Most entrepreneurs think they have a revenue problem—when in reality, they have a cash flow problem.

In this powerful episode, I sit down with Phil McGilvray, former financial advisor, stockbroker, and founder of Grandma’s Jars, to unpack why most businesses struggle—not because of what they earn, but because of how they manage what they keep.

If cash flow has ever felt confusing, stressful, or overwhelming, this episode will redefine how you think about money, profit, and long-term freedom.

Phil shares how he walked away from a million-dollar salary to help entrepreneurs like you master their money using simple, timeless principles. This is your invitation to finally make money work for you—not the other way around.
