"You combine the gender wage gap with the work breaks, what you get is a retirement account that has less money in it at the point of retirement. And then we outlive men.” - Jean ChatzkyWhat if the way you feel about money is more powerful than what you actually know about it? Managing money is not about being perfect — but just about building the right habits, over and over again. In this episode of Transformative Leadership Conversations, I'm joined by Jean Chatzky — financial journalist, bestselling author, and CEO of HerMoney. Jean has spent her career helping people, especially women, take control of their money, their mindset, and their future. We dive deep into how your personal money story shapes your confidence, your career moves, and even your leadership style — and why good money management has way more to do with habits than with being "perfect" at finance.You'll hear us discuss:Building Habits, Not Perfection: Why getting better with money isn't about knowing everything — it's about doing the small smart things over and over again.Why Women Need a Different Space: How Jean created HerMoney as a judgement-free zone where women can learn, talk, and build financial strength together.The Hidden Cost of the Wage Gap: How career breaks, lower salaries, and longer lifespans are stacking the odds against women — and what we can do about it.Money Stories: Why the way you watched your parents handle money matters more than what they ever taught you out loud.Making the Shift from Money to Value: How thinking about your value — not just your salary — can totally change how you negotiate and lead.Letting Go of Perfect: Why waiting until you're 100% sure can hold you back — and why “good enough” is often exactly what you need to move forward.Behavioural Tricks That Work: How little psychology hacks like automation and visualisation can make saving, investing, and budgeting easier without even thinking about it.Keeping Your Receipts (Literally and Figuratively): Why you should start a “value file” today — and how it can make all the difference when you're asking for a raise or a promotion.Knowing When to Get Help: Why even Jean has a financial advisor — and why getting help is a smart leadership move, not a sign you're failing.Resources:Jean Chatzky on Her Money (Web) | Money Personality Type Test | LinkedInWinnie da Silva on LinkedIn | On the Web | Substack | Email - winnie@winnifred.org

Financial accountability is more than tracking money—it is the compass that keeps our business heading toward the right destination. Evidently, without clear direction, we risk getting lost in daily chaos. However, when we embrace responsibility for our numbers, we take control of our journey.Planning With PurposeFirstly, running a business without financial accountability is like setting off on a road trip without a map. Secondly, although we may eventually arrive somewhere, it likely won't be where we intended to go. Consequently, we must define our goals, plan our route, and prepare for the unexpected.Moreover, our financial story plan becomes our guide. Besides being our route map, it keeps us honest and focused. Furthermore, just like a personal trainer tracks our fitness, our plan helps track profit targets, expenses, and resources. Hence, it must stay visible, current, and part of our weekly and monthly routines.Reviewing and Reflecting RegularlyUndoubtedly, we must check our dashboard—our digital accounting system—frequently. Accordingly, we can monitor whether sales match forecasts, expenses stay within limits, and profits align with projections. Additionally, when things go off course, we do not panic. Instead, we reroute, reflect, and readjust.Certainly, unexpected events will happen. Nevertheless, strong financial accountability helps us respond with clarity. Specifically, reviewing metrics like cashflow weekly, or even daily, gives us real-time control.Building Habits for Long-Term SuccessEmphatically, our financial plan is not a one-off task. Instead, it lives and breathes with our business. Previously missed goals become future milestones. Additionally, celebrating small wins keeps motivation high. Lastly, asking reflective questions helps identify blind spots and improve decisions.Keep Moving ForwardAltogether, financial accountability gives us power, direction, and peace of mind. It may not guarantee a smooth ride, but it ensures we keep moving toward our goals. Therefore, let's stop guessing and start owning our path.If this episode sparked new thoughts or gave you something to act on, then keep the momentum going. Listen to the I Hate Numbers podcast for more practical insights, guidance, and tools to help you take charge of your finances. Let's keep building smarter, stronger businesses—together.

