This week (as we promised several weeks ago) we are airing our guest appearance on the Money Plan SOS podcast with fellow coach Steve Stewart. Show notes: Episode 57: Real Life Financial Case Study with Financial Coach Steve Stewart, April 27, 2011. This week (as we promised several weeks ago) we are airing our guest appearance on the Money Plan SOS podcast with fellow coach Steve Stewart. Show notes: We discuss a real couple's financial situation. They have a construction-related business with a lot of debt from the business and a lot of personal debt as well. Steve tuned into how the spouse feels during times of financial stress. We sometimes get carried away talking about what to do and we sometimes forget to think about how it feels to be in these situations. When you're self employed, you have to make sure the business is profitable and set aside money for taxes. If you don't, it WILL catch up with you like it did for this couple.

Episode 53: One Year Anniversary of the Podcast: Business Lessons We Learned Over the Last Year, March 30, 2011. In today's show we take a look back at the last year since we started this podcast and share some of the lessons we learned about being in business as financial coaches. These lessons learned don't apply solely to coaching or service-related businesses. They're applicable to all businesses in general. Show notes: Business is not easy, especially when you're dedicated to operating debt free. We talk about how we've grown without debt. You can't just set up shop and expect customers to beat down your door. You need to work at marketing yourself and your business. Matt discusses the things that need to be in your business plan to protect you from the mistakes he made. You can influence what we talk about in future shows.
