Ep. 66 – How I Manage My Money to Sustain Multiple Six Figures as a Breadwinner CEO

As a daughter of immigrants who is one generation removed from poverty, I KNOW how activating money can be in business. This episode is how I had to drastically shift how I THINK about money so I could make more than “just enough” and actually sustain it. I have seen SO many WOC and daughters of immigrants hit a wall here – and this episode is dedicated to breaking past it.

In this episode, I pull back the curtain on how I manage (and THINK about) my business revenue as a single mom breadwinner CEO—someone who pays herself every single month and takes a six figure salary from her business.

Every dollar in your business has a job to do.

If it’s sitting in your account just to make you feel safe, but you have Profit Problems you don’t know how to solve, you might be keeping your business stuck on your own dime.

This episode is for anyone who’s navigating the very real tension of needing their business to be profitable because they pay the bills with their business—yet not always feeling safe enough to do what it takes to make sure that happens.

Here’s what I break down:

• What changes when you have to take a salary vs. when you don’t
• The difference between thinking about business revenue like a CEO vs. like an employee. It’s not your money – it’s belongs to the business.
• How I decide what investments to make, keep, and stop
• The exact order I prioritize where my money goes (spoiler: it’s not salary first)

This episode is about radical honesty, smart risk, and making sure your money is solving the right problems in your business.

Especially if you’ve ever said:

“Can I really afford to invest in this right now?”

or

“Am I just pulling a Jenga block that’s holding everything up?”

Press play. 

If this episode spoke to you —this is the exact kind of work I do with my private clients.

We figure out:

• What problems your business actually needs to solve right now
• Where your support system needs tightening
• And how to prioritize your investments based on what sustains and grows your income
