go do my own thing" [00:30:06] The Big Leap: Married, Kids, No Steady Paycheck Pretty big step going from steady paycheck to own thing Mentally tough, but felt like it was now or never at 37 with two kids under three "Gun to the head moment, and gun to the head is a great motivator" Family helped: gave them place to stay while getting on feet in Ireland Wife was rock solid: "I don't understand why you're doing this, but if you want to do it, I'll support you" [00:32:20] The Turning Point: Everything's Actually Okay About 18 months after quitting, I was constantly worried: "Is this gonna fail?" Looked at himself: "Everything's okay. We've still got a place to live. Kids still have shoes. We have food. Nobody's going hungry" "This might not be working perfectly, but it's working. I've covered the basics. We're surviving and I can grow from here" [00:33:20] Five Years Later: Life in Valencia, Spain In 2024, decided time to move on from Ireland Glad to spend those years there, reconnect with family Wanted kids to know his family, wanted wife to become Irish citizen Sold up everything, packed into two cars, road tripped from Ireland to Spain Life has become so much better since moving to Spain [00:36:00] The Integration Life: No Rules About When You Work Don't have work-life balance with entrepreneurship Do get work-life integration if you're smart about it Bring everything in, don't live by rules about finishing work at certain time or can't do anything on weekends Do what you can when you can, find time to get everything in [00:39:38] Where to Find John Website: firedigitalmarketing.com (short video explaining what he does and how it helps) Facebook: John Caprani (most active there) Can get sense of who he is, his opinions and thoughts before reaching out Best place to connect [00:42:40] Repetition Over Perfection First time around won't be perfect, won't be what you feel is perfect in your mind Kevin's coach had him make 24-25 videos in one day walking through a process Every time got more comfortable, didn't have to think about what to say, got the flow [00:44:06] What Really Works: Belief and Confidence All the fancy copywriting, hacks, tactics are good, valuable, useful But what really works better than anything else: somebody who believes in what they do and has some confidence in themselves That'll convert better than anything   KEY QUOTES "If you are an eight out of 10 at your work, but you're like 10 out of 10 in terms of a human being and being trustworthy, people would care about that more than being a 10 out of 10 in the work and maybe being a five out of 10 in the character side of things." - John Caprani "Gun to the head is a great motivator. It'll get you to do shit you wouldn't normally do." - John Caprani "You don't get work-life balance [as an entrepreneur], but you do get work-life integration if you're smart about it." - John Caprani "There's nobody but the founder of a business who really has the conviction and has enough on the line to actually sell it as effectively on video." - John Caprani "All the different fancy copywriting and hacks and tactics, in the end, what really works better than anything else is somebody who believes in what they do and has some confidence in themselves. That'll convert better than anything." - John Caprani CONNECT WITH JOHN CAPRANI

The fellas are back with another brutally honest and hilariously unfiltered episode of the Bad Speakers Podcast, where hip-hop, sports, and real-life debates collide. This week's conversation gets spicy fast — from Diddy's ongoing scandals to NBA legends, boxing drama, relationship truth-telling, and the hottest rappers of 2025. The episode jumps off with a full breakdown of the Diddy documentary and whether 50 Cent is wrong for exposing Diddy's alleged shady business practices and sexual assault accusations. Is 50 just being petty… or is he doing necessary work? Next, the crew dives into Chris Paul being sent home by the Clippers during his retirement season, after clashing with teammates and management. Did CP3 deserve better? In boxing news, they react to Terence Crawford being stripped of his WBC title for refusing to pay a $300K sanctioning fee — is boxing corrupt, or is Crawford in the right? Then it gets heated with NBA talk as the guys break down LeBron James ending his double-digit scoring streak to make "the right play." Should the streak still count? And does Michael Jordan actually hold the real scoring streak? Plus, they debate whether MJ had a limited bag, or if the younger generation is just rewriting history out of hate. On the music side, they react to Billboard's 10 Hottest Female Rappers of 2025, review Lil Baby's new album “The Leaks,” and discuss 21 Savage's upcoming project “What Happened to the Streets?” They also break down a wild rumor involving a Buffalo wide receiver possibly point shaving, ask the age-old question “Are there any good women left?”, and celebrate Shedeur Sanders' breakout game with 300 yards and 3 TDs. This episode is a full mix of comedy, cultural commentary, sports debates, relationship talk, and hip-hop insight — the exact brand of intelligent ignorance you come here for.

