Today, I'm finally diving into a topic I've wanted to share with you for ages: MONEY.  If you've cut back or said goodbye to alcohol, you're already sitting on a gold mine. The average drinker spends $3,000 to $8,000 a year on alcohol alone – and now is the perfect time to leverage that raise and make your money work smarter. In this episode, I'm sharing the foundations of financial literacy for alcohol-free women – the habits, mindsets, and investing principles that can create lasting wealth. We're talking about investing, emergency funds, high-yield savings accounts, retirement, all of it.  I'll also take you behind the scenes of my own money journey. Obviously I am not a financial advisor, but there are principles that I live by that have made my life SO much easier. When you remove alcohol, you gain energy, peace, and the power to build a legacy. If you're looking to start your own purpose-driven income stream, coaching is one of the most scalable business models out there. Enrollment is open for the next round of the Empowered AF 5X Coach Certification Program.    IN THIS EPISODE: How ditching alcohol instantly gifts you $3,000–$8,000 a year (plus all the sneaky extra costs you're no longer burning away with every happy hour) Why even small, consistent investments made TODAY can snowball into 7-figures (and the massive wealth gap you create by starting now vs. putting it off) The investing gender gap, demystifying the stock market, and the one simple index fund strategy endorsed by history's most legendary investors The truth about hoarding cash, beating inflation, and why high-yield savings accounts are the modern woman's must-have Why investing in yourself yields the highest ROI and is the secret weapon of 88% of self-made millionaires   LINKS/RESOURCES MENTIONED In this book I mention Die With Zero: Getting All You Can From Your Money And Your Life by Bill Perkins and Dr. Benjamin Hardy, whose research I dive into in Episode 266.  If you know you're meant to help other people change their relationship with alcohol and achieve deep healing (along with their bigger dreams), apply for the Empowered AF 5X Coach Certification Program – and get 5x certified as a world class alcohol-free empowerment coach, mindset coach, success coach, NLP practitioner, and hypnosis practitioner.

I went VIRAL! I've been talking about entrepreneurship and the alcohol-free lifestyle on social media for years, but recently, something I said hit a deep chord: The universe hand-selected you to ditch alcohol because of how massive your purpose on this planet is.  Something in those words clicked for thousands of women — and honestly, I get it. Most women who feel called to this path are visionaries who know they're meant for something bigger. Before I quit drinking 7 years ago, I constantly battled writer's block, but the moment I took a break, it was like a creative floodgate burst open of ideas, inspiration, and energy.  In this episode, you'll discover how that decision unlocks life-changing gifts, from the obvious (like glowing health and renewed energy) to the unexpected (a deep well of confidence and razor-sharp intuition)! Gorgeous, you KNOW you were made for more. If going alcohol-free has awakened something powerful in you, it's because you're meant to guide others too. Join the next round of the Empowered AF 5X Coach Certification Program.    IN THIS EPISODE: Why I believe the universe hand selects certain women to reevaluate alcohol (because their purpose is colossal and world-changing!) The gifts that await alcohol-free living, from unstoppable motivation and deepened self-worth, to million-dollar ideas and unshakable intuition The truth about quitting forever and how to create new social circles and evolve old ones to fit your new life All the programs I offer to fit this new life, from Euphoric the Club to the Empowered AF 5X Coach Certification Program   LINKS/RESOURCES MENTIONED Join Euphoric the Club, the premier movement of successful alcohol-free women with access to all my alcohol-free programs, like Become Emboldened.

