  1. How to make money from social media - with Jarrah Brailey (EP#54)

    How to make money from social media - with Jarrah Brailey (EP#54)

    From $10 a day to agency CEO: Jarrah Brailey on content, confidence & charging more In this episode of Money Secrets, Fi sits down with social media obsessed agency founder Jarrah Brailey from Jampacked Agency for a behind-the-scenes look at how content, strategy and clever engagement build online communities that make strong businesses.  From secretly setting up a Facebook account at 10 years old and charging $10 a day for her social media services, to leading a fully-remote content and ads agency working with product-based brands around Australia. Jarrah shares what really moves the needle on platforms like Instagram and TikTok – and why your creative is your most important currency.🎧 Tune in for a refreshingly real conversation about organic vs paid, content that actually converts, learning to love your numbers, and the uncomfortable-but-essential process of putting your prices up so you can do your best work. What you'll learn in this episode: Why “one size fits all” content is costing you time and money. How copying the same post across Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn and Pinterest signals you “don’t get” the platform. Platform culture 101: TikTok vs Instagram. The key differences in pace, polish and “native” feel between TikTok and Instagram, and why branding-heavy carousels don’t fly everywhere. Organic social as brand builder, not an instant ATM. How to think about organic content as top-of-funnel brand building, and which metrics actually matter (hint: it’s not just sales). Paid ads as a multiplier, not a magic tap. Why ads can’t fix a leaky offer, clunky website or unclear messaging, and what foundations to have in place before you start spending. Creative is currency in paid ads. Why the quality, concept and “scroll-stopping” power of your creative now matters more than ever. Making social media actually sell. Where organic, paid and email each sit in helping people move from curious to converted. Becoming the kind of business owner who can read their numbers. Jarrah’s journey from crying in a meeting with her accountant to confidently logging into Xero, reading her Profit & Loss and making decisions without waiting for permission. Pricing as the unlock for better work and better clients. What happened when Jam Packed’s retainers increased, and why higher prices often mean better results, not just more revenue. Dropping the ego and embracing beginner energy. How allowing yourself to be “the three-year-old on a skateboard” with money and metrics can transform your business faster than pretending you already know it all.  Connect with Jarrah Brailey: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jampacked.agency/ Web: https://jampackedagency.com.au/about-us/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jarrah-brailey/________________________________________________________________________ We’ve come so far as a society in many ways, but money is one of the areas where progress hasn’t been enough.

  2. Are You Making Enough Money In Your Business? (EP#53)

    12/09/2025

    Are You Making Enough Money In Your Business? (EP#53)

    Why you’re not making enough money — and how to fix it In this episode of Money Secrets, Fi breaks down something that if you’re not making enough money, it usually traces back to one of three things: - your pricing, - your business model, - or your money mindset. And the good news? Every one of these three areas is completely fixable. Drawing on 25 years of experience helping small business owners increase their income, improve profitability, and create businesses that support their life and their impact goals, Fi unpacks exactly why these issues show up and the practical steps you can take today to change it. 🎧 Tune in to learn why so many small business owners undercharge, how your business model shapes your earning capacity, and why your thoughts and beliefs about money directly influence your financial results.    What you'll learn in this episode:  Why most small business owners undercharge: The myth of needing to be “affordable” is holding you back more than you think. How your pricing affects everything: A small price change can have a big impact on your profitability. Why you should raise your prices yearly: Not just for inflation, but because your skills, processes, and client results improve every year. How unclear billable vs. non-billable time leads to underpricing: If you don’t know what your work really costs, you can’t price it properly. What your business model actually is: The structure of your products, customers, value, and revenue streams, and why it's the backbone of your strategy. Why “different” matters more than “better”: Positioning yourself uniquely is more powerful than trying to be the best. How client type influences your pricing: The right clients expect to pay more, and your price is a signal that attracts (or repels) them. Why money mindset affects your income: Your beliefs about money influence almost every decision in your business. How to spot your hidden money beliefs: Your behaviours (discounting, hesitating, undercharging) reveal what you really believe. Why you can change your money psychology: Once you understand your patterns, you can shift them and change your financial results.  Resources mentioned in this episode: FREE: 13 Lessons from 13 Years – Learn the Business Rules to Break FREE: How to Price Your Product or Service Business Model Design Program Join the Good Money Club waitlist ________________________________________________________________________ We’ve come so far as a society in many ways, but money is one of the areas where progress hasn’t been enough.

