We're officially in the final stretch of the year, and you know what that means: holiday parties, family gatherings, and probably a little too much spending on gifts, decorations, and celebrations. But before we get caught up in all the festivities and lose sight of our financial goals, I want to remind you of something important: it's not too late to make some powerful moves with your money before the year ends. Here's the thing so many people get wrong: you don't have to wait until January 1st to start improving your finances. In fact, the last few weeks of the year are actually the perfect time to reflect on your spending patterns, reset your financial priorities, and take small but mighty actions that will set you up for success in 2026. Think about it…most people wait until New Year's to think about their money goals, but by starting now, you're already ahead of the game. You can finish 2025 strong and hit the ground running in January instead of scrambling to figure out where to start. So in today's episode, I'm sharing 10 quick financial wins you can knock out before the ball drops on New Year's Eve. These are simple, achievable things that don't require hours of work or major lifestyle changes, but they can give you clarity, confidence, and serious momentum going into a brand-new year.  From cleaning up your finances to building quick wins and resetting your money mindset, these actionable steps will help you close out the year feeling proud and prepared.   Here's What You'll Learn in This Episode: How to conduct a meaningful 2025 spending review and identify problem areas Strategies for finding and eliminating wasted subscription spending Setting up financial automation to build consistency in 2026 Creating sinking funds for specific 2026 goals and priorities Maximizing credit card rewards and cash back before year-end Making strategic extra debt payments for psychological momentum Reviewing and celebrating your savings progress (no matter the amount) Goal-setting techniques to enter 2026 with clear financial direction Money mindset reflection practices for lasting behavior change Why celebrating progress is essential for building financial confidence   Don't Wait for January: While everyone else is scrambling to figure out their New Year's resolutions, you can finish 2025 strong and start 2026 already ahead. These 10 achievable wins take minimal time but create maximum impact on your financial confidence and trajectory.   Here's a glance at this episode: [01:54] The 10 financial wins are broken up into 3 segments: cleaning up your finances, quick wins for momentum, and reflecting and resetting your mindset. [03:45] 2025 Spending Review: Analyzing where your money went and identifying overspending patterns (plus tracking system resources). [07:50] Credit Card Rewards Strategy: Cashing out points to fund holiday spending or accelerate financial goals. [11:25] Setting your goals is a must, money goals included! Start thinking about your 2026 goals now to start fresh January 1st.  [14:59] Progress Celebration: How gratitude builds financial confidence and empowers better money decisions.   Podcast Break Announcement: The City Girl Savings Podcast will be taking a short break during Q1 2026.

Norm wakes up on a Monday and immediately chooses violence… toward the College Football Playoff Committee. In today's episode, he tries to make sense of a ranking system that apparently pulls names out of a decorative bowl, rewards three-loss teams, and somehow decided James Madison is the belle of the postseason ball while Notre Dame and BYU get left standing outside holding the corsage.If you thought the BCS was bad, congratulations — we've upgraded to BCS: Reloaded, now with bonus nonsense. Norm breaks down the committee's “logic,” why head-to-head apparently matters only when it's convenient, and how a game played in AUGUST somehow shaped December rankings.Spoiler: Norm is unimpressed.

One of the most powerful and courageous practices you can adopt is to review your year—and this is not just something for a business owner. Reviewing your year or conducting an annual review is a great way to consider what the past year has been about, what you've learned, and you can use that information to chart a path for growth.If the thought of year-end reflection leaves you feeling more anxious than inspired? Use today's podcast episode to give yourself a reset, as I dive into How to Conduct an Annual Review (That Actually Makes You Feel Alive, Not Behind)Learn how to conduct a meaningful, psychology-informed annual review that helps you reconnect with your growth, not your guilt. I'm sharing powerful questions to reflect on your year with honesty instead of judgment, identify invisible progress, release what's no longer aligned, and end with gratitude that actually feels real.This isn't a productivity audit. It's a practice in self-trust, clarity, and compassion — the foundation for setting goals that genuinely fit who you are.

In this episode, we're joined again by Jim Paulsen to break down the key themes shaping markets and the economy heading into 2026. Jim explains why policymakers may be fighting the wrong battle, why real sustainable growth has quietly collapsed over the past 20 years, and how shifts in policy, demographics, productivity, inflation, and investor psychology all tie together.

JB White returns from Thanksgiving energized and full of stories, kicking off the December 1 RattlerGator Report with celebrations over the Gators' big win and the Jaguars' renewed momentum. He breaks down the quarterback drama, the rise of Jaden Ball, and his relief at Florida hiring John Sumrall instead of Lane Kiffin, diving into what true program culture requires in the NIL era. From there, JB shifts into broader reflection, sharing his “Back At Ya” theory, his ongoing conversations with Oak, and why he believes recent global developments are confirming the strength of what he calls the “Trump Doctrine.” Reviewing emerging commentary on Ukraine peace negotiations, global financial realignments, and America's shift toward Bitcoin-backed sovereignty, he argues that Trump's tariff strategy, decentralization, and crypto-friendly policy posture represent a second American Revolution aimed at dismantling parasitic global systems. After sponsor reads and lively chat interaction, JB closes with thoughts on Venezuela, Cuba, geopolitics, and the stakes of the battles ahead—ending the show with his trademark humor, bluntness, and patriotic conviction.

