We are in a powerful energetic window right now with the Winter Solstice, a New Moon, and a moment of deep reflection and reset. In this Soul Elevation livestream, I explore the energetic reality of people pleasing, boundaries, and the unseen energy exchanges that shape our health, emotions, and life satisfaction. I share personal experiences from my work as a podcast host and former corporate professional to illustrate how over-giving without reciprocity leads to depletion, imbalance, and eventually burnout. This conversation is about understanding your worth as an energetic being and learning how to honor yourself without guilt. We also reflect on the seasonal energy of the Winter Solstice, a natural time of rest, restoration, and inner recalibration. If you have been feeling tired, unmotivated, or in a quiet void, this is not something to fix. It is something to honor. In this episode, you will explore: • Why people pleasing creates energetic imbalance • How energy exchange mirrors a balance sheet • The connection between boundaries and vitality • Recognizing energetic siphoning in relationships and work • How to protect your energy without conflict or guilt • Using the New Moon and Solstice window for intentional reset This is not about keeping score or tit for tat relationships. It is about honoring your energy, recognizing reciprocity, and stepping into self respect as a spiritual practice.

How to Build a Business You Can Actually Sell with Saul Cohen Most business owners say the same thing: "I want to grow as big as I can." But when you press them on what they really want—time freedom, a great income, flexibility with their family—they're actually describing a lifestyle business, not a high-growth scale-up destined for a huge exit. In this episode of Profit Answer Man, Rocky Lalvani talks with Saul Cohen, an accountant and advisor who helps ambitious entrepreneurs grow through acquisition and prepare for a successful exit. Together, they unpack the difference between chasing revenue and deliberately building assets and wealth inside your business. In This Episode, You'll Learn: Lifestyle Business vs Scale-Up: What Are You Really Building? Saul explains the critical fork in the road most owners never consciously choose. A lifestyle business is built to deliver strong income and flexibility now; a scale-up is built to reinvest profits into assets for a bigger exit later. The decisions, trade-offs, and timelines are totally different. Why Hustle Isn't a Strategy—and Maturity Wins. Saul shares the story of his first business, launched in his early twenties, and how a competitor with more experience and maturity quietly built a far more valuable company. The lesson? Execution, focus, and intention beat hustle and blind optimism every time. How Wealth Is Really Built: Assets and the Balance Sheet. Rocky reminds us that profit is only part of the story. Real wealth shows up on the balance sheet—in assets, not just income. The problem? Most owners never read their balance sheet as a series and have no idea whether they're actually building wealth or just spinning their wheels. Where Acquirers Find Hidden Profit After the Sale. When a "mediocre" business is sold, a new owner often finds profit quickly—not because they're smarter, but because they're less emotionally attached and more objective. Saul explains how strategic add-on acquisitions (like buying a supplier or complementary service) can boost margins, cross-sell opportunities, and overall business value. The Investor Mindset: Working On the Business, Not Just In It. Both Rocky and Saul emphasize the need to step out of firefighting mode, take time away from the office, and think like an investor. When you step back and ask, "What are my real opportunities and threats? Where's the biggest payoff for my time and capital?" the path to better cash flow and a stronger exit becomes much clearer. Key Takeaways: Most owners are accidentally building lifestyle businesses while pretending they're building scale-ups. Wealth is created by assets, not just hustle or revenue. Gross margin and business model clarity matter far more than top-line bragging rights. Your second business will often scale faster—if you integrate the lessons from your first. Taking time out to think like an investor is one of the highest-ROI activities you can do. Bio: Saul Cohen is a chartered accountant and founder of SC Digital Advisory, a boutique firm helping business owners grow through acquisition, optimize profit, and prepare for successful exits. With more than 20 years in finance and entrepreneurship, Saul blends hands-on operational insight with deep financial acumen to help owners turn complex challenges into scalable systems. He's advised seven- and eight-figure founders across sectors on strategy, M&A, and value creation. Links: https://www.scdigitaladvisory.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/saulcohenuk Conclusion: You don't need to copy the tech unicorns or chase a nine-figure exit to win. You just need to be honest about the kind of business—and life—you actually want, then align your decisions with that reality. For some, that's a highly profitable lifestyle business with strong margins, great clients, and plenty of free time. For others, it's a focused scale-up strategy, reinvesting profits to build assets and position for a major exit. Either way, the path runs through the same disciplines: knowing your numbers, understanding your business model, building real assets, and learning to think like an investor, not just an operator. If you're ready to turn your business into a true wealth-building engine—not just a stressful job with a logo—this episode with Saul Cohen is a powerful place to start. #ProfitAnswerMan #ProfitFirst #BusinessExit #LifestyleBusiness #ScaleUp #BusinessValuation #CashFlow #WealthBuilding #EntrepreneurMindset #FractionalCFO #FinancialClarity Watch the full episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@profitanswerman Sign up to be notified when the next cohort of the Profit First Experience Course is available!

