325. Brand Voice for Women Entrepreneurs: Stop Performing and Start Attracting Your People with Patricia Viscount 03/24/2026

325. Brand Voice for Women Entrepreneurs: Stop Performing and Start Attracting Your People with Patricia Viscount There are three questions every human being is asking: Do you see me? Do you hear me? And do I matter? When the voice you're putting out into the world doesn't actually sound like you — when it's been sanded down into something professional and polished and unrecognizable — those three questions go unanswered for the very people you are trying to reach. In this episode, I sit down with Patricia Viscount — brand voice strategist, former Canadian Army Public Affairs Officer with NATO tours in Bosnia and Kosovo, and Communication Specialist in the international energy sector — to talk about why so many coaches and consultants perform a version of professionalism that has nothing to do with who they actually are, and what it looks like to finally stop. You are going to love Patricia's story. There were several points in our conversation where my mouth was just open. This woman has been through things most people haven't. She has seen things most people haven't seen. And what she does now — helping entrepreneurs uncover the genuine voice that was already there — makes complete sense when you hear where she's been. This conversation is also going to remind you of how abundant your life is. And how much we all owe to the people who stand up and use their voices every day, inspiring the rest of us to do the same. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN Why coaches and consultants perform a "professional" version of themselves in writing — and how to stop Why confidence is borrowable — and how to use someone else's belief in you as a bridge to your own Why ready is a decision, not a feeling — and what that means for every move you're afraid to make What a brand voice guide actually looks like and how it removes you as the bottleneck in your own content How Patricia went from 15 years in the Canadian Army to building a business around helping entrepreneurs find their genuine voice SPECIAL GIFT FROM PATRICIA Take Patricia's free Brand Voice Quiz to discover your brand voice personality: CONNECT WITH PATRICIA Website: LinkedIn: Instagram: ABOUT PATRICIA Before starting her business, Patricia had a 15-year career as a Public Affairs Officer in the Canadian Army, with NATO tours in Bosnia and Kosovo. This was followed by a diverse career as a Communication Specialist in the international energy sector, where she continued to herd all the cats. She helps coaching and consulting businesses refine their brand voice and messaging, and streamline their content — website, sales pages, and email marketing — so they can grow and attract aligned, premium clients with ease.

324. Raising Resilient Kids: Why Letting Go Is the Most Loving Thing You Can Do with Randi Crawford 03/17/2026

324. Raising Resilient Kids: Why Letting Go Is the Most Loving Thing You Can Do with Randi Crawford Parenting. Just that one word is enough to make your shoulders tighten, isn’t it? In this episode, I sit down with Randi Crawford — certified life coach, speaker, author, and mom — to talk honestly about what it actually takes to raise kids who can handle life when you’re not there to fix it for them. Randi spent years coaching young women before she realized the real work needed to happen one generation up — with the moms. What she found, over and over, was that the struggle these girls were experiencing traced directly back to one thing: parents who loved their kids so much they were accidentally getting in the way. We talk about why confidence can’t be handed to a child through compliments, how social media has quietly eroded the trust moms have in their own instincts, and why the line between love and control is thinner than most of us want to admit. My own kids are 16 and 19 at the time of this recording. More than once during this conversation, I had to pause and sit with some honest self-reflection. I think you will too. If you’re a mom and a woman entrepreneur, this one will speak to you in more ways than one. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN Why confidence is built through action — not compliments — and what that means for how we show up for our kids How social media has gaslit an entire generation of moms out of trusting their own gut The difference between helping your child and robbing them of something essential Why independence is the actual goal of parenting — and what stepping back actually looks like in practice How the lessons Randi teaches about raising resilient kids mirror what we work through every day in business CONNECT WITH RANDI CRAWFORD Website: Instagram: TikTok: ABOUT RANDI CRAWFORD Meet Randi Crawford, a life coach, speaker, and mom redefining resilience for the next generation. A certified life coach, author, and former co-founder of Women First HealthCare, a pioneering public company that reached over 10 million women, Randi brings candor, humor, and hard truths to modern parenting and life in general. Known for her no-BS, zero-victim approach, she helps parents stop over-helping, start connecting, and raise capable—not coddled—kids. Her mission: less fixing, more resilience. Less fear, more confidence. Because fear raises fragile kids. Connection raises resilient ones. READY TO BUILD YOUR CONFIDENCE?

