FF: What They Don't Tell You... Why did unemployment fall? What booms and busts occurred in the U.S. during times without a central bank? Was the Panic of 1907 planned to get us to accept the Federal Reserve? We go through the history of what happened today and in the past. We also talk about gold as a store of monetary energy as well as what we learned from those that attempted alchemy. What happens when you give a homeless man $100,000 with no strings attached? What are the 3 things you need to buy real estate? We cover all this and more, so you can learn to make your world a better place!

Time isn't your biggest problem. The way you're using it is. Learn how theme days and Financial Fridays can help you stop reacting and start building a more profitable business.

FF: The Loan to Japan The US has loaned money to Japan to prevent them from selling our treasuries. We talk about why this was good for the US government, how that may affect the average citizen, and what may happen next. We also discuss banks, the Great Financial Crisis, wars, bailouts, and debt. Everything changed when the U.S. stole Russian assets. Now, every ally has a right to question whether the US will honor its word or turn on them like they did to Russia. Our debt and loss of faith in the dollar will create big problems for us in the future. We talk about what the average person can do to protect themselves. We also talk about Eric's predictions, what has come true so far, and what may still happen before the end of the year. Crisis = Danger + Opportunity. Learn what you need to think about to use the events around you and create a better world for you and your family!

FF: Inflation, Fiat, and the Fed The government thinks they can control prices. We talk about the effects they can have on prices through their regulation. How did the Inflation Reduction Act affect the citizens? Why was the Dodd Frank Act important? What are the reserve requirements for banks? How did the increase in property taxes affect property owners? We also talk about the Federal Reserve and how their decisions about interest rates can affect things. The government has destroyed demand by making things so unaffordable, the average person can not afford to do it. How can you protect yourself? We talk about all this and more!

FF: Cashflow, Millionaires, Pilots, & the Fed The wealthy make decisions today that will bring them money in the future. The idea of being a millionaire may seem unachievable to those trading their time for money. We talk about how you can use assets and financing to gain positive cashflow, even with adjustable rates. While millionaires are more plentiful than most people realize, we cover the statistics for pilots, who are more rare than you might think! We cover the Fed's most recent announcement. Eric's prediction was correct, and explains how he knew what they were going to do. How will this affect you? Who does it affect? We answer that and more! We also talk about the importance of cashflow. Google exceeded its expectations for what they would accomplish, so what happened to their stock price?  Another CEO left a major company, which makes the 3rd in a short period.  Whether you run a business or are putting your money into an asset that can cashflow, you need to, at a minimum, break even, and preferably, make money every month. We also cover what is going on with gold and silver as well as recent events, so you can make decisions that will make your world a better place!

FF: Measured in Gold The U.S. is over $39.4 trillion in debt. The interest on that debt has doubled in the last 5 years. The government needs to quit spending more than the citizens are willing to pay in taxes, which is already at a breaking point. What happens if you save money in dollars for retirement? What if you invested in stocks? What if you saved in gold? Many parents have taught their kids to save in dollars. We explain why, with inflation, this is not a good idea. Measuring things in the price of dollars is inaccurate in the long term, as the purchasing power is being eroded every year. What if we measured things in gold? Americans love to hear the rags-to-riches stories of those who went from the lowest of the low to the highest of the high. If you are struggling with finances now, use that to push you to learn more, be more, and do more. It wasn't comfortable living in a warehouse and sleeping on the floor with no heat in December. It wasn't comfortable to be in a financially difficult position in 2007. However, those events pushed us to become what we are now. You can use today's adversity to propel you to a better position later if you are willing to learn, grow, and apply those lessons. Buy more hard assets faster, so you can make your world a better place! 2026 Home Business Conference Abolish Property Taxes in Ohio: www.AxOHTax.com  Get more information about abolishing all property taxes in Ohio. https://citizensforpropertytaxreform.org/ Our Links: www.RealPowerFamily.com Info@RealPowerFamily.com 833-Be-Do-Have (833-233-6428

FF: Physical vs. Governmental Constraints We have been draining the Strategic Petroleum Reserve in the U.S. At some point, if they drain it too low, they will risk collapsing the salt caves that store it. This is a physical constraint. Copper mines can take decades to get permitted by the government, which is a governmental constraint. We talk about many other limits, whether they are physical or governmental, and how they can affect the average citizen. Bad decisions lead to bad results. We cover AI and data centers, electric, wastewater regulations, kickbacks, and budgets. More people need to wake up and see what is happening in the world, so they can make decisions based on physical restrictions. There are many ways to make money. It is important to always be congruent in how you live your life and in what you invest in. Use the information in this episode to help make better decisions!

