Last Friday I announced the Friday Workbox® and all related work products will only be available for purchase till December 31st or while supplies last. But I don't think I explained it very well so I wanted to record this episode to address concerns and reiterate what is going on at Organize 365®.  No One is Going Anywhere… Please do not worry, no one is getting laid off. No one who works at Organize 365® is going anywhere. Steph who runs the Friday Workbox will still be here. Stephanie, my Chief of Staff and Anna are also still here. They are doing more behind the scenes things. But no one is going anywhere, we're just all going in a new direction.  Got Distracted For about a year and a half I have been trying to support both home and work organization.  You see, as an organizer, I get people going in the right direction and then I want to follow them into that thing that they discovered they are good at. But in doing that I now see that I am leaving people behind. They're ready to get off the declutter cycle only to find me miles ahead helping people in work areas. I started Organize 365® because I feel like I am called to help women organize their homes and then they are forced to struggle with what they are uniquely created to do. I want that evolution back. Someone gets decluttered. I help them to get organized and productive. Then they are ready to fly the nest to a coach, start a business, get into a hobby, whatever their next chapter is. I'm just refocusing more narrowly on the home. And this way too there is one clear message for you to share to others who need to get organized. Silver Lining The silver lining in all of this is great pricing now till December 31st or while supplies last. 50% off all work related products excluding the Income and Expense Planner. You will still get the full course, the community, and workbooks.  In 2026, the courses will simply move to legacy status. You will still have the community to support you, but there will no longer be someone from Organize 365® leading the community or holding co-working time.  And if you are in need of a certified organizer or still want to get certification, it's not too late. The certified organizers for business and the Teacher workbox will be available till December. If you want to get certification or add certification, you can still purchase those. I really tried to explain, in this episode, what the pre-requisites are for adding certifications and how long each one takes. If you want to get inventory, it's deeply discounted for our certified organizers.  It's been tough to make the decision to discontinue products that are lucrative to the business and that the community loves so much. But it is time for me to go back to center and focus on that initial transformation I used to get so much feedback about. Thank you so much for all your encouraging words in this transition. After reading so many reactions/responses I feel confident in this decision.  I encourage you to listen to episode 680 (re-airing right after this one) again for an extended explanation of all of this and what the future looks like for the current work related products, services, and communities in 2026. There are also links to all the products in episode 680. And if you are still left with questions feel free to email customer service at Customerservice@organize365.com.

If you lost everything today (contacts, cash, business, etc), what will you do to rebuild back your income? Well, if I literally had absolutely no money at all, like not even enough to run ads, I would go door-to-door to businesses or just get them on the phone, really. Yeah, I'd get them on the phone. I'm assuming I at least have a phone...

Ever wondered how someone could make half their annual photography income in just one week? That's exactly what happened to Megan O'Hare when she ran her first strategic Black Friday promotion.In this episode, I'm sitting down with Megan O'Hare, the powerhouse behind The Photo Project—a course that teaches moms how to organize their digital photo chaos. We're diving deep into how Megan went from making around $7,000 on her first attempt at a Black Friday sale to crushing it with $51,000 the following year using my Black Friday in a Box strategy. She's pulling back the curtain on exactly how she structures her promotions, why her done-for-you service sells out twice a year, and how she's built a business model that allows her to barely touch social media while still growing her email list and revenue consistently.This conversation is packed with strategy gold, including why Megan limits her high-ticket one-to-one offers to just two sale periods per year, how she's made certain products available ONLY during Black Friday (talk about built-in urgency!), and why 95% of her done-for-you clients are people who already bought her course but decided they'd rather just have her do it.What you'll learn:How Megan went from $7K to $51K in Black Friday sales by implementing a strategic promotion planThe exact structure of her 5-day Black Friday sale and why limiting availability creates massive demandWhy her done-for-you service clients are almost always previous course buyers (and what that means for YOUR business model)How she runs a summer sale using the same Black Friday strategy for an additional revenue boostHer approach to making certain products available ONLY during promotional periods to drive urgencyWhy lead generation ads are her "cost of doing business" and how she thinks about ROI differentlyThe truth about her email marketing strategy (spoiler: it's not perfect, and that's okay)How she's structured pricing for her done-for-you service to avoid awkward money conversationsResources Mentioned in this episode:Black Friday in a Box: https://gemmabonhamcarter.com/black-friday The Photo Project: https://thephotoproject.co/ Megan O'Hare on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/oharephotos/ Your Next Steps:Work with Me: https://www.gemmabonhamcarter.com/programsWhat I Use to Run My 7-Figure Business: https://gemmabonhamcarter.com/toolsConnect on Social: https://www.instagram.com/gemma.bonhamcarter Support the show