Now you are standing there looking at all of it, wondering what actually comes next. That is exactly the problem Jessica James built Madilyn James to solve. In this episode, I sit down with Jessica — serial entrepreneur, tech founder, and the woman behind a brand new e-commerce platform built specifically for people who want to sell secondhand items online without juggling multiple platforms, paying anything upfront, or figuring out a marketing strategy on top of everything else.

322. Tax Tips for Women Entrepreneurs: What the Tax Industry Doesn't Want You to Know with Hannah Cole 03/03/2026

322. Tax Tips for Women Entrepreneurs: What the Tax Industry Doesn't Want You to Know with Hannah Cole Say the word "taxes" out loud. Did your shoulders just clench? Yeah. That's not an accident. In this episode, I sit down with Hannah Cole — artist, tax expert, author of Taxes for Humans, and founder of Sunlight Tax — to talk about why the tax industry profits from keeping you afraid, and what you can actually do about it. Hannah breaks down the three main IRA options available to self-employed women in plain, clear language that finally makes it click. She talks about why creatives, women, and anyone who doesn't fit the traditional financial mold has been left out of this conversation on purpose — and how that changes when you have access to someone who sounds like your best friend instead of a shaming accountant. This is one of those conversations that will make you exhale. Because the tax system isn't as scary as you've been led to believe. And the tools available to you are far more powerful than most people realize. If you've ever felt like money — or taxes — weren't meant for someone like you, this episode is going to change that. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN Why the tax industry's marketing mechanism is fear — and how to stop falling for it Why nobody gets a tax education in this country (and why that's not your fault) The real difference between a Traditional IRA, Roth IRA, and SEP IRA in plain language Why creativity is a synonym for resourcefulness when it comes to money How to start thinking of money and taxes as a tool that works for you instead of against you FREE GIFT FROM HANNAH COLE Download Hannah's Free Visual Guide to Tax Deductions here: CONNECT WITH HANNAH COLE Website: Instagram: LinkedIn: ABOUT HANNAH COLE Hannah Cole is an artist, tax expert, author of [link: ], and founder of Sunlight Tax.

321. Dating Smart: The Real Reason Successful Women Struggle in Love, with Laura Nagiel 02/24/2026

321. Dating Smart: The Real Reason Successful Women Struggle in Love, with Laura Nagiel Your success isn't scaring men away. But the energy you had to adopt to build that success? That might be creating a problem you didn't know existed. In this episode, Sarah talks with Laura Nagiel, a dating and confidence coach who works specifically with high-achieving women. Laura shares why being "twice as masculine as the men around you" at work can completely backfire when you're trying to build a romantic connection—and what to do about it. They explore the "second gear" successful women need to shift between work mode and dating mode, how to actually assess someone's level of ambition (spoiler: it's not about asking five-year plans), and why self-love—not just self-confidence—determines what you'll actually accept in relationships. Laura's been through it herself. After a successful PR career and years of dating frustration, she took a year off to study her own patterns. The very first date after that year? Her life partner. Now she helps women understand the psychology of attraction, the masculine-feminine polarity, and how to create the conditions for finding an aligned partner. This conversation is practical, honest, and refreshing. If you've ever felt like you can build a six-figure business but can't seem to get dating right, this episode is for you. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN → Why your success isn't the problem—but the masculine energy you developed to achieve it might be → The "second gear" that lets you be powerful at work AND open in relationships → How to assess someone's actual level of ambition through their actions, not their words → The crucial difference between self-confidence and self-love (and why you need both) → Why "leaning back" reveals more about compatibility than interviewing over wine → How past relationships shape your current dating mindset—and what to do about it SPECIAL GIFT FROM LAURA NAGIEL Take Laura's free dating audit to discover what your biggest problem is in dating right now and the 3 specific steps you need to take to fix it.

After years of struggling with dating herself—despite success in PR and building a thriving coaching business—Laura took a year off dating to study her own patterns. The very first date after resuming? Her life partner. Now she helps women understand the psychology of attraction, masculine and feminine polarity, and why people bond the way they do, so they can finally experience their dream relationship and truly have it all in life.