The automated "Great job, team!" email blasted to 47 people at 4:37 PM on a Friday isn't authentic appreciation. Neither is the generic gift basket ordered by someone in HR who's never met your top performer, or the corporate recognition program where nobody actually feels valued. These things look like recognition, but your people know the truth: leadership is outsourcing one of the most human tasks—seeing the people who show up every day and make things happen. And your teams feel the disconnect. As Jeb Blount Jr. recently said on the Sales Gravy Podcast: "Don't make your appreciation to customers, to your team, to yourself a completely outsourced behavior. It will be cheap, and everyone will know it." Authentic appreciation can't be delegated to your human resources team or automated through your CRM. And that's exactly why it works. Where Sales Leaders Go Wrong with Recognition Most sales leaders fall into one of two camps. Camp one believes they don't have time for appreciation because they're focused on results. The numbers are what matter. Recognition is soft skills territory—nice to have, but not essential. Camp two wants to show appreciation but defaults to the path of least resistance. They sign the company card. Approve the budget for the year-end gift. Forward the congratulatory email from the VP. Box checked. Both camps are missing what actually moves people. Recognition that matters requires you to see the work that often goes unseen. It demands that you pause long enough to notice not just the outcome, but the effort behind it. That's not something you can outsource. Why Small Moments Compound Into Big Results There's a concept in professional development about making 1% improvements every single day. Over 365 days, those tiny adjustments compound into exponential growth. Authentic appreciation works the same way. You don't need a massive recognition program. You don't need elaborate gestures or expensive rewards. You need consistency in the small moments that tell your team: I see you, and what you are doing matters. Consider the sales rep who stays late to prep for tomorrow's presentation. The account manager who defuses a client issue before it reaches your desk. The teammate who mentors the new hire without being asked. These moments happen every day, and most leaders miss them entirely because they're scanning for the big wins. But your team isn't just looking for recognition when they close the monster deal. They're looking for it on Tuesday afternoon when they're grinding through their 50th prospecting call. They're looking for it when they've had a brutal week and still show up ready to perform. Small acts of authentic appreciation in these moments build trust faster than any annual award ceremony ever will. 3 Elements of Authentic Appreciation Authentic appreciation has three non-negotiable elements. Specific means recognizing exactly what someone did and why it mattered. Not "great work on that account," but "the way you handled that objection about pricing showed real creativity—you reframed value instead of dropping price, and that's exactly the approach we need more of." Timely means you don't wait for the quarterly review or the annual celebration. You recognize the effort when it happens, while it's still fresh and meaningful. Personal means you deliver it in a way that resonates with that individual. Some people want public recognition. Others prefer a quiet conversation. Some treasure a handwritten note. Others just want to hear it directly from you in the moment. Here's what this looks like in real leadership: One sales leader makes it a practice to handwrite notes to team members. Not emails. Not Slack messages. Actual pen-on-paper notes. Some are two sentences. Some are three paragraphs. But everyone is specific to something that person did and why it mattered to the team. Is it efficient? No. Does it scale? Not really. But those notes end up on office walls, in desk drawers, and tucked into planners. Years later, people still have them. That's the difference between authentic and outsourced. Integrate Authentic Appreciation Into How You Already Work Most sales leaders know they should show more appreciation. They feel guilty about it. They add it to their to-do list. And then the day gets away from them. The problem is treating appreciation as an extra task instead of integrating it into what you're already doing. You're already having one-on-ones. Reviewing deals. Walking the floor or jumping on calls. The question isn't whether you have time—it's whether you're paying attention in those moments. When reviewing pipeline, don't just look at the numbers. Notice the effort. "I see you've been hitting activity goals consistently for six weeks straight. That discipline is setting you up for a strong Q1." When someone sends an update email, reply with more than “thanks.” Take 30 seconds to acknowledge what they did: "This breakdown made my job easier. I didn't have to dig for answers. That kind of communication makes our team more efficient." These aren't grand gestures. They're small moments of paying attention and responding like a human being who notices when people do good work. Building a Culture Where Authentic Appreciation Flows Both Ways The best team cultures don't just flow from leader to team member; they flow in every direction. When you model authentic appreciation, your team starts doing it for each other. They notice the work that happens behind the scenes. They start going the extra mile. The culture shifts from everyone waiting for the leader's approval to everyone building each other up. One practice that works: create space in team meetings for peer recognition. Not forced or formal—just an open moment where anyone can call out something they appreciated from a teammate that week. Keep it optional. Keep it genuine. You'll be surprised how quickly it becomes part of your team's rhythm. Additionally, most high performers are terrible at acknowledging their own progress. They hit a goal and immediately move to the next one without pausing to appreciate what they just accomplished. In coaching sessions, start by asking: “What's a win from this week?” Make them say it out loud. Make them acknowledge their own growth. That internal recognition builds resilience and momentum that external praise alone can't create. What Happens When You Get This Right When you stop outsourcing appreciation and start building it into your leadership, everything shifts. Retention improves. People stay where they feel seen and valued. They leave when they feel invisible. Team energy changes. Appreciated people bring more to the table. They take ownership. They go the extra mile because they want to. Difficult conversations get easier. When someone knows you genuinely care about their success, they're more open to feedback and coaching. Culture becomes magnetic. Top performers want to work on teams where their contributions matter. They can feel the difference between authentic and transactional leadership from a mile away. Take Action This Week Stop waiting for the perfect appreciation program or the right company initiative. Start with what you can control right now. This week: Write one handwritten note to someone on your team. Be specific about what they did and why it mattered. In your next one-on-one, ask “What's a win from this week?” and let them acknowledge their own progress. Catch someone doing something right—however small—and tell them in the moment. End your next team meeting with clear recognition for one person. Not generic praise, tell them exactly what you noticed and why it mattered. This month: Create a recognition moment in every team meeting. Make it specific, not generic. Ask yourself: What recognition do I wish I were receiving? Then give that to someone else. When reviewing pipeline or performance, comment on the effort, not just the outcome. Stop Outsourcing What Should Be Human The work you do as a sales leader matters. The people on your team matter. And the small moments where you choose to show up and recognize their effort—those matter most of all. Your team isn't waiting for the next corporate initiative or the annual awards ceremony. They're waiting for you to notice. They're waiting for you to care enough to say something about the work they're doing right now. Stop outsourcing what should be human. Lead with authentic appreciation today, and watch your team thrive.  Want to turn recognition into motivation that sticks? Our Sales Gravy University course, 4 Keys to Keeping Your Sales Team Motivated When Everything Hits the Fan, gives you the proven framework to transform appreciation into performance. Learn how to build a sales culture where people feel seen, valued, and driven — even in hard times.