FF: Europeans in the US! There are many stories and videos from Europeans excited about the experiences they are having in the U.S. separate from the World Cup. They are loving the food, the people, the experiences, and the freedom they are witnessing. While the citizens in the U.S. may take for granted everything we have here, those from other locations are amazed and appreciative! We talk about some of these stories, the heat wave in Europe, and assets. We cover how most of the things people buy with a loan have experienced higher inflation than items paid for with cash. What have you used debt to buy? Are you using it effectively? We explain how leverage can be used to benefit people's financial situation. The government is still digging itself deeper into debt and is not even talking about reducing spending. Learn how you can improve your finances by using debt effectively!

This conversation explores the powerful connection between financial health and mental well-being, emphasizing that true financial security is about far more than income or investment returns. It examines how mindset, daily habits, emotional decision-making, and financial clarity influence stress, relationships, retirement planning, and overall quality of life. The discussion also highlights the psychological barriers that prevent people from making sound financial choices, the importance of developing healthy money habits across generations, and how practical strategies—such as those outlined in Retirement Saving Success: Three Simple Steps—can help individuals achieve greater confidence, peace of mind, and long-term financial wellness.

FF: Financial Independence If you want the money to create a better life for yourself and your family, there is a lot of information you need to understand in order to make the decisions to get you there. We cover some of these in this episode, as we talk about how the Federal Reserve makes decisions, what gold and silver are doing now, and the difference between what the government reports to be their inflation statistics and what reality tells us. We also cover how taxes have affected areas that had the highest wages in the nation, how the school system is overspending with poor educational results, and how the young, aggressive investor can work with the older, more experienced ones to create wealth for both. It is not logical to think you can immediately move out of your parents home and into your dream home. There are usually many steps in between that help to get you there. We talk about what we did to get to the home we live in now! Take this information to help you gain the financial independence you want for yourself and your family!

FF: What is a Trillionaire? What does it mean to be a trillionaire? Bernie Sanders said that no one should be one of these. Elon Musk is our first trillionaire, but he doesn't have a trillion dollars sitting in a bank account. He owns companies that together are valued at that amount. If he had to cash out to pay a large portion in taxes, what would it do to the stock market and people's retirement accounts? Today we talk about what politicians and legacy media claim, how Europeans are realizing that what they see in the U.S. doesn't match what they were being told, and how becoming educated can help you discern the actual truth even when someone is trying to give you bad information. We also talk about FEMA, permits, gas prices, and why it would be difficult to physically invade the U.S. This episode is about more than finances. It is also about freedom and liberty. Use this information to make your world a better place!

FF: How Governments Cheat There are many ways that governments cheat to steal money from their citizens. From the inflation tax to hiding the level of spending with off-balance sheet liabilities, the government will find a way to take more than you may realize. Now, some are starting to take money from IRA's to pay for off-balance sheet liabilities. We talk about inflation and how to use it to your advantage. We also discuss making money - not just earning but actual value creation that brings additional money into the economy! We also talk about the unintended consequences of the war with Iran that the Trump administration may not have considered before they started bombing. We also talk about the value delivered by Elon Musk and his companies. If you can understand value, interest, and inflation, you can make better financial decisions for yourself and your family!

FF: The Road to Financial Freedom Would you like to be financially free? Today we cover some of the important lessons to help people get started on their way to financial freedom. Any new endeavor will take more learning, time, and effort in the beginning. You will need clarity on where you are starting and where you want to go. Then, you need to take the path that will get you there. We talk about how other people are working on their businesses and investments as well as what lessons you can learn from where they are getting stuck. We also talk about the debt problems in multiple countries. Then, we discuss the debt buyback here in the US that the government would like us to be excited about (as well as why we aren't impressed by that.) Use all the information here to help get you closer to meeting your financial goals! If you want more help, check out our website for more education and tools to make it easier!