Elaina Wang, a health coach and former addict, shares her radical journey of transformation. Once trapped in childhood obesity and a 15-year methamphetamine addiction, Elaina has emerged as a living testament to resilience, intentionality, and self-governance. Her story is one of reclaiming bodily autonomy—a core principle for those who reject the systems that seek to control our lives, whether through addiction, consumerism, or coercion. We dive deep into the realities of addiction and recovery, particularly the devastating effects of meth and fentanyl-laced substances. Elaina speaks candidly about the spiritual and psychological battle of addiction, the way it severs personal freedom, and the importance of rebuilding trust with oneself and others. But true liberation isn't just about breaking free from addiction—it's about restoring the body as a temple and aligning daily choices with God's design for health and wholeness. Elaina shares how real food, self-discipline, and holistic health practices played a pivotal role in her healing. She advocates for a low-carb, ketogenic diet, exposing the lies of corporate food industries and emphasizing the power of self-sufficiency in nutrition. Key Takeaways Addiction and Sovereignty – Addiction is a form of enslavement. Elaina's journey highlights the power of reclaiming control over the body and mind. ‘Temple' Restoration – Health is a spiritual act. What we consume—physically, mentally, and spiritually—either strengthens or weakens us. Building Habits for Freedom – Discipline creates freedom. Elaina shares how habit stacking leads to lasting change, making it easier to sustain a life of health, purpose, and independence. Elaina also opens up about managing her Keto Wang Facebook page, navigating censorship, online backlash, and digital boundaries in a world that often suppresses dissenting voices. At its core, Elaina's story is a call to radical ownership—of health, of choices, and of life itself. If you believe that true freedom starts with taking responsibility for yourself, this episode is for you.

Turning a side hustle into a full-fledged day job is an ambition many share, but the journey is anything but straightforward. In this season of "Building Better Habits," hosts Rob Broadhead and Michael Meloche delve into the strategies, challenges, and mindset shifts required to transition a side hustle to a day job successfully. Below is a summary of their conversation, enriched with practical advice for aspiring entrepreneurs. The Mindset Shift: Taking Your Side Hustle to a Day Job One of the central themes in the episode is the distinction between treating a side hustle as a hobby versus a serious business endeavor. Side hustles often start as passion projects or supplemental income sources. However, as Rob highlights, to transition your side hustle to a day job, you must shift your mindset from “icing on the cake” to “building a foundation.” This involves seeing your side hustle not just as a way to earn extra money but as a business that demands focus, consistency, and strategic planning. Michael emphasizes the importance of defining success early on. Whether your goal is creative satisfaction, financial freedom, or professional growth, clarity around your “why” will guide your decisions and ensure you stay aligned with your vision as you turn your side hustle into a day job. Why Focus Is Key When Turning a Side Hustle to a Day Job A recurring challenge for side hustlers is the temptation to take on every opportunity that comes their way. Michael shares his own experience of rebranding his business from a broad consulting service to a niche company focused on quality assurance and test-driven development. This shift allowed him to streamline his offerings, making his brand clearer to clients and his work more enjoyable. Both hosts stress the value of niching down. Instead of trying to serve everyone, focus on a specific audience or service. For example, if you're a web developer, decide whether you want to specialize in creating websites for photographers, startups, or e-commerce businesses. By narrowing your focus, you can position yourself as an expert in your field, a crucial step in transitioning your side hustle to a day job. Avoiding Common Pitfalls in Growing Your Side Hustle to a Day Job Rob discusses the dangers of saying “yes” to projects or tasks that don't align with your brand or goals. These detours can dilute your identity and consume valuable resources, leaving you overwhelmed and disconnected from your original vision. He advises entrepreneurs to evaluate every new opportunity through the lens of their long-term goals. If a project doesn't align with your core mission, it's okay to say no—or, better yet, refer it to someone else in your network. This protects your brand and fosters partnerships that can lead to mutual growth. Building Habits to Transition Your Side Hustle to a Day Job As your side hustle grows, the need for delegation becomes inevitable. Rob encourages listeners to document repetitive tasks and think about how they might eventually hand these off to a team member or contractor. This step is crucial for scaling your business without becoming overwhelmed. Michael shares an example of using AI tools to simplify complex tasks like code reviews and testing. While not a substitute for expertise, these tools can save time and allow you to focus on higher-value activities. The lesson is to leverage technology and systems to optimize your workflow and free up your time for strategic decision-making. Resources for Making Your Side Hustle a Successful Day Job Rob and Michael recommend several resources for those looking to take their side hustle to the next level: Books: The 4-Hour Workweek by Tim Ferriss offers actionable advice on delegation and automation. Podcasts and Talks: Gary Vaynerchuk's content and TED Talks provide inspiration and insights into entrepreneurship. Networking: Join local business communities, like the Chamber of Commerce, to learn from others who've walked the same path. The Habit Challenge: Aligning Actions with Vision The hosts propose a habit-forming exercise to help entrepreneurs stay focused. For seven days, identify one activity that doesn't align with your business vision. Spend five minutes brainstorming how you could outsource or eliminate it. This practice builds awareness and sets the stage for long-term growth by encouraging you to focus on tasks that truly matter.