The PREMIUM Masterclass starts December 16th-18th (its free): https://link.shaminataylor.com/the-premium-masterclass I am taking you through my process of creating a PREMIUM BRAND that can attract PREMIUM clients on repeat. This blueprint has created 51 millionaires and over 350 highest cash months

What if that shiny “record-breaking” month you're celebrating… isn't actually making you more money? In this episode, we're pulling back the curtain on one of the biggest myths in business: that more revenue equals more success. Spoiler alert - it doesn't. Fresh from our quarterly meeting with our accountant (where we hit our highest revenue month ever), we had a huge reality check. Yes, business is booming, but our profit margins? Not so much. And that's exactly why we're diving deep into the truth about scaling, profit, and what it really takes to grow a sustainable, soul-led business. In this juicy episode, you'll hear: ✨ Why chasing big numbers can actually keep you stuck ✨ The truth about “scaling seasons” (and why they often feel like a financial step backwards) ✨ How to know if your business is truly healthy - or just “Instagram healthy” ✨ The hidden costs of growth: team, marketing, systems, and lag time before returns kick in ✨ Simple ways to plug profit leaks - without working harder We share exactly what's happening inside our own seven-figure practice right now: the balancing act between paying ourselves well and investing in our next level. We've doubled our team, expanded our marketing, and refined our systems - all while learning firsthand that high revenue doesn't always mean high take-home pay. Here's the truth: You can have a million-dollar practice and feel broke. Or a $300K business and feel completely financially free. It's not about what you make, it's about what you keep. So if you've ever found yourself comparing your numbers to someone else's glossy success story, this episode will be your dose of grounded clarity. We'll walk you through how to: 

Most people spend 20 years chasing a salary they could make in 12 months with the right system.That's the $300K/year lie corporate America feeds you.Meanwhile, guys like Esteban are replacing their income in 2 years and building equity while they sleep.He's dropped $9K on ads that turned into 24 deals.He went from a corporate cubicle to running 2 multi-million dollar companies, serving some of the biggest real estate investors in the country.He's sharing how he did it… Plus, why answering a lead in 2–5 minutes can be the difference between a $25K assignment and no contract at all.If you want to scale as Esteban did, you need the two things that changed everything for him.The right people and a predictable flow of sellers.That's what led him to create RemoteLatinos.com, to connect investors with trained VAs who actually stick around.And it's the same reason he started GetSellers.io, after seeing how consistent, systemized lead generation turned $9K into 24 deals.Catch you later!LINKS & RESOURCES1,000 FREE Seller LeadsGet your first 1,000 seller leads FREE from our partner BatchLeads and start closing deals immediately.

In this episode, Mike breaks down one of the most important skills for any painting business owner who wants to grow: taking bigger swings in business. Most painting contractors stay stuck because they're afraid to invest, afraid to hire, or afraid to make decisions that could move their painting company forward. Mike explains why playing small is one of the biggest reasons painting businesses fail to scale past 300K, 500K, or even 1M per year.You'll learn why comfort destroys growth, how fear limits your ability to get painting leads, and why you can't build a profitable painting business by staying in maintenance mode. Mike shares the real mindset shift that helped transform Painter Growth, including how to make better business decisions, how to think like a CEO instead of a painter, and how to confidently invest in marketing, hiring, and systems that create long-term success.If you want to scale a painting business, get more painting leads, improve your systems, hire great painters, or take your painting company to the next level, this episode will help you break out of survival mode and finally start making moves that lead to real growth.

Weak performers waste opportunities you cannot replace. Improving sales team performance keeps customers from disappearing for good.

 Today Evie and Lindsay are spilling the tea on the real, raw, and slightly chaotic lessons they have learned across a decade of entrepreneurship.