FF: Taxes & Wars are as Transitory as Inflation While the CPI claims inflation is only 3.8%, steak is up over 17%, ground beef over 18%, and coffee up over 29%. The war with Iran, that was only supposed to last a couple of weeks, is still going on. We discuss some of the news relating to this conflict.  We also talk about bonds in the U.S., the U.K., and Japan.  Other news we cover includes what is going on with data centers in Ohio, where auto delinquencies and credit card debt stands, and how the prime minister in India has asked the citizens to stop buying gold. It doesn't matter if you make $50K per year or $500K per year, it is the decisions you make with what you have that will determine how wealthy you are. We are currently in a late-stage debt crisis. You need to position yourself to handle that. Learn some of the information that can help improve your financial situation.

FF: The Capitalist System While some people believe that Capitalism is a system of greed, it is the system that has improved the quality of life for the poorest citizens. No collectivist system has managed to achieve what this system has done. We talk about different countries, energy, and the quality of life of the citizens. We also discuss inflation, voluntarism, and banking. In many banks, even the people that work there do not know that a bank can fail or what a bail-in is. We also talk about one bank that is doing things vastly differently than all its competition. We also cover inflation, insider trading by Congress, and the changes in price for the items we need to buy. Central banks are buying a lot of gold. You may want to consider buying more hard assets also!

FF: The Only Thing Needed for Evil to Triumph... Since Mamdani was sworn in as mayor, 892 companies have left the city. We talk about some of the places those companies have moved to and what else Mamdani did to make up for the city's budget shortfall. We also cover what happened in Festus, Missouri, when the city council thought they could have closed-door meetings in secret to authorize a data center. Just like may other cities, the power of the citizens to stand up and hold their elected officials accountable can have amazing results! We also talk about how Rep. Nancy Mace has over 1000 pages about payoffs for sexual harassment payoffs that taxpayers footed the bill for, and we are just waiting on the release of those pages. We also cover what law the state of Wisconsin passed that will help protect medical patients. This is all news you aren't going to want to miss! www.OurAmazingGrace.net Abolish Property Taxes in Ohio: www.AxOHTax.com  Get more information about abolishing all property taxes in Ohio.

FF: Capital Moves Faster Than Politicians In the 1980's, we had the "Nifty Fifty" stocks, followed by a crash. In the 90's we had the tech ramp that crashed in the Dot-Com Bubble. Today we are in the AI bubble. In this episode, we talk about Gamestop and their newest plan, the difference between the 80's and today, where the stock market is at, and what the government does with our tax dollars. We also talk about how Russia does not have the GDP to be able to "march across Europe," gold and silver, and how the items you can get a loan to buy have gotten so much more expensive. The government keeps telling us that the solution to every problem is to give them more money, but the results for those funds are not showing, as citizens are more efficient than the government. Protect yourself and your family by buying more hard assets!

Most real estate investors are making the same hidden financial mistakes — and they don't even know it. In this episode, David Richter sits back down with Mike Michaelowicz, the original author of Profit First, to break down the most common traps that keep entrepreneurs stuck in their business instead of building one — and the practical fixes that can change everything.They cover the difference between revenue and profit, why taxes surprise people every single year even though they shouldn't, why paying yourself a consistent salary changes everything, and what financial visibility actually looks like in practice.

FF: When to Hold'em & When to Sell Eric shares what his current investing strategy is, which includes selling some investments. He talks about the data he used to make that decision, why he is holding some assets and what makes him sell. We also talk about how inflation is affecting things across the board, the importance of cashflow, and how governments are causing problems for their citizens. We also cover choosing good partners, what educational events we are using to learn more, and how some people are holding homes because paying holding costs is cheaper than the tax hit from selling the property. This is an information-packed episode that you can use to learn how you can make your financial life better!

FF: Socialism, Racism, & Real Numbers While nominal value may be increasing for items like the Dow, the real numbers tell a different story. You need to know the difference to be able to make good decisions for yourself. We also cover Mamdani's plan to tax white neighborhoods more and what New York City may be like in the future. We cover illegal activities from a state representative in Florida, tipping culture, and gold. Why are rents dropping in Argentina? Javier Milei has taken many actions that are making housing more affordable in his country. What can the U.S. learn from them? If you don't have accountability or good incentive structures, you end up with a lot of waste, fraud, and abuse. Pendulums eventually swing to the other side, and we are heading toward more accountability and freedom!

