Have you ever felt unaligned with your work? Or maybe simply that you're not making the impact you could...in your job or in the world? In this episode, one of Erin's clients tells her story of how she went from unseen and bored to confident and literally sitting in the board room in just six months (and during Covid!) Erin Hatzikostas interviews Tara Autrey, a Strategic Marketing Manager at Aetna, and a Board Member of the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention. Erin kicks off by asking Tara to talk about her situation towards the end of last year, and what challenges she was facing.  Tara talks about how she read one of Erin's articles and then was invited to her and Kaitlyn's "Your Richest Life" workshop. Tara took this as a sign from the universe that this is what she needed to break out of her rut. Erin asks Tara to talk through what she learned about herself and the result she's seen after taking this leap and participating in the workshop. Tara talks about what she learned about herself and how she evaluated her skills, passion, and her "ikigai". Tara discusses her uncle's suicide - how she felt she couldn't help him at the time, but has since dedicated much of her life to helping others, whether that be fundraising for charities, or sending simple messages to people who seem to be struggling, just so they know someone cares. Erin then asks Tara to explain some of the things that happened - tangible and intangible - since the conference. Tara talks about wanting to become a board member for the American Foundation of Suicide Prevention, and the steps she, successfully, took to get there. She explains that Covid has been a difficult time for so many people as it relates to mental health. However, she's found that mental health awareness as a whole has had a massive boost, with more and more people accepting the everyday realities of mental health. They both discuss the energy you need to do the things you want, how to change your mindset, how to network the right way, and how you might be surprised with how you feel afterwards. Tara explains how this confidence permeates all aspects of her life, from raising kids to going to the gym. The conversation moves on to mental health, the message Tara would like to get across about mental health: how to spot signs that someone might be struggling, how to react, and when to reach out. Erin and Tara end by talking about life decisions...that even the smallest of moments can have a huge impact on your life, and you may not even realize it until you look back.

"At any given time you need to be doing one of two things: you either need to be inspired, or you need to inspire others." "Corporate America wants you to be a bold leader, but you can still be a leader, a quiet leader." "I always had that in the back of my mind, but I never thought about making a living or a profession out of it." "In this time, people are more isolated, and people who are not generally depressed feel it even more. So Covid is making mental health more at the forefront." "People who are doing things they love to do or are having success; it's not a fancy formula, it's simply that they persisted." "I felt like my energy shifted, and I was more confident in my abilities." "Sometimes I have undermined my own value, and I just didn't see it." "The small poofs of inspiration can make all the difference." "Suicide affects a lot more than one person, so if you reach out to that one person you are making a difference and caring for a lot more people's lives."   "Most people ask how you're doing, but they don't actually want to know." "Invest in yourself." "I think we're all ok and not ok at the very same time." "If you ever want to invest in yourself, take the chance."

Here's a shock (or not....): LOTS of people are feeling stress right now - so if you're feeling overwhelmed, you aren't alone. Admittedly there aren't answers for everything, but that doesn't mean it's time to throw priorities, goals, and self-care out the window. In the words of Lin Manuel's Arron Burr: "I am the one thing in life I can control." (Thanks J.D. Roth, for reminding me there's a Hamilton line for everything!) During today's show, we'll ask our roundtable: when life becomes stressful, what's your emergency plan to take back the reins? How do you get life back on track? A big thanks to our contributors today: CFP Katie Brewer from Your Richest Life, Len Penzo from the LenPenzo.com blog, and Paula Pant from the Afford Anything podcast. Another special thanks to today's celebrity reader: Jason Vitug. You can find more from Jason at his site JasonVitug.com Halfway through the show we'll give our roundtable a break while Joe rings up Kelly Lannan, VP of Young Investors at Fidelity. The financial company has released a new investing app, Fidelity Inspire, and is designed to help young adults plan, save, and invest for their financial goals. We'll dive into all the different offerings and features the app brings during our interview with Kelly. After our fintech segment we'll keep Doug's Friday gameshow going strong. Tune in to see who wins it this week! We'll finish off today's show with an all-too real question posed to Peter Dunn: when your adult kid is laid off and needs help paying the bills, what do you do? We'll ask our roundtable for their take before rolling the end credits. 

