Episode Details

Sometimes real health and wellness means getting comfortable with the uncomfortable- facing that music and talking about taboo topics. So let’s talk…

MONEY.

Too often we are slaves to money.  We grind for our paychecks, slaves to bills and rent/mortgage schedules, and the toys/trips/credit statements we rack up.  We pick up more overtime and then the new cycle is established.

It’s commonly accepted that financial issues are enough to shatter many marriages, and fracture even the best friendships and family bonds when business (and money dynamics) are mixed in.

Add in the first responder world.. yeah. Lots of long hours, missed holidays and traumatic exposure encourages us to live in the moment and spend on gifts and rewards for ourselves and our families.. who DOESN’T want that??

Today, Rebecca Jameson joins us as a first responder spouse and financial coach.  She and her deputy sheriff husband learned first hand what it was like to live in the moment, splurge due to long hours and rack up nearly 100 grand in debt. But here’s the kicker- they had that hard talk, took that hard look and turned it all around.

Now they are having their money work for them in businesses and real estate. We talk about how overtime can be a tool to leverage, how you can start small and modify your strategy to specific goals, and I compare Dave Ramsey to the keto diet.
