She encourages listeners to be intentional about their actions and to focus on becoming their strongest selves, both physically and mentally, in the new year. takeaways 92% of Americans do not see their New Year's resolutions happen.

Organizing cash flow is essential for effective planning. Not all clients have the same financial goals or timelines. Automating financial decisions can reduce stress and improve consistency. Regular reviews of financial plans are necessary due to life changes. Clarity in financial goals leads to better decision-making. Avoiding common mistakes can significantly improve financial outcomes.

What if the way you're asking clients about their goals is actually making it harder for them to follow through?Most coaches ask what their client wants to accomplish, get an answer like "I want to get out of debt" or "I want to save more," and then move straight into strategy. Goal identified, check. Time to build the plan.But here's what's missing: connection. Not your connection to their goal, THEIR connection to it.People don't take action because they have a goal. They take action when that goal feels meaningful. When they can picture what shifts on the other side of it. When they understand why it matters right now, in this season of their life.In this episode, I'm walking you through the MeaningFirst Method™, a conversation framework that helps clients move from pressure-driven goals to goals rooted in personal truth and desire. This is the foundation that makes everything else easier: the follow-through, the consistency, the willingness to come back after a setback, the sense of ownership.You'll hear exactly how to guide this conversation, what questions to ask, when to pause and let silence do the work, and how to help clients uncover what they actually care about, not just what they think they should want.This isn't about adding more to your session checklist. It's about creating the clarity that makes every other conversation more effective. Because when meaning comes first, strategy has something real to build on.Links & Resources:Ultimate Growth GuideJoin the Facebook groupMeaning First Method Conversation Guide (one-page downloadable)Client Creator Challenge (90-day program starting January 8th)Key Takeaways:Your job isn't just to ask about goals; it's to help clients connect to them. People follow through when goals feel meaningful, not simply when they've been stated out loud.Sometimes the stated goal isn't the real thing that matters. It's the doorway to what actually drives them: more freedom, calm, choice, breathing room.The client's goal is both the North Star and the map. It shows you where you're going and informs every choice you recommend along the way.MeaningFirst helps clients shift from "I should fix this" to "I want to build a life that feels aligned." That's a fundamentally different, and far more sustainable, experience.Let silence work for you. After asking what makes a goal important right now, pause. Give them space to think and feel their way to the real answer.Connection comes before strategy, always. Only after meaning is clear do we start planning timelines, pacing, and tactics.This framework sustains motivation when things get hard. When clients understand what they actually care about, they can reconnect to that meaning every time they want to quit.

As we approach the end of the year, it's time to get honest about our money. In this episode, we sit down together to unpack what it really means to reflect on our finances, understand our numbers, and set intentional goals for 2026.Daniel, Bo, and Julia break down why most agents live closing to closing, how commingling business and personal funds keeps us blind to the truth, and why running a P&L on both sides of our financial lives matters. We explore the Profit First method, the power of setting up multiple buckets, and how to build discipline through structure—not willpower.We also talk tax strategy: year-end deductions, depreciation, charitable giving, and why your CPA's job (reducing taxable income) might conflict with your lender's job (qualifying you for a loan). And we dive into the hierarchy of goals—I Promise, I Know, I Think, I Hope, I Pray—and how tying emotion to your goals creates real momentum.Whether you're preparing for taxes, planning for growth, or simply trying to stop “living on swipe,” this conversation gives you the clarity, tools, and practical steps to make 2026 your strongest financial year yet.Resources:Learn more at The Color of MoneyRead Profit First by Mike MichalowiczBecome a real estate agent HEREConnect with Our HostsEmerick Peace:Instagram: @theemerickpeaceFacebook: facebook.com/emerickpeaceDaniel Dixon:Instagram: @dixonsolditFacebook: facebook.com/realdanieldixonLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/dixonsolditYouTube: @dixongroupcompaniesJulia Lashay:Instagram: @iamjulialashayFacebook: facebook.com/growwithjuliaLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/julialashay/YouTube: @JuliaLashayBo MenkitiInstagram: @bomenkitiFacebook: facebook.com/obiora.menkitiLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/bomenkiti/Produced by NOVAThis podcast is for general informational purposes only.

