After back-to-back rental letdowns, Tim and Vanessa decided they'd had enough. This episode dives into their journey from frustration to finally buying their first home in Tarpon Springs, Florida, with insights every first-time buyer can use.Tim and Vanessa's story begins with a double blow from their landlord — first being kicked out for renovations, then again just weeks later when the landlord decided to sell. The final straw came during their wedding anniversary weekend, in the middle of a hurricane, when they got the dreaded 30-day notice. Instead of giving up, they turned their anger into determination.With persistence and guidance from a unicorn realtor, they navigated the emotional rollercoaster of home shopping. They refused to settle, even when it felt tempting, and leaned on their realtor's network of lenders and inspectors to stay confident in the process. Their patience paid off: in early 2025, they closed on a $388,000 two-bedroom, two-bath home in Tarpon Springs, FL.This interview highlights the importance of resilience, choosing the right team, and never letting setbacks define your outcome. For anyone feeling stuck in the cycle of renting, Tim and Vanessa's journey is proof that perseverance and the right guidance can turn things around.Quote: “Don't settle.

What really separates an average real estate agent from a trusted financial advisor and real estate strategist? In this episode of Life Changing Money, Barbara welcomes her friend and real estate expert Melina Bradley for a deep-dive into how financial knowledge, lending programs, tax strategy, and mindset shape long-term wealth.Melina shares how her business exploded by helping others understand what's actually possible through real estate—not just sales, but VA loans, house hacking, investing, and how all of it ties back to taxes and strategy. Tune in to hear: The Doctor's Mortgage and why it's one of the most powerful but underutilized tools in the U.S.The difference between conventional, FHA, VA, and niche mortgages (and how to choose the right one)How to help your college-age kids graduate with equity, not debtWhat every real estate agent should know about lending, taxes, and cost segregation (but most don't)The #1 mindset shift that unlocks your real estate potentialHow to assemble your dream financial team—and why it changes everythingThe real ROI of understanding real estate, taxes, and strategy togetherWhy information—not risk—is what's actually holding most people backConnect with Melina: Instagram: @melinabradleyrealestate

What if the job you worked your whole life to get—the title, the income, the “security”—is the very thing stealing your purpose?In this powerful conversation, we unpack the hidden struggles of high-achieving professionals who feel trapped by success. Jamie Gruber, once a six-figure corporate executive, shares how reaching the top of the ladder led to an identity crisis, not celebration. If you've ever asked yourself, "Is this all there is?"—this episode is your wake-up call.Jamie didn't just walk away from a half-million-dollar salary—he gave up nearly $1M in unvested equity to chase alignment, not approval. From identity shifts and impossible goals to surrounding yourself with the right tribe, Jamie reveals how he reinvented his life through community, content creation, and courageous decisions.Quotes:“I spent money to enter the room to then go add value, so I literally pivoted over to let me just figure out how I can be of the most help to whomever I come in contact with.” - Jamie Gruber“Identity shifts first—results follow. Most people believe they'll become someone new after they achieve the goal, but real change happens when you claim the identity before the results show up” - Jamie Gruber“Action leads to outcomes you can't always predict—but your energy never lies. Trust it.” - Jamie GruberKey Takeaways:Identity First, Results SecondReal transformation begins when you step into the identity of who you want to become—before you see the results. Results lag behind identity shifts.Set Impossible Goals on Short TimelinesJamie followed a strategy he didn't even realize he was using at first: setting seemingly impossible goals with urgent timelines to create clarity and momentum.Environment is EverythingThe right community doesn't care who you've been—they hold you accountable to who you say you're becoming. That support made all the difference in Jamie's leap from corporate to creator.Conclusion:This episode is a call to stop living someone else's definition of success. Jamie Gruber's journey reminds us that the most powerful shifts begin internally—when we claim the identity of who we're meant to be. From there, it's about taking action, finding the right people, and trusting your energy to guide the way. Whether you're stuck in a high-paying job that no longer fits or standing on the edge of your next big leap, this conversation is proof: you don't need permission to rewrite your story.

