Welcome to another thought-provoking episode of the Building Your Money Machine Show! Today, I'm shining a spotlight on a reality most people don't want to talk about: the fact that earning more money doesn't automatically make you feel rich or free. In fact, more than half of households making over $100,000 a year are still living paycheck to paycheck. If you've ever wondered why hitting a higher income doesn't bring lasting peace or satisfaction—and sometimes even leads to more anxiety—this episode is for you.I share why the feeling of being rich is rarely about the numbers in your bank account, but much more about psychology, behavior, and clarity. Drawing from my decades as a CPA, entrepreneur, and money mentor, I walk you through the science of happiness and the “hedonic treadmill,” how our brains adapt to new income levels, and why most financial struggles are rooted in emotions—not math.We'll get real about lifestyle creep, emotional spending, and the sneaky ways comparison culture fuels our financial stress. I lay out actionable steps to help you break out of the “never enough” cycle, define your own finish line, and create a results-driven plan that aligns with your values.Today's episode isn't just about theory—it's about empowerment. My hope is that you'll walk away ready to live a life by choice, not by default.IN TODAY'S EPISODE, I DISCUSS:Why more income alone won't make you feel rich—and the surprising data behind itThe “hedonic treadmill” and how your brain turns financial breakthroughs into baselinesLifestyle creep: how subtle upgrades can silently steal your raisesThe power of emotional spending—stress, reward, comparison, and moreHow social comparison and the hunt for external validation undermine your financial well-beingActionable steps to track the real triggers behind your spendingWhy “future you” won't magically fix your money habits, and the myth of “I'll save more when I earn more”The importance of defining what “enough” means to you—in dollars and in lifeHow to pivot from a demand-driven to a choice-driven life with a real financial planWhy money is a tool—not the source—of fulfillment and peaceRECOMMENDED EPISODES FOR YOUIf you liked this episode, click here to enjoy these and more:https://melabraham.com/show/9 Subtle Behaviors That Quietly Signal You're Upper ClassThe Psychology of People Who Have $1M Net WorthThe Silent Rules of the Financial System That Keep You Poor7 Assets Rich People Never Buy And The Poor Always DoHow Much Money Do You Actually Need to Be Rich in 2026RECOMMENDED VIDEOS FOR YOU If you liked this video, you'll love these ones:9 Subtle Behaviors That Quietly Signal You're Upper Class: https://youtu.be/dbdUDwElYY0The Psychology of People Who Have $1M Net Worth: https://youtu.be/-65r-OsaHMEThe Silent Rules of the Financial System That Keep You Poor: https://youtu.be/akr5474dwps7 Assets Rich People Never Buy And The Poor Always Do: https://youtu.be/A9f-IgNKU8wORDER MY NEW USA TODAY BESTSELLING BOOK:Building Your Money Machine: How to Get Your Money to Work Harder For You Than You Did For It!The key to building the life you desire and deserve is to build your Money Machine—a powerful system designed to generate income that's no longer tied to your work or efforts.

Ever catch yourself thinking, "Why am I like this?" Too much. Too quiet. Too emotional. Too in your head. What if the thing you criticize yourself for most… isn't a flaw at all? In this episode, I unpack a powerful reframe that challenges the way we try to "fix" ourselves. Because what if your so-called weakness is actually a strength that's just been turned up too high? If you've ever called yourself an overthinker, a people-pleaser, disorganized, shy, or "too much"—and felt stuck in shame because of it—this one will hit close to home. No fluffy self-love. No personality overhaul. Just a simple shift that brings clarity, balance, and relief. Less "What's wrong with me?" More "How do I work with who I already am?" Press play if you're ready for self-improvement without self-loathing. Ready to stop self sabotaging? I've got limited one-on-one coaching spots opening up where we dig into your specific patterns and create practical strategies that actually work for you.

