#605: Our Personal Financial Goals for Q3 and Q4

The Simplicity Sessions

Show Notes

This episode isn't really about money strategies (though we get into some of that too). It's about why really intelligent, capable people avoid opening their bank statements, undercharge for their work, blow their savings the moment they make good money, or freeze right before pulling the trigger on an investment they know makes sense. We've been those people, and in this episode we're getting personal. In this episode we talk about: Why two people can receive the exact same amount of money and have completely different experiences with it

How your nervous system is running the financial show

The GIC example that explains exactly how banks make money off your fear

Why making more money doesn't fix a leaky financial foundation

Our own money stories (including why I finally got my financial license, and what pushed me to do it)

The "doors conversation" we had in our kitchen last week

Why we sold our Costa Rica house and got rid of our boat

Budgeting as money awareness, not restriction

The $25/month RESP investment that's going to make our kids millionaires

How to get your teenager to actually care about investing (hint: don't be the one to have the conversation)

This is the third and final installment of our Practice and Profit Boot Camp, and today we went all in on the business side. If you've been following along with Parts 1 and 2, you know we've covered the clinical foundations. But today?

Today you're tuning into Part Two of a three-day bootcamp I ran called Practice and Profit. This episode is all about the clinical side of your practice — and honestly, whether you're a nutritionist, personal trainer, naturopath, chiropractor, osteopath, massage therapist, Reiki practitioner, life coach, or NP, there's something in here for you. Even if you're on the receiving end of health and wellness services, I think you'll get a lot out of this one.
