Today Jen and Niamh are talking about Money. Not just any money, but Jen’s Mastering Money Matters Program. This episode was recorded in the midst of Jen doing her very first launch for a special offer for MMM.
While we talk about money, let’s talk about fear of failure, insecurity, and the way imposter syndrome comes up around putting yourself out there to talk about a topic that you don’t have a certification in.
Jen tells the story of being suddenly confronted with massive medical bills when her daughter was diagnosed with Autism in 2010, back before ACA, when she had an individual family insurance policy that had an autism exclusion. This threw her finances into a giant jumbled mess between high, unexpected medical bills and irregular income from self-employment. In the midst of all of this financial confusion and while trying to set up an autism program for her kids, Jen had a medical bill sent to collections, not because she didn’t mean to pay it, just because she got confused. Then she missed a bill and had a late payment, then an overdraft charge. That was when she realized that she had to do something if she was going to get through this without bankrupting her family. What she learned through research, reading, taking courses and eventually talking with other women on her Financial Fluency podcast and working with women in small groups and one-on-one, is what is now in the Mastering Money Matters program.
Niamh also talks about her experience in the program herself, the changes she has made and the effects those changes have made in the past year and a half.

Do you know what, how, and when to measure and track key performance indicators (KPIs) in your business? Today on Financial Fluency, I’m excited to have Jennifer Love with me. Jennifer is an entrepreneur, advisor, and CEO and founder of One More Woman. Jennifer has advised Fortune 200 businesses, celebrities, and high-performing entrepreneurs. She’s even helped raise over $100 million in venture capital funding.
On the show, Jennifer tells me how her entrepreneurial career began. She was in graduate school studying to be CIA/FBI strategist when she received an interesting project: write a business plan for a casino. Jennifer admits she had no clue how to write a business plan. Twenty years ago, there wasn’t much available at her fingertips online. So she turned to books and working with the casino to understand the mindset of the customers. After Jennifer had submitted her proposal, the casino funded it.
Today, Jennifer strives to make sure women entrepreneurs do not feel alone. When women lack confidence or devalue themselves in business, it translates into how much money they make. So Jennifer created what she wished she had back in the day, One More Woman. One More Woman is an accelerator for female entrepreneurs who want to grow their revenue 10x and master financial literacy.
Her vision is to create an army of women entrepreneurs who move into successful businesses. She sees women redistributing their wealth around the world and making the impact they were born to make. Jennifer wants women to break through everything that’s holding them back in an environment that’s supportive and helpful.
Jennifer is hosting a 3-day Money Activation event in NYC that will help you understand your business and make numbers fun, so you feel empowered to make decisions. At the end of the course, you will:
Eliminate the stress that’s keeping you stuck when you are in your business.
Know how and what to track in your business so you can consistently generate income and make informed choices about where to invest.
Have a clear plan, financial model, and flow set up for your business that’s optimized to help you save time and money.

What would you do if $10,000 showed up in your bank account tomorrow? That’s a question my guest, Cassie Parks asks on today’s episode of Financial Fluency. Cassie is a best-selling author, entrepreneur, and founder of Manifest $10,000. On the show, Cassie shares how she made and manifested money by building multiple streams of income. She also explains the importance of rewarding yourself when you’ve been successful.
Cassie’s journey started when she was still working her corporate job and bought a house with bedrooms she could rent out. She found she could more than pay the mortgage with the rent she was collecting, and when the roommates moved out she decided to downsize her own living situation to a studio apartment so she could rent the entire house out. From there it was onwards and upwards as she added more rental properties to her portfolio. This way when she was ready to leave her corporate job to start her entrepreneurial career, she already had a source of significant income on her side. She capitalized on her entrepreneurial spirit and mindset to help her achieve her goals. Cassie found a coaching process she loved and started to work on her money mindset. With this, Cassie realized she could change things if she changed the way she thought. Cassie attributes her success to her money mindset and following her intuition in her real estate investing.
Our discussion covered the importance of creating multiple streams of income and working on your money mindset. Cassie recalls when she started to change her own mindset and habits. She stopped going to Target and the clearance racks, spending $200 on items she didn’t need. She says, when she learned to invest in what made her happy, she ended up with rental properties and a big pile of money.
Cassie’s Money Mindset Tips
Use your imagination. Visualize and tap into what it would be like to have $10,000k in your account. The “how” isn’t your job. Get crystal clear on what it looks like to have more money and make the small changes to be that person.
Modify the words you use. Look at the words “spend” and “invest.” The word “spend” has a negative feeling to it. When you start thinkings of purchases as investments, you end up feeling more in control of your money.
Experience some of the abundance, don’t wait. Be the person who has money instead of trying to be the person with money. Practice being that person by experience some of the things you want. If you can’t afford the $100 dinner, go out for happy hour or an appetizer instead and feel the ambiance instead of waiting.