320. Building Confidence Through Small Wins with Jen Mueller 02/17/2026

320. Building Confidence Through Small Wins with Jen Mueller Ever walked into a room wondering if you really belonged there? Like they're going to find out you don't actually know what you're doing? Here's what Jen Mueller will tell you: If you're in the room, you're supposed to be there. Stop selling past the close. In this episode, Sarah welcomes Jen Mueller, founder of Talk Sporty to Me, to talk about the small wins that build unshakable confidence. They unpack why "hello" became Jen's measure of success, how bubble gum moments prove your small actions are stacking up, and why you need to stop over-proving yourself once you're already in the door. Jen breaks down how she built relationships in male-dominated spaces, how to channel competitiveness without burning out, and why your resume matters way less than how you make people feel. Because here's the truth: small wins stack up to big success when you measure what actually matters to you—not everyone else's highlight reel. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN Why confidence isn’t loud—and how small wins build lasting belief The most powerful question to ask before entering any room What women can own in male-dominated industries Why chasing praise burns you out (and what to do instead) How to connect authentically in any career (no name-dropping required) FREE GIFTS FROM JEN MUELLER CONNECT WITH JEN MUELLER Website: LinkedIn: Instagram: Facebook: YouTube: ABOUT JEN MUELLER Jen is a veteran sideline reporter for the Seattle Seahawks, and for over two decades, was a member of the Seattle Mariners' TV broadcast team.

Why Your Business Feels Stuck (And the Limiting Beliefs Keeping You There) with Dr. LaChelle Wieme Ever felt like your business is technically moving forward—but you're still stuck in the "fine vortex"? Like you've traded your 9-to-5 for 24/7, your income swings from $2,000 to $8,000 to $3,000, and you're hustling harder but getting nowhere?

318. How to Structure Your Business for Venture Capital Funding with Ms. Cat 02/03/2026

318. How to Structure Your Business for Venture Capital Funding with Ms. Cat Only 3% of venture capital funding goes to women-owned businesses. But here's the thing—it's not because your idea isn't good enough. It's because of foundational mistakes you're making before you even apply. Business strategist Ms. Cat (Catherine Mitchell) joins Sarah to break down exactly what keeps women entrepreneurs from accessing the billions in funding that's actually available. From choosing the wrong business name to using your personal Gmail account, these structural errors are disqualifying you before funders even look at your pitch. Ms. Cat walks through the NAICS code trap, why your LLC address matters more than you think, and the exact moment you should start looking for funding. Plus, she gets real about the burning desire you need to make the leap from side hustle to main hustle—and why entrepreneurship isn't for everyone. This conversation is part of Sarah's mission to put more money in the hands of more women. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN The 5 foundational mistakes that disqualify businesses from funding—including why certain business names are considered "high risk" and how your NAICS code can knock you out of the game When to actually start looking for venture capital funding (and the capital gap test to know if you're ready) Why using your home address on your LLC is a red flag to investors—and what funders are really looking for when they Google your business The 3-4x rule for knowing when your side hustle is ready to become your main hustle Why funding challenges have nothing to do with your product or service—it's all about foundation and structure How women disqualify themselves before they even ask for funding (and how proper structure gives you the confidence to apply) The burning desire you need beyond just a good idea to survive entrepreneurship READY TO BUILD A BUSINESS FOUNDATION THAT POSITIONS YOU FOR GROWTH?

317. Breaking Free from Burnout Without Losing Your Edge with Wendy Meadows 01/27/2026

317. Breaking Free from Burnout Without Losing Your Edge with Wendy Meadows Have you ever felt burned out? Not the "I don't feel like working today" kind—but the deep burnout where you're gaining weight you can't explain, nothing brings you joy, and you're hanging on by your fingernails just trying to get through each day? Former family law litigator Wendy Meadows knows this intimately. After years of fighting in courtrooms and bringing that combative energy home, she made a shift that changed everything. She became a health and wellness coach, discovered how coaching could transform her legal practice, and eventually left litigation for collaborative law and coaching high-achieving women. In this conversation, we talk about recognizing when there's more for you, what work-life balance actually looks like (spoiler: it's not perfect), and why the girlfriends who call you out might be your most valuable asset. Wendy is the author of "Sparkle and Grit" and helps women who've checked all the boxes but still feel stuck break free from burnout and live on purpose. What You'll Learn Why burnout is more than just exhaustion—it’s disconnection How real coaching (the kind without fluff) can change a legal practice… and a life What to listen to daily to reconnect with what matters today Why collaborative solutions can still be powerful ones The power of friendships that hold space instead of judgment Special gift from Wendy: Pause Time Playbook - A 7-Day Guided Playbook for High-Achievers in High-Stress Environments - Connect with Wendy here: Website: and LinkedIn: Facebook: Instagram: About Wendy Meadows Wendy S.