When Nature Has a Number on the Balance SheetHow the financial world is starting to recognize the value of ecosystems servicesIn this episode of the Healthy Seas Podcast, we sit down with Dr. Ralph Chami — financial economist, former Assistant Director at the International Monetary Fund, and Co-Founder of Blue Green Future — to explore one of the most powerful shifts underway: integrating the value of nature's services into economic and financial systems.From whales and seagrass to elephants and bison, Ralph's work centers around measuring the economic contributions of living ecosystems and designing financial tools that recognize their role in climate regulation, biodiversity support, and human wellbeing. The goal? To accelerate funding for restoration and protection by making nature visible on the balance sheet.A Whale, a Shift, a New VisionThe conversation begins with a deeply personal story: a moment in the Sea of Cortez that transformed Ralph's life and career. From that encounter with a blue whale came a new path, one that brought together climate science, conservation, and high-level economics. Since then, Ralph has helped governments and organizations understand how to value nature's services — not to commodify ecosystems, but to make the case for investing in their preservation and restoration.In the episode, you'll hear about:Why whales can be worth millions over their lifetime through carbon storageHow forward contracts are being used to fund environmental restorationWhat makes a nature-based project “investable”Why markets are slow to respond — and what could unlock faster changeThe role of communities in managing and benefiting from ecosystem servicesThe risks of leaving nature outside the financial system, and how to avoid themWhen Oceans Meet EconomicsFor companies, investors, and governments trying to build credible climate and biodiversity strategies, this episode offers a new lens. As Ralph puts it, valuing nature's services isn't about replacing conservation with markets — it's about finally recognizing the systems we depend on, and funding their protection before it's too late.It's a bold reframe of where value lies, and how finance can be part of the solution.If you enjoyed this episode, please be sure to subscribe, rate and review it!

Episode Overview In this episode, Scott Landis and Jeff Jacob dive deep into a powerful yet often misunderstood concept in business valuation—recasting EBITDA. Using a live client example, Jeff explains how a company's valuation jumped from under $1M to over $3M simply by cleaning up the books, recasting discretionary expenses, and improving operational efficiency. The conversation blends humor, practical insight, and step-by-step financial strategy that any founder can follow to increase the market value of their company—without working more hours. Key Takeaways Recasting EBITDA can dramatically change how your business is valued. Many business owners understate profitability on taxes, which hurts their valuation. Cleaning up your books and removing “owner perks” (cars, travel, etc.) paints a truer—and higher—financial picture. Each industry has its own valuation multiplier based on demand, operations, and risk. The Business Health Diagnostic (BHD) helps founders uncover value leaks and position for scalable, sellable growth.

Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization—a key measure of a company's operational profit. Q: What is “recasting EBITDA”? It's the process of adjusting your financials to remove personal or non-recurring expenses, showing a truer picture of the company's profitability for potential buyers. Q: Why does recasting matter? Because it can triple your business's value by revealing the profit a new owner would actually experience. Q: How can I get a Business Health Diagnostic (BHD)? Start by taking the TriMetric Quiz. From there, Jeff and the BFA team can provide a BHD Lite or full Business Health Diagnostic. Q: What documents do I need for a BHD Lite? Just last year's Profit & Loss Statement and Balance Sheet.

