About this episode:
Your business can be crushing it while your money falls apart at home — and one quietly drains the other.
Mike Michalowicz, author of Profit First and nine other books, breaks down the system from his newest book, The Money Habit — think Profit First for your personal life, built on six bank accounts that work with how your brain is actually wired instead of against it.
For a landscape business owner, this is the missing half of the equation: your company is only ever as healthy as your finances at home — and when one side struggles, it quietly drains the other.
IN THIS EPISODE:
- Why budgets fail every time — and the "woolly mammoth" wiring that makes preserving money first the only thing that actually sticks
- The six foundational accounts (Income, Needs, Wants, Dreams, Fix/Future, Emergency) and how to split every dollar the moment it lands
- How to help your team get better with money without ever prying into their paychecks — and what their financial stress is quietly costing you