I talk about why creativity now belongs in every business (yes, even the “dry” ones), and why originality in your voice and messaging matters more than ever. This isn't about chasing trends or letting AI write your soul out of your copy, it's about building offers that sound like you, feel human, and stand out because they're layered with story, theme, and personality. If you've been playing it safe, this episode will gently nudge you to be braver. We also dig into customer lifetime value, because keeping great clients is far easier than constantly chasing new ones. I'll walk you through why retention, experience, and thoughtful touchpoints across the whole journey are becoming non-negotiable if you want word-of-mouth, repeat work, and real loyalty. This is about creating a world your clients want to stay inside, not just a one-and-done service. And finally, I'm calling you to double down. One revenue-driving, reputation-building headliner offer. Less creating, more committing. Alongside that, becoming obsessed with feedback, real, honest data that helps you evolve instead of guessing. If 2026 is your year to simplify, specialise, and go all-in on what works, this episode will set the tone. What You'll Learn in This EpisodeWhy offers need to become creative experiences, not just professional servicesHow originality in your voice and copy helps you stand out in a noisy marketWhy focusing on customer lifetime value beats chasing new leadsThe power of doubling down on one headliner offer instead of creating moreHow feedback (direct and anonymous) becomes your most valuable growth data"Offers are no longer deliverables for sale. They're branded experiences and the stakes are higher now." Step into my festival world...
After a brief pause at the end of the year, Dr. Rachaele Carver returns with a powerful solo episode to open 2026, inviting listeners to rethink the way we approach change, healing, and personal growth.Instead of setting New Year's resolutions that often fade by February, this episode explores a deeper and more sustainable framework: living in alignment with your values.Dr. Carver unpacks why so many goals fail when they are driven by “shoulds” rather than meaning, and how shifting toward values-based living can transform not only oral health, but energy, confidence, relationships, and overall well-being.This conversation blends personal stories, clinical insight, and reflective questions to help listeners begin the year with clarity, compassion, and intention.In this episode, Dr. Carver discusses:Why traditional New Year's resolutions rarely stickThe difference between goals and values, and why values matter moreHow living out of alignment drains energy and fuels burnoutThe connection between values, nervous system regulation, and healthHow thoughts become beliefs, and beliefs shape realityParenting, anxiety, and helping children live in their own valuesRecognizing physical and emotional signals from the body as guidanceQuestions to help identify your core valuesSigns you may be living out of alignmentHow values-based living improves decision-making, boundaries, and fulfillmentWhy integrity and empowered teaching are central themes in Dr. Carver's life and practiceSetting intentions for the year ahead through alignment rather than pressureResources mentioned:Firefly Therapy AustinDr. John Demartini's Values Assessment (drdemartini.com/values)Podcast: Energized with Dr. MarizaClosing reflection:Healing doesn't come from pushing harder or chasing outcomes. It comes from slowing down, listening deeply, and allowing our actions to flow from what truly matters.When we live in our values, the body responds. And everything we want begins to unfold naturally.Thank you for being part of The Root of the Matter. Here's to a grounded, aligned, and nourishing year ahead.
2025 wasn't a punishment year — it was a preparation year.In this episode of Spiritual Shit, I break down why so many people felt cracked open, exhausted, and stripped of old identities in 2025 — and why that breakdown was necessary for what comes next.This year forced a shedding: people-pleasing, fear of being judged, silencing yourself to belong, and waiting for permission to speak. Not because you were doing it wrong — but because the version of you that hides can't carry the light you're meant to bring forward.We talk about:Why fear of being seen is the biggest block to intuitionHow your external voice and inner voice are directly connectedWhy intuition doesn't get louder when you think more — but when you express moreHow losing approval rewires self-trustWhy the people who struggled most in 2025 are often the ones meant to lead, create, speak, and illuminate nextThis episode is for anyone who feels like they've stopped caring what others think — not because they're numb, but because something truer is finally emerging.Work with me, your host, here: Thelovelyalea.comOrder MEANINGFUL MANIFESTATION thelovelyalea.com/bookGet spiritual 1-on-1 Coaching thelovelyalea.com/servicesFollow me on Instagram instagram.com/thelovelyalea ( Remember I will never DM you for readings - watch out for Scammers ! )

