The classic fable "The Tortoise and the Hare" illustrates that slow and steady progress leads to success. This same principle applies to reaching financial contentment: patience and persistence are key; it is a marathon, not a sprint.
Today you’ll hear from Tae Kim, the creative mind behind the Financial Tortoise YouTube Channel. Through his unique content and minimalist philosophy, Tay teaches us that having "enough" is powerful. He shares how a simple, intentional approach to money can lead to a fulfilling financial life.
Building Wealth with Intention
(12:24) - Exploring Creative Income Opportunities
(24:13) - Creating Niche Content for Business Owners
(28:12) - Seeking Balance and Having Enough
(29:46) - Overcoming Challenges and Embracing Possibilities
"It's very important and for me the idea of enough, what is your enough, because there’s a lot of people within the space now who don't have a good definition of enough, and they're just constantly seeking more and more and more. You become unbalanced in your life and that's not healthy. So for me that's a very important component to balance, knowing my enough.” - Tae Kim

True abundance encompasses much more than just wealth—it's about time, health, and having the freedom to live life on your own terms.
Joining the show today is the remarkable Jenn Drummond, author of BreakProof and the first woman to scale the Seven Second Summits. Jenn's journey is a testament to redefining success, balancing career and family, and living a truly vibrant life.
Jenn shares candid insights from her early days of cold calling to growing a thriving business to becoming a successful podcast host. We talk about the grit and strategy needed to transition from an employee mindset to a CEO mentality, and how to set and achieve goals for yourself while accepting help from others along the way.
A life-threatening car accident and the loss of a friend prompted Jenn to reevaluate her priorities, leading her to focus on mindset, teamwork, and health as key components of success. As a mother of seven, she is dedicated to leading by example, teaching her children the value of living fully and nurturing their mental well-being.
To Jenn, abundance is synonymous with freedom—freedom of time, health, and finances. She emphasizes the significance of energy management over time management and pursuing what truly matters most.

It takes more than a few episodes to attract a large audience and more than just posting on social media to get the word out about your podcast. If you’ve been podcasting for a short while and aren’t feeling the love or thought you’d be reading more people by now, this episode is for you.
Learn about the three pillars of podcast growth and take the self-audit questionnaire to discover where your biggest gaps are. With that information, you can lean into the specific tactics explained in that category to grow your online presence.
Perhaps it won't surprise you to find that growing a podcast is very similar to growing a business. You need to be findable, to provide a product (content) people WANT from you, and you need to be taking intentional steps to expose your business/show to new people multiple times each month.
Effective Strategies to Enhance Your Podcast's Visibility
- A well-optimized website featuring your show
- Topics your listeners crave with episode titles containing phrases they’d actually search for
- “Networking” in the podcast world by featuring guests and being a guest
- Attending online summits, in-person conferences, and similar events where your ideal client/listener is also in attendance
- Post on social media based on the way your target listener consumes social media
Which of the three areas should you focus on first? Content, Visibility, or Networking?
Take the self-assessment inside this episode to find out OR book a podcast audit with me here and I’ll provide customized tips toward growth just for your brand.