Episode OverviewIn this wide-ranging conversation, legendary investor Bill Nygren discusses how value investing has evolved since the 1980s—and why the traditional valuation metrics many investors still rely on no longer adequately measure a company's true worth. Nygren explains how intangibles like brand and customer acquisition costs have transformed the investing landscape, why accounting conservatism can obscure opportunity, and what he learned from Warren Buffett's purchase of Coca-Cola decades ago.This episode is a masterclass on adapting a classic investment philosophy for the modern age—combining rigorous analysis with intellectual flexibility.Key Topics CoveredThe evolution of value investing: Why old accounting methods fail to capture the true worth of modern businesses built on brands and technology.The Coca-Cola revelation: How Buffett's investment reshaped Nygren's definition of value.Why financials are misunderstood: Why Nygren sees opportunity in financials despite investor skepticism.The hidden risk in the S&P 500: What investors are overlooking about today's index concentration.Airbnb, Merck, and Comcast: How to analyze quality businesses that the market misunderstands.AI and investing: Why Nygren believes the biggest winners from AI won't be chipmakers—but companies that use AI better.Position sizing and discipline: How Nygren thinks about portfolio concentration and risk management.Featured Offer from Boyar ResearchBefore you dive back into the markets, make sure you take advantage of our limited-time 50% pre-order discount on The Forgotten Forty 2026 — Boyar Research's flagship annual report featuring 40 catalyst-driven stock ideas for the year ahead.Every company included has been deeply analyzed in a full-length Boyar Research report — the same research trusted by some of the world's leading hedge funds, family offices, and institutional investors.Learn more or pre-order here: boyarresearch.com/2026Offer expires December 15.Episode Highlights“Conservatism in accounting often comes at the expense of accuracy.”“Today's value investor needs to think harder about intangibles.”“Recommending the S&P 500 as a core holding may no longer be prudent—it's become a concentrated tech bet.”“Sometimes what you learn that can't go in the spreadsheet ends up being the most valuable.”Featured CompaniesCoca-Cola, Comcast, Charter Communications, Airbnb, Merck, Bank of America, Citigroup, Capital One, First Citizens, and NVIDIA.About Bill NygrenBill Nygren is one of the most respected voices in value investing.

Send us a textIn this week's episode, we get into the Fed's 25 basis point rate cut, Powell's chaotic press conference before diving into Meta's creative data center financing which is a lesson on project financing and lease accounting, and finally the growing blur between public and private credit. The Fed's October meeting delivered the expected 25 bps cut but Powell's tone afterward left markets rattled. While announcing a pause in quantitative tightening, he hinted that December isn't a done deal, sparking confusion and volatility. Jen breaks down the mechanics behind QT, the Fed's balance sheet strategy, and why even subtle changes in how they handle T-bill reinvestments could ripple across the yield curve.Then we shift to earnings season and Meta's fascinating case study in project finance. Their $30 billion Hyperion data center project with Blue Owl blends corporate finance, lease accounting, and private credit innovation, raising questions about off-balance-sheet leverage, credit spreads, and who really wins in these structures. We wrap with thoughts on how every firm on Wall Street is morphing into everything else—private credit arms at hedge funds, PE firms doing lending, and why that might both dilute and amplify systemic risk. All that, plus Halloween costumes, pumpkin parades, and the realities of parenting in chaos. For 20% off Deleteme, use the code TWSS or click the link HERE!

Liz Ann Sonders and Kathy Jones discuss this week's Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting and the latest interest rate cut. They also analyze some of the details of what is driving the Fed's decisions in light of the government shutdown.Next, Kathy Jones is joined by David Beckworth. Kathy and David discuss the complexities of the Federal Reserve's balance sheet, the broader implications of monetary policy, and the emerging landscape of stablecoins and central bank digital currencies (CBDCs). They discuss the challenges the Fed faces in managing its balance sheet, the potential impact of stablecoins on the financial system, and what these developments mean for investors. David outlines three potential steps the Fed could take to downsize the balance sheet: asset swaps, managing the Treasury General Account (TGA), and improving ceiling facilities.

Lawrence Nelson is with the majority of investors in believing a rate cut is coming today. He's looking ahead on the Fed's calendar and will be listening to what the central bank's thinking might be for the December meeting. Lawrence weighs in on the elevated inflation levels above their target, but notes the "tricky spot" for the Fed as labor markets cool. In terms of dissent among the Fed's decision, Lawrence believes newly appointed Stephen Miran will be the biggest proponent for a larger rate cut while Jeff Schmidt could maintain the current rate and oppose further cutting. Lawrence adds thoughts on the Fed's balance sheet plus the "tricky path ahead" for outgoing Fed Chair Jerome Powell and his fellow decisionmakers heading into 2026.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.