FF: Hard Assets vs. Paper Promises Why are countries selling their U.S. bond holdings and repatriating their gold? How can you store the value you have created for long periods without losing purchasing power? Barter is an exchange of value for value, but using currency is easier. However, the longer you hold currency, the less it can buy. We cover currency, inflation, net operating income, war, and fiscal responsibility. We also cover the sunk-cost fallacy, what the Bank of France is doing now, and the difference between the letter of the law and doing what is logically right in a situation. With the conflicts and changes in the world today, you need to prepare yourself and your family for difficult times ahead. Learn how you can set yourself up to make your world a better place!

FF: How Much Does the Government Spend? The Government is spending more and more dollars every year beyond the value being created. We cover how these costs have ballooned in the last century, what replacing an A10 or an F15 fighter jet costs the government, how this war in Iran will affect us for many years to come, and how insurance rates have skyrocketed since the conflict began. While the U.S. government is taking too much from its citizens and spending it poorly, small businesses are actually the ones growing and hiring more people. We talk about how small businesses can serve their community better than an massive and slow one. Do you like how the government is spending your money? We cover the poll of what U.S. citizens think of the spending here. If we could shrink the size and spending of the government, how much more money would you have in your pocket?

FF: Government Decisions & Spending Governments do not always look at the unintended consequences of their decisions. We cover listener questions that include the conflict in Iran, social protection spending in the US and France, military spending, and more! Sentiment around the world shows more and more people from different countries standing up again big government and massive government spending. They are realizing that governments are not being congruent and its officials are not representing the people the way they want to be represented. If we want a better life and to pay less in taxes, we need to avoid the welfare and warfare. More people need to look at the big picture, so they can prepare and make their world a better place!

FF: Logical Investing How do you know what to buy and when to buy it? How do you assess the risk in assets before you buy? Today we talk about both assets we invest in and at least one investment we want to stay away from. We give you questions to ask yourself as well as walk you through what we ask ourselves when looking at investments. We cover gold, silver, Bitcoin, real estate, junior mining stocks, and even a tokenized new product that we consider to be speculative and risky. We discuss how investing for the short term can be different than investing for the long term. The value you create can be stored in hard assets, and only you can decide which assets are the best for your needs. In this episode, we give you some of the tools and questions you need to make better decisions for yourself and your future!

FF- The Greatest Economy? The Numbers Say Otherwise! President Trump claimed we have the "greatest economy," however, the numbers tell a different story. We talk about the Dow, jobs, oil, debt-to-GDP ratio, and other important metrics. If you can look at the numbers, you can see through any claims made by the government that are not accurate. If you can read situations more accurately, you can make better decisions. We also talk about how county auditors in Ohio are reporting that we should expect another jump in property values. We discuss why their aren't evaluating properties correctly as well as what taxpayers can do if they get a value that is inaccurate.  Use all of this information to make your world a better place!

FF: The Greatest Economy? Look at the Numbers! The Trump Administration thinks we have the greatest economy, but the numbers do not agree. If you see a contradiction, check your premises; one of them is wrong. We talk about the actual numbers, how inflation works, and ways the U.S. can increase the monetary supply without experiencing consumer price inflation. We also talk about AI, China's "green energy", and gold and silver. We also talk about the new incoming Fed Chair, Kevin Warsh, and what he is saying that is causing him to be labeled a "conspiracy theorist" by others. He has some good ideas, but will he be able to use those to positively influence the Fed's decisions? We'll see!

FF: Tracking, Trust, Tariffs, and Training The government's system is bound to fail...eventually. Until then, they will continue to get elected with promises they can't keep, create more dollars, devalue the dollars already in existence, fund the elites in Washington DC, and then socialize any losses. It doesn't seem to matter that our current president was a good businessman that understood basic business principles. Even he continues to increase the debt. The government will continue to tax as much as it can as long as they can convince the middle class that they are rich. Pam Bondi said we should all be excited because the DOW is over 50, but is that really a good thing? We talk about all this and more in this episode!

