Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed T.M. Robinson-Mosley.
Summary of the Interview: Dr. T.M. Robinson-Mosley on Money Making Conversations Masterclass
Dr. T.M. Robinson-Mosley—founder of The Playbook, an award‑winning mental‑health‑performance sports‑tech company—joins Rushion McDonald to discuss how her platform is transforming athlete care, team culture, and performance measurement. The Playbook uses AI‑powered, gamified psychological assessments to measure stress, resilience, and overall mental well‑being across youth, collegiate, professional, and military sports environments.
Mosley explains how mental health—long treated as unmeasurable and stigmatized—is finally becoming trackable, private, and actionable. The Playbook provides real‑time alerts, data‑driven insights, and ecosystem‑wide tools for coaches, trainers, clinicians, and entire organizations.
She also shares her journey as a non‑coding tech founder, the scaling challenges brought on by the pandemic, and the broader impact The Playbook is poised to have across corporate, construction, military, and other high‑stress fields.

If an athlete’s score enters the “red zone,” coaches/clinicians receive immediate alerts with steps to take within 24 hours.

Coaches, front offices, sports medicine staff, and military leadership also use the platform—promoting culture-wide mental health.
6. The Playbook is expanding beyond sports

7. A critical solution for underserved communities
The platform makes mental health care accessible, private, digital, and stigma‑free—especially for youth and communities of color.
8. Performance is universal

Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Dr. Willie Jolley.
Summary of the Interview: Dr. Willie Jolley on Money Making Conversations Masterclass
Dr. Willie Jolley—Hall of Fame speaker, bestselling author, and longtime SiriusXM host—joins Rushion McDonald to discuss his new book Rich Is Good, Wealthy Is Better. The conversation focuses on redefining wealth, transforming money mindsets, developing discipline, and overcoming setbacks to build generational prosperity.
Throughout the interview, Dr. Jolley shares insights gathered over 20 years of interviewing billionaires, CEOs, and major wealth creators. He outlines the crucial difference between being rich (high income) and being wealthy (owning assets that work without you). He emphasizes the role of discipline, humility, learning, and generational thinking in achieving sustainable wealth.
The interview closes with Jolley’s personal comeback story—from nightclub singer to world‑renowned speaker—and his message that it’s never too late to change your financial future.
Purpose of the Interview
The interview aims to:
1. Promote and explain Jolley’s new book
“Rich Is Good, Wealthy Is Better,” which clarifies the difference between income-based wealth (rich) and asset‑based, multi‑generational wealth (wealthy).
2. Teach listeners how to shift their money mindset
Jolley walks through the five levels of money thinking, showing how most Americans operate in the lower levels due to habit or lack of knowledge.
3. Encourage financial independence and discipline
Listeners—especially entrepreneurs and families—learn the role of discipline, insurance, multiple income streams, and investment.
4. Provide motivation through Jolley’s story
His setback-to-comeback story proves that financial and personal reinvention is possible at any age.
5. Address generational wealth and financial stewardship
The book is also written for parents/grandparents worried their heirs may squander what they built.
Key Takeaways 1. The crucial difference between rich and wealthy
Rich = working income; stops when you stop.
Wealthy = assets + systems; money works even when you don’t.
Rich is “good”—but wealth is “better” because it is sustainable.
2. Wealth begins with mindset
Jolley identifies five money mindsets:
One‑day mindset (daily survival)
30‑day mindset (check-to-check)
One‑year mindset
Decade mindset (athletes/entertainers)
Generational mindset (true wealth builders)
His goal: move people one level higher.
3. Discipline is the #1 lever for wealth
Wealth requires:
Living below your means
Consistent investment
Protecting what you have
Maintaining health, relationships, reputation, and intellectual capital
4. The “Five Types of Wealth”
Financial wealth
Health wealth
Relationship wealth
Reputational/brand wealth
Intellectual capital wealth
All contribute to long-term prosperity.
5. The 3 Legs of Wealth
Income
Save & invest the difference
Insurance to protect assets (life, health, disability, long‑term care)
6. At least two streams of income are essential
Examples: stocks, real estate, crypto, collectibles, content creation.
7. Pride destroys wealth
People overspend to look successful rather than be successful.
Pride → debt → stress → financial ruin.
Humility → learning → planning → wealth.
8. It’s never too late to become wealthy
He shares stories of:
A domestic worker who died with $2.7M
A secretary who accumulated $8M
A former drug dealer who reached nearly $900K starting at age 65
All achieved wealth by small investments over long periods.
9. A setback is a setup for a comeback
Jolley’s message is deeply motivational:
Losing his singing job led him into speaking
Speaking led to radio
Radio led to books
Books led to global influence
He frames adversity as opportunity.
Notable Quotes (from the transcript) On Wealth vs. Rich
“Rich is good. Wealthy is better.”
“Regular folks work for their money. Wealthy people make their money work for them.”
On Mindset
“Wealth starts in your mind.”
“It’s hard to hit what you can’t see—and even harder to hit what you don’t know.” (on knowing the target)
On Discipline
“The key to success in growing wealth is discipline.” [
On Pride
“My pride was killing my wealth. I had to let the pride go so I could grab hold of the wealth.”
On Setbacks
“A setback is a setup for your greater comeback.”
“Your setback is not the end of the story unless you choose it to be.”
On Starting Late
“Anybody can become wealthy if you use these principles.”
“When is the best time to plant a tree? 80 years ago. The second-best time? Today.”
In One Sentence
The interview teaches that becoming wealthy is less about income and more about mindset, discipline, humility, and long-term planning—and that anyone can build generational wealth starting right now.