Ordinary coaches hang out on Zoom. Trailblazers? They get in the room. I'll never stop believing this: the most life-changing transformations, wildest epiphanies, and deepest connections don't happen online. They happen face-to-face. It's why my signature Empowered AF 5X Coach Certification Program  incorporates an in-person retreat. In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on how I brought together the most incredible alcohol-free leaders to this certification retreat in Palm Springs and helped them transform into 6-figure business owners. The 5X retreat is always an emotional weekend for me. It's when I finally get to hug everyone in person and create a magical, shared experience, complete with sound baths, meditation, spontaneous jumps into the pool with our clothes on, and our “Come as You'll Be” party where we embody our five-year future selves. Our retreats draw leaders from ALL over the world (UK, Germany, South Africa, even Bali!) and this special weekend becomes the anchor that fuels their mindset and soul-level conviction long after they fly home. If you want to be part of this special sisterhood and step into your own transformation, jump into the next round of the certification program. I hope to meet you at the next retreat in Dana Point.    IN THIS EPISODE: Why in-person retreats (not endless Zoom calls!) — are what I SWEAR by for transformational breakthroughs and launching 6-figure coaching businesses Behind the scenes at these retreats: exclusive pool parties, soul-anchoring rituals like the “Come As You'll Be” party, and the infamous red bracelet manifestation ritual Why an epic vision (not “safe” baby steps!) is essential if you want to become a sought-after thought leader Why alcohol-free living is only going to get bigger as time goes on, with 50% of Americans now saying they want to drink less or not at all   LINKS/RESOURCES MENTIONED If you know you're meant to help other people change their relationship with alcohol and achieve deep healing (along with their bigger dreams), apply for the Empowered AF 5X Coach Certification Program – and get 5x certified as a world class alcohol-free coach, mindset coach, success coach, NLP practitioner, and hypnosis practitioner.

The High Performance Incentive Program (HPIP) allows qualifying businesses to earn state income tax credits based on their expenditures on employee training and education and on qualifying capital investments. We couldn't report how much HPIP credit businesses earned and used in recent years because of reliability issues with KDOR's HPIP data. We identified inconsistencies in the data that KDOR officials told us they were trying to resolve.The Kansas Affordable Housing Tax Credit (KAHTC) is a state income tax credit that matches the federal low-income housing tax credit. Both credits help subsidize the creation of affordable rental housing. The Kansas Housing Resources Corporation (KHRC) administers both credits. Since 2023, when the KAHTC was first allowed, KHRC has awarded rental housing development projects about $73 million in KAHTC credits. It may award an additional $34 million in tax credits by the time the KAHTC ends in 2028. At the time of our audit, no taxpayers had used the KAHTC to reduce their income tax liabilities. However, they will likely begin doing so soon. Over the next approximately 15 years, taxpayers' use of KAHTC credit awards may result in the state forgoing about $1 billion in income tax revenues.

Ever felt the sting of an identity shift, like when a lifelong pursuit suddenly ends, leaving you wondering what's next? For Anne Skriba, basketball was everything. But when she quit athletics for a “secure” sales job, the loss of structure, routine, and identity careened her into a harmful relationship with alcohol.  I've heard this story so many times: when we stop doing the thing we love, the thing that once defined us, we start to lose pieces of ourselves. Without that passion to anchor you, it's easy to drift into numbing habits. Fast forward to today, Anne is the founder of Clean Play Coaching, host of the Clean Play Podcast, and a 5X Certified Coach. Before recording this interview, Anne celebrated ONE THOUSAND DAYS alcohol-free. To say this shift has changed her life is an understatement. In this episode, Anne talks about transforming that former athletic identity into a winning mindset and the pivotal moment that shifted her relationship with alcohol that will blow your mind. If you want to help others change their lives too, apply for the Empowered AF 5X Coach Certification Program by August 31 to get $1,000 off your tuition.   IN THIS EPISODE: Anne's raw journey from college athlete and coach, and how the void left by sports led to a complicated relationship with alcohol Why so many former athletes (and ambitious strivers) lose themselves after “retiring” from their greatest passion, and how reclaiming a winning mindset is possible at any age Anne's therapist's powerful question that sparked her thousand-day (and counting) alcohol-free lifestyle and a complete personal reinvention Why opting out of alcohol is the ultimate act of courage and athletic-level grit, and how Anne empowers marginalized and underrepresented communities to join the movement   LINKS/RESOURCES MENTIONED Check out the Clean Play Podcast, visit Anne's website, check out her free Inner Mamba guide, her free scouting report, and the book she mentions in this episode, Quit Like a Woman by Holly Whitaker.
