    Episode 27 - Speak with Deborah Daniel

    What if "I haven't saved enough for retirement" isn't actually a savings problem… but an inflow problem — and the old script of get-the-degree, get-the-job, get-the-gold-watch was quietly setting an entire generation of women up to fail? In this episode of Savage Angel, Angela sits down with Deborah Daniel — CPA, MBA in finance, three-decade veteran of the money and business world, contributing author of the bestselling anthology Women of Wealth: A Proverbs Legacy of Grace and Grit, and soon-to-be solo author of Women's Wealth Secrets. Deborah opens up about why she calls money "currency" (a word most people never stop to feel the weight of) and why most women — even high-earning ones — are silently losing more to taxes every year than they pay on their mortgage. She shares the inflow-first philosophy from her chapter, She Gathers the Harvest, and why entrepreneurship gave her the freedom to say "okay, my daughter needs $5,000 in braces — let me go generate that" instead of begging a boss who'd never say yes. Then we go full Savage: Deborah lays out the four types of income every woman should know (taxable, tax-deferred, tax-now, and never taxed) and how the wrong "bucket" can quietly cost your heirs a fortune. She introduces her three-leg framework — mindset + skill set + tool set — and explains why all the woo-woo abundance in the world can't help you if you don't know how compound interest works ("Albert Einstein called it the most powerful force on earth — and the man wrote the theory of relativity"). Plus: how the digital economy is quietly letting women in their 50s and 60s build $10K–$70K/month income streams from scratch, why "set it and forget it" savers struggle when it's finally time to spend the money, and why your kids are watching how you handle money even when they're not listening. What You'll Learn Why money is a flow, not a number — and what "currency" really meansThe inflow advantage of entrepreneurship: how to generate $5,000 on demandWhy high-income earners pay more in taxes than mortgage — and almost nobody talks about itThe four kinds of income (taxable / tax-deferred / tax-now / never taxed) and why this changes everythingThe three-leg framework: mindset, skill set, tool set — and what happens when you only have oneThe "three phases of wealth" mindset shift: builder → preserver → spender (and why phase three is the hardest)How women in their 50s and 60s are building $10K–$70K/month digital income streamsWhy the 40-year-job-and-gold-watch model is broken for most people todayThe hidden danger of "I'll save when I make more" — and why time is the real multiplierHow to set up your heirs the right way (and the expensive way most people accidentally leave money behind)Why couples need to both stay informed on money — especially because women statistically live longerThe simple "logins, passwords, who to call" list every household needsAlbert Einstein's compound interest quote — and why it matters as much as relativity 📖 Grab the bestselling anthology Women of Wealth: A Proverbs Legacy of Grace and Grit (featuring Deborah's chapter, She Gathers the Harvest) on Amazon. 📚 Keep an eye out for Deborah's upcoming solo release, Women's Wealth Secrets — coming this summer.

