The Money Habit on How to Finally Take Control of Your Finances   What if your biggest money problem isn't how much you earn—but how you manage what you already have?   In this week's episode of Richer Soul, bestselling author Mike Michalowicz (Profit First, Clockwork, All In) returns to share insights from his new book, The Money Habit. It's a simple, behavior-based approach to mastering personal finances—no spreadsheets, guilt, or complicated budgets required.   Key Insights from the Conversation:  Making Money Is One Skill—Keeping It Is Another. Most people learn how to earn but never master how to keep money. Mike reminds us that wealth isn't built by income alone—it's built by intentional systems that preserve and direct your money before it slips away. Financial Independence vs. Financial Freedom. Financial freedom is doing what you want, when you want, without worrying about money. Financial independence means having authority over your money—so it no longer controls you. That authority starts with awareness. How Credit Cards and "Points" Hack Our Brains. Credit cards are engineered to make you spend more. Points and perks are psychological triggers that override rational decision-making. Mike shows how to flip the script by setting up commitment devices—systems that protect you from yourself. Build Your Money "Envelopes" at the Bank. Instead of one big account, divide your money into clear purposes—needs, wants, dreams, and slush funds. Label debit cards for each category. When you spend, you'll instantly see whether you're honoring your priorities or drifting off course. Teach by Example. Your kids don't learn about money from what you say—they learn from what you do. Modeling calm, structure, and intentional spending plants lifelong financial wisdom in the next generation.   Money Learning from Mike: We often think more money will solve our problems. It won't. The real transformation happens when we gain authority over what we already have. Whether you earn $50,000 or $500,000 a year, financial independence starts by giving every dollar a job before it leaves your account.   Key Takeaway: Financial peace isn't found in making more—it's found in mastering what you already have. Start small: create one new account for your biggest money worry today, label it clearly, and fund it consistently. Small actions, done repeatedly, become lifelong habits.   Bio: Mike Michalowicz (my-CAL-o-wits) is the entrepreneur behind four multi-million-dollar companies and the author of bestselling business books including Profit First, Clockwork, The Pumpkin Plan, and All In.

Jillian Greaves is a Functional Dietitian and Women's health specialist, the owner of the private practice Jillian Greaves Functional Nutrition & Wellness, and the creator of the PCOS Root Reversal Program. Jillian provides comprehensive nutrition and lifestyle counseling to women, with a special emphasis on PCOS, fertility, hormone balance, and digestive health. Jillian and her team help women identify and address the root causes of their hormone and digestive symptoms using advanced lab testing, personalized nutrition, and supportive lifestyle therapies as the first line of intervention.

In this episode, I turn to the Romantics as guides for a world coming apart, viewing Mary Shelley's Frankenstein as a protest against a mechanistic worldview that devalues feeling. Some questions that emerge from this journey are:   What do we do when technology outpaces our moral framework? Just because we're able to do something, should we? What responsibilities do we incur when we create a new form of life?  Are we repeating Frankenstein's mistake when we build systems and then disclaim any obligation to the creatures we have released onto the world? Books Mentioned: Magnificent Rebels, Andrea Wulf Romantic Outlaws, Charlotte Gordon Frankenstein, Mary Shelley A Flash of Golden Fire, Thomas Elsner The Rime of the Ancient Mariner, Samuel Taylor Coleridge The Romantics and Us, Simon Schama BERGHAIN, Rosalia [Lux] Guillermo del Toro's, Frankenstein

There was a time when hyper-violent, sexually charged OVAs ruled the Japanese home-video market—and few creators embodied that era more than Yasuomi Umetsu, the director behind Kite and Mezzo Forte. Kite even spawned an American live-action remake starring Samuel L. Jackson (which… let's be honest, barely anyone saw).Now, Umetsu is back. His latest work just hit U.S. theaters last week, and we're breaking down exactly what we thought of it.

Clockwork began with a narrow goal—keeping clocks synchronized across servers—but soon realized that its precise latency measurements could reveal deeper data center networking issues. This insight led the company to build a hardware-agnostic monitoring and remediation platform capable of automatically routing around faults. Today, Clockwork's technology is especially valuable for large GPU clusters used in training LLMs, where communication efficiency and reliability are critical. CEO Suresh Vasudevan explains that AI workloads are among the most demanding distributed applications ever, and Clockwork provides building blocks that improve visibility, performance and fault tolerance. Its flagship feature, FleetIQ, can reroute traffic around failing switches, preventing costly interruptions that might otherwise force teams to restart training from hours-old checkpoints. Although the company originated from Stanford research focused on clock synchronization for financial institutions, the team eventually recognized that packet-timing data could underpin powerful network telemetry and dynamic traffic control. By integrating with NVIDIA NCCL, TCP and RDMA libraries, Clockwork can not only measure congestion but also actively manage GPU communication to enhance both uptime and training efficiency. Learn more from The New Stack about the latest in Clockwork: Clockwork's FleetIQ Aims To Fix AI's Costly Network Bottleneck What Happens When 116 Makers Reimagine the Clock? Join our community of newsletter subscribers to stay on top of the news and at the top of your game.   Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