#364: On this solo episode, Emily Elizabeth dives into a topic that she has been asked about a lot, especially around having the self-confidence to make your own decisions and trust your own judgment. Why is this difficult for some of us?Often times, it's because we've leaned on our parents, external opinions, or what society says we "should or shouldn't" do too much. And in that process, we forget that we also can learn how to understand what we want, need, and what feels right for us as the actual person living our life.What you will learn:A simple framework to use when making decisions and the balance between logic and intuitionPersonal examples of how Emily has used this framework in her decisions from ending a relationship, moving from LA to NYC, quitting her corporate job, transferring universities, and moreHow to become more confident in trusting yourself and your own judgmentWhy it's easier the earlier you start leaning into your own desires and interests in life, rather than what your parents or society wants from youBILT Credit Card Info (Pay Rent and Earn Points):https://bilt.page/r/HQ06-ZV7OReceive weekly personal insights from Emily's email newsletter and subscribe hereWatch Full Episodes on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@whatfulfillsyou/videosENJOY 10% OFF THE WHAT FULFILLS YOU?

In this week's episode of Your Drone Questions. Answered, host Chris Breedlove sits down with Stefan Hrabar of Emesent to unpack one of the most important emerging technologies in the drone world: SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping).What exactly is SLAM? How does SLAM LiDAR differ from traditional LiDAR systems? Can SLAM work without GPS? And—most importantly—how can drone pilots, mapping professionals, and service providers actually use SLAM-based payloads in real-life missions?Stefan talks about:His robotics and autonomy background—from early USC drone research to global deploymentsHow SLAM evolved inside Australia's CSIRO labsThe origins of Emesent and the development of the Hovermap systemThe difference between visual SLAM, LiDAR SLAM, and mixed-sensor approachesWhy SLAM is becoming essential for GPS-denied environmentsReal-world use cases: underground mining, bridge inspections, cell towers, indoor scans, stockpiles, and moreHow modern SLAM payloads integrate with platforms like the Freefly Astro and DJI enterprise dronesNew capabilities such as autonomous exploration, waypoint-based scanning, and constrained SLAM with RTK or control points

I see three major mistakes that get made all the time among Nonprofit leaders when they're engaging decisionmakers. These mistakes will invariably cost you influence and results, especially funding results. Now more than ever, especially in this environment, you need both your existing funders and potential funders to be investing in your work at the highest level. But lately, when you go to talk to elected officials or government agency people or foundations, a lot of times you hear things like, well, there's not really any money right now. We can't afford it. It's not the right time. And you start to feel like all the stuff you came to tell them that explains why they need to invest is falling on deaf ears. They listen politely enough, but you can feel the resistance. And every time you have one of these conversations, your frustration goes up another notch, and your worry level goes up another notch too. 'Cause if we can't break through with these people, if we can't get them to get it, where's the money gonna come from? And then what? It's tempting to write off those decisionmakers or get mad at them. But if we really want their investment, we have to find a way in. If they're not getting the most essential pieces of what you do and the problem you solve, and the value that solution has, the impact that it makes, and the level of investment that is necessary in order to buy that impact. If they're not getting all of that, and not feeling motivated to find a way to make that investment. Then somewhere your messaging and engagement are not doing as good a job for you as they could. Chances are you may be making one or more of three very common and costly mistakes. In this episode, we share:Why most introductions create distance and disengagementHow to change up your introduction to pull decisonmakers in and make them want to know moreHow to weave points of alignment and relevance throughout the conversation to keep the decisionmaker investedThe critical reframe you must make to counter decisonmakers' claims of “there's not enough money”The secret to engaging a decisionmaker around the problems they're most concerned aboutThe most common erroneous assumption we make about why a decisionmaker's not “getting it,” and how that hurts usThe times when we're most vulnerable to the biggest engagement pitfalls, and how to stay alert to those Ready to take your messaging and engagement skills to the next level?