Don swats a studio bug, then swats down the idea of dividend-driven retirement portfolios. Drawing on Jason Zweig's interview with Richard Thaler, they explain why retirees should focus on total return—spending from a diversified portfolio rather than chasing yield. They hit Robinhood's profit model, bid-ask spreads, and the need for automatic-enrollment retirement plans. A listener call leads to a discussion of Social Security timing, debt-free retirement, and (yes) hodgepodge-itis—Don's term for chaotic portfolios.

Gold has been surging this year—but what's behind the rise, and what should investors keep in mind before buying in?Precious metals, such as gold and silver, have long fascinated investors, particularly in times of economic uncertainty. But are they wise investments for today? If so, how should we approach them? Mark Biller joins us today to talk about investing in precious metals.Mark Biller is Executive Editor and Senior Portfolio Manager at Sound Mind Investing, an underwriter of Faith & Finance. The Surge in Gold and SilverGold's remarkable rise has captured headlines again, now up over $4,000 an ounce—up from about $2,600 at the start of 2025. That's a 50% gain this year on top of last year's 26% surge. Silver has jumped even higher, up roughly 60%, while gold mining stocks have more than doubled.What's behind this stunning rally? Several key forces are at play. Global central banks have been buying gold aggressively, a trend that accelerated after the U.S. froze Russia's dollar reserves in 2022. This event shook confidence in the U.S. dollar as a neutral reserve currency. Add in fears of currency debasement stemming from massive government spending since the COVID pandemic, and gold suddenly looks like a safer store of value.As investors around the world look for stability, gold—the “4,000-year-old alternative currency”—is once again shining.To understand today's prices, it helps to look at history. Adjusted for inflation, gold recently surpassed its all-time high from January 1980. Silver, meanwhile, is nearing $50 an ounce—the peak it hit in both 1980 and 2011—but still lags behind those highs when adjusted for inflation.These cycles remind investors that precious metals often move in waves—soaring during manias, then enduring long pullbacks. After its 1980 peak, silver prices dropped nearly 90%; after 2011, they fell by about 70%. Understanding those cycles helps set realistic expectations and temper “gold rush” enthusiasm.Gold as a Store of ValueUnlike stocks or bonds, gold doesn't produce income or dividends. That makes it tricky to value—but also unique. It's not a productive asset; it's a preservative one.For centuries, an ounce of gold could buy a fine men's suit. The same holds true today, illustrating its enduring purchasing power. Gold's real role isn't to generate profit—it's to store value when currencies lose theirs.Viewed this way, gold functions as an alternative currency to the world's paper money systems. As inflation rises and confidence in traditional currencies wavers, gold's relative stability stands out.Gold's appeal intensifies during uncertainty. Whether it's inflation, war, or financial instability, investors turn to gold as a hedge. While Americans rarely consider regime changes, history is filled with nations where financial systems collapsed, and gold helped preserve wealth across transitions.Even in less dramatic times, when governments respond to crises by printing more money, gold tends to perform well. As fear increases, so does the appetite for precious metals.Gold, Silver, and Mining Stocks: Knowing the DifferenceEach part of the precious metals market serves a different role:Gold is the foundation—a global monetary metal and store of value. It's what central banks buy, and it tends to be more stable.Silver is both a monetary and an industrial metal. Its demand fluctuates more with the economy, primarily due to uses in electronics and solar panels. That makes it more volatile—but also more accessible to smaller investors.Mining Stocks are speculative. While they can surge when gold prices rise, they're also risky. Over the long term, mining stocks have underperformed, so investors should approach them with caution.How to Invest Wisely in Precious MetalsWe recommend a balanced approach: Physical gold and silver provide direct ownership and long-term stability. However, storage and security are concerns, so it's best to keep this allocation small—around 5% of your portfolio.ETFs (Exchange-Traded Funds) offer convenience and liquidity.