312. Awakening, Abundance & Ancient Wisdom — Rewriting Your Money Story with Halle Eavelyn 12/23/2025

312. Awakening, Abundance & Ancient Wisdom — Rewriting Your Money Story with Halle Eavelyn What if money isn't as "real" as we think it is? This week, Sarah talks to spiritual coach, tour leader, and money mindset mentor Halle Eavelyn about the deep, often hidden beliefs that shape women's relationships with wealth. From a life-changing awakening in Egypt to writing The Passive Income Power Plan, Halle shares how she helps women remember their power—and step fully into it. Here's something wild: women couldn't open their own bank accounts until 1974. Today, we still receive only 3% of venture capital funding. These aren't just statistics—they're symptoms of deep programming affecting how we approach money right now. Halle had a profound moment in the dining room of a Nile cruise ship during a guided meditation. She received a download that hit every cell of her body: "You have a soul and you will never die." That spiritual awakening sparked a 30-year exploration into consciousness, intuition, and how women can reclaim their birthright to wealth. If you've been wondering why you haven't been making more money, or if you've been feeling stuck around the idea that you deserve wealth - this conversation is for you. This is episode 312 of the Game On Girlfriend podcast. I'm Sarah Walton, and I help women entrepreneurs build businesses they love through authentic sales strategies and money mindset work. What You'll Learn Halle's unshakable spiritual awakening in Egypt—and what happened at the Temple of Philae Why money is energetic (not just emotional) The "trauma inheritance" that affects women's wealth-building How women become their own gatekeepers around funding and wealth (and how to stop) Why money is just a story we tell ourselves—and how to rewrite that story What's coming economically and why women need to prepare now (financial tsunami by 2027) Simple ways to start rewriting your money story right now Practical steps to reclaim your financial power, including passive income strategies Why Sarah loved the idea of creating small wealth circles with friends How to follow your intuition breadcrumbs from awareness through action into results Related Episodes You Might Love Ep 307: The Grace Codes: Leading with Feminine Power Ep 263: How Your Nervous System Shapes Your Money Habits Ep 227: How to Clear a Money Fog Connect with Halle Eavelyn About Halle Eavelyn Featured in Time Magazine, USA Today, and Good Morning America, Halle is a Transformational Wealth Coach, speaker, and writer who helps women clear their old patterns and beliefs so they can call in the financial power that brings freedom. Drawing on over 30 years of business experience in software, real estate, film production, and travel, Halle's work with intuitive modalities is both deep and extremely fast, with clients experiencing powerful shifts in their thinking, feeling, and behavior regarding wealth. Her latest programs include Wealth Elevation and CryptoCurious. After her awakening in Egypt, Halle wrote the spiritual travel memoir Red Goddess Rising and has led over 30 spiritual journeys up the Nile. She's also the author of 100 Ways To Be In Joy, NutriGlamorous: How To Be Beautiful Inside and Out, and her latest book, The Passive Income Power Plan: 108 Ways to Make Money While You Sleep.

311. Soul Setting Over Goal Setting: A Year-End Reflection for Women Entrepreneurs 12/16/2025

311. Soul Setting Over Goal Setting: A Year-End Reflection for Women Entrepreneurs In this quiet but powerful close-to-the-end-of-the-year episode, I'm inviting you into a deeper kind of reflection: not a noisy checklist of goals, but a wholehearted look at what your life and work have really been built on—and what needs to shift. I'm writing this after attending a funeral, and after finding out my Aunt Wendy passed away. Some of you met her in episode 148. Through these stories of grief and loss, I'm exploring how pause can bring clarity, and how to choose a slower, more intentional path into the new year. Whether you're a business owner, a creative, or simply someone craving alignment, this episode will guide you back into the truth of your work and the meaning behind it. This isn't about your social media calendar. It's not about your to-do list. This is about deeply connecting with YOU. There is no one else but you. What you'll hear about: How grief and pause can bring clarity The difference between soul setting and goal setting Journal prompts to help process the past year with depth and direction Aligning your business with your real rhythms (not hustle habits) How to return to yourself—and your why—before a new chapter begins Want support with your own year-end clarity? Two additional 1:1 year-end planning sessions have been opened for listeners of this episode.