In today's episode, Dr. Disha Spath sits down with Dr. Zwade Marshall—Emory- and Harvard-trained anesthesiologist, interventional pain specialist, CMO of Regenerative Spine and Pain Specialists, and co-founder/CEO of Doc2Doc Lending, a lending platform built by doctors for doctors. Dr. Marshall shares the real story behind why traditional banks misunderstand early-career physicians, how his own relocation struggle sparked Doc2Doc, and how their proprietary underwriting finally evaluates doctors based on potential, not current cash flow. Whether you're an early-career doctor trying to get approved for a loan, or an experienced physician thinking about launching your own practice, this episode is full of practical, real-world financial advice that medical training never covered. Key Topics Covered: 1. Why traditional banks undervalue physicians How big student loans and low early income distort our financial picture and why banks overlook our recession-proof earning potential. 2. How Doc2Doc Lending was born The moment Dr. Marshall realized the system was broken and how he built a lending model that evaluates physicians prospectively, not punitively. 3. What makes Doc2Doc underwriting different NPI verification, training stage, specialty, geography, cash-flow behaviors, and machine-learning insights that actually reflect physician realities. 4. When using leverage makes sense Why personal loans can be powerful tools for practice start-up costs, fix-and-flips, or bridging SBA delays and why they shouldn't be used for consumption. 5. Understanding loan types, rates, and flexibility How Doc2Doc's unsecured personal loans work, the monthly rate model, no-prepayment-penalty structure, and common use cases among physicians. 6. Credit scores, shame, and starting from scratch A discussion especially relevant for immigrants and young physicians with thin credit files plus why your early FICO score doesn't define your financial future. Listener Takeaways: How Doc2Doc evaluates doctors differently than banks Why physicians are statistically low-risk borrowers (even with $300K+ in loans) What new attendings need to know about credit scores, debt, and loan approvals Accessing fair and fast personal loans as a resident, fellow, or new attending How physicians can use lending to start a medical practice The most common mistakes new practice owners make and how to avoid them Why private practice and cash-based care models are creating new physician freedom Connect with Us: Host: Dr. Disha Spath, The Frugal Physician Guest: Dr. Zwade Marshall, CEO of Doc2Doc Lending   This episode is brought to you by Doc2Doc Lending.

When a traumatic brain injury forced Jenny Groberg to step away from her company for two years, it could have ended her business. Instead, it became the catalyst for exponential growth. Jenny, founder and CEO of BookSmarts Accounting and Bookkeeping, handed day-to-day leadership to her manager, Emily, granting her 10% ownership of the business plus profit sharing. During Jenny's absence, the company grew 30% year-over-year—scaling from $300K to seven figures in revenue annually. In this case study, we'll unpack how giving up control and ownership unlocked unprecedented growth, why empowering women became BookSmarts' biggest advantage, and how Jenny turned adversity into opportunity to build an unstoppable company.

She made olives fun — and the "Sharks" noticed. Nikki Seaman, the founder and CEO of Freestyle Snacks, landed a $300K deal on "Shark Tank" after turning her pandemic frustration over shuttered olive bars into a modern snack brand. In this episode, Nikki explains how she disrupted the "trusty but dusty" olive aisle with bright packaging, tantalizing flavors, and convenient, brine-free pouches. Bootstrapped and profitability-focused, Freestyle has grown strategically. The brand is now sold in over 5,000 stores, including Whole Foods, Target and Central Market, and is also carried on Delta flights. Nikki also shares how Freestyle recently expanded into pickles through a data-driven collaboration with Whole Foods, and how the brand's viral TikTok buzz, combined with a disciplined retail-first approach, has fueled growth with the perfect mix of insight, agility and joy. Show notes: 0:25: Nikki Seaman, Founder & CEO, Freestyle Snacks – Nikki chats about her experience on "Shark Tank" before she talks about the inspiration behind Freestyle Snacks and her desire to create a cleaner, more convenient way to enjoy marinated olives. She shares the brand's distribution footprint and expansion plans for 2026, and also how Freestyle secured its partnership with Delta. Nikki discusses the brand's social media presence, especially on TikTok, and how it has been key to building awareness and driving trial, aided by smart strategies on TikTok Shop. She emphasizes the brand's disciplined, bootstrap approach and why she has largely avoided institutional capital, instead relying on angel investors while focusing on profitability and efficient growth. Nikki also explains why rejecting early advice to stay online-only in favor of prioritizing retail presence has helped position Freestyle Snacks as a future household name for olives and pickles.

