Welcome to a high-energy, no-holds-barred showdown between two of the most popular wealth-building strategies: real estate and investing in an S&P 500 index fund. Ever wondered if your money is better off in bricks and mortar or riding the stock market wave? In this episode, I break down the pros, cons, and real-life examples of each approach to help you decide which path is best for you. In this episode, we cover: Real Estate 101: The highs (cash flow, appreciation, leverage) and lows (tenants, maintenance, and late-night repair calls). S&P 500 Basics: Why this “set it and forget it” strategy is loved by millions, how dividends can supercharge growth, and the power of compounding over time. Real-Life Case Studies: Meet Sarah, who turned her rental property headaches into a real estate portfolio, and Jason, who chose the S&P 500 and let compounding take the reins. Who Wins the Wealth Showdown? How to decide which investment fits your lifestyle, risk tolerance, and financial goals. Whether you’re a hands-on investor with dreams of owning properties or a laid-back stock market enthusiast who wants to let time work its magic, this episode has something for everyone.

Paying off debt isn't just about following some boring budget advice. If it were that easy, you'd already be debt-free. In this episode, I dive into the real secrets no one talks about when it comes to debt—why it’s not just a financial problem but an emotional one and how you can actually flip the script to make it work in your favor. I’m breaking down the psychological side of debt payoff, revealing how small wins can give you the momentum to crush it, and sharing some of the most insane things people have done to get out of debt. Trust me, it’s time to get real about what works—and what doesn’t. Listener Takeaways: Debt isn’t just financial; it’s emotional. You need to tackle your feelings of shame, guilt, and fear to truly conquer it. The psychological win method builds momentum—focus on small victories, celebrate them, and use that energy to keep going. Debt-free doesn’t mean perfect. Progress over perfection is what matters, so let go of the guilt and keep moving forward.

Are you tired of the paycheck-to-paycheck grind? What if I told you that a few simple habits are the only things keeping you broke? In this episode, we will break down the five sneaky money habits that could sabotage your financial freedom—and, more importantly, how to shatter them once and for all. Our guest, Julia Carlson, a seasoned financial leader with over 25 years of expertise, the visionary founder of Financial Freedom Wealth Management Group, and author of “Money Loves You,” doesn’t sugarcoat it: spending more than you earn, waiting for the ‘perfect time’ to act, drowning in debt, ignoring your finances, and holding onto limiting beliefs about money are the real culprits. But here’s the twist—these habits have a way out, and Julia’s here to show us how. With a mix of self-awareness, curiosity, and some hard truths, she’ll guide us toward setting goals, investing smartly, and building that love-love relationship with money.

Let me ask you—what if I told you the gender pay gap isn’t just about your paycheck? It’s time to wake up because you’re leaving way more on the table than you think. Today, I’m sitting down with negotiation expert Kathryn Valentine, CEO of Worthmore Strategies, where she helps organizations advance female talent, and we’re dropping the ultimate list—75 things women can successfully negotiate for at work besides salary. That’s right, 75! Why am I so fired up about this? Because I know first-hand how crucial it is for women to demand what they’re worth—not just in dollars but in opportunities, flexibility, and career power moves.

In this episode, you’ll learn how to tap into your strengths, boost your confidence, and negotiate like a boss to build real wealth. So if you’re ready to stop playing small and start negotiating for the life you deserve, this episode is for you.

I like the ideas being spoke about for making money in other ways and cutting spending; however, the discussion around traditional/passive investing in saying that it has duped prior generations is incorrect. Even investing in 401(k) for 35 years in mutual funds making 5-7% and with 10-15% of gross earnings and employer match means an individual can retire comfortably. I believe you have sent a mixed message to the audience.

I disagree with her premise on health plans I wouldn’t say she’s that educated either on this she works for Cosmo... also the subject they didn’t address which should be a big deal is that younger people who aren’t in therapy or see a dr for conditions etc are better suited to a HDHP the employer may sometimes add money into that plan to begin with my company inject $500 in my HSA and then I just put 10$ a check in that fund both PPO and HDHP have out of pocket maximums and they may be 3-5,000$ and that’s a RARE thing to happen and if it does it does and you just wil have to pay for it either way but it doesn’t make sense to be fearful of rare things you just cross that bridge god forbid but if you’re healthy 20-30s don’t see doctors then save that money it’s about $1000 difference for me in premiums a year and what are the odds I’m going to use that much health insurance to make up for that $1000 in premiums? Very low. So if you get sick once or twice a year you can just use the money

So, this is not an episode that will prpvide you with solutions and options. It's an episode about their experience in financially abusive relationship and that they have clients living paycheck to paycheck they help. I was expecting advice, methods, steps, insight, etc. But no...