310. How One Courageous Conversation Led to 11.6 Million Lives Impacted with Carrie Rich 12/09/2025

310. How One Courageous Conversation Led to 11.6 Million Lives Impacted with Carrie Rich You know that idea pulling at your heart? The one you immediately follow up with "who am I to do this?" Carrie Rich had one of those ideas while mopping hospital floors as a graduate student. She didn't wait until she had it all figured out. She cracked a joke in an attendance meeting. Made one bold ask. Then another. Then another. Now? Her work has impacted 11.6 million lives across 70 countries through the Global Good Fund. But here's what really changed everything for Carrie: a stack of napkins pushed across a desk and one question - "Do you have a financial life plan?" At 25 years old, her boss walked her through mapping her life in increments. Not just her career. Her entire life. What she wanted to fund. What "enough" actually looked like. How to plan for children she didn't have yet, travel dreams, philanthropy goals, continuing education. That napkin exercise became the foundation for everything she built. If you're dealing with economic anxiety, struggling to access funding, or questioning whether your business can make it through uncertain times - this conversation will light something up inside you. Carrie shares why women only receive 2% of venture capital, what actually makes entrepreneurs fundable, and how to define what "enough" looks like for YOU (not what Instagram says you should want). This is episode 310 of the Game On Girlfriend podcast. I'm Sarah Walton, and I help women entrepreneurs build businesses they love through authentic sales strategies and money mindset work. Ready to grab your own stack of napkins? Let's do this. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN: How to stay courageous when you're scared Turning your values into capital & momentum Making bold moves without burning out A transparent look at financial planning for women entrepreneurs Supporting underrepresented founders through mentorship & venture support Related Episodes You Might Love Ep 95: When Your Life Falls Apart Because of Money (And Your Career Is Born) Ep 214: Coaching the Unconscious Mind: Unlock Your Genius Ep 1: Don't Live A Life of "Almosts" Connect with Carrie Rich Website: Facebook: Instagram: YouTube: LinkedIn: About Carrie Rich Carrie Rich believes in making the world better through business and leadership. That is why she co-founded The Global Good Fund over a decade ago to invest in high-potential, overlooked social entrepreneurs. Many entrepreneurs need access to capital to scale, so Carrie went on to found and manage the Global Impact Fund, which is dedicated to investing in socially impactful businesses, primarily led by overlooked founders. Her fourth book, Impact The World: Live Your Values and Drive Changes as a Citizen Statesperson, was published by Wiley in May 2022 and is now a WSJ and Amazon Best Seller. Carrie gives back by serving on corporate and nonprofit boards and by volunteering in her local community with her three young children.

308. What Trauma Actually Costs Entrepreneurs (And Why Sean/a's Story Will Restore Your Faith) | Dr. Kirsten Viola Harrison 11/25/2025