From connecting with others to helping our local communities to women having "equality" barriers come crumbling down, Erin and Nicole come to this week's episode with an uplifting Top 10 list. It's a heavy dose of gratitude sprinkled with doses of humor that hopefully will also have you seeing the pandemic positives. What do you think number one is? And what is the thing that you have now as a result of COVID that you're the most grateful for? Nicole Licata Grant starts off by talking about her marathon Sasquatch binge-watching. Is there a conspiracy with Netflix, forcing Nicole to watch conspiracy theory videos? Or does Nicole just watch so many conspiracy theory videos that Netflix is kindly suggesting others she might like? Erin Hatzikostas asks Nicole to discuss one thing that certainly isn't a conspiracy: her recent promotion. Nicole discusses people's reaction to the news, and how her method of letting the world know is probably slightly different to how most people do it. Nicole asks Erin to talk about the recent workshop that she led alongside Kaitlyn Czapiga called "Your Richest Life." Erin talks about the magic they were able to create for the attendees by combining their complementary skillsets and knowledge to develop this program that helps people find their "ikigai", or their life's purpose.  Erin discusses hiring a book coach to help her with her writing process, and how when you're taking on a huge project it can be extremely beneficial to get some aid. She also encourages people to adopt the "shitty first draft" mindset that is used as a writing technique. They move on to their Top 10 list for this week. "Top ten things that are actually good out of Covid." From connecting with others and helping our local communities, to planning our futures differently and saving, and even connecting with our natural environment more.  If you like jammin' with us on the podcast, b sure to join us for more fun and inspiration!

"People need to be more accepting when they are sick, to give themselves space to make themselves well."

Erin and Nicole sit down for another mono y mono episode and reflect on the immense possibilities they continue to see for their podcast, their lives...and for their listeners. They can see more and more every day that every single person out there has a unique and special purpose...and if they spend even a little time opening up "curtains", they'll find the answers they need to make it happen.  Kicking off with some old stories Nicole Licata Grant an Erin Hatzikostas reminisce about the days when they were roomies, including when Nicole dug someone's car out of the snow with a plastic bowl (her first entrepreneurial adventure - she did NOT do it pro bono!) Following on from Erin's interview with Amy Lacey of Cali'flour Foods (Episode 37), and Erin's guilty pleasure for Fish Sticks, Nicole also tells their infamous fish sticks story. They recap their recent annual shopping trip and some steps you can take to get a healthier gut. But be warned, Erin's WTF of the week came at the cost of a happy gut. Knocking around Nashville, Erin and Nicole share stories about hanging out at Losers ('cause who wants to go next door to Winners...boooring), meeting fans, and Erin's dad networking through getting a young guy to continuously "strip". They open up the curtains about the reason they met up in Nashville and all that they learned that can inspire you to know that anything that's on your head to do, you can figure out how to get there.  Erin briefly talks about her interview with Kate Duffy (episode 34), before the two move on to discuss the digital world, building and maintaining a brand and how "there is nothing you can't learn or can't do." Make sure to check our Erin's 2-day workshop March 20th-21st she's holding alongside Kaitlyn Czapiga (from Episode 5) titled "Your Richest Life". - Nicole will be there too!

And it's very hard for me to accept that." "I spent a year watching women do yoga, eating popcorn." "I know you never remember what you say." "Every day I;m seeing more possibility, and isn't that what we wanted from this journey, to keep figuring out what more we could do."

Every other day I do, but Mondays and Tuesdays it's just surviving." "I want better problems and better solutions in work and life." "Find the humor, find your resilience."

Think you're underpaid? You aren't alone. Are you even sure how much you should be earning in your position? On today's roundtable we'll discuss one piece examining all the ways you can mess up the driver of all of your financial activity: your salary. Whether you work for "the man" or for yourself, we'll have something for you. Helping us out today is special guest and Stacking Benjamins friend Katie Brewer, from Your Richest Life, Len Penzo from LenPenzo.com, and OG from our very own podcast. Plus, halfway through the show, we'll take a break from our discussion while Joe sits down for another chat with Angelo Poli from Metpro. It's not exactly Fintech, but keeping a mind on health tech will keep you healthy through the holidays... which keeps money in your pocket. During our Magnify Money segment we'll answer a voicemail from Jordan. Jordan and his wife are doing great in their savings and investments, and would like some advice on the best way to tackle asset allocation. As always, we'll carve out some time for a little gameshow with Doug's trivia.

We spend more and buy stuff to make us happy, but does it? Does more really equal better? On today's show we dive into a recent blog post from the Four Pillar Freedom blog to look at the nature of happiness. Money is always intertwined in our view of "happy," probably because advertisers love making us think that if we just buy one more thing we'll finally get that elusive joy that we've been craving. We'll talk about joy, addiction, happiness and more on today's podcast with a team including Beau Humphreys from The Personal Finance Show, CFP Katie Brewer from Your Richest Life planning, and our own OG. Halfway through the showwe have a special treat where we usually feature our Friday Fintech spotlight. Today instead we'll shine a light on mortgages, because with his recent move to Detroit, Joe just found out that industry insider Joel Gurman from Quicken Loans is his neighbor! Joe invites Joel down to the basement today and quizzes him about the state of mortgages, how interest rates really work, what other fees are involved with mortgages, and more. It's a wide-ranging, fun conversation about the biggest loan many of us will ever have. But that's not all. We'll help C on the Magnify Money call-in segment. C is wondering about retirement withdrawal software. He feels that savings-wise, he is on course, but he wants to make sure that he is withdrawing in the most tax-efficient way.
