And now you have a new book out. It's called Main Street Millionaire. So I can't wait to find out how we can all become Main Street Millionaires.

Your salary will never set you free. Your financial freedom can only come through ownership, specifically through equity done the right way.

Main Street Millionaire will teach you how to negotiate with the company that you work for or with vendors that you work for for part of businesses you already fully understand. Partial equity. That could be your first tiptoe into ownership.

I think Russell Brunson is the GOAT, by the way. He's my client also. His book Expert Secrets really drove home the importance of storytelling and building trust in the funnel.

When I was building my own funnel, I kept coming back to the frameworks in Expert Secrets - especially the hookstoryoffer formula that drives the entire sales process.

If you read my book, Expert Secrets, I tell people like, you need to do a live webinar every single week until you master that one presentation.

Lori ... best-selling author of A Tribe Called Bliss.

I have a book that is called A Tribe Called Bliss. At the time, I was doing an event called The Bliss Project. Essentially in the book, I define bliss as a place you create for yourself, not external. The book is based off of the event, with exercises we did, and it's about breaking through superficial relationships and finding your purpose. The book essentially is the four agreements book that I absolutely love, covering the seven agreements of relationships.

I know you have a book that is called A Tribe Called Bliss. Can you talk to us about what a bliss tribe is? At the time I was doing an event called The Bliss Project. It was a book I defined bliss as more of a place that you create for yourself. It's not external, it's all internal. It's what you decide in your life you can experience bliss right now and in order to create and build a life that you want even more I'm not saying you shouldn't have the things or have it all because I do believe you should but you have to find that place within yourself and so the book was based off of the event because I put a lot of the exercises that we did in the event into the book and the book is about breaking through superficial relationships and finding your purpose and that's what the event essentially was about too because we broke everyone out. It was so many group exercises and I was just for watching these women transform finding and connecting to these other groups of likeminded women and so the book essentially is the Four Agreements book that I absolutely love.

author of the new book, The Five Types of Wealth.

the fact that there were really four things that kept coming up for everyone. It was time, people, purpose, and health. Those were the four things that everyone really focused on. And again, money was an enabler to some of those, but it wasn't really an end in and of itself.

I call it the energy calendar. There's another one that actually comes from Warren Buffett, where he asks you to create a list of your 25 priorities in life... the five things you circle are your true priorities.

bestselling author of The 5 Types of Wealth

And how did it end up influencing you to write this book? It was a huge part of creating this idea of the five types of wealth, of thinking about the fact that money was an enabler to a lot of the ends, but it was not an end in of itself.

In the book I walk people through an exercise called the Energy Calendar, where they colorcode each activity on their day as green if it creates energy, yellow if it's neutral, and red if it drains them.

I talk about the importance of focusing on one thing, the one thing that truly matters, and putting all your energy into it over the long term.

The media business I run includes a newsletter and the book, which together serve as the platform for the fivetypeofwealth framework.

And I talk about this in my book, Financial Feminist, but 80% of the personal finance equation is the systemic factors that you have no control of.

Another piece of advice from your book, Financial Feminist, is this idea of a financial priority list.

I wrote the book, Financial Feminist.

She's an internationally recognized money and career expert, sevenfigure entrepreneur, bestselling author, and top podcast host of the Financial Feminist Podcast.

She's a money expert and the author of Financial Feminist, and she encourages people to get curious about their spending instead of judging it.

I've had Dale Bredesen on my podcast who wrote The End of Alzheimer's.

The groundbreaking book that brought the risks of advanced AI into the main conversation, as well as the book Deep Utopia, which explores what life might look like in a world where all our problems are solved.

Deep Utopia doesn't really say anything about the likelihood okay it's more an if then okay so in a sense the previous book super intelligence looked at how might things go wrong and what can we do to reduce those risks Deep Utopia looks at the other side of the coin what if things go right what then what happens if AI actually succeeds...

His books are so interesting, guys. Super intelligence, Deep Utopia, very, very good stuff.

Did you remember the book, The Game? No. Okay. So yeah, this was a while ago, but it was a guy, I'm a little fuzzy on it, but it was this guy, he wrote a book, and essentially it's teaching men how to get a woman to be obsessed with you.

In The Obstacle Is the Way, I sort of break this art of turning difficulty or problems into an advantage or into an opportunity.

Remember, The Obstacle Is the Way.