308. What Trauma Actually Costs Entrepreneurs (And Why Sean/a's Story Will Restore Your Faith) | Dr. Kirsten Viola Harrison We're harsh with each other right now. Judging people we don't know based on where they live or how they voted. But what if we got curious instead? Dr. Kirsten Viola Harrison spent 35 years as a trauma psychologist working with severe PTSD, dissociative identity disorder, schizophrenia, and near-death experience survivors. This conversation changed how I see everyone—including myself. High achievers are often high-functioners—people who've adapted to trauma in remarkably creative ways. The executive who never misses a deadline might be falling apart inside. The entrepreneur who appears unstoppable could be privately compensating for relationships that are struggling. Dr. Harrison explains the hidden costs of trauma that show up in our businesses and relationships. She shares the BASC framework (behavior, affect, sensation, knowledge) and why severe trauma creates protective barriers that help us survive but can limit our ability to connect later. We also talk about Sean/a's story—an intersex woman with schizophrenia who slept on cardboard for eight years. One rainy night, one moment of compassion changed everything. Ten years later, she's never been back on the streets. She walks 15 miles a day, has a million social media views, and teaches thousands about resilience. This episode is for anyone who's survived something hard. For anyone loving someone who's struggling. For anyone wondering if we're going to make it as humans. There’s hope here. And truth. And a reminder that healing isn’t linear, but it is real. What You'll Learn The hidden cost of trauma most don’t recognize What near-death experiences reveal about the mind and soul Understanding Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID) in real life Spirituality as a tool for post-traumatic growth The inspiring story of Sean/a—intersex, unhoused, and profoundly human How empathy, curiosity, and storytelling remake the world Related Episodes You Might Like Ep 263: How Your Nervous System Shapes Your Money Habits with Stephanie Crochet Ep 196: Are You a Lazy Overachiever? with Naketa Ren Thigpen Ep 207: Let Your Ambition Fly with Monique Allen Connect with Dr. Kirsten Viola Harrison About Dr. Kirsten Viola Harrison Dr. Kirsten Viola Harrison is a trauma psychologist, author, and founder of Soul Wise Solutions. For over 35 years, she has helped individuals navigate profound psychological and spiritual transitions — including those living with complex PTSD (C-PTSD), dissociative identity disorder, schizophrenia, and near-death experiences. Her integrative approach blends clinical expertise with compassionate soul work to support true, lasting healing. She is the co-author of “I, Sean/a: The Story of a Homeless Intersex Woman Who Inspired a Community,” the true account of Sean/a Smith, an intersex woman with schizophrenia whose life defies stigma and inspires change. Together, they advocate for an end to outdated medical practices and a future rooted in dignity and inclusion. Whether she’s speaking, writing, or working with clients, Dr. Harrison brings insight, depth, and humanity to conversations about trauma, identity, and transformation.

307. Stop Hustling & Start Leading with Grace: The Grace Codes with Dr. Kelly Martin Schuh 11/18/2025

307. Stop Hustling & Start Leading with Grace: The Grace Codes with Dr. Kelly Martin Schuh You can't 10X your business by just working harder. Actually, the harder you push, the more you push away what you're trying to create. Dr. Kelly Martin Schuh shares The Grace Codes framework—and this conversation wrecked me in the best way. Five hours into climbing Mount Kilimanjaro, a guide asked Dr. Kelly to hand over her backpack. She refused. Every other woman had surrendered theirs, but she insisted she was fine. Then she realized she was weaving on the trail—a sign of oxygen deprivation she hadn't even noticed. The truth? It took 28 porters and guides to get 5 women to the summit. You need a village to scale anything meaningful. But first, you've gotta say yes when someone offers help. In this episode: The Grace Codes framework (Release, Reclaim, Rewrite, Receive), power amnesia, worthiness work, and why the woman who got you here won't take you to your next level without burning you out. Dr. Kelly is the founder of the Gen X 10X movement. She recently raised $40K climbing Kilimanjaro to build a school in Tanzania. What You'll Learn The Grace Codes: 4 steps from survival to surrender (Release, Reclaim, Rewrite, Receive) Why "power amnesia" keeps you from remembering how powerful you are How to separate worthiness from productivity and bank account balance Why receiving is the hardest step for high-achieving women How Dr. Kelly went from $130K in debt to tripling her business without working harder What Human Design reveals about your energetic blueprint for success The Great Pause is happening right now, and what it means for women entrepreneurs Why it takes a village to 10X anything meaningful Related Episodes You Might Love Episode 270: The Truth About Learning to Manifest with Alea Lovely Episode 227: How to Clear a Money Fog with Mikelann Valterra Episode 299: From Corporate Layoffs to Creative Freedom with Trinette Faint Special gift from Dr. Kelly Martin Schuh Free Human Design Chart: Discover your unique energetic blueprint for 10Xing your success without the hustle.

298. How to Become Your Own Bank: Infinite Banking for Women Entrepreneurs with Erica Neal 09/16/2025

298. How to Become Your Own Bank: Infinite Banking for Women Entrepreneurs with Erica Neal What if the key to financial freedom wasn't another retirement account… but a completely different way of thinking about money? In this episode of The Game On Girlfriend® Podcast, Sarah sits down with finance educator and founder Erica Neal to talk about infinite banking—a strategy that uses custom-designed life insurance policies to help you grow wealth, keep liquidity, and still protect your future. What You'll Learn Erica shares her unfiltered story: from teen mom to Wall Street to building her own wealth management firm, centered on empowering financial education. The conversation dives into: What infinite banking actually is (and the myths that keep people nervous) How the wealthy use these policies for funding projects, reinvesting, and creating a legacy Why compounding interest and control matter more than flashy returns Erica's "buried vs. planted" concept—how to grow through challenging seasons Episode Summary This isn't your typical financial advice episode. Erica breaks down exactly how infinite banking works with real numbers - you typically get 80% access to your money in year one, dollar-for-dollar by year four, and often more than you put in by year five thanks to compound growth. She tackles the biggest concerns head-on, like why those acquisition costs aren't actually problems, but rather smart, long-term moves. You'll hear how to use policy loans while your money keeps earning, why dividends from mutual insurance companies add extra returns, and how this fits with your other investments instead of replacing them. Erica's journey from Wall Street product-pusher to genuine wealth strategist shows what happens when you put clients first.