AI is here to stay. It will just get better and more polished as we move towards a more futuristic society. Accounting firms might as well know how to use it to their advantage. This is exactly what Fady Hawatmeh is doing through his company Clockwork, the first AI-powered Financial Planning and Analysis (FP&A). He joins Michelle Weinstein to share how they are revolutionizing CFO advisory and solving software inaccuracy through automation, minimizing hours of manual work to just a few minutes.

The musical landscape of September 2024 unfolds like a treasure map of sonic discoveries as Matt Sidhom and guest co-host Jen Tully navigate through twelve diverse new releases that defy easy categorization.They kick things off with the track, "Everybody Scream," from Florence and the Machine's upcoming sixth album, which creates a space where women don't have to "be quiet" or "be kind" – a witchy celebration of unrestrained feminine power. Meanwhile, Role Model's infectious "Sally When the Wine Runs Out" has transformed into a cultural moment, with celebrities from Natalie Portman to Al Roker taking turns as the song's namesake during live performances.The conversation shifts to gritty territory with Idles' "Rabbit Run," where Joe Talbot's distinctive Cockney delivery powers the soundtrack to Austin Butler's new film. This leads into Old Dominion's surprisingly affecting "Miss You Man," a country ballad that captures male friendship and grief with remarkable authenticity. Wet Leg reveals unexpected vulnerability with "Pokemon," a softer departure from their typically harder-edged sound, while Doja Cat delivers another potential hit with "Jealous Type" . The musical journey continues through jam band territory with Goose's soulful "Madelena," the country-rap fusion of BigXThaPlug and Shaboozey's "Home," and the truly unexpected "Clockwork" by Laufey, which sounds like a Disney princess number addressing thoroughly modern themes.The episode closes with universal praise for Dominic Fike's "Sandman," a perfect blend of hip-hop, rap, and old-school R&B influences that showcases why he remains one of music's most exciting voices. Discover these tracks and more by following Super Awesome Mix on Instagram and YouTube, and don't miss Jen's podcast "What Are You Listening To" with new Season 7 episodes dropping now!https://music.apple.com/us/playlist/sam-new-music-september-2025/pl.u-pmebHdKjlz1.

In this episode of The Brilliant Book Festival, I'm joined by Mike Michalowicz, author of nine business books including Profit First and The Pumpkin Plan, to explore how entrepreneurs can escape what he calls “entrepreneurial poverty” and create a business that runs smoothly, profitably and in alignment with their strengths. Mike shares why the secret to growth isn't serving everyone, but identifying the right clients, pricing in a way that reflects your true value, and letting go of the rest (without guilt). We talk about why bad-fit clients drain more than your bank account, how to attract people who value what you offer, and why you should always love yourself enough to charge what you're worth. If you've been caught in the cycle of over-delivering, undercharging, and feeling too stretched to serve your best clients well, this conversation will help you see a simpler, more sustainable path forward - one that makes space for better clients, better work and a better life. ‍ ‍ Prefer to WATCH instead of read?

It tells the world how valuable you believe your work is.” – Mike Michalowicz ‍ ‍ Why Pricing is More Than a Number Most entrepreneurs fear raising prices, but as Mike explains, pricing isn't just about covering costs. It's a signal to the market about the quality and impact of your work. When you charge appropriately, you attract clients who align with your value, and you create the capacity to serve them at your best. ‍ ‍ Letting Go of the Wrong Clients It's tempting to hold on to every paying client, but the wrong ones cost far more than they contribute. Mike shares strategies for identifying unfit clients, and how to release them in a way that's professional, kind, and freeing - making space for your business to grow in the right direction. ‍ ‍ “Your best business will always grow from your best clients. Focus there, and create more space for them to thrive with you.” – Mike Michalowicz ‍ ‍ The Three Questions that Unlock Growth Mike offers three simple but powerful questions to ask your best clients, questions that reveal what makes you stand out, how you can differentiate yourself from the industry, and where to find more people just like them. ‍ ‍ From “Doing it All” to Designing a Business that Runs Without You We discuss the trap of the “superhero entrepreneur” who tries to do everything themselves, and why true leadership means designing a business that thrives without your constant presence. Mike explains how he tests this by taking a four-week (sometimes seven-week) annual vacation, and how it's made his business stronger. ‍ ‍ If you only take one thing away from this episode… Your best business will come from your best clients. Focus on them, price in alignment with your value, and give your business the space it needs to grow - without burning yourself out. ‍ ‍ Final Thought to Reflect On? What could change for you if you stopped competing for every client - and started leading in your own niche, with quiet confidence and clear value? ‍ Want to explore what this could look like for you?Learn more about the ways you can work with Melitta Campbell to uncover your Value Sweet Spot to market, sell and grow your business confidently, and always on your terms.

