    EP116: From Debt to Dividends - How Martha Transformed Her Money Mindset and Built Wealth

    Today’s episode is all about transforming the way you think about money—and you’re going to hear a story that proves it’s never too late to take control of your financial future. If you’ve ever felt stuck financially, overwhelmed by debt, or unsure how to start investing, this conversation is packed with insights, motivation, and actionable steps to help you take charge of your money—starting today. My guest is Martha Menard, a former healthcare researcher turned financial coach who has turned a personal money wake-up call into a thriving practice and a $44,000-a-year dividend portfolio. Martha didn’t start out thinking she’d be a finance expert—like many of us, she learned the hard way, paying off over $100,000 in debt before she discovered the power of investing, especially dividends. In this episode, we dive into how Martha transformed her relationship with money, why financial health is essential for overall wellbeing, the challenges—and opportunities—for women investors, and practical strategies for building wealth through dividends.

    EP115: 6 False Beliefs Holding You Back From Financial Freedom

    Did you know there are six false beliefs that might be holding you back from financial freedom? In this episode of the Simply Investing Dividend Podcast, I sit down with Doug Kinsey, Chief Investment Officer at Artifex Financial Group. With over 25 years of experience in financial services, Doug brings a wealth of knowledge and a fresh perspective on how to grow and protect your wealth. Doug’s passion for investing started early — reading books on finance as a child and developing a lifelong curiosity about businesses, new ideas, and hidden value. Today, he challenges conventional thinking by questioning the limits of Modern Portfolio Theory, the dangers of over-relying on statistics, and the blind faith in indexing. Instead, Doug makes the case for a smarter, more common-sense approach to active management — one that puts careful research, patience, and sound judgment back at the center of investing success. If you’re ready to uncover the false beliefs that may be sabotaging your portfolio and learn how to invest with confidence, this episode is for you.