Do you ever feel like you're just checking things off a list instead of truly living? That might be a sign you're caught in the productivity trap–the constant cycle of achievement without connection that only leads to burnout.When you think about checking boxes and meeting goals, do you feel the exhaustion mixed with that spark of excitement? As achievers and ambitious souls, we can bring meaning and creativity to our goals, but that same drive can easily turn into an addiction to achievement. In this episode, I share a nuanced view of productivity and how to understand that achievement isn't strictly good or bad. You can continue to achieve and be productive from a place of healthiness and wholeness, rather than exhaustion and that emptiness.Escaping the productivity trap isn't about doing less. It's about doing from a different state. Maybe a shorter task list is part of the solution, but true life alignment happens when your actions come from creativity and growth. Healthy productivity means shifting from a hustle-driven, adrenaline-fed way of producing to a more aligned, grounded, and truly fulfilling way of creating results.So ask yourself: What will be different when you can be more connected with who you are and your values? When your actions are guided by meaning, creativity, and the expansion of self, you become a stronger, brighter presence in the world.What you'll learnHow to celebrate your achievement instead of constantly chasing moreA personal story about how my addiction to achievement began alongside my desire for moreHow to recognize when your success starts to define your worthThe biological reason behind why we get stuck in the productivity trapHow self-connection and life alignment help you guide your actions with meaning rather than pressureJoin me on October 30th, 2025 for a live workshop on the productivity trap. If you feel burned out and exhausted, like you're always doing but it's never enough, or that something is missing and you're not in alignment, this is for you.

We live in an age where truth twists into confusion, opinion drowns out data, and it's increasingly difficult to figure out whose expertise we can trust.Where did our mistrust in expertise come from? Its roots stretch back to deliberate misinformation campaigns beginning in the 1950s spread by the likes of Big Tobacco, Big Oil, and conservative church movements. Then social media poured gasoline on the fire, accelerating the spread of misinformation and making sowing division highly profitable.Misinformation campaigns take advantage of our brains' natural tendency to protect the familiar and mistrust outgroups. And they capitalize on the very real betrayals people have experienced at the hands of corporations, governments, schools, and healthcare systems.Our challenge now isn't just knowing the facts, it's interrogating our own beliefs, asking where our evidence comes from, and resisting the pull of certainty. As leaders, we need to discern who we give our attention to, practice critical thinking, resist manufactured controversy, and platform voices committed to both truth and connection.Today's guest is a neuroscientist and author of Why Brains Need Friends, who works to make science accessible, relational, and rooted in respect. He doesn't focus on winning arguments or shaming people into submission. He focuses on bridging divides, building trust, and reminding us that our brains–and our lives–are wired for connection.Ben Rein, PhD is an award-winning neuroscientist and science communicator. He serves as the Chief Science Officer of the Mind Science Foundation, an Adjunct Lecturer at Stanford University, and a Clinical Assistant Professor at SUNY Buffalo. He has published over 20 peer-reviewed papers on the neuroscience of social behavior, and is the author of Why Brains Need Friends: The Neuroscience of Social Connection. In addition, Rein educates an audience of more than 1 million social media followers and has been featured on outlets including Entertainment Tonight, Good Morning America and StarTalk with Neil DeGrasse Tyson. He has received awards for his science communication from the National Academies of Science, Engineering, and Medicine, the Society for Neuroscience, and elsewhere.Listen to the full episode to hear:How an especially vivid nightmare redirected Ben's path to neuroscienceWhy the division and isolation of modern life is so bad for our brains and overall healthHow engaging with strangers isn't as awkward as we often think it is, and why we should do it moreHow small social interactions build our sense of belonging, community, and wellbeingWhy we need to recognize and then override our gut reactions to those we perceive as belonging to outgroupsHow social media sound bites vastly oversimplify the complex and unknown systems in our brainsWhy Ben's primary mission to to help people understand the value of looking to data and evidence rather than personalities and experiencesWhy we all have to get better at fact-checking and questioning why we're ready to believe somethingLearn more about Dr. Ben Rein:WebsiteInstagram: @dr.benreinWhy Brains Need Friends: The Neuroscience of Social ConnectionLearn more about Rebecca:rebeccaching.comWork With RebeccaThe Unburdened Leader on SubstackSign up for the weekly Unburdened Leader EmailResources:Golden Holocaust: Origins of the Cigarette Catastrophe and the Case for Abolition, Robert N Proctor"Assessing ExxonMobil's climate change communications (1977–2014),” Geoffrey Supran and Naomi Oreskes, 2017 Environmental Research Letters 12 084019The Creationists: From Scientific Creationism to Intelligent Design, Ronald L.