    Episode 26 - Speak with Dr. Nicholas Nikolov

    What if the future of looking ten years younger doesn't involve a scalpel, downtime, or a single moment of pain — but an "unfocused ultrasound" wand that was originally invented to heal stubborn wounds? In this episode of Savage Angel, Angela sits down with Dr. Nicholas Nikolov — board-certified Beverly Hills plastic surgeon, same building, same floor, for 30 years. He's seen every trend, gimmick, and "Nick Tuck"–style branding scheme come and go (yes, his first name is Nick — no, he won't do it). And he has zero interest in turning you into someone else. Dr. Nikolov opens up about the unforgettable twins who came into his office for a TV show — one wanted to look like Brad Pitt, the other like Ben Affleck. The problem? They didn't resemble either celebrity in any way. He politely stepped out of the room and shares why that moment crystallized his entire philosophy: embrace who you are first, then optimize it. Don't try to become someone else. Then we go full Savage: Dr. Nikolov breaks down CellSound — the unfocused ultrasound technology he was so skeptical about, he literally told his colleague "get out of here, this is too good to be true." Until he saw the results. Now he's all in: improved blood flow, lymphatic drainage, collagen production, and fat reduction (without killing cells) — all with no pain, no inflammation, no downtime. Get treated and walk straight to a gala the same night, makeup on or off. He also reveals the depth of penetration that's quietly a game-changer for stubborn intra-abdominal fat (the kind men especially can't shake), how he uses it on C-section scar tissue, and why this is the rare device with "no ceiling" on treatments — because it's not a controlled burn, it's healing. If you're in your 40s, 50s, or beyond and you've been quietly Googling "what actually works that won't wreck me," this episode is the conversation you've been waiting for. What You'll Learn Why "I want to look like Brad Pitt" is the wrong goal — and what to ask for insteadThe identity-first philosophy that separates great surgeons from assembly-line clinicsWhat CellSound actually does: blood flow, lymphatic drainage, collagen, and fat releaseWhy there's no pain, no downtime, and no inflammation (unlike most "skin tightening" devices)The wound-healing origin story that made Dr. Nikolov a believerHow it penetrates 10 cm deep — and why that matters for stubborn belly fat (especially in men)Can it help with C-section scars, fold-over, and tethered scar tissue? Yes — here's howThe recommended 6-treatment protocol (twice a week for 3 weeks) — and what you'll see after just oneWhy "giving up on how you look" can be a quiet sign of depression — and why caring is healthyThe truth about trendy procedures (deep plane facelift, anyone?) — and the 6 different facelifts Dr. Nikolov does based on what you actually needThe single most important piece of plastic surgery advice he gives every patient: more isn't always better — trust your instinct 🔗 Connect with Dr. Nicholas Nikolov DrNikolov.com (D-R-N-I-K-O-L-O-V.com) Beverly Hills, CA

    Episode 25 - Speak with Tim Ketchum

    What if the most overlooked appliance in your home could become a game-changer for both convenience and the environment? Angela Giles sits down with Tim Ketchum, co-founder of Composer, a startup on a mission to reinvent the garbage disposal. While most people think of garbage disposals as outdated kitchen technology, Tim and his team saw an opportunity to completely rethink how food waste is handled in our homes. From built-in enzymes that help prevent clogs and odors to a powerful design that encourages homeowners to divert food waste away from landfills, Composer is bringing innovation to a household appliance that hasn't changed much in decades. 🔥 You'll discover: • Why food waste in landfills is a bigger problem than most people realize • How modern garbage disposals can help reduce environmental impact • The surprising truth about what you can actually put down a garbage disposal • How Composer's built-in enzyme system helps keep pipes cleaner and fresher • Why cities and wastewater treatment plants may benefit from this approach to food waste management • What it's like launching a startup in an industry that hasn't seen major innovation in over 100 years If you're interested in sustainability, entrepreneurship, home innovation, or creating practical solutions to everyday problems, this episode offers a fascinating look at turning a simple idea into a potentially industry-changing business. ✨ Connect with Tim Ketchum: 🌐 Website: https://www.composer.me

    Episode 24 - Speak with Peter Swimm

    What if your fear of AI replacing your job isn't really about AI at all… but a quiet signal that you don't trust your own company culture to value what makes you human? In this episode of Savage Angel, Angela sits down with Peter Swimm — 35-year tech veteran, founder of the consultancy Toyville, and the rare conversational AI expert whose entire pitch is essentially "use less of this stuff, not more." His tagline says it all: people make it better. Peter doesn't pull punches on the AI hype machine. He explains why "every hammer sees a nail as a nail" — and why most companies are reaching for AI to solve problems that aren't actually technology problems. He breaks down the math of a 200-person call center serving a retail grocery chain so massive its employee health-insurance program is bigger than Medicare in 13 American states… and the simple insight that automating the boring 2 minutes of a 5-minute call (ID verification) would free up time to reinvest in the human conversation — not eliminate it. Then we go full Savage: Peter shares why his dermatologist replacing the front desk with ChatGPT is a disaster, why "Sandy in accounting" who silently catches your typos is the most underrated employee in your company (and the first one companies stupidly automate away), and why Microsoft Copilot literally tells you it's "for entertainment purposes only" — making it a $12-million-a-quarter Magic 8 Ball. If you've ever felt the pressure to "AI-ify" your business and quietly wondered if everyone has lost their minds, this episode is your permission slip. What You'll Learn Why fear of AI replacement is really a signal about your company culture — not the techThe "every hammer sees a nail" trap most leaders fall into when buying AI toolsHow to use AI to expand your human team's capacity instead of replacing themThe call center math: automate the 2 boring minutes, reinvest in the human 3Why "Sandy in accounting" is your hidden process — and what breaks when she's automatedWhy AI is an "averaging machine biased toward the median" — and what that costs premium brandsThe ATM analogy: why banks still have humans in branches 30 years laterHow to spot when a vendor is trying to capture 100% of your revenue (Vegas trap)Why launching AI pilots without mapping the actual human process is how brands lose lawsuits and customersThe case for hiring real artists, real photographers, and real writers — and using AI as a whiteboard, not the destinationWhy Peter loves working with "Luddites, craftsmen, and practitioners" — and the kind of clients he turns awayThe "FAFO moment" society is in right now with AI-driven layoffs and decisions 🔗 Connect with Peter Swimm / Toyville Toyville.com | PeopleMakeItBetter.com

