I want you to have huge crazy goals but you also have to set those small milestones to have quick momentum. Achieving small, bite-size goals allows you to keep your focus and momentum along with a positive attitude.

Is it wrong to want nice things? NO. Not only do I believe that it's not wrong to desire more...I believe it's wrong of you to NOT desire more. I think it's your freaking DUTY to want more. And here's why. If you are living pay check to paycheck...how much can you donate to the church? Let's say you're making $30,000 and you try really really hard to donate 10% but some months, you don't even know how you're making the rent payment so you realistically only donate 5% = $1,500.If you become a millionaire, even if you stayed only donating 5%....that's $50,000 you're donating to your church. Let's say, since you figured out your finances, that you can now donate 10%...that's 100,000......HOW MUCH MORE OF AN IMPACT DOES THAT MAKE?When you, as a wonderful, good-hearted human being, become wealth AF, everyone around you thrives. Your community thrives, your fav org's thrive. EVERYONE WINS. When you are out of survival mode and you start thriving...your overflow of money, pours into those around you.You're here for more than surviving. You're here to thrive. 

OPTIMIZE > SACRIFICE When I first started finances.... I was a BIG sacrifice girl. Tangible tips to optimize without sacrifice:-Youtube tv/firestick instead of cable-Aldi instead of targe-Make a grocery list-Wash fruits & veggies + freeze when getting close-Canceling gym membership if you don't use it & doing free classes--traveling (day pass fo free)-Check on work discounts-Library for book + DVD rentals-Buy a nice lil coffee maker to pay off in long run -Negotiating (DUH)-Ibotta -Energy costs (turn air down while you are at work or out of town)-Sell ya old clothes-Invite friends over-Switch banks 

Did you guys ever have 3 way calls with your girlfriends in 7th grade?Imagine if your money was on a 3 way call with you and your boyfriend, or mom or sister or best friend. Imagine if money was a person & could sit and listened to you talk shit about it. Your language around money is important and impactful on the way money shows up in your life. If you are negative, unappreciative, complaining and mad when other people have money...that doesn't attract more money to you. Remember that money could be listening in on your 3 way call & make it a good call to listen in on. Thanks for tuning in & remember to screenshot & tag me on Instagram! 

For most people, their favorite cocktail is either vision OR action, but not a 50/50 shaken not stirred mix of the two. So through this podcast, I am going to have a mix of vision based content--beliefs, mindset, inner-childhood scars, dreams & motivation. And I am also going to have a mix of action based content--tangible tips, the process, the numbered steps, the logic. Whichever you lean more toward naturally, take the time to listen to the others as well. Today's pod is all about ACTION.

It only makes complete sense that I choose my favorite thing to talk about on this 1st episode, because it also happens to be one of the top things sabotaging most millennials. And here it is: *cue the trumpet into of trumpets by Jason Derulo* You don't believe your dreams are possible. Here's the bottom line. I can tell you all my secrets about budgeting. I can teach you how to save like it's nobody's biz-nez. But for today, I want to remind you: Your dream isn't stupidand damn it! your dream isn't impossible either. So, hold onto it. Hold onto that dream because all the tactical tips you are going to learn from this podcast will move you closer to that dream, but only if you believe it's yours. 

Welcome to the introduction and FIRST EVER episode of the deeper than money podcast. As the great urban poet Cardi B once said, "But nothing in this world that I like more than checks (Money). All I really wanna see is the (Money)."This podcast will be all the stuff you wish you would have learned in college, and all the stuff you need to reach toward that millionaire status (or maybe for you right now...you're just trying to reach towards pay-day -- this is for you too). On the deeper than money podcast, we will start with short solo episodes to teach you some basic finances to boost up your knowledge & start making some money moves. We will also bring you money-making-machine guests, to push you to dream bigger & give you tactile advice to grow that bank account. I hope you enjoy this intro episode to the DTM podcast & if you're excited for this podcast & ready for some free & fun new episodes to come, subscribe to the podcast + screenshot & share & tag me @deeper.than.money on Instagram! See you on the next episode!