It's well built but always needs work. Thankfully, I can handle many of the repairs myself, as I come from a family of electricians and real estate professionals. The issue is, I can't seem to deduct much of what I do on my taxes, even though I spend a lot of time maintaining the property. I also sometimes barter with family and friends, helping them with projects in exchange for their help. Is there a legal way for me to charge for some of my time or count this work toward deductions?I've got about $7,000 to $8,000 in credit card debt, and I'll be leaving my job soon. I have a 401(k) with a balance similar to mine, and I know that taking it out early means incurring taxes and penalties. Would it make sense to cash out my 401(k) to pay off my credit cards, or would you recommend an alternative approach?Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly Magazine (Become a FaithFi Partner)Sound Mind Investing (SMI)Inflation History: The Rise and Fall of the U.S. Dollar (Free Report by Sound Mind Investing)Christian Credit CounselorsWisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on MoneyLook At The Sparrows: A 21-Day Devotional on Financial Fear and AnxietyRich Toward God: A Study on the Parable of the Rich FoolFind a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA) or Certified Christian Financial Counselor (CertCFC)FaithFi App Remember, you can call in to ask your questions most days at (800) 525-7000.

"Too little too late", that's what we're hearing from some farmers who've already ploughed up and planted fields that were being farmed for nature. They say this is because the government took too long to come up with an extension to their environmental funding. A House of Lords Committee says the Windsor Framework, the post-Brexit agreement between the UK and EU that's meant to simplify trade between Great Britain and Northern Ireland, is "overwhelmingly complex". Powys Council has just closed a consultation on plans for a new farm policy, which includes the possibility of selling some of its council owned farms. The Council says incomes are too low and maintenance costs too high on some of its farms, but local council farm tenants hope farming will remain a key part of council plans. Presented by Caz Graham and produced by Beatrice Fenton.

How much money do you need to invest to retire with real estate? We did the math, and it's not as much as you'd think. In fact, in some markets, even with a small amount of disposable income, you could become financially free in just five years. We're asked about retiring with rentals so often that we're providing an in-depth answer in today's show. You asked, Dave and Henry are answering. Today, we're grabbing questions directly from the BiggerPockets Forums and shooting them straight at two of the most trusted real estate investors in the industry. One beginner wants to know how he can achieve financial independence in just five to ten years with rental properties. He has $3,000/month to invest, but will that be enough? Another rookie investor is considering the ultimate real estate portfolio to build: do you start with a single-family home and then move on to multifamily, or do something completely different? Dave and Henry both give a take that you might not expect.  To end, we have a double debate: cash flow vs. appreciation (and which makes you richer) and existing vs. new-build rental properties (is a higher price worth fewer headaches?). Want to build wealth with real estate? Today's answers might surprise you.  In This Episode We Cover How much do you need to invest to reach financial freedom with rentals? What are the best rental properties for beginners? How to find the perfect fit for your situation Why, if you want to build wealth, you need to stop caring so much about cash flow  The low-headache rental property: are new construction rentals really worth the cost?  Why Dave is upset he hasn't won the Pulitzer Prize yet  And So Much More!

