Episode • May 28 • 47m

What happens when your business grows—but your personal finances and mindset can’t keep up?

As entrepreneurs, we love the freedom of being our own boss. But have you stopped to consider the hidden costs? Are your financial structures and beliefs actually supporting your long-term well-being—or silently sabotaging it?

In this episode of Success Genius, I’m joined by the brilliant Mark Butler—fractional CFO, bookkeeper, and mini coach—to explore the deeply personal side of business ownership. We dive into the rarely discussed truth about fluctuating income, the emotional toll of financial uncertainty, and why traditional employment might feel “safer” even when it’s not.

Together, we challenge the myth of stability, reframe what financial success really means, and uncover how redefining your relationship with money and work can set you free—not just professionally, but personally.
This is a must-listen if you’ve ever struggled to separate your business goals from your financial peace of mind.

Topics covered in this episode include:

●The hidden financial realities of entrepreneurship
●How income variability impacts personal and family well-being
●The trade-offs between employment and self-employment
●Rethinking the concept of retirement in today’s economy

Whether you're navigating the highs and lows of business ownership or considering a shift in your financial mindset, this episode is a must-listen.

Tune in for a candid conversation that challenges traditional beliefs and helps you create a business that truly supports your life.