FF: Going from Rags to Riches Legally  If you want to improve your financial position, there are legal ways to do that. While many people may try to get paid under the table and cheat the tax system, this can be a detriment when it comes to using leverage to buy assets. Today we talk about the sinking dollar, inflation, government expenditures, and assets. We also go over steps you can take to go from needing assistance to becoming financially free, including paying less in taxes legally. If you want to improve your financial position, you need to learn about money, inflation, finance, and investing. We cover a lot about these topics, so you can make your world a better place!

FF: You Cannot Make Up Mistakes in Volume The U.S. Government seems determined to fight their debt problem with more debt. We discuss the problems in the Fed, the devaluation of the dollar, and how you can benefit from what is happening now. It is not possible for the government to pay off its debt and the Social Security/Medicare promises they have made. The only relief value is to devalue the dollar. We talk about what is happening in real estate, gold, silver, and Bitcoin as well as discuss ways to use these in an investing portfolio. Now is the everything bubble. Learn what you need to know to profit during this turbulent time!

FF: Money & Happiness There is a big difference between net worth and money in the bank. We talk about gold, silver, Bitcoin, and relative volatility. We also discuss stock to flow, conductivity, and fraud. We also talk about the importance of congruency. You can not be incongruent and happy. Happiness is not about emotional whims, guilt, or faking reality. It can only be achieved by a rational man who is acting congruently. That lesson can help improve your business, your family, and your entire life! Use this to make the world a better place!

FF: Talk vs. Action There is a big difference between what someone says and what they do. The legislators might tell you that they have saved you 3 billion dollars. They won't mention that this savings is spread over 10 years after they already increased what you pay over the last year by 3 billion. So did you really save anything? The Auditor might report that they do not have a backlog of tax disputes, but if there are 4509 complaints pending, how accurate is that statement? People can say that they want to stop government waste, fraud, and abuse, but are they taking actions to help make that happen? Today we talk about politicians, property taxes, Proposition 13 in California, and where our taxes go. We also talk about audits, accountability, and taking simple actions to protect yourself and make the world a better place!

FF: Hedge Fund Houses Trump said he wants to ban "large" investors from purchasing single family homes. The idea is that because these investors are buying homes, the price is going too high. This ignores the fact of the large increases in things like property taxes, insurance, labor, and building supplies. This also is not looking at how small the percentage is of single-family homes that institutions are purchasing. They didn't even talk about what is a "large" investor. In Ohio, they had labeled this as any investor that owns 50 or more (which by statistics is still pretty small). We talk about the numbers, the background, how investors saved the housing market after the Great Financial Crisis, and the questions that the politicians aren't asking themselves. If this is passed, expect a loss of privacy without any real relief for home prices. Learn what you need to know by joining us in this episode!

FF: Should I Quit Paying Taxes? Some people on social media are asking if they should stop paying taxes in protest to the waste, fraud, abuse, and war. We talk about the problems, the ramifications, and how we approach the topic of taxes. We discuss how you can "Give back to Caesar what is Caesar's" and still save without losing your purchasing power. We talk about unconstitutional laws and how you can fight against those. We cover topics from taxes, inflation, money, and how to stand up against the problems with taxes in a way that is legal. We need to approach the solution to problems in the right way to make the world a better place.

FF: When the Government Gets Involved... When we stopped depending on NASA, SpaceX figured out how to land a rocket and re-use parts to save a lot of money. Without government intervention, we created libraries, cars the common person could buy, and many other wonderful inventions. However, when the government gets involved and things become less local, resources get misallocated, citizens money is mis-spent, and power is misused. We discuss data centers, AI, bailouts, and more. We also go over a lawsuit in which the government mistakenly put property taxes on a property where it wasn't owed, charged fines and fees on that amount even after it was disputed, and then sold the property and kept all of the money (even the amounts over what they claimed was owed.) Pacific Legal Foundation is now involved in helping that family fight back against the government overreach. Learn how you can protect yourself and others to make the world a better place!