Could a reverse mortgage be a widow's best friend?Since women typically outlive men, many will one day carry the financial load alone. Today, Harlan Accola joins us to explain how reverse mortgages have changed and why they can offer widows stability, dignity, and confidence for the years ahead.Harlan Accola is the National Reverse Mortgage Director at Movement Mortgage, an underwriter of Faith and Finance. He is also the author of Home Equity and Reverse Mortgages: The Cinderella of the Baby Boomer Retirement.The Longevity ChallengeMany people still carry outdated assumptions about reverse mortgages. Some believe they're risky or predatory—especially for widows. However, over the years, these products have undergone significant evolution, incorporating new safeguards that make them a secure and compassionate option for many older adults, particularly surviving spouses.Women tend to outlive their husbands, often by several years. That creates what financial professionals call longevity risk—the challenge of stretching resources over a longer life. Couples frequently plan their finances assuming they'll live out retirement together, but the reality is that many widows face 2–10 years of life on their own, often with reduced income.For many, a reverse mortgage can bridge that gap. By allowing homeowners age 62 and older to access the equity in their homes without monthly payments, it provides a steady income—especially for those who want to remain in their homes.The reputation of reverse mortgages has improved dramatically since the early days. When the FHA introduced the program in 1988, some borrowers made unwise choices—like removing their spouse from the home title—which left surviving spouses vulnerable.Thankfully, that changed in 2013. Federal law now requires that both spouses be listed on the loan and protected by it. This safeguard ensures that a widow can remain in her home for as long as she wishes, without fear of foreclosure or forced sale.Dignity and Security for the Years AheadWhen a husband passes, household income often drops by around 40%. If a traditional mortgage payment remains, that financial burden can force a widow to sell her home. A reverse mortgage eliminates that risk by converting home equity into income—allowing her to stay in the place she loves, surrounded by memories, with dignity and financial stability.For widows, that security is invaluable. It turns a house into a lasting home, ensuring that the twilight years can be lived not in fear, but in peace.To learn more about whether a reverse mortgage could benefit your situation, visit Movement.com/Faith.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I'm trying to find information about a Christian savings and loan, but I haven't been able to get the contact details. Can you point me in the right direction?I don't feel like I have enough savings to handle a real emergency. I'm working both full-time and part-time jobs just to keep up with bills, plus I'm trying to pay off student loans and credit cards. I feel stretched thin and don't know what to do next.I called before about my advisor and wanted to give you an update. Now I have a question: I have a 401(k), a traditional IRA, and a Roth IRA—each with about $100,000. When I retire, do I need to withdraw from one before the others, or is there a better strategy for taking distributions?I recently changed jobs and left my 401(k) with my former employer, which is now closing its doors. Should I roll that money into my new job's plan or transfer it elsewhere? I'm not very familiar with managing investments myself.I currently have a moderate growth account with a steady income, but I'm considering withdrawing the funds. Would CDs be a safe place to move that money, or do you have other suggestions?I need help finding affordable health insurance on a limited income. I have some past health issues, and I'm worried about being penalized.

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.

In this episode, Greg revisits Warren Buffett's timeless wisdom to uncover who's “swimming naked” in today's market. Drawing on Rob Arnott and Edward McQuarrie's recent CFA research on risk and investor psychology, he explains how both fear of loss and fear of missing out drive market behavior far more than models admit. Greg dissects several headline-grabbing products, from “high income” S&P 500 ETFs and 77% yielding Nvidia options funds to the Dual Directional Buffer ETF and the “Magnificent Seven Snowball,” revealing how they offer the illusion of safety or income while eroding long-term returns. He closes with a Buffett-style case study on Occidental Petroleum and Berkshire Hathaway's recent deal, underscoring the power of simple, steady cash flow over engineered complexity.As Leonardo da Vinci said, “Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication,” and it is also one of the surest ways to compound wealth. Topics Covered[00:00:41] – Who's swimming naked?

#291 This episode begins with a brief tribute to our friends at Perform Better, following the heartbreaking loss of team member Rob Milani. Rob embodied warmth, generosity, and family-first values — a reminder of what truly matters. From there, Billy shares three eye-opening statistics every gym owner should know. These numbers aren't meant to discourage. They're meant to wake us up to the power of better financial habits and a stronger plan. In this episode: The shocking percentage of gym owners who can't handle a $1,000 emergency Why income doesn't always equal wealth and what to do about it The real reason 80% of gyms don't make it through the first year Three simple actions to break free from these statistics and start winning financially Key takeaway: Money isn't the goal. I's the tool that helps you build a business and life that serve what matters most.

