Think Unbroken with Michael Anthony

Michael and I met at the 10 X sales execution workshop in Miami a few weeks ago at Grant Cardone’s office. He’s genuinely a good and real expert on finances.

Michael enjoys knocking down the walls of financial challenges and helping people understand what it means to step into entrepreneurship and business owners in life. Michael shares his financial wisdom with us; you’ll love what he has to say, so read on!

Meet Michael Anthony

Growing up in Indianapolis, Michael’s mother was a drug addict and alcoholic. “She actually cut off my right index finger when I was only four years old. So that kind of gives you a baseline.”

His birth father was spending the majority of his childhood homeless or impoverished. His family was impoverished, and by the time he was 13, Michael was getting high and drunk. Finally, at 15, he was expelled from school.

“I was running with drugs and selling guns.” The solution to poverty was money. “This is what happens when you grow up in an environment that is not conducive to livelihood.” By his late teens, he wanted to figure out a way to make money legally, as many of his best friends had been murdered. “I just knew like if I kept down this path, it was not going to end well. So I said, by the time I’m 21, I want to make a hundred thousand dollars a year – legally.”

He landed a job with a Fortune 10 company with no high school education. They handed him his high school diploma. His first paycheck was for $10,000. Fast forward several years, he’s built his second legal business. Several years later, he found himself at 350 pounds and smoking two packs of cigarettes a day and drinking. “I put a gun in my mouth because I didn’t understand the impact of the abuse that I went through.”

Even though there’s been so much chaos in his life, he’s also experienced good things, which leads to his why. “What I do now is about impacting people’s lives, helping them understand that they can be the hero of their own story.”

How Trauma Plays Into Decision-Making

Trauma can motivate you because you’re trying to move through the bad experiences into a new life. Many want to make a ton of money to climb out of a hole, and they find themselves broke.

Michael says, “The thing about trauma that you have to understand is it’s not only just that the way that we understand money and finances. The money mindset embedded and ingrained in us from youth and society tells us that money is something we should be ashamed of.”

Adding the layers of trauma where we are in this fight or flight response and cortisol state in the sympathetic nervous system to the societal beliefs creates a survival and poverty mentality. “Tell me how someone can be successful with money when you’re battling both of those things?”

Changing His Money Mindset

Michael now has a healthier view of money. He understands that money is a resource and tool. Money can be used to serve, help and build your platform. You can also invest in yourself and use money as a conduit for self-growth.

Although you can use the money to serve yourself and others, you also want to be safe and protect yourself by having a cushion of savings in the bank. Outside of your expenses, use your “extra” money that is prime for investing. “You take your resources and invest in yourself and you’ll never lose.” Michael invests more money in himself than those who have Ivy League degrees. He understands the value of reciprocity with spending money and bets on himself first.

Steps to Overcoming Trauma

From his experience, Michael says the first step to overcoming trauma is acknowledgment. Since we can’t hide from the truth, you have to deal with your trauma, or you will most likely go down a negative path of harmful, dangerous, and unhealthy habits.

With acknowledgment comes freedom. “For the first time I was able to release myself from the constructs and handcuffs of the past. Even though I was freely moving about the world, it’s like my leg was still chained to the blockaid,” which for Michael is the reason why he didn’t make progress because he was too afraid to be vulnerable with himself.

“You have to be able to look in the mirror and recognize that bad things happened and that it’s not your fault.”

However, you need to understand from this moment forward; you have to do the work to take yourself out of the cycle of trauma and emotional chains that prevents you from moving forward on the path of life and achieving who you genuinely are and are meant to be in life. “Once you’ve acknowledged your past, you’ll need to learn, grow, change, and heal. Support yourself by building community, finding your tribe, and educating yourself.”

He remembers the moment of truth, standing in front of the bathroom mirror. He asked himself, “What are you willing to do? Your life is a fucking disaster. What are you going to do about this?” Twelve years later, Michael is here talking to us and advising on finances. “I’ve built multimillion dollar businesses. I can always learn something else. And the moment you think, you know, everything it’s game over.”

Attract People Who Love Change

Whatever you’re doing, there’s going to be people who want to pull you down. There are going to be people who want you to take them on your journey. You can’t do that. It’s the crab in the bucket mentality.

