Welcome to another episode of the Buzzworthy Marketing Podcast! This week, host Michael Buzinski sits down with Profit First legend Mike Michalowicz for a no-nonsense conversation about why so many entrepreneurs feel financially stuck, even when the money is rolling in. If you've ever felt like your business is your sugar daddy but you're still struggling to make ends meet, this episode is for you.



Together, Michael and Mike dive into the surprising real reason business owners get caught in financial quicksand—and it's not because you're bad at math. Instead, they unpack how we're naturally wired to handle money and how traditional approaches just don't work for most of us. Mike shares how blending personal and business finances can sabotage both your wallet and your peace of mind, offering actionable tips to break free from those old, destructive money habits.



They also explore the psychology behind our spending habits, the addictive power of dopamine, and creative ways to set yourself up for lasting profit—both in life and in business. By the end of this episode, you'll see why being profit-first minded changes everything and how aligning your finances could be the marketing edge you didn’t know you needed.