When someone asks whether a certain degree is “worth it,” there's finally some data to answer that. We analyzed debt-to-income ratios across dozens of professions from our survey of over 8,000 high-income professionals, and the results tell a pretty clear story about who's managing student debt well — and who's getting squeezed. I'll also share a few thoughts on what these numbers mean in real life, like how income, housing costs, and lifestyle choices play into long-term financial outcomes. Key moments: (01:56) Professions with the lowest debt-to-income ratios and why practicality beats prestige (05:37) The hidden stress gap between generalists and specialists in healthcare and dentistry (09:05)  Why certain degree programs may be setting students up to fail financially (13:06) Who's building the most wealth relative to income (14:47) Spending patterns that separate comfortable from stressed-out professionals   Like the show?

[REBROADCAST from Sept. 11, 2025] When you're in a close relationship with someone, navigating income disparities can be tricky. Author and financial educator Farnoosh Torabi joins us to discuss how to start the conversation and figure out what makes sense -- and how to come up with a plan.*This segment is guest-hosted by David Furst.

I am SO pumped to share this episode with you because it's proof that the strategies I teach actually work in the real world.My student Stephanie Kase just pulled back the curtain on how she made $20,013 during Black Friday 2024 using my Black Friday in a Box strategy. And she documented EVERYTHING.We're talking about a woman who doubled her previous year's Black Friday results without massive audience growth. She went from making her typical $4-6K flash sales to hitting a goal that honestly seemed ambitious when she set it.What I love most about Stephanie's approach is that she didn't just follow my strategy blindly - she adapted it, tested it, and made it work for her business. She ran five days of deals, used strategic upsells, and even threw in some warm audience Facebook ads that generated a 13.4x return on ad spend.This isn't just about the numbers though. Stephanie breaks down exactly what worked, what didn't, and what she's changing for next year. She's sharing the behind-the-scenes reality of running a successful Black Friday campaign, including the 500 people who unsubscribed (and why she's totally fine with that).Grab Black Friday in a Box while it's on SALE: https://gemmabonhamcarter.com/black-fridayWhat you'll learn:The exact 5-day deal structure that generated over $20K in salesHow strategic upsells and order bumps added $4,100 to her revenueWhy running ads to warm audiences only resulted in 13.4x return on ad spendThe specific email timing strategy that worked (and what didn't)Her biggest mistakes and what she's doing differently in 2025The email subject lines that got the highest open rates during Black Friday weekHow she prepared her audience weeks in advance with a Black Friday catalogThe backend technical issues you need to avoid when running daily dealsResources Mentioned in this Episode:Black Friday in a Box: https://gemmabonhamcarter.com/black-fridayStephanie's breakdown and free Black Friday debrief document here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OgJSgXeShB4Your Next Steps:Work with Me: https://www.gemmabonhamcarter.com/programsWhat I Use to Run My 7-Figure Business: https://gemmabonhamcarter.com/toolsConnect on Social: https://www.instagram.com/gemma.bonhamcarter Support the show

One of the biggest misconceptions in business is believing that more automatically means more money. More offers, more funnels, more launches, more repurposing—surely that will lead to more income, right? Wrong. In reality, overcomplicating your business often keeps you stuck, scattered, and inconsistent.   In this special training, I'm breaking down why simplicity is the key to building a business that actually scales. You'll learn how to avoid the trap of endless offers, streamline what you're doing, and focus on the things that bring real results. The truth is, you don't need hundreds of offers or constant launches to make consistent income.   If you've been feeling overwhelmed and overextended, this episode will show you why simplicity sells and scales—and how to structure your business so you can finally see consistent growth and freedom. I pray this blesses you!     Ready to Make Consistent Income From a Podcast?  Join my 5-Day Profitable Podcast Bootcamp! I'll show you how to create a podcast that makes steady income on autopilot—without relying on social media.
