The world is open and we are all "outside". Not only are we traveling and going out to eat but, we are hiring and utilizing service providers now more than ever.

Jun 26, 2022
Show notes
There’s a shift happening in the job market--and it's not the one you've been hearing about. While the news continues to highlight "The Great Resignation" you may need to look twice before quitting that job. With more job openings than ever, and the lowest unemployment rate we've had in years, employees may be getting tricked into making less money and receiving less benefits. On this episode we talk about both sides of what's happening in the job market, where it's happening and how to prepare for your success either way.
82: Celebrating Juneteenth
Jun 19, 2022
Show notes
As we celebrate Juneteenth, brands across the country are launching products, events and marketing strategies to try and cash in on the holiday. Here’s the problem: Monetizing the celebration of Black freedom contradicts the very sentiment that drives Juneteenth. Black people were among this country’s first forms of currency, and the celebration of Juneteenth reminds us of that not-so-distant past. Giving your money to white-owned businesses that slap Black fists on their packaging as a marketing strategy can add insult to injury. So on this episode we talk about legitimate ways to spend, buy and support Black-owned businesses.

May 29, 2022

In the aftermath of several mass shootings in one week, many Americans want to do something--anything--to help but, feel helpless. Petitions, donations and voting are all clear ways to start a path towards change but there is a very effective and immediate impact you can have from the comfort of your living room: changing your investments. Most investors are completely oblivious to how they are--and have been--funding gun production and warfare through their retirement accounts and investment portfolios. On this episode we tell you exactly how to uncover if/where this applies to you and how to defund these organizations in real time.