The marketing world feels gross because most of it IS gross. But what if I told you that ethical marketing isn't just possible—it's actually your secret weapon as a therapist?While other industries scramble to add "authenticity" to their marketing playbook, you've been practicing it your entire career. You already know how to influence ethically, build trust without manipulation, and create genuine transformation. You just didn't know it was marketing.The uncomfortable truth: Your humility might be beautiful, but if people can't find you, it becomes a barrier to your service. In a world where louder, less-trained voices are filling the vacuum, ethical visibility isn't just smart business—it's a public health necessity.In this essential episode, I break down:Why that "icky" feeling about marketing is actually a sign of your professional integrityThe clinical parallels you've been missing: ACT's creative hopelessness IS ethical marketingHow motivational interviewing techniques translate directly to sales conversationsThe 4 Pillars of Ethical Marketing framework (transparency, genuine value, evidence, autonomy respect)Real vs. manufactured pain points—and why neuroscience backs addressing authentic strugglesRobert Cialdini's influence principles: when they're ethical vs. manipulativeConcrete examples of what NOT to do (fake scarcity, hidden pricing, manufactured urgency)What ethical marketing actually sounds like in practiceWhy "marketing as service" changes everythingThe game-changer: You're not learning to market—you're learning to apply your existing clinical skills at scale. Your therapy training already taught you ethical influence, boundary management, and how to create safety and trust. Now it's time to use those superpowers to reach the people who need your help.Bottom Line: Ethical marketing isn't about becoming someone else—it's about becoming more you, just in public. Your clinical advantage gives you everything you need to market with integrity while others manipulate their way to sales.

In this raw conversation, I sit down with the powerhouse that is Tiffanee Cook—former boxer, podcaster, speaker, and self-confessed human experiment—who gets brutally honest about her journey into perimenopause, HRT, hormonal chaos, and all the emotional, mental, and physical curveballs that came with it.We talk about what it's really like to navigate the rollercoaster of womanhood when you're constantly told you're "fine"—but deep down, you know you're not. Tiff shares her experience with HRT, testing frustration, burnout, ADHD, identity shifts, and why hitting the pause button (hello breathwork, yin, and solo hikes) might just be the key to coming home to yourself.We also get into:How tracking your cycle changes everythingThe reality of being a woman in a system that doesn't test for what mattersWhy the fitness industry is missing the mark for womenEmotional regulation, self-auditing, and relationship dynamicsSupplements, glucose monitors, and why B6 is not your friendThe stories we tell ourselves vs. what actually happenedAnd the truth about cookies, croissants, and chocolate cravingsThis isn't a “how-to” on hormones—it's a “holy sh*t, I'm not alone” kind of conversation.You'll love this if you've ever said:“I feel like a completely different person lately.”“Is this burnout or is this hormonal?”“Why didn't anyone teach me this stuff sooner?”“I just want to feel like me again.”

In this episode, I'm sitting down with Brittnie from Brittnie Renee Photography to talk about something every busy photographer mom struggles with: time management and getting it all done. Brittnie shares her incredible transformation from being completely overwhelmed (literally sobbing on a coaching call!) to now running four businesses while feeling less stressed than when she had just one.Key takeaways:How simple routines can free up hours you didn't know you hadWhy starting with just one small evening routine can change everythingThe game-changing power of the "top three priorities" methodHow Brittany's new photography planner teaches you to actually plan (not just write stuff down)If you're tired of feeling overwhelmed and want to create more time for both your business AND your family, this conversation is exactly what you need. 

In this episode, I unpack some of the core ideas from The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F**k by Mark Manson — and how they relate (or don't) to burnout recovery. We'll explore why the pursuit of positivity can backfire, what “choosing your struggles” actually means, and how to take radical responsibility without shame or blame.You'll hear my take on:Why you shouldn't try to care about everythingThe role of values, pain, and freedom in how you spend your energyWhere “extreme ownership” helps burnout — and where it harmsWhy accepting the bad is key to getting your power backThis isn't about blaming yourself. It's about choosing what really matters — so you can stop the self-abandonment cycle and start living with purpose again.