Though she was able to obtain success & company recognition for her achievements, Erica knew there was a better way to build her clients' wealth. To provide more comprehensive strategies for her clients, Erica left the large box company to join a boutique, independent financial firm where her planning process transitioned from a narrow focus on rate of return to building efficient cash flow strategies and increasing income through alternative assets and the Infinite Banking Concept. In addition to expanding her financial planning methods, Erica also began to invest in real estate. Eventually, Erica and David White decided to merge their practices and open their own firm to focus on their passion…. cash flow strategy. Since co-launching Infinity Investment Strategies, Erica has continued to build her real estate portfolio as both a passive and active investor, acquire businesses, and provide resources on Infinite Banking education and services for investors. As an Authorized IBC Practitioner, Erica provides information and resources to investors and business owners about the power of the Infinite Banking Concept in their portfolio. As a speaker, Erica's expertise extends to the intersection of mindset and money, unraveling the barriers that hinder personal growth and prevent individuals from realizing their fullest potential and building wealth. Having become the "Go To" group for creative financial strategies and Infinite Banking, Erica continues to build her businesses and educate on "Real Money Truths", de-mystifying how to build wealth and helping others create a strategic plan for generational impact.

296. Money, Motherhood & Multifamily: Creating True Freedom With Mandy McAllister 09/02/2025

296. Money, Motherhood & Multifamily: Creating True Freedom With Mandy McAllister What does real financial freedom look like for a mom? It's not about choosing between wealth and presence - it's about creating both. In this powerful conversation, Sarah sits down with real estate investor and GoBundance Women leader Mandy McAllister to explore how women can build genuine freedom through smart property investing. Mandy's story starts with a tear-filled breakdown in a hospital parking lot and transforms into a blueprint for escaping corporate burnout without sacrificing family time. From medical device sales to building a real estate empire centered on values (not hustle), she proves that you can think bigger, move smarter, and stop waiting to prioritize your real life. This isn't your typical real estate podcast episode. This is about feminine energy in business, receiving instead of forcing, and creating wealth with intention rather than endless grinding. Whether you're starting from scratch or ready to level up your existing portfolio, consider this your permission slip to finally take action. What You'll Learn The exact moment Mandy knew she had to leave corporate (and how $2,000 in rental income saved her) Why multifamily investing beats single-family properties every time Her house hacking strategy that eliminates housing costs while building wealth How to manage properties with intention, not burnout The difference between masculine "attack mode" and feminine receiving energy in business Practical steps for moms who want both wealth and presence with their families Why going bigger in real estate is actually easier (and the government incentives that prove it) How she turned property renovation into bonding time with her teenage daughter Episode Summary Beyond the real estate strategies, this episode reveals the deeper transformation possible when women reject hustle culture for sustainable wealth building. Mandy's house hacking approach eliminates housing costs while the live-in flip method can generate hundreds of thousands in tax-free profits - but the real magic happens in the mindset shifts. The conversation explores why multifamily properties offer better financing and easier management than single-family investments, with government incentives that make larger deals more accessible. Mandy's daily dashboard system allows her to manage 373 units without being tied to her phone, proving that scaling doesn't require sacrificing presence. A standout moment involves Mandy and her 15-year-old daughter spending 36 hours renovating a rental unit together - work that created deeper bonding than typical parent-teen interactions while teaching practical wealth-building skills. This hands-on approach demonstrates how real estate investing can strengthen family relationships while building generational wealth. Sarah and Mandy discuss their upcoming collaboration and the movement they're creating for women who refuse to choose between financial success and family connection. The episode includes exclusive access to Mandy's signature course for listeners ready to begin their own real estate journey.