I sat down with James, the Boring Marketer, to stress-test Claude 4.5 Opus against Gemini 3 Pro for real-world coding and design work. Together we live-build and compare landing pages and clickable prototypes for an “EstateClear” probate-family dashboard, then zoom out into conversion copywriting frameworks, “elevated direct response” brand voice, and ad creative workflows. The episode is a practical walkthrough of how non-technical builders can go from idea → landing page → prototype → ads using modern AI tools without vibe-coded, low-converting sites.  Timestamps 00:00 – Intro 02:00 – Startup Idea: EstateClear 03:17 – Claude Opus 4.5 04:47 – Gemini 3.0 Pro 09:02 – Reviewing Opus' landing page 11:16 – Reviewing Gemini's version 12:17 – Comparing the two 17:29 – Reprompting Opus 4.5 and Gemini 19:02 – Google's vertically integrated stack (AI Studio, Anti-Gravity, TPUs, Workspace) 21:50 – Nano Banana Pro and ad creative experiments 27:35 – Opus 4.5 builds a clickable EstateClear prototype 31:38 – Gemini's prototype and comparing product depth 36:40 – Anti-Gravity + Nano Banana workflow for mockups and code 44:41 – Claude Skills Workflow and Best Practices 56:41 – Final Thoughts Key Points Claude 4.5 Opus can act like a senior engineer for non-technical builders when paired with a tight skill and tools setup. Conversion wins come more from “elevated direct response” copy and clear page architecture than from fancy visuals alone. Claude's front-end design skill meaningfully reduces “AI-looking” gradients and vibe-coded layouts, producing cleaner, production-grade UIs. Live tests show Opus 4.5 generates more refined layouts and deeper product thinking, while Gemini often injects clever AI product features. Google's integration of Anti-Gravity, Nano Banana, and AI Studio points to a powerful end-to-end environment for shipping and promoting products.

Broadway seems to be everywhere you look these days. A touring production of "Hamilton" was recently on stage in Rochester. Despite the show being ten years old, it still drew a packed house.

Recorded: November 24, 2025 Former NFL linebacker Will Compton and former left tackle Taylor Lewan sit down in the back of the bus for a full Thanksgiving preview packed with football talk, drama, and plenty to be thankful for. The Boys break down what’s been going on inside the bus — including Taylor’s battle with gout, his potential all-veggie Thanksgiving diet, and how he’s fighting through it one step at a time. Bussin’ Head of Social Media Jack McPherson exposes a growing darkness inside the shop: an office troll. Producer Jeremy Klump is forced to defend his honor in a trial by combat, facing accusations of the ultimate thanksgiving-season crime — being a fraudulent football fan. Will and Taylor also question Clay Matthews’ Locker Room picks, leading into a fired-up Tier Talk ranking the best holiday drinks and brews. Then producer JP Hovey jumps into the mix, calling out Will Compton for allegedly lying about watching movies and shows, sparking yet another showdown on the bus. The Boys bring it all home by sharing what they’re most thankful for and what they’d do anything for this Thanksgiving season. Big Hugs & Tiny Kisses!
