Making more money doesn't automatically mean keeping more. Maybe there's no consistent savings. Tax time feels like a scramble. Paying yourself is hit or miss. And the pressure to “just make more” is getting louder. If you're bringing in money but you're not seeing it stack up the way you thought you would, this episode is for you. In this episode of The Money Coach School Podcast, I'm walking you through the three levels of feminine financial freedom and showing you where most coaches silently leak money…even while growing their income. Listen in to learn the exact money habits that shift you from reactive hustle into sustainable overflow. You'll walk away knowing what level you're in now, what your next money move is, and how to embody the identity of a woman who doesn't just make money - she keeps it, multiplies it, and builds unshakable financial power. If you're ready to stop treating every dollar like it's temporary—and start building a financial foundation that holds, grows, and supports your freedom—this episode is for you. In this episode, I talk about: The 3 levels of feminine financial freedom - and how to know which one you're in right now. Why earning more won't build wealth if you're still operating from hustle habits. The #1 pivot that puts you in control of your money and expands your ability to retain more. What really happens at the $100K and $300K levels that no one prepares you for. ~~ For full show notes, transcript, and to explore The Secret Energy of Money® Mastermind, click here: www.themoneycoachschoolpodcast.com/97
In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on exactly how we've generated over nine figures in high-ticket coaching sales by getting clients to invest $300K, $500K, even $800K with us over the course of our relationship. I'll break down the lifetime value (LTV) strategy that changed everything for my business and show you why charging premium prices actually gets you BETTER clients who show up more committed and get better results. What You'll Learn: The #1 metric that determines how much you can spend to acquire new clients Why my $100/session hypnotherapist was leaving $ on the table (and how you might be too) The exact 3-tier ascension model we use: $5K-15K front-end → $20K-50K mastermind → $60K-100K elite program How to overcome the fear of hearing "no" when charging premium prices Why our mastermind retention is 14-15 months vs. industry average of 4 months Important Disclaimers: Results mentioned are not typical and individual results will vary Past performance does not guarantee future results This content is for educational purposes only and not financial advice Want to see the visual breakdown?

The Elephant In The Room Property Podcast | Inside Australian Real Estate
If you’re navigating retirement planning in Australia, this episode is a must-listen. Financial adviser James Wrigley joins The Elephant in the Room to unpack the strategies that high-income earners, Gen X professionals, and aspiring retirees can use to build a more secure financial future, without falling into the usual traps. From maximising tax returns through superannuation to understanding why property may not be the most reliable retirement asset, James breaks down complex concepts into actionable steps. You’ll learn how super could grow from $300K to $2M, when and how to use catch-up contributions, and why liquidity and access might be more important than you think. This episode challenges the idea that you need to be “a property person” or “a shares person” and instead offers a mindset shift: invest based on outcomes, not identity. Whether you’re in your 40s and just starting to take your future seriously, or you’re closing in on retirement, this conversation will change the way you think about your money.

In this episode, I share a wild (and very real) lesson on tortious interference - what it means, how I got sued for it, and what every landlord should understand when it comes to transferring leases. From NFL players selling overpriced smoothie shops to doctors trying their hand at burger franchises, I've seen my share of risky lease assignments - and learned to trust my instincts.I walk through two real-life examples where I blocked lease transfers, faced legal threats, and ultimately protected my shopping centers. I also explain how I secured personal guarantees, maintained leverage, and stayed paid when things went sideways. For any landlord who's ever second-guessed their judgment or felt pressured into approving a shaky deal, this episode is essential listening.Key Insights:✔️ Tortious interference claims can surface - even when protecting the asset✔️ Lease assignment red flags are worth paying attention to✔️ Personal guarantees offer critical protection from unqualified tenants✔️ Tenants often return admitting they should have followed advice✔️ Backup tenants and strong lease terms can protect the landlord's position✔️ Sometimes, saying “no” is the most responsible thing a landlord can do

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1085: Today we're diving into a high-stakes Senate budget bill that could end EV credits early, Hyundai's record-breaking U.S. sales run, and Cloudflare's bold move to make AI bots pay to crawl. Show Notes with links:The Senate passed a budget bill by a razor-thin 51-50 vote, with VP JD Vance breaking the tie. The bill, which moves to the House next, packs major implications for automakers and dealers alike.As we covered yesterday, the current version would kill EV tax credits by Sept. 30, 2025.CAFE penalties for fuel economy non-compliance would be eliminated, gutting enforcement.Car loan interest (up to $10,000/year) could be deducted for certain U.S.-built vehicle purchases from 2025-2028.An earlier AI regulation ban, which might've restricted state autonomous vehicle laws, was cut from the final bill.Electrification Coalition: Ending EV credits “would cede control over the future of transportation to China.”Hyundai just posted its best-ever U.S. sales performance in the first half of 2025, powered by strong EV momentum and a major new plant in Georgia. The automaker says this is only the beginning.Hyundai sold 439,280 vehicles in H1 2025, a 10% YoY increase—the most since its 1986 U.S. debut.Q2 and June also set new records with 235K+ (+10%) and 70K (+3%) vehicles sold, respectively.The IONIQ 5 remains a top EV performer with 19,092 units sold YTD; IONIQ 9 logged 1,013 units since May.The new Metaplant in Georgia can build 300K vehicles/year—expandable to 500K—with both IONIQ 5 and IONIQ 9 rolling off the line.With leases as low as $179/month and free home chargers on offer, Hyundai is “building momentum with every mile,” said North America CEO Randy Parker.Cloudflare is positioning to be the premier AI gatekeeper by blocking AI bots by default for new websites and launching a paywall-style marketplace for AI crawlers.New sites on Cloudflare will automatically block AI bots unless given explicit permission.Their new “Pay per Crawl” lets publishers charge bots for different kinds of data use.Condé Nast, TIME, and The Atlantic are on board after seeing steep traffic drops from AI-generated answers.OpenAI bots reportedly scrape 1,700 times per referral, while Anthropic scrapes 73,000 to one. Google is only 14 per referral“This could split the internet,” one analyst said, noting the potential divide between premium and freely scraped content.Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/