In a recent episode of the Building Better Habits podcast, hosts Rob Broadhead and Michael Meloche tackled the important topic of managing anxiety and stress, especially in high-pressure work environments. This episode explores practical strategies for identifying, understanding, and managing anxiety and stress through effective habit-building. Here's a summary of their insightful discussion. Understanding Anxiety and Stress The episode begins by distinguishing between anxiety and stress. While stress is often tied to external pressures like deadlines and performance goals, anxiety is more internal, stemming from uncertainty, fear of the unknown, or persistent worry. Michael explains that anxiety can linger long after a stressful event, manifesting as repetitive thoughts and a heightened sense of vulnerability. For developers and professionals, managing anxiety and stress is crucial. Common triggers include unstable software systems, tight deadlines, or the fear of failure in high-stakes situations like healthcare or public service. Rob emphasizes that while stress can sometimes be motivational, unchecked anxiety drains productivity and can lead to burnout. Building Habits for Managing Anxiety and Stress Both hosts agree that developing habits is key to effectively managing anxiety and stress. Michael shares how he has learned to identify his anxiety triggers and adopt techniques to work through them. One of his strategies is comparing current challenges to past situations, asking himself whether today's circumstances are genuinely different or more threatening. This perspective helps to reduce feelings of overwhelm. Rob suggests daily gratitude journaling as a powerful habit for managing anxiety and stress. Writing down three things you're grateful for each morning can shift your mindset and help you focus on positives rather than uncertainties. Whether it's appreciating a hot cup of coffee, a supportive colleague, or a recent accomplishment, this practice fosters resilience and clarity. Practical Techniques for Managing Anxiety and Stress Michael and Rob also share actionable tips for addressing anxiety and stress: Brain Dumps: Writing down repetitive thoughts or “what-ifs” can provide clarity and relief. Once on paper, those worries become more manageable. Engaging Activities: Reading, listening to music, or diving into an audiobook can help redirect focus and break the cycle of anxious thoughts. Michael advises against passive distractions like TV, which often allow the mind to wander. Reframing the Situation: Asking questions like, “What's the worst that could happen?” or “Has anything truly changed?” can help reframe anxiety and focus on actionable solutions. Grounding in Basics: When overwhelmed, it helps to focus on essential needs—food, shelter, and safety—to remind yourself that you are okay. Seeking Support for Managing Anxiety and Stress Both hosts stress the importance of seeking help when necessary. This might involve talking to friends or family, exploring self-help books, or consulting with a professional therapist. Rob reminds listeners that managing anxiety and stress isn't a sign of weakness but a common struggle shared by many. Michael highlights the value of addressing physiological aspects of anxiety with the help of healthcare professionals. Sometimes, a small medical intervention under the guidance of a doctor can make a significant difference. The Weekly Challenge: Build Gratitude into Your Day To help listeners take actionable steps, Rob concludes the episode with a challenge: Start each morning by listing three things you're grateful for. This habit not only helps in managing anxiety and stress but also fosters a mindset of gratitude and positivity. Over time, it builds resilience and allows you to tackle challenges with a clearer head. Final Thoughts on Managing Anxiety and Stress The Building Better Habits podcast reminds us that while anxiety and stress are inevitable, they are also manageable. Through mindfulness, habit-building, and community support, we can turn anxiety into an opportunity for growth. As Michael eloquently states, “There's always sunshine on the horizon.” By embracing practical habits and reframing challenges, you can take control of your well-being and productivity.

Motivation is a great spark, but it's not enough to keep the fire going. Habits, not bursts of energy, are what drive long-term success. When you rely on motivation, you might feel stuck on the days it doesn't show up. Building habits creates a structure that works no matter how you're feeling. Habits turn decisions into automatic actions, freeing up mental energy and making it easier to stay on track.

I'll share some of the key habits that have helped me fuel my fire and keep moving toward my goals with intention.Key Takeaways:The Power of Intention: I've learned that staying on fire for my dreams isn't about chance—it's about building intentional habits that keep me energized and moving forward. It's not always easy, but with the right mindset, I've found it's the key to lasting momentum.The EMIT Principle: In my journey, I discovered the EMIT Principle: Education × Motivation × Inspiration = Transformation.

