Earn Your Happy

Are you growing your business and making more money, but still wondering if you’re building the wealth and freedom you want? In this episode, Chris and I sit down with Phil and Trish Calandra, CEO and Co-Founder of TruWealth Advisors, to talk about the difference between generating revenue and building long-term wealth. They break down the “revenue trap,” why having multiple financial experts doesn’t always mean you have a unified strategy, and how entrepreneurs can create a clearer path toward their personal wealth freedom number. We also talk about the money stories that can shape your financial decisions, why women entrepreneurs can put their own wealth goals last, and what it means to become work optional. Tune in to learn how you can make your business work toward the freedom you want.

Are you holding on too tightly to people, opportunities, or business strategies that have already run their course? In this episode, Chris and I talk about why life and business are always changing, and how much of the pain comes from expecting things to stay the same. We share how friendships, income streams, and business chapters have evolved throughout our lives and why learning to enjoy what you have while you have it is just as important as knowing when to pivot. Get ready to rethink how you handle change and start seeing what could be waiting around the corner.

Does your business still need you to make every decision, solve every problem, and make sure everything gets done? In this episode, I sit down with former Google, Apple, and Microsoft team expert Lia Garvin to talk about how to stop being the bottleneck and build a team that actually helps your business make more money. Lia shares the simple systems that can free up your time, make delegation easier, eliminate unnecessary meetings and expenses, and give your team the clarity to take real ownership.

We also talk about how to know whether you have the wrong person or they simply haven’t been led well, the conversations too many founders avoid, and how to create a culture of clear expectations without becoming a micromanager. If you’re ready to get out of the weeds, stop carrying your entire business on your shoulders, and build a team that can grow with you, this episode is for you.

Have you ever been trying so hard to make something happen that you end up feeling even more disconnected from it? In this episode, I share what I’ve been learning about manifestation, confidence, and getting back to a place of neutrality after a really challenging season in business. I talk about why forcing yourself to feel abundant can sometimes create more pressure, the questions that helped me take personal responsibility for what wasn’t working, and how getting neutral can help you reconnect with what’s already available to you. Get ready to release the pressure, trust yourself again, and start creating from a more aligned place.