  3. If You Don’t Know Your Money, You Don’t Know Your Business – with Kate Toon (EP#52)

    12/02/2025

    If You Don’t Know Your Money, You Don’t Know Your Business – with Kate Toon (EP#52)

    Stop guessing, start knowing: Kate Toon on money, mistakes & momentum In this episode of Money Secrets, Fi sits down with author, business mentor and digital marketing misfit Kate Toon for a funny, frank, and very real conversation about money, risk, and what success actually looks like over the long haul. From tax debt and fear of being “eaten by cats” in retirement, to hitting seven figures and choosing to scale back for sanity and profit, Kate shares the decisions, mistakes, and mindset shifts that have shaped her business over 16+ years. 🎧 Tune in for a refreshingly honest look at numbers, safety nets, naivety, reinvention and why you should always know (roughly) what’s in your bank account.   What you'll learn in this episode: Know your numbers, know your business: Why Kate believes you should have a rough idea of every bank balance and key monthly expense at all times. From tax debt to clarity: How a painful ATO bill and “end-of-year police” accountant experience pushed her toward Profit First, bookkeepers and daily money dates. Revenue vs profit (and why seven figures isn’t the goal): What happened when Kate crossed $1M in revenue, and why she deliberately chose to earn less but keep more. Minimal Viable Income: How working out “the least I can live on and still feel okay” can make pivots, experiments and downshifting feel safer. Good debt vs bad debt (aka avocado debt): How Kate thinks about mortgages, investment and risk without sliding back into credit-card chaos. Building assets, not just hours: The long game behind her SEO courses, memberships, books and shop, and why most people give up on digital products way too early. Marketing stamina: Why following up more than twice, repeating your offers, and playing the long game matters when it can take years for someone to finally buy. Financial independence after separation: What it took to buy out a partner, hold onto the house, and decide never to outsource money decisions again. Success by ideal day, not by hype: How Kate now defines “enough” as low stress, reasonable profit, variety, and time to float in her beloved backyard pool.   Connect with Kate Toon: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/katetoon/?originalSubdomain=au Web: https://www.katetoon.com/ ________________________________________________________________________ We’ve come so far as a society in many ways, but money is one of the areas where progress hasn’t been enough.

  4. Manifesting Your Money (EP#51)

    Manifesting Your Money (EP#51)

    Manifesting for small business: how clarity + action create real results In this episode of Money Secrets, Fi lifts the veil on a topic that people often misunderstand: manifesting. But instead of the fluffy, magical thinking you might see on Instagram, Fi brings 25 years of real small-business experience and the neuroscience-backed approach that explains why manifesting works, and how to use it strategically.Fi breaks down the difference between wishful thinking and the powerful combination of clarity, intentional thought, and consistent action. Whether you’re manifesting your first $100K year, more confidence, or better business opportunities, this episode shows how to turn your thoughts into movement, and movement into results.🎧 Tune in to explore the science of focus, the power of speaking goals out loud, and why small business owners must pair mindset with action to create the outcomes they want.  What you'll learn in this episode:  Why manifesting does work: Fi explains how manifesting is really a clarity practice + behavioural shift, not a lightning bolt from the universe. The neuroscience behind manifesting: Dr Tara Swart’s work shows that when you repeat a goal often, in your mind, writing, or voice, your brain starts noticing opportunities that were always there (Hello, white Toyota Corolla effect). Why clarity is the true foundation: You cannot manifest what you cannot name. Fi shares why speaking your goals out loud to a trusted person can fast-track clarity. How repeating your goals changes your behaviour: When you keep telling yourself, “I want to make $100K this year,” you show up differently. You market more, network more, back yourself more, and take smarter action. Why community and coaching make manifesting more powerful: Speaking your goals out loud helps create clarity, accountability, and momentum, which is why Good Money Club is built around thinking, planning, and acting together. The importance of mapping out the how: Once you know the goal, the next step is breaking down the actions that get you there, something Fi teaches and supports inside Good Money Club.

    As The Ripple Festival Doors Open (EP#50)

    Turning Big Ideas into Reality In this episode of Money Secrets, Fi pulls back the curtain on the biggest project she’s ever brought to life: Ripple Festival. What began as a wild idea over coffee with her business bestie, Mia Fileman, became a full-scale celebration of small business, creativity, and community. Fi shares what it really took to transform an optimistic dream into a two-day festival, from over-programming and sleepless nights to building in public and learning from every misstep. She reflects on the joy, stress, and sheer courage it takes to create something completely new for small business owners who crave more than another predictable conference. If you’re listening in real time, Ripple Festival is happening today and tomorrow, and there’s still time to join us. Tickets are available for both days at ripplefestival.au, and you can grab yours right up until the gates open. 🎧 Tune in to hear what it takes to turn an idea into impact — and how Fi and Mia built a festival that celebrates the heart, diversity, and brilliance of small business.   What you'll learn in this episode:  The story behind Ripple Festival, and how it evolved from a spark of optimism into a full-scale event. What “building in public” really means and how it can build trust, courage, and community. The lessons Fi learned from getting things wrong, and why iteration matters more than perfection. How Ripple’s program was designed to serve established small business owners with purpose and profit in mind. The importance of embedding impact and inclusivity into every stage of business growth. Why creativity and community are the future of small business, not hustle and hype. The emotional reality of leading a large-scale project: pressure, risk, and deep pride. What Fi hopes every attendee takes away from Ripple: clarity, connection, and confidence to do business differently.  ________________________________________________________________________ We’ve come so far as a society in many ways, but money is one of the areas where progress hasn’t been enough.

