We love good branding. We love visibility. We love looking successful.
But in this episode, I’m challenging you to ask a deeper question: Is your business actually profitable?
I’m joined by financial powerhouse Toki Simmons, and together we break down what it really takes to make—and keep—money as a business owner. We talk about the difference between revenue, profit, and cash flow, why high income doesn’t always equal success, and how paying yourself starts with mindset, habits, and systems—not just more sales.
We dig into pricing for profit (not popularity), how emotional pricing hurts your bottom line, when to hire support without breaking your business, and why structure doesn’t limit creativity—it creates freedom. Toki also shares how to forecast realistically, plan for seasonal cash flow, and make confident financial decisions heading into the next year.
If you’re tired of building a “pretty” business that doesn’t actually pay you, this conversation will help you shift from fear and avoidance to clarity, confidence, and control over your money.
This episode is about listening to the story your numbers are telling—and finally letting your business work for you.