FF: You Can't Live in a Keynesian Economy Without Being an Investor Many investors are "default" investors, who did not start with the goal or knowledge of investing. In a Keynesian economy, which is based on debt, investing is a necessity. We talk about goals, direct benefit vs direct contribution retirement, interest rates, and much more. Anything you do in investing can make you go broke...including doing nothing. You need to plan your life, or you'll only get what life decides to give you. Join us to learn more about investing, so you can start your goal list for next year and make your world a better place!

FF: Look Where Gold and Silver are Now! Silver hit an all time high this month. With stockpiles going down and consumption and investment demand going up, we expect this trend to continue. The gold to silver ratio is below 70, and continues to go down. We talk about what is going on with gold and silver, compare pricing of items to 1971 costs, and talk about how the greatest trick the devil ever played is to convince people that they needed government assistance. Any time the government spends more, the value of our currency goes down. If you want to protect your purchasing power, you can put it into hard assets, like gold and silver. In this episode, we also share some predictions for these metals!

FF: Deficits DO Matter! We talk about holiday spending in the U.S. and Canada, which can add to the monthly deficit and overall debt for the consumer. Governments are continuously increases their debt and running deficits every year. While some may say that deficits don't matter or "in the long run, we'll all be dead," but the truth is that the only way to increase the monetary supply without inflation is to create enough value to account for the increase. That is not what is going on in the world today. The government deficit is added to GDP, but the government isn't actually producing anything, so the calculation for GDP is seriously flawed. The greatest trick the Fed ever did was to convince the world that 2% inflation was good. It just makes it take more currency to get the goods and services you need and steals your purchasing power. We talk about how you can plan ahead to make your world a better place!

FF: The NVIDIA Loop and Securitized Real Estate Would you invest in a company that would take 355 years to pay you back? Some people are doing that. We talk about how NVIDIA, Open AI, and Oracle have a profit loop that is ballooning company values for all three. This can't go on forever, especially with the financial issues for Open AI. We also talk about Jeff Bezos and his new project with real estate that may push up the price of housing and cause unintended consequences. For any investment, you should look at the big picture of where your money is going, how it will be paid back, and what risks are involved. We talk about this and more, so you can make good decisions with your finances!

FF: Money is Energy If you want a better life, you have to expend energy to create value. That value can be spent as currency or stored as money. We talk about assets to store value, including gold, silver, Bitcoin, and real estate. We go over the history of other items used as money, like seashells and salt, and the reasons why gold and silver have continued while others have not. We talk about how important decentralization is for protecting stored value. We give you additional resources to learn more about all of the topics discussed. Many experts are predicting crashes for the stock market and commercial real estate. Now is the time to prepare and save the value you have created, so you can thrive no matter what happens.

GDP, the Constitution, and Production The U.S. is NOT a democracy. It is a Constitutional Republic. We talk about what that means. We talk about government promises, red tape, and the end of the shutdown. We also talk about GDP and how it is not a good measure of actual production, especially when it adds in government spending. Where do our tax dollars go? Frequently they are spent on things we would not want our money spent on. What are you doing to protect yourself financially?

Deficits DO Matter! There is a difference between debt and deficits. We discuss how our deficit has gone down even though the debt has gone over 38 trillion. We also go over the difference between Keynesian economics and Austrian economics. We talk about the 6 richest counties in the nation, which probably aren't located where you think they would be. Foreigners and the major central banks have already realized that holding treasuries is not the best idea, so they are now holding more and more gold. What are we doing to store value? Buying more hard assets faster!

FF: Speculation vs. Investing Gold and silver are hitting all-time highs measured in today's dollars, but if we adjust for inflation, silver is still undervalued. One comment from the president about tariffs was enough to cause price drops in cryptocurrencies, although even after that drop, Bitcoin is still up 20% for the year. There is a big difference between Speculating and Investing. You need to understand the difference and learn how to invest. China and India are out of silver to sell, and if the London silver market freezes, the entire market will see the effects. You need to own physical metal - not ETF's. Use this information to help you buy more hard assets faster!

