Show Notes

Today I'm weighing in my two cents on the topic of easy money and big money, and the idea that the easy money will often cost you the big money.

Today I'm sharing just why I think we all need to stop saying yes to the easy money, and starting creating space for the big money to come through.

kind of explain what I mean by this. Recently Lori and I sat down and we reviewed

1:09.2

our goals like we always do and we're talking about the number of actions the number of things we said

1:16.2

yes to for blank amount of money each one that really zapped us of all of our

energy and all of our time and all of our