It would be best if you pruned the people who pull you down in life. People are going to try to pull you down, get in your way. You can’t rescue anybody, so don’t waste your time trying. If someone wants a different lifestyle, they need to invest the time and money into themselves and want to change for their life to turn around effectively.

You Can Only Make Your Tribe Happy

Michael realizes that you can’t make everyone happy all the time. “I’m not here for the people that don’t want my message. But, I will still serve and show up. You have to serve people who are here. Remember every day that you’re not living up to your power and what you have to offer to the world because you’re scared of what a motherfucker on Instagram has to say or the friend wanting to pull you down.

Put Action Behind Your Words

“Your financial success starts with action. What you think becomes what you speak, what you speak becomes your action. Your action becomes your reality. This process starts in your head. You tell yourself you are capable.”

I am strong. I am capable. I am good enough. I am the kind of person who shows up for myself. I’m the kind of person that serves the world. I’m the kind of person that leads with love. The action starts with the way you’re thinking. Change only happens when you make change happen.

Finding Your Clarity, Mission & Purpose

You have to understand why you are doing something, start with your why, and let your community know why you may not be available. Michael’s why? “I want to end generational trauma in my lifetime and empower people to be the hero of their own story, whether that’s in the trauma side of coaching or in the business side of coaching.” The purpose is essential because your purpose should evolve as you grow.

“You have to start putting yourself in those positions, in which you’re learning and changing the narrative of understanding that you have about who it is that you are and what you’re capable of.” However, make sure you hold yourself accountable for yourself first before bringing your purpose and why into the world.

Commitment to Your Purpose

Commitment is also key to your success.

“You have got to decide, are you in or are you out?”

Nobody’s going to do the work to make your dreams come true. You have to be committed because on days that aren’t going so well; you need to remind yourself and recommit to your why.

Work and Life Balance 

Even though you have a why make sure you are balancing your work and life so as not to burnout.

“You have to be honest with yourself.”

Ensure that you take a break when you need to and get out of emotionally intensive environments to avoid overload.

Rewire for Wealth with Barbara Huson

I’ve recently had Barbara Huson on my podcast to chat about her new book, Rewire for Wealth.

You may know her under her previous name of Barbara Stanny from before her marriage.

Her book, Overcoming Underearning, absolutely changed my life when I was a financial writer, and I’m so grateful for her book!

Meet Barbara Huson

Barbara Huson is the leading authority on women, wealth, and power. As a bestselling author, financial therapist, teacher, and wealth coach, Barbara has helped millions take charge of their finances and lives.

Barbara’s background in business, her years as a journalist, her Master’s Degree in Counseling Psychology, extensive research, and personal experience with money give her a unique perspective as the foremost expert on empowering women to live up to their financial and personal potential.

Barbara Huson has been featured on Good Morning America, The View, Extra, The O’Reilly Report, and many times on CNN, MSNBC, CNBC, Fox News, PBS, NPR, and the New York Times, and USA Today.

Barbara is the author of 7 books:

  • Prince Charming Isn’t Coming: How Women Get Smart About Money 
  • Secrets of Six-Figure Women: Surprising Strategies to up Your Earnings and  Change Your Life 
  • Overcoming Underearning: A Five-Step Plan to a Richer Life 
  • Finding a Financial Advisor You Can Trust: A Guide for Investors and Those Who  Want To Be 
  • Breaking Through: Getting Past the Stuck Points in Your Life 
  • Sacred Success: A Course in Financial Miracles 

Barbara Huson on Financial Writing

“I never expected to be a financial writer.” Although she grew up in a wealthy family, her father’s only advice about money was ‘don’t worry.’ She married a stockbroker and found out early in her marriage that he was also a compulsive gambler.

“And the insane part is that I continued to let him manage the money for the 15 years we were married. He did everything and I just signed whatever he told me to sign.” So not only was he losing the money they earned as a couple, but he also squandered away Barbara’s inheritance. At this point, she decided she didn’t want to deal with money.

She had three daughters at the time of her divorce and found a job as a journalist writing for the San Francisco Business Times. “I was hired for a freelance project to interview women who were smart with money. Those interviews changed my life. I not only got smart about money, but I wrote my first book brainstorming.”

