If you doubt yourself when you pitch on sales calls, think words like “I'm drowning in client work” or KNOW you're undercharging but still haven't raised your rates—> BUSTED. Your money mindset needs a tune up.When I was a kid my mom made us proclaim ”I AM A MONEY MAGNET” every time we found a coin on the ground.(And if you said it sheepishly you had to go again, this time with your FULL CHEST.)It was one of the tips she learned at a millionaire-money-mindset seminar she went to. And even though she came home with a bunch of weird rules and catchphrases…I actually think it realllly helped me in my business years later?

In this special episode, I'm doing something a little different — sharing an interview I did with the brilliant Kim Kiel on her podcast, Ill Communication.Kim is a seasoned copywriter and the host of Ill Communication (that's I-L-L Communication), where she shares practical copywriting tips and soulful sales strategies for small businesses. She especially loves working with midlife women business owners — and honestly, who doesn't?In this episode, she flips the mic and puts me in the hot seat to talk about:My pivot from corporate to coaching and community-buildingWhy I chose Skool over other platforms (like Facebook or Instagram)How I'm running innovative bundles and summits with thousands of participantsMy strategy for creating low-ticket, high-value offers that actually generate real revenue✨ If you're curious about building a sustainable business in midlife — with more spaciousness, more connection, and more income — this one's for you.

Many clinicians are left wondering if their best work lies in the clinical field or the coaching/consulting arena. I've felt this dilemma myself, pondering how to balance my interests, endeavors, and the evolution of family life. I realized that I couldn't sustain multiple paths, and I made the hard decision to give up my clinical work. If you are struggling along those same lines, I hope today's show gives you insights, clarity, and encouragement. Join us to learn more!Our Featured GuestAngela Williams, LCSWAngela Williams is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Orlando, Florida. She has made the transition from clinician to coach, and she now works with other therapists who are making the same change in their lives. Angela shares her thoughts about why so many clinicians are leaving for the world of coaching, along with the biggest roadblocks that may come up on this path. She gives her best tips for overcoming those big roadblocks and recommends several books as helpful resources. WebsiteYou'll Learn:Why so many therapists are becoming coachesHow the therapy field, with its inherent regulations, contains many barriers to providing services to clients—and coaching is differentThe biggest mental roadblock for Angela in moving from clinician to coachWhy each clinician feels like the “insecure expert” and has to intentionally build up their confidenceWhy it's challenging to become an online, visible brand rather than a care providerWhat holds clinicians back the most and presents the biggest roadblocksHow a mindset coach can help us rewrite our roadblocks into our success storyHow perfectionism, fear of failure, and standards of success can prevent us from taking actionWhy money blocks and financial literacy play into our beliefs about moneyWhy the fear of success can be just as crippling as the fear of failureBooks recommended by Angela: The Big Leap by Gay Hendricks, Get Rich, Lucky Bitch by Denise Duffield-Thomas, and You Are a Badass at Making Money by Jen SinceroResources:Want to launch your online course?Check out our new membership site that's launching in January!

In this coaching episode, I'm diving deep into the concept of your "No List" - a boundary document that could save you time, energy, and money while helping you focus on what actually matters.We often identify who we are by understanding who we are not, and your No List works the same way. From saying no to coffee meetings during work hours to declining "pick your brain" requests unless people pay for your expertise, this episode will help you create clear boundaries that free you up for bigger opportunities.You'll discover:• Why boundaries don't limit you - they free you• Real examples of what might go on your No List (no more courses, no traveling for speaking gigs, no pretending to be someone you're not)• How to make your No List specific and actionable• Why saying no to the wrong things means saying yes to the right ones• The difference between successful people and really successful people (hint: it's about what they say no to)Perfect timing as we head into 2026. This isn't about being negative - it's about being intentional with your most precious resources: your time, energy, and attention. Sponsored by Vanta AI: vanta.com/mydailybusinessSign the Not a Date to Celebrate petition hereConnect with My Daily Business:Instagram: @mydailybusiness_TikTok: @mydailybusinessEmail: hello@mydailybusiness.comWebsite: mydailybusiness.comResources mentioned:Vanta AIAI Monthly Chat Group for Small Business OwnersHow to Get Your Book Published course Join our AI Chat Group for small business ownersMy Daily Business courses - mydailybusiness.com/courses Special thanks to our sponsor, Vanta AI.