Andrea Samadi reflects on seven years hosting the Neuroscience Meets SEL podcast and celebrates reaching 500,000 downloads. She shares seven strategies—clarifying mission and vision, defining the audience, setting measurable goals, creating systems, staying mission-driven, building partnerships, and building momentum—and eight personal lessons learned, including the power of practice, research, adaptation, and praxis. This episode offers practical, science-backed guidance for anyone looking to apply neuroscience to improve productivity, well-being, and long-term results. On today's episode #377, we cover a break from our interviews, with a celebration episode!  ✔  7 Strategies that took our podcast from 0-500,000 downloads (including clarifying our mission, vision, defining our audience, setting measurable goals, creating systems, staying mission-driven, and building partnerships). ✔ 8 Personal Lessons learned over the past 7 years  (including the power of spaced repetition, research, adaptation and praxis).   Welcome back to SEASON 14 of The Neuroscience Meets Social and Emotional Learning Podcast, where we connect the science-based evidence behind social and emotional learning and emotional intelligence training for improved well-being, achievement, productivity and results—using what I saw as the missing link (since we weren't taught this when we were growing up in school), the application of practical neuroscience. I'm Andrea Samadi, and seven years ago, launched this podcast with a question I had never truly asked myself before: (and that is) If productivity and results matter to us—and they do now more than ever—how exactly are we using our brain to make them happen? Most of us were never taught how to apply neuroscience to improve productivity, results, or well-being. About a decade ago, I became fascinated by the mind-brain-results connection—and how science can be applied to our everyday lives. That's why I've made it my mission to bring you the world's top experts—so together, we can explore the intersection of science and social-emotional learning. We'll break down complex ideas and turn them into practical strategies we can use every day for predictable, science-backed results. For today's EP #377 we will take a break from our interview reviews, and look back over the past 7 years, and 14 Seasons, as we hit an important milestone in the podcasting world, our 500,000th download.  I remember when we hit the 300,000th marker, back in March 2023[i] we reflected back on the lessons learned in our first 4 years of hosting this podcast.  I remember looking at the next milestone of half a million, thinking it was such a distance from where we currently were.  It just took 3 years to get here, and now we have our eye on the next 500,000 downloads, which from here, looks like a lifetime away. As we reflect back over the past 7 years, many of our strategies remain the same as when we first began. Some strategies we did have to change. We reviewed some of these concepts on EP 279[ii] back in March 2023.  As we review what got us here, I think that these strategies can be applied to anything we are doing, with a long-term vision.   7 STRATEGIES WE USED TO HIT THE 500K DOWNLOAD MILESTONE 1. Know Your Mission (What You're Doing) The mission of the Neuroscience Meets Social and Emotional Learning podcast is to bridge the gap between neuroscience research and practical applications in education, business, and personal development. The podcast shares insights, strategies, and best practices to enhance learning, performance, and well-being by integrating neuroscience (which we like to make simple) and connecting it to social and emotional skills (SEL). Our goal is to provide valuable information listeners can apply in their work and personal lives to achieve peak performance and overall self-improvement, with a deeper understanding of how our brain works — something many of us were never taught in school. When the mission is clear, anything outside of this mission — applying neuroscience made simple to our daily lives — wasn't a match. This clarity helps maintain focus and ensures that all efforts align with creating tangible, positive outcomes. It's what keeps us consistent, translating complex scientific insights into actionable practices that lead to meaningful improvements in how we think, learn, and interact. From the very beginning, each guest spoke on a topic aligned with current neuroscience research. Each season was shaped by a framework connecting the six social and emotional learning competencies with foundational brain concepts — what I called Neuroscience 101, based on what I learned while studying with neuroscience researcher Mark Waldman.[iii] That's how our seasons were created. Make This Actionable: Do you have a clearly defined Mission of WHAT you do? 2. Know Your Vision with a Clear Why Your vision is why you do what you do. Once you know what you want to do, ask yourself — do you know why? This is probably the number one question I get asked when people hear that I host a podcast. They'll say, “Why? What made you decide to do this? Why did you launch a podcast?” It's a long story (I'll keep it short). When I purchased a website in January 2019, it came with a podcasting theme. The developer told me I could delete it, but I was already interviewing people for my work in schools — I just wasn't releasing that content publicly. A few months later, I wanted to present these ideas at a conference, but I was told I'd have to pay to present. That felt wrong — why pay to share the work I'd spent years developing? So, I decided instead to launch the podcast in June 2019. From the beginning, the podcast was meant to be a give-back — a way for anyone to learn these ideas without paying for access. To this day, it remains ad-free for that reason. My friend and long-time supporter, Greg Wolcott (Assistant Superintendent from Chicago, Illinois, Episode 7[iv]), reminded me how far the show has reached — now in over 190 countries — compared to the 50–100 people who might have attended that conference I wanted to present at. I truly believe that what's meant to happen will happen. As my dad would say in his Scottish accent: “What's for you, won't go by you.” So, with your vision, ask yourself: Do you know why you are doing what you do? I often go back to Part 6[v] of our Think and Grow Rich book study, where I dedicated an episode to my mentor, Bob Proctor. He always reminded us that our mission — whatever we want to achieve — becomes possible only once we first of all believe it's possible. He'd say: “What story do you want to tell? What scenes do you want to shoot? How do you want the movie to end? Be the director of your life.” Once you can clearly see something on the screen of your mind, (Your Mission) the next step is to bring that vision into reality. (Your Vision). That's exactly how this podcast began — with a clear mission and vision that led to action. Make This Actionable: Do you have a clearly written VISION of why you do what you do? 3. Clarify Your “What” and “Who” After defining your why and what you envision, identify: What exactly you're creating (e.g., “a neuroscience and education podcast”). Who it's for — your specific audience or community. I wanted our audience to reach outside of schools, into sports and the modern workplace. I remember a few people telling me to stick to one audience, and I just couldn't do it. I had a broader vision. Ask yourself: Who will benefit most from my message? What do they struggle with, and how can my work help?

