How many times have you caught yourself saying, “That’s expensive,” or “I’ll feel safe when I make more money”? Those little thoughts are the reason so many entrepreneurs stay stuck at their current income level. Today’s guest, Jillian Minter, is living proof that you don’t have to be a broke entrepreneur—and that changing how you think about money can completely change how you make it.

In this episode, I’m joined by Jillian Minter, a Seattle-based business and money coach who went from owning a struggling Pilates studio in Las Vegas to selling it for full price, running a multi–seven-figure business in Seattle, and now helping women scale their online income through mindset and manifestation.

We talk about breaking free from the “broke entrepreneur” identity, how to use small daily mindset shifts to create big results, and why taking one small future-you action—like joining a wine club—can change your business more than any new strategy ever could.

In this episode:

• The wild Vegas to Seattle story of how Jillian and I met

• From employee to boss to employee to boss again — and why that’s not “backwards”

• What keeps most entrepreneurs broke (and how to spot it in your language)

• Why mindset matters more than the “perfect” business strategy

• How Jillian sold her Pilates studio for full asking price through mindset work

• My wine-club story — and how acting like your future self changes everything

• Simple daily practices to stay grounded in your revenue goals

• Going all-in on business and the freedom that comes from trusting yourself