This was a very long and exhausting day. I had a very hard time making money and ended up at a casino for over 12 hours today. To top it off, on the way home I ended up in a giant snow storm and it took an extra four plus hours to get home.

Think big city rentals are too expensive or impossible to cash flow? Think again. Co-living is quietly changing the game for real estate investors, letting them maximize income from homes that might otherwise sit empty. In this episode, we break down the strategy that takes a standard single-family home earning $1,600/month and turns it into $4,700/month through smart layout changes, proper tenant screening, and strategic management. You'll hear about the challenges, wins, and real-world tips that make this approach both practical and profitable - even for investors who thought the big city market was out of reach. Whether you're looking for ways to increase cash flow, create affordable housing, or just rethink your rental strategy, this episode is packed with insights and behind-the-scenes details you won't find anywhere else.

From diaspora dreams to land disputes: Why Ghana's real estate market creates millionaires and bankrupts dreamers - and the brutal truth about buying property in Africa's hottest investment destination. In this explosive episode of Konnected Minds, two battle-tested real estate experts dismantle the fantasy keeping diaspora Africans broke and locals trapped in rental cycles. This isn't motivational property talk - it's a systematic breakdown of why the average Ghanaian earning 800 cedis monthly can still own property, why land ownership without proper testing is financial suicide, and why the smartest investors are pooling resources instead of chasing individual ownership dreams that take 15 years to materialize.

Inside the Mind of a Compulsive Gambler with Louis Ruggiero | The Hopeaholics PodcastIn this gripping episode of The Hopeaholics Podcast, Louis Ruggiero lays everything on the table as he shares his unbelievable journey through addiction, gambling, destruction, and redemption. From the moment he first sat at a blackjack table at just 15 years old and turned $200 into $9,000, Louis became hooked on the rush—a rush that would ultimately cost him over $10.2 million, countless relationships, and nearly his life. He opens up about his battles with opioids, alcohol, and gambling, his public downfall after a headline-making arrest in New York City, and the years of chaos that followed as he spiraled deeper into addiction while trying to hold onto a facade of success. Louis paints a vivid picture of the highs of Vegas suites, private jets, and massive wins, followed by the devastating lows of broken promises, debt, and suicidal thoughts. Yet through all the pain, he found redemption in recovery—turning to Gamblers Anonymous, Alcoholics Anonymous, and the 12-step program to rebuild not only his sobriety but his sense of purpose. Now, nearly a year sober from gambling and years clean from drugs and alcohol, Louis is using his platform and his podcast Nothing's Off the Table to shine a light on the realities of addiction and the hope found in recovery. His story is brutally honest, deeply human, and serves as a reminder that no matter how far you fall, it's never too late to change, heal, and rise again.#thehopeaholics  #redemption #recovery #AlcoholAddiction #AddictionRecovery #wedorecover #SobrietyJourney #MyStory #Hope #wedorecover #treatmentcenter #natalieevamarieJoin our patreon to get access to an EXTRA EPISODE every week of ‘Off the Record', exclusive content, a thriving recovery community, and opportunities to be featured on the podcast. https://patreon.com/TheHopeaholics Go to www.Wolfpak.com today and support our sponsors.

In this week's minisode of The Floral CEO, Jeni dives into a word that makes many creatives cringe — profit. For too long, the floral industry has treated profit like a dirty word. We've been told that doing something we love and making money from it can't coexist. But that couldn't be further from the truth.Jeni shares why it's time to unlearn the mindset that “busy equals successful” and start building floral businesses that are sustainable, profitable, and joy-giving. She opens up about how shifting her focus toward profit created more freedom in her business — fewer weddings, higher margins, and more creativity.You'll walk away from this episode with a fresh perspective on money, mindset, and the true purpose of profit in your floral business.
