Episode Synopsis After carrying up to $50,000 in business debt and paying herself relatively little despite strong revenue, Martha used a cash-flow system, built savings, and regularly reviewed expenses to get out of debt and raise her take-home pay. She and Gina discuss why chasing the next investment may not solve money stress, and how financial systems can bring more security and calm. Martha also shares what she’s working toward next: growing her business and taking her family to hike the Inca Trail.