Most entrepreneurs have their calendars backwards—and it's costing them everything. Todd Herman has spent 21 years in high-performance athletics, working with Olympic athletes and billionaire entrepreneurs. His controversial insight is that most entrepreneurs are committing the cardinal sin of business: mistaking activity for achievement. Todd's philosophy is brutally simple: One goal. 90 days. Complete focus.  No more half-built bridges. No more "90% finished" projects that generate zero revenue. No more productive procrastination disguised as "strategic planning." Here's what hit home for me:  → Your calendar reveals whether you're getting results  → Most "goals" are actually just projects—and the distinction matters enormously  → Theme days (Marketing Mondays, Financial Fridays) create momentum through batching  → Meetings without all decision-makers present are just expensive gossip sessions If you're ready to graduate from anecdotal success stories to science-backed systems, this episode is essential listening. The show notes, including the transcript and checklist to this episode, are at marketingspeak.com/524.

In this empowering and refreshingly honest episode of the Transform My Dance Studio Podcast, Olivia Mode-Cater sits down with Inner Circle mentor Nadine Selinger to talk about a topic many studio owners would rather avoid: their numbers.  Nadine shares her journey from “QuickBooks was like poking me in the eyeballs” to celebrating her Financial Fridays, proving that mastering your finances isn't about being a math person. It's actually about about confidence, systems, and clarity.  Together, Olivia and Nadine unpack how studio owners can move from financial avoidance to financial control, and why profitability doesn't make you less passionate, it makes your purpose sustainable.  Whether you're terrified to open QuickBooks or already tracking every dollar, this conversation will help you face your numbers, strengthen your team, and build a studio that serves you, not the other way around.  You will learn:  Why most studio owners avoid their finances — and how to break the cycle  The four financial habits that shift you from chaos to control  How to make budgeting as creative as choreography  The mindset shift that turns “bad news” into better decisions  How to calculate your profit margins — and what 20% really looks like  Why “it's not personal, it's business” is a form of leadership, not coldness  Practical ideas for getting your team invested in revenue goals  How to gamify finances to motivate staff and celebrate wins  The ultimate reason to get your money right: freedom for your family and your future Whether you're terrified to open QuickBooks or already tracking every dollar, this conversation will help you face your numbers, strengthen your team, and build a studio that serves you, not the other way around.   

FF: Forget About Price - Look at Value There is a big difference between money and currency. While people were fascinated by alchemy, you cannot turn lead into gold. That is one of the reasons that gold is money. Since you can't just make more of it, it cannot be inflated like currency. We go over the market caps of different investments and how they relate to each other. We also talk about IPO's, risk, and price expectations. Since the dollar can be inflated, it may be better to measure the cost of things in something that the government cannot just make more of, like gold. In the end, it isn't the price of something, it's about the value.

FF: The Lottery, Tax, and Order from the State We talk about the difference between a tax deed state and a tax lien state. Tax lien states have certain percentages written into their laws, and we give some examples. We talk about the lottery, which is a small part of funding schools here and is at least voluntary, even if the odds make it unlikely for an individual to benefit. We talk about how investing in gold, silver, or Bitcoin would have gotten you a better return this year. The state of Ohio had submitted a letter telling a county that they had to raise property taxes by 42%. People have reached the end of what they can pay, so tax delinquency rates are up. Governments really need to study the Laffer Curve.

In this episode, I introduce my spin on the popular 75 Hard challenge—tailored specifically for therapists who are juggling private practice, family life, and self-care. Instead of focusing on fitness and aesthetics, this challenge is about sustainable habits that strengthen your business, mindset, and overall well-being. I'll walk you through the framework of this challenge, breaking down the eight criteria that will help you finish the year strong and how these simple yet powerful commitments can transform the way you show up for your practice and yourself. Topics Covered in this Episode: 2:18 - Why this challenge is 30 days instead of 75 4:59 - The first step every therapist needs to take for lasting motivation 9:10 - How to reframe your marketing into manageable weekly blocks 10:16 - The surprising journaling practice that rewires your mindset 13:57 - A simple meditation routine that makes a big difference 15:14 - The KPI habit that shifts you into CEO mode 16:33 - How to “bookend” your week with Marketing Mondays and Financial Fridays 18:02 - Why doing one thing that scares you weekly may be the biggest growth tool If you're ready to stop feeling scattered and instead create a practice and life that feels intentional, abundant, and energized, then this episode is your roadmap.