Black women are leaving the workforce and it’s a warning sign for the entire economy. From media to tech, more than 300,000 Black women have left their jobs in the last year. What’s driving this exodus, and what does it reveal about the state of work in America? Bridget speaks with: Anna Gifty, economist and author of the fascinating new book The Double Tax: How Women of Color Are Overcharged, and Underpaid, and sociologist Marianne Cooper, Senior Research Scholar at Stanford University's VMware Women's Leadership Innovation Lab, about the economic pressures, pay gaps, and burnout pushing Black women out and why their exit should concern everyone.

How I Use Storytelling And AI To Build A Newsletter That Converts You know that moment when something in your business just clicks, like you've finally found your thing? That's exactly how I feel about my newsletter right now. What used to be a quick weekly email to promote my podcast has become one of my favorite (and most profitable) parts of my business. And trust me, as someone who never considered herself a “storyteller,” I did not see this coming. In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on how I completely reimagined my newsletter from a basic email to a storytelling-driven, data-backed strategy that brought in over $300,000 during my most recent launch. I share exactly how I structure it, how I use AI as a creative partner (without losing my voice), and why writing it myself reconnected me to the heart of my message. If you've ever wondered how to breathe life into your email list or build stronger connections with your audience, this episode will show you what's possible when you blend storytelling, strategy, and heart. HERE ARE THE 3 KEY TAKEAWAYS FROM THIS EPISODE: 1️⃣ Your Newsletter Can Be A Business Growth Engine – When I stopped treating my newsletter like a checklist task and started treating it like a relationship builder, everything changed. It became more personal, more valuable, and (surprisingly!) more profitable.  2️⃣ Storytelling Builds The Strongest Connection (And The Best Conversions) – Every newsletter I send starts with something real from my life that ties back to a business lesson. It's the bridge between what I teach and what my audience feels, and it's why people actually look forward to opening my emails. 3️⃣ AI Can Help You Find Clarity, But Connection Still Takes Time – I use ChatGPT as a creative partner to refine my stories and find the meaning behind them. But I still write every word with intention because automation can't replace authenticity.  RESOURCES MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE: Join my newsletter to get real strategy, zero fluff, and plenty of behind-the-scenes magic in your inbox every Tuesday! amyporterfield.com/newsletter  Catch up on Episode 8 with Jay Schwedelson: How to Write Subject Lines That People Actually Notice  Learn more about my Made to Scale Mastermind Check out Kit's Creator Network and Substack  MORE FROM ME Follow me on Instagram @amyporterfield SUBSCRIBE & REVIEW If you loved this episode, please take a moment to subscribe and leave a review on Apple Podcasts!

In this Meaningful People episode, financial advisor Moshe Alpert and community advocate Shmuly Hartstein unpack why many frum “middle‑class” families earning $200–300K still feel underwater—tuition that rivals a salary, yom tov and camp costs, seminary and simcha expectations, and the quiet creep of credit‑card debt. They debate income‑based tuition and communal funding versus personal responsibility, and share practical moves: make a real plan, build a budget, ask for a raise or start a side hustle, prioritize local schools in tzedakah, consider lower‑cost simchas or out‑of‑town living, and protect your family with insurance and a will. A candid, solutions‑oriented conversation about money, values, and making frum life sustainable.