    Episode 23 - Speak with Holly Perry

    What if the chapter you're most afraid your story is "too benign" to tell… is the exact one someone out there is waiting to read? In this episode of Savage Angel, Angela sits down with Holly Perry — Co-Founder and COO of Great Vista Financial & Great Vista Education and Technology, former medical social worker turned insurance executive, healthcare consumer advocate, and contributing author of the bestselling anthology Women of Wealth: A Proverbs Legacy of Grace and Grit. Holly opens up about the moment she walked into a hospital room to deliver crushing news to a family about their 40-year-old daughter — and how that day cracked her wide open and pointed her straight into the insurance industry. She shares the chills-worthy detail of how her insurance license arrived in the mail the exact day her father (a former insurance agent who told her, "I want nothing more than for you to make this work") passed away in June 2012. Then we go full Savage: Holly and Angela trade stories about divine intervention, intuition, and those "downloads" you can't explain — including Angela's wild airplane-seat-kicking guardian angel moments. Holly shares the Proverbs principle that changed her life ("a chapter a day for two years and you'll be smarter than most of your bosses… five years and you'll be a multi-millionaire") and why she finally said yes to writing her chapter, Destined by Design, after years of thinking her story wasn't "wow" enough. What You'll Learn Why "I don't have a traumatic enough story" is the lie keeping most women from writingThe medical social work moment that pushed Holly out of healthcare and into insuranceHow "divine timing" actually shows up in your life (and how to recognize the nudge)The Proverbs reading practice that changes your decision-making — and reportedly your bank accountWhy writing your story heals you first, then ripples out to thousandsHow a single chapter in an anthology landed authors paid speaking gigs, clients, and entire new careersWhy being part of something bigger than yourself is the move — especially if you have a daughter watchingAngela's raw share about growing up in a religious cult, writing about it, and what healing through publishing really feels like 📖 Grab the bestselling anthology Women of Wealth: A Proverbs Legacy of Grace and Grit (featuring Holly Perry's chapter, Destined by Design) on Amazon. 🔗 Connect with Holly Perry / Great Vista Financial Website | LinkedIn (Holly Perry) | Facebook (Holly Perry) | Instagram (@hollyperry2021)

    Episode 22 - Speak with Joshua Hoecherl

    What if your leadership "problem" isn't actually a leadership problem… but a design problem and the reason your team can't function without you has nothing to do with their skill set and everything to do with the hallway you built? In this episode of Savage Angel, Angela sits down with Joshua Hoecherl President of Pinpoint Management Services, creator of Leaders Evolution, author of the Ripple Effect book series, and the man behind Empowerment Design, the philosophy quietly reshaping how small business owners actually scale. Josh doesn't pull punches. He explains why almost every leadership training on the planet is broken before slide one ever goes up ("leadership is a context problem, not a content problem"), why the toy in the hallway is the issue not the kid tripping over it, and shares the real story of a client whose entire team would freeze the moment he stepped out for a BNI meeting… and the four-hour experiment that flipped the whole thing. Then we go full Savage: Josh introduces EMI, his AI leadership assistant trained on the entire Leaders Evolution system the kind of 3 a.m. "I need to figure out payroll" partner that used to be reserved for executives with seven-figure consulting retainers. He unpacks why AI doesn't replace leadership, it exposes the absence of it… and why "sit in the mud" with your people is the most underrated leadership move of the decade. What You'll Learn Why traditional leadership training fails 60 days in and what to do insteadThe "move the toy" metaphor that rewires how you think about your team's performanceHow to spot the hidden ways your business has quietly become dependent on youThe difference between content and context and why this changes everythingWhy your employees can't be accountable until you give them real autonomyHow "decisions without accountability" are training a whole generation to swipe instead of leadWhy "the mess is the point" and how letting go without losing your identity actually worksHow EMI (Empowerment Intelligence) gives small business owners executive-level AI supportWhy "AI exposes the absence of leadership" and what that means for your role going forwardThe 4-book Ripple Effect series (with book 5, When Waves Collide, on the way)Josh's parting wisdom: slow down, relationships are the real ledger, and stop apologizing for being unfinished 🔗 Connect with Joshua Hoecherl / Pinpoint Management Services Website | LinkedIn | Facebook | Instagram | TikTok