Alexa Rosenthal is the co-founder of Eco University, where she built a multi-million dollar herbalism program after receiving guidance from plant medicine to "make plants sexy again." But behind her entrepreneurial success was a 20-year journey with antidepressants that began at age 16. After seven failed attempts to get off SSRIs, Alexa finally found a path to freedom through sacred witnessing, grief work, and learning to trust her body's natural capacity to feel. Now eight months medication-free, she's courageously sharing the raw reality of what worked—and what didn't—in her healing journey. Through radical vulnerability and honest storytelling, she's pioneering a new model of feminine leadership that refuses to hide the messy, non-linear path of authentic transformation while demonstrating that regulation, not performance, can be the foundation for sustainable creation.What You'll Discover: Why a $1.6 million business milestone became her breaking pointThe shocking reality of what happens when your emotional "container" disappearsHow she broke her hand learning to feel again after 20 years of numbnessThe ancient healing technology called "sacred witnessing" that changed everythingThe disturbing 2013 medical change that criminalized natural griefWhy antidepressants are actually "outsourcing your emotional power"The surprising link between women's rage and planetary healingWhat happened when she tried to raise capital while getting off psychiatric drugsYour vulnerability is not your weakness. It's your gift.If you're feeling the call to trust what your body is telling you—whether about medication, relationships, career, or anywhere you've been outsourcing your power—you're not alone in this work.The courage to feel fully, ask for help, be seen in your mess, and trust your body's wisdom over external validation is the revolution our world needs right now.Listen to discover the practical tools and raw honesty that can support your own path to wholeness.Connect with Lex:Website: https://www.ecoversity.org/Instagram: @lex.of.roseConnect with Raj:Website: http://www.rajjana.com/Instagram: @raj_janaiTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/rs/podcast/stay-grounded-with-raj-jana/id1318038490Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBPYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@raj_janaLegal Disclaimer: The information and opinions discussed in this podcast are for educational and entertainment purposes only.

Ever felt so overwhelmed by the clutter that you just want to throw everything out?I've been there. And trust me—so have the women I work with every day.The mental load, the lack of time, the mess that just. won't. quit.It builds up until decluttering turns from something intentional… into a frantic purge.But what if throwing it all away doesn't actually make you feel better?What if that kind of all-or-nothing approach is keeping your home from truly working for you?In this episode, I'm sharing a surprising (and hilarious) lesson about minimalism, home organization, and the KonMari method—straight from an episode of Family Guy.

Then hit play now.Because you're not just decluttering…You're overcoming overwhelm.One intentional choice at a time.

Your kids have selective hearing, right? Like, they can hear a candy wrapper from three rooms away but somehow can't hear "please clean your room" when you're standing RIGHT THERE? Here's the thing nobody's telling you: The reason your kids won't listen has NOTHING to do with your volume, your consequences, or that fancy reward chart you spent 3 hours making on Pinterest. (I see you, crafty parent. I've been there. Mine had glitter. SO much glitter.) The real reason? Brace yourself... They don't feel heard. By YOU. I KNOW. I KNOW. Your brain just went "But Andee, I'M the one talking to a brick wall here!" Stay with me, this is where it gets good. In this game-changing episode, I'm spilling ALL the tea about: Why that mom who came to me with a grunting 14-year-old is now getting hour-long heart-to-hearts (no, really!)The mortifying moment my kid said "Mom, I just need you to listen" and changed EVERYTHINGThe backwards solution that sounds bananas but actually works (science says so!)How I went from Lecture Queen to Actually-My-Kids-Tell-Me-Stuff MomBut here's the kicker...When YOU master listening first? Your kids start WANTING to hear what you have to say. Like, voluntarily. Without bribes. Without threats. Without you turning into Scary Mommy Voice™. Wild, right?Quick story time: Remember when I told you about interrupting my kid after 18 seconds? (Eighteen! Seconds! The researchers weren't wrong, y'all.) Well, after implementing what I'm teaching in The Listening Lab, that same kid - now an adult, tells me EVERYTHING. The good, the bad, the "Mom, don't freak out but..."And I don't freak out. Because I learned The Thing.This workshop is your jam if:You've said "How many times do I have to tell you?!" in the last 24 hoursYour kids' eyes glaze over the second you open your mouthYou're SO over being the Nagging Parent™You're ready to try something that sounds backwards but actually worksWhat you're getting:One simple tool (just ONE!