Hello and welcome back to the show! Today Ryder Lee joins us to discuss his documentary A Clockwork Shining!

Mike Michalowicz is the author of ⁠Profit First⁠, which is used by hundreds of thousands of companies across the globe to drive profit – Creator Science is one of those companies. Profit First has helped me develop sound financials for my business. He's also the author of Clockwork, a powerful method to make any business run on automatic, and seven other books as well. With more than 500,000 book sales, all of Mike's books have the same goal – to help small business owners and eliminate what he calls “entrepreneurial poverty.” Simon Sinek has called Mike “…the top contender for the patron saint of entrepreneurs.” This conversation is divided into halves: The first half explores Mike's unique model as an author. For each book Mike writes, he partners with a third party to license the frameworks from his books and serve as the done-for-you service provider. This is super uncommon and part of why he's been so prolific while running a very lean team. So we dig into how that works (and what he'd do differently if he were starting over today). The second half of the conversation is all about writing books. Mike has published nine books since 2008 – including 7 in the last 8 years. So we dig into how he determines what ideas to turn into books and how to write them so quickly. ⁠Full transcript and show notes⁠ Mike's ⁠Website⁠ / ⁠Twitter⁠ / ⁠Instagram⁠ / ⁠YouTube⁠ / ⁠LinkedIn⁠ *** RECOMMENDED NEXT EPISODE → ⁠#176: April Dunford – How self-publishing a book exploded her client service business.⁠ *** ASK CREATOR SCIENCE → ⁠Submit your question here⁠ *** WHEN YOU'RE READY

Clockwork gears, impractical goggles, and a lot of brass pipes make this alternate-history aesthetic the perfect sedative. Steampunk somehow blends Victorian fashion with speculative tech, and yet still manages to be relaxing enough for sleep or background bedtime noise.

We're back with Episode 93 of the Camerosity Podcast!  This time, we've altered our recording time to better suit those of our listeners across the pond who are normally sleeping when we record at our usual time.  For this 'European time zone friendly' episode, we welcome special guest, collector, and author John Wade who has written or contributed to more than 30 books, including a couple which I have relied on for several of my camera reviews. In addition to John, we were joined by callers Brian MacDomhnaill from Ireland, Fernando Villava from Germany, Guy from Germany, Leon Blankenhorn from Germany, and domestic callers Miles Libak and Andrew Madsen. And of course we had our regular hosts, Anthony Rue, Stephen Strangways, and our time zone friendly recording time also allowed Paul Rybolt to join us who has been vacationing in Ireland for the past month.  As this episode was recorded at 4am in Sydney, we gave Theo the day off. With John's expertise, we spent a lot of time talking about Britain's only 35mm SLR, the Wrayflex.  As the author of the only specialized book on the Wrayflex and the company who made it, John has a fascinating level of knowledge on this attractive and quirky camera.  In addition to Wray, we spent a lot of time talking about clockwork cameras, you know, those cameras that have a spring tensioned wind up film advance mechanism.  We discussed a wide variety of models from the very first wind up camera, the Japy Le Pascal, Ansco No.1A Automatic Ansco, and later cameras like the Debrie Sept, Bell & Howell Foton, Canon Dial, Ansco Auto Half, GOMZ Leningrad, and others. We briefly talk about the British Leica copy, the Reid and Sigrist Reid camera and the American equivalent the Premiere Instrument Kardon, among other popular British cameras. In addition to John's contributions, Paul shares with us another 617 camera he's got his eye on, Brian tells a tale about lenses he thinks he needs and never uses, Mike shares an uncommon German camera he recently GASsed over, Guy brags about all his working Rollei A110s, the brightness of the Olympus Pen F's viewfinder, and we go around the room asking which cameras each of us have the most duplicates of. As always, the topics we discuss on the Camerosity Podcast are influenced by you!  Please don't feel like you have to be an expert on a specific type of camera, or have the level of knowledge on par with other people on the show.  We LOVE people who are into shooting or collecting cameras, no matter how long you've been doing it, so please don't consider your knowledge level to be a prerequisite for joining! The guys and I rarely know where each episode is going to go until it happens, so if you'd like to join us on a future episode, be sure to look out for our show announcements on our Camerosity Podcast Facebook page, the Camerosity Discord server, and right here on mikeeckman.com. We usually record every other Monday and announcements, along with the Zoom link are typically shared 2-3 days in advance. For our next episode, we are going back to our regular recording time and will be welcoming Meredith and Corey Reinker from Roberts Camera/Used Photo Pro in Indianapolis, Indiana to share with us their stories selling vintage cameras on eBay and in a well established retail environment.  We may welcome some callers from other camera stores too, but you'll just have to join us to see who calls in!  We will record Episode 94 on Monday, June 16th at 7pm Central Daylight Time and 8pm Eastern Daylight Time.