    Make more $30,000 Decisions and less $30 Decisions (EP#49)

    The $30,000 mindset shift every small business owner needs In this episode of Money Secrets, Fi digs into one of the biggest mindset and strategy gaps in small business: paying yourself properly. If you’ve ever caught yourself working hard but not seeing it reflected in your bank account, this one’s for you.Fi breaks down why obsessing over $30 subscriptions won’t move the needle, and how focusing on $30,000 decisions (the kind that grow revenue and build assets) changes everything. She shares practical advice from the Profit First framework, explains which expenses actually matter, and shows how to make smarter, higher-impact moves in your business.🎧 Tune in to learn how to shift from survival mode to sustainable profit, and finally start paying yourself what you deserve.   What you'll learn in this episode:  Why paying yourself first isn’t selfish, it’s smart business strategy. How Profit First helps you see money clearly by splitting income into multiple accounts for people, profit, expenses, and tax. The 25% rule: why no more than a quarter of your income should go to operating expenses (excluding wages or product). Why reducing costs only takes you so far, and increasing revenue takes you much further. $30 vs $30,000 decisions: how to stop overthinking small costs and start engineering big, strategic wins. What smarter spending looks like: investing in assets that compound, like branding, training, and marketing. The “revenue-first” mindset shift that turns stress into momentum and growth. How to attract premium clients who value your work and pay accordingly. Why long-term thinking (not penny-pinching) is the key to sustainable profit.  ________________________________________________________________________ We’ve come so far as a society in many ways, but money is one of the areas where progress hasn’t been enough.

    Inside Good Money Club: How to Manage Your Money (EP#48)

    Profit First, Cashflow Reality, and Trusting Yourself with Money Psst! Ever wondered what it’s really like inside Good Money Club? In this sneak peek episode of Money Secrets, Fi gets real about the thing that breaks (and builds) small businesses: cashflow. If you’ve ever obsessed over cutting costs while quietly avoiding the bigger question: how do I bring in more? this insight to one of our recent club sessions, “How to Manage Your Money” is the perspective shift you need. Fi explains why revenue can be vanity, profit is sanity, and cash (money in the bank) is reality. She shares a practical walk-through of Profit First — the simple system that helps you pay yourself first, reduce stress, and make confident decisions about where every dollar goes. 🎧 Tune in to hear how a few weekly habits, a handful of bank accounts, and a mindset reset can turn “mo’ money, mo’ problems” into clarity, control, and sustainable growth. What you’ll learn in this episode:  Cash ≠ revenue: Why “money in the bank and how it moves” is the metric that matters most. The growth trap: How fast growth (new team, inventory, expansion) creates cashflow crunches, and how to plan for the lag between expenses and income. Self-trust with money: The subtle ways we sabotage revenue (discounting, slow follow-ups) and how to build evidence that you are good with money. Profit First 101: Flip the formula to Income - Profit = Expenses. Use multiple bank accounts (Income, People/Owner’s Pay, Expenses, Tax, Profit). Pay yourself first, then profit, then expenses; the ATO last (allocated weekly). Make temptation harder: Keep profit/tax out of sight (even in a separate bank) if you tend to spend what you see. Enforce a rhythm: Why weekly transfers make the system stick (habits > heroic bursts). Credit cards = muddy water: How available credit blurs your true expense limits and fuels overspend. Toothpaste rule: Use only what’s needed — even when the tube’s full, so you invest intentionally, not impulsively. Slice the pie with percentages: Clear Monday-morning allocations so you always know what you can actually spend. Think bigger than $30 decisions: Spend less time agonising over micro-costs and more time engineering $30k decisions that grow revenue.    ________________________________________________________________________ We’ve come so far as a society in many ways, but money is one of the areas where progress hasn’t been enough.

    How to find the time to work ON your business (EP#47)

    The most misunderstood resource in small business: Time In this episode of Money Secrets, Fi dives into one of the biggest struggles small business owners face:  time. If you’ve ever said, “I just don’t have time to work on my business,” this one’s for you. Drawing from 25 years of experience working with small business owners, Fi shares why time is not just a resource but the most valuable (and most misunderstood) asset you have. She explains how shifting focus from doing more to doing less, intentionally can create space for clarity, growth, and better financial outcomes. From undercharging and over-servicing to prioritising short-term client work over long-term brand building, Fi unpacks the patterns that keep business owners stuck in survival mode and offers a roadmap to reclaiming your time. 🎧 Tune in to learn how investing time in strategy, mentoring, and self-reflection can free you from the overwhelm, and why doing less might just be the smartest move for your business. What you'll learn in this episode:  Why time is the most valuable (and misunderstood) resource in small business. How investing time in strategy, mentoring, and reflection actually reduces your workload. The financial impact of prioritising client work over your own business growth. How to identify when you’re undercharging or over-servicing, and how to stop. The importance of building boundaries, pricing for value, and working with the right clients. Why talking about your business (in a mastermind, mentoring, or group setting) delivers exponential return on effort. How long-term thinking (not constant hustle) leads to more profit, more freedom, and more impact.  ________________________________________________________________________ We’ve come so far as a society in many ways, but money is one of the areas where progress hasn’t been enough.
