    How to Position Your Family for Generational Wealth

    With everybody and their mama out here talking about generational wealth, you would think the days of starting GoFundMe campaigns to cover burial expenses were over.

    They are not.

    There are still 106 million adults who either do not have life insurance or are underinsured. So let me ask you, is your insurance policy up to date? Does it properly cover all the “things?” If not, you’re not only putting your family at great risk for having to take on your final expenses, you are also putting their future at risk.

    So how do you position yourself to create generational wealth? One way is through life insurance and my guest today breaks down the importance of this very un-sexy topic in a way that’s easy to understand. 

     

    With over 30 years of experience at the Prudential Insurance Company of America, ShirleyAnn M. Robertson is a seasoned Financial Professional and Co-founder of Robertson and Robertson Financial Services. She's all about crafting personalized strategies for family protection, retirement, financial planning, education savings, and small businesses. 

     

    ShirleyAnn is passionate about helping you achieve financial success and firmly believes in the power of a solid life insurance plan!

     

    Listen as ShirleyAnn shares these Key Takeaways:

    • How a life-threatening accident taught her the importance of long-term care insurance

    • Why having a relationship with a financial professional is one of the smartest things you can do.

    • How to take control of your finances and build a solid financial foundation.

    3 Phrases to Avoid Using When Talking to Your Kids about Money - The Language of Wealth Pt. 1

    3 Phrases to Avoid Using When Talking to Your Kids about Money - The Language of Wealth Pt. 1

    "We're trying to rob Peter to pay Paul," was a phrase I heard a lot growing up. Seemed like everybody was just one check away from being flat broke. As a result of hearing these constant stories of lack and financial insecurity, I had to unlearn the "language of lack" and rewrite my money story.

    Can you relate?

    That's why as parents, we should be mindful of our words. What we say about money and how we interact with it is either going to teach our kids the language of lack or the language of wealth.

    In this episode I share 3 familiar phrases that we should avoid at all costs if we want our children to learn the language of wealth.

    • Do I look like an ATM to you?
    • We don't have the money for that.
    • Money don't grow on trees!

    Listen to get recommendations on what you should say instead.

    EP103 - Redefining Success: 4 things I’m doing to make it all feel  A LOT easier.

    I hate waking up with a feeling of panic, anxiety and dread but lately that’s what’s been happening. I found a way to combat it but I couldn’t help but wonder, “why is this occurring?”

    Through self-reflection, I discovered I was feeling this way because of the constant pressure to keep up with the never-ending demands of work and life. Add social media to the mix and it makes the pressure that much worse.

    Thankfully we can always reset and recalibrate and that’s exactly what I did. I found 4 new ideas to embrace to redefine success for me. I share them all in this episode.

    Sis, You Should Be Getting Paid for That! How Danette Buie went from giving free advice to creating a thriving coaching & consulting business

    Dani Buie  has always loved helping people. So much so that when people came to her for guidance on how to transition into different careers, she would help them for free!

    It didn't dawn on her that she could make good money as a coach or consultant until one of her free sessions ended with the woman saying, "I'd pay good money for the valuable insights you just gave me!"

    That was just the push Dani needed to start her entrepreneurial journey while maintaining her full-time job.

    In this episode, Dani shares part of that journey with us. Listen in as she explains:

    • The transition from free coaching to paid coaching
    • Dani's timeline between officially starting her business to getting the first in a long line of paid clients.
    • How her business changed when she began scaling and focusing on organizational clients.
    • How she manages her business while still working full time
    • How much revenue she's bringing in now, after less than 3 years in business.
    • How she's building generational wealth intentionally and she's under the age of 35.

    Dani also shares a compelling and emotional story about the "non-traditional" ways her mom invested in her and how Dani is paying her back.

    We squeezed a lot into these inspiring 37 minutes! Enjoy.

    EP 101 - Scale or Fail? The 3 major business lessons that shook me and what hubby and I decided to do about it.

    After coasting for years as a solopreneur, rapid expansion and new opportunities have begun to flood into OverFlow Enterprises. Suddenly this small operation is faced with the choice of turning away new business to keep things "manageable" or increasing it's capacity by scaling.

    But what does it mean to scale? At what point should a business do it and how do you start?

    These are some of the questions staring me in the face right now and I've got the perfect person to shed light on it. He's scaled his business from 0 to more than $100 million in revenue and it just so happens we live together.

    In this episode, my husband Tony R. Kitchens stops by the Sisternomics studio and shared some battle-tested insights about what scaling is and isn't and why getting back to business basics may be the best advice despite what you hear from all the gurus out in these internet streets.

    EP 100 - Know Your Value, Own Your Worth!

    EP 100 - Know Your Value, Own Your Worth!

    When tickets first went on sale for Beyonce's Renaissance World Tour, people went cray-zee! Some of the excitement was because she hadn't toured in a while but there was also shock because some tickets were selling for $2,000 and more!

    Meanwhile, over here at camp Sisternomics, we were singing Beyonce's praises. Why? Because through something as simple as a pricing strategy, Beyonce gave us a powerful example of what it looks like to know your value and own your worth AND to keep our emotions out of our money.

    You need to be ok with saying "yesterday's prices are NOT today's prices!"

    In this episode, I'll take a few minutes to unpack why it is so important to know your value and own your worth and HOW you can do so.