Guillermo del Toro’s career started small, with the small-scale vampire (sort of) horror (sort of?) movie “Cronos,” in which an old man finds a mechanical object containing a magical bug that gives him eternal life in the bad way. Meanwhile, young Ron Perlman hates his evil uncle but continues to do his bidding! It’s a fun 1992 throwback that is still recognizeably del Toro.

This week on the Digitally Overwhelmed podcast I got to interview author and popular keynote speaker, Mike Michalowicz. I had so much fun interviewing Mike because he has so much wisdom to share about running your small business finance (among other things). Sometimes when it comes to “serious” topics like doing the finances in our business, it can be hard to find resources and frameworks that are motivating to follow. And all of Mike's books do exactly that: the inspire you to take action, but also give you some clear rules to follow.  In this conversation we talk about bringing comedy to the business world, depression in the entrepreneur community, and how he uses A/B testing in his business to make decisions. Mike Michalowicz is a former small business columnist for The Wall Street Journal; is the former MSNBC business make-over expert; is a popular keynote speaker on innovative entrepreneurial topics; and is the author of Profit First, Surge, The Pumpkin Plan and The Toilet Paper Entrepreneur   Mike Website: http://www.mikemichalowicz.com/ Mike's IG: https://www.instagram.com/mikemichalowicz/   Mike's Books Profit First: https://profitfirstbook.com/ Clockwork: http://clockworkbymikemichalowicz.com/  Surge: http://surgebymikemichalowicz.com/ The Pumpkin Plan: http://pumpkinplan.com/ Toilet Paper Entrepreneur: http://toiletpaperentrepreneur.com/ http://digimorphs.com https://www.instagram.com/digimorphs/ Website Links: Full episode show notes for this episode: https://digitalbloomiq.com/podcastepisodes/mikemichalowicz-interview?rq=mike%20 Get email updates on all podcast episodes (+ SEO tips, behind the scenes, and early bird offers) : here: https://digitalbloomiq.com/email 90 Day SEO Plan: Your Dream Clients Booking You Overnight!

Description:In this episode of Kilowatt, We dive into the pressing issues surrounding electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure, particularly focusing on the challenges and frustrations that drivers face when their charging stations fail to operate effectively. We recount typical scenarios where drivers are left stranded when multiple chargers fail during their attempts to power up their vehicles. This experience not only diminishes trust in the charging network but also impacts the operator's brand and bottom line.Support the Show:PatreonAcast+Other Podcasts:Beyond the Post YouTubeBeyond the Post PodcastShuffle Playlist918Digital WebsiteGuest Links: Andrea Curry (Linkedin)Jenn Buchanan (Linkedin)Clockwork (Website)Clockwork (Linkedin)*Show Art Created By Dall-eSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/kilowatt.

Today's guest is someone who knows a thing or two about business growth and profitability—Mike Michalowicz the entrepreneur behind three multimillion-dollar companies and the bestselling author of Profit First, Clockwork, The Pumpkin Plan, and his latest book, All In. He's also been a small business columnist for The Wall Street Journal and a business makeover expert on MSNBC. These days, he travels the world helping entrepreneurs simplify their businesses, grow sustainably, and—most importantly—avoid burnout.His mission? To lift the weight off the entrepreneurial spirit. In this episode, Mike sits down with Kendra Johnson, International Car Wash Association Senior VP of Growth, to talk about practical, no-nonsense ways car wash owners can streamline their business and set themselves up for long-term success.