    Episode 21 - Speak with Yi Song

    What if the secret to staying young isn't another supplement, surgery, or symptom-chasing protocol… but going back to a 17-generation-deep tradition of healing — combined with cutting-edge stem cell science? In this episode of Savage Angel, Angela sits down with Dr. Yi Song — Beijing-born, Brown-trained pathologist turned holistic healer, founder of the Zenerchi Retreat in Medellín, Colombia, and bestselling author of Regeneration Effect: Sacred Wisdom for Staying Young. Dr. Song opens up about why she walked away from Western medicine after Brown, how her mother's stem cell recovery at 81 changed everything, and what's actually happening behind the scenes in the stem cell world — including the celebrity-endorsed clinic that allegedly gave Mark Hyman sepsis, and how to tell a legitimate provider from a black-market grifter. Then we go full Savage: Yi shares the chapter she wrote for the bestselling anthology Women of Wealth (her take on Proverbs 31 — even as a non-Christian), how a single 3-minute story on stage with coach Lauren Norris completely reinvented the way she shows up in business, and why pursuing your passion — not chasing the paycheck — is the actual blueprint for a meaningful life. What You'll Learn Why "true vitality lives beyond lab reports" — and what to actually pay attention to insteadHow to spot a high-quality stem cell clinic vs. a black-market one (and the red flags hiding in plain sight on their own videos)Why Mexico isn't your only option — and what makes Colombia's Zenerchi Retreat differentThe Proverbs 31 reframe: it's not about serving your husband — it's about being fiercely independent and preparedHow writing your story heals you first — and then attracts speaking gigs, clients, and opportunities on autopilotThe "recognize your constitution" principle that applies to your body AND your businessWhy combining advice from multiple experts (in the right proportions) beats following one guruThe one piece of wisdom Dr. Song would tell her 6-year-old self — and every woman afraid to start🎁 Free Gift from Dr. Song — Download the ebook Tend Your Body Like a Garden at gift.regenerationeffect.com 📖 Grab the bestselling anthology Women of Wealth (featuring Dr. Yi Song's chapter) on Amazon. 🔗 Connect with Dr. Yi Song / Zenerchi Health Website | LinkedIn | Facebook | Instagram

    Episode 20 - Speak with Mike Hewett

    What if the fastest way to upgrade your life isn’t a raise… but a remodel + a real estate deal you didn’t even know was possible? In this episode of Savage Angel, Angela sits down with Mike Hewett—Utah-based general contractor, remodeling beast, and the man sprinting toward 100K YouTube subscribers as “The Remodel King.” Mike breaks down what actually makes a remodel worth it (and what order to tackle projects in), why lighting is the most underrated “instant transformation,” and the one kitchen upgrade Angela is officially obsessed with: the drawer microwave that frees up counter space and lets you ditch the over-the-range box. Then we go full Savage: Mike shares real numbers from a recent fix & flip—how they bought using zero of their own money, sold fast, and how people are using 0% interest credit cards to fund deals (yep… you read that right). What You’ll Learn Why kitchens + main-floor “domino remodels” are usually the smartest first moveThe underrated upgrade that makes homes look instantly newer (hello, can lights)Why drawer microwaves are the “design unlock” for statement hoods + premium kitchensHow Mike runs remodel projects with minimal surprise costs—and why that builds trustA real fix & flip breakdown: timelines, offers, and what made it move in 13 daysHow “0% funding” works (soft pull + 12–24 month promos) and how people use it to fund real estate dealsWhy paying “expensive” money (like hard money) can still be a no-brainer if the deal nets big 🔗 Connect with Mike Hewett / The Remodel King YouTube (The Remodel King) Facebook