In the latest Building Better Developers podcast season, Rob Broadhead and Michael Meloche dive deep into the fascinating world of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and its impact on developers' habits. In this episode, the focus isn't just on using AI but on leveraging it to enhance productivity, creativity, and problem-solving capabilities. The AI Revolution: Why Developers Should Care AI is no longer a futuristic concept—it's an integral part of the developer's toolbox. Tools like ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot, and IntelliJ IDEA's AI-powered suggestions transform workflows from generating boilerplate code to aiding testing and planning. As Rob Broadhead pointed out, AI's potential extends far beyond novelty. It's about using AI to “do better what you are already doing” rather than treating it as a crutch. AI-driven tools simplify repetitive tasks, allowing developers to focus on higher-value activities. Whether generating test cases, summarizing meetings, or suggesting optimal solutions for coding challenges, AI helps reduce cognitive load and time spent on mundane tasks. Practical Uses of AI in Development Code Generation and Optimization: AI tools like ChatGPT, OpenAI Whisper, Amazon's AI can generate code snippets based on developer input, saving developers significant time writing boilerplate code. These tools excel at providing a starting point, especially when developers are working on stubs or need inspiration for how to approach a particular problem. Testing Automation: Quality assurance is a critical area where AI shines. AI tools can auto-generate test cases for software, even for teams that might not have robust testing processes. AI can fill gaps in testing coverage for beginners or teams under pressure, providing a baseline of quality assurance. Documentation and Summaries: Tools like Descript and Zoom's AI features allow for the transcription and summarization of meetings, making it easier to keep track of key points and actions. These capabilities free up developers from manual note-taking and help them focus on implementing actionable insights. Planning and Scheduling: AI aids in project management by helping developers optimize their schedules, plan tasks, and streamline workflows. Michael highlighted the importance of AI for meeting prep and planning ceremonies in Agile environments. The Challenges of AI Adoption While the benefits are clear, the podcast also stresses caution. Beginners, in particular, need to verify AI-generated outputs to ensure they align with best practices and project requirements. Rob and Michael recommend cross-checking AI responses with trusted sources like Stack Overflow or GitHub discussions to avoid going down unproductive rabbit holes. Michael compared the process to early voice recognition tools like Dragon NaturallySpeaking, where the user had to train the software to achieve better results. Similarly, AI today requires user input and feedback to improve accuracy and utility. Building Habits with AI: A Developer's Challenge This episode's challenge encourages developers to explore AI daily: Identify a problem or task—whether coding, debugging, or planning. Use an AI tool to suggest solutions or assist with the task. Evaluate and refine the AI's suggestions to learn how to maximize its effectiveness. The goal isn't to rely entirely on AI but to build a habit of thoughtfully integrating AI into workflows. Over time, this practice will help developers identify areas where AI can save time and effort without compromising quality. The Future of AI in Development The podcast explores how AI is evolving, with companies like OpenAI, Google, and JetBrains pushing the boundaries. AI tools are now capable of understanding context, improving accessibility, and automating complex processes. As Rob noted, “Automation intelligence” is the real power of AI, allowing developers to focus on innovation while repetitive tasks are handled seamlessly. Key Takeaways for Developers Embrace AI as a tool, not a replacement: Use AI to augment your skills, not substitute for them. Experiment and refine: Explore different AI tools and provide feedback to improve their outputs. Stay informed: AI is rapidly evolving, and staying updated ensures you remain competitive. Conclusion As AI matures, its role in development will only grow more significant. By integrating AI into their workflows, developers can enhance efficiency and focus on building innovative solutions. The Building Better Developers podcast offers a timely reminder that the key to success lies in building habits that leverage AI effectively. Whether you're a seasoned developer or just starting out, now is the time to explore AI's transformative potential. Start this journey by experimenting with tools like ChatGPT, Copilot, or Whisper, and discover how AI can revolutionize your work.

In today's episode, we discuss the science of human decision-making and behavior with Dan Ariely, a world-renowned expert in psychology and behavioral economics. As the James B. Duke Professor of Psychology and Behavioral Economics at Duke University, Dan has dedicated his career to uncovering the irrational patterns that drive our decisions. He's the author of multiple bestselling books, including Predictably Irrational, The Upside of Irrationality, and The Honest Truth About Dishonesty, where he explores the predictable mistakes we make and how understanding them can lead to better outcomes in life, business, and relationships.  Join us for an eye-opening conversation with Dan Ariely as he explores the hidden biases and patterns that influence our decisions, from everyday choices to life-altering moments. Why do we often invest more time deciding on small purchases than major life decisions? How does regret shape our behavior, and why do we favor inaction over action?