Summary In this conversation, Lisa Conway-Hughes discusses her ambitious vision for growing her company over the next seven years, emphasizing the importance of setting goals that are challenging yet achievable. She reflects on her initial feelings of doubt and how, over time, those goals have started to feel more attainable. Doug adds to the discussion by highlighting the unique perspective on goal achievability. Getting hold of Lisa Conway-Hughes LCH Health Instagram - misslollymoney https://misslolly.com/financial-diagnosis/ Takeaways I wanted to grow this company and work really, really hard. This target can only be a big, hairy, audacious goal. It just felt bonkers actually, what we wanted to do. Two years in, it's actually starting to feel a little bit achievable. I feel I'm getting a bit more comfortable with the uncomfortable. The goal should be only 20 % achievable. Ambitious goals can drive company growth. Setting achievable targets is crucial for motivation. Leadership involves navigating uncomfortable challenges. Reflecting on progress can shift perceptions of achievability.

In the vast expanse of human understanding, there exists a peculiar phenomenon that has puzzled philosophers and scientists alike for millennia. Picture, if you will, a substrate of reality so fundamental, so pervasive, that it escapes detection precisely because it encompasses all detection itself.  The matrix—though we shall call it by this crude approximation of a name—is not unlike the electromagnetic field that surrounds a charged particle. Just as that field shapes the behavior of other particles in its vicinity, the matrix shapes the very fabric of perception and cognition. It is a self-reinforcing system of information patterns, probability cascades, and feedback loops that creates what we experience as the boundaries of the possible.  Consider the curious case of the laboratory mouse, raised from birth within walls of glass and steel. To this creature, the laboratory represents the totality of existence. The mouse develops elaborate theories about the nature of reality based entirely on the patterns it observes within its enclosure—the regular arrival of food pellets, the cycle of artificial day and night, the maze-like corridors it navigates. Yet beyond those walls lies an entirely different order of existence that the mouse cannot even conceive of, not due to lack of intelligence, but due to the systematic nature of its containment.  The matrix operates on similar principles, but with far greater sophistication. It is not a prison of walls and barriers, but rather a prison of assumptions, neural pathways, linguistic structures, and consensus reality. Each thought we think, each perception we process, each memory we form, operates within its parameters. The matrix is simultaneously the lens through which we see and the very act of seeing itself.

Episode #177: Join me, Kimberly Lovi, on an insightful journey as we explore the path to financial empowerment and personal growth in this episode of "In Studio." We'll begin by discussing the critical steps needed to expand your business and income. You'll discover the power of setting clear, specific financial goals rather than settling for vague desires. Together, we'll work backwards to assess where you currently stand and map out the steps needed to reach your desired financial future. By breaking down expenses and creating a concrete plan, we'll guide you towards achieving financial security. Next, we'll tackle the transformative shift from a scarcity mindset to one of abundance. It's essential to recognize money as a form of energy that fuels your ambitions and impacts the world around you. We'll talk about the importance of investing in your business and involving others in your vision to drive success. Letting go of limiting beliefs about money is key, and you'll learn how collaboration and financial investment in capable hands can elevate your endeavors. Finally, we'll highlight the significance of investing in personal growth and development. Drawing from my experiences with courses like Amy Porterfield's Digital Course Academy and a Harvard course on data science principles, I'll share how acquiring new skills can propel both your business and personal goals. We'll also emphasize the importance of setting ambitious goals, surrounding yourself with proactive individuals, and avoiding negativity. Plus, for those struggling with mindset barriers, I'll introduce my mindset course to help you gain clarity and overcome obstacles. As we wrap up, we'll reflect on the importance of accountability and invite you to connect and share your progress.