Women and Wealth Building

Barbara says that we’ve been enculturated to believe that women aren’t good with money. “We’ve come to believe that money and finances are overwhelming and mystifying.” However, she says that controlling your financial situation can be simple, and we should take time to get smarter.

In addition, Barbara notes that women are generally less confident about making financial decisions than men. “When it comes to financial decisions, I find that I still ask my husband or somebody else.” Lastly, financial planners will defer to husbands or male partners when both partners come in for advice.

She reminds us, “The more we understand and know about money, the more confident we will be, the more apt we are to make decisions for ourselves.” Barbara also notes that we don’t have to make financial decisions alone. Getting a coach or financial planner is a good step in the right direction.

Her recommendations? Make sure you are making your decisions from an informed place, from a place of knowledge. She has three steps you can take to gain more understanding about money. When you do these three steps consistently for the next few months, you will be amazed at how you feel.

Barbara Huson’s Three Steps to Financial Freedom

First, take a few minutes each day to check out the latest financial news. Whether that is online, reading a financial magazine or book, you want to get educated. She says you’ll want to familiarize yourself with financial jargon and current trends. “I remember subscribing to the Wall Street Journal and I couldn’t understand what it said. So I took what was then section C the finance section, and I put it on the kitchen counter.”

Secondly, talk with financial experts. Barbara said she would invite others out to coffee to pick their brain. Most people were willing to chat about finances with her.

Lastly, make sure you have savings transferred from your checking account or your payroll check into a savings account. You can start small by adding $10 a month. The point is that you want to make this a habit. When you are consistent with savings over time, your money will add up quickly.

Why Women Aren’t Earning Fair Wages

“There’s three reasons why I believe women aren’t earning what they deserve and what they’re worth,” says Barbara.

First, she says, we don’t value ourselves. Second, we don’t respect what we bring to the table, so we give away our knowledge, experience, and time for free or bargain prices.

Secondly, women can be codependent when we put everybody else’s needs before our own. By setting solid boundaries, nurturing ourselves, and serving ourselves, we can stop codependency.

Third, we need to be uncomfortable. “The number one requirement to go to the next level of earnings or anything in life is the willingness to be uncomfortable.” The willingness to do what you don’t think you can do.

It’s important to value yourself, respect yourself, create strong boundaries and take care of yourself. “Most importantly of all, do what you fear because that’s how you succeed.”

Why Money Mindset is Important

“One day I started feeling that I was losing interest in my work. I started feeling something was missing.” This went on for some time, and after praying and reflecting, she read a neuroscience article and knew she came across the missing piece.

She started to study neuroscience and see how she could integrate this science into the process she was using to educate women about finances. She found that neuroscience practices could expedite the learning process and weaken fears associated with money.

Resistance as a Pillar of Change

Resistance is a sign that you’re changing. This is a normal feeling that happens when you deviate from the norm. Your brain says that new things are dangerous, and it resists any change. Resistance is the psychological reaction to an internal conflict. She recommends working with your resistance, looking at why your resistance is trying to protect your psyche. Realize that once you get past resistance and being scared, success is on the way!

Bringing the Past Into Your Financial Future

Barbara began attracting very high earners several years ago. “When my book Secrets of Six-figure Women came out, I started attracting women that were making six, seven, and eight figures.” At this point, she realized that there was usually trauma, deep pain, or unresolved emotions that they were keeping down. The financial turmoil became a distraction from the emotional pain of past trauma.

“Trauma is relative and trauma has many faces. It’s not just being beaten. It can come from seeing a parent ill or having your brother bully you. Our logical rational brain immediately shuts down and we go into fight, flight or freeze.” This is the reason she focuses on trauma work with women, referring them to a trauma therapist.

Rewire Your Brain for Wealth: the Basic Three Steps

“The three steps are recognize, reframe, and respond.” The first step is to recognize negative thoughts. Recognize your negative thoughts now with criticism or judgment, but recognize and become aware so you can change your thought patterns. Then separate yourself from the thought. Finally, remember to acknowledge with curiosity, reframe with a more positive affirmation and respond as if that reframe was true.

Become a Powerful Woman

Barbara says, “My definition of a powerful woman is someone who knows who she is, knows what she wants, and expresses herself in the world unapologetically.

Essentially our fear of power is our fear becoming all we can be instead of watering ourselves down. So if you’re having money problems, I suggest diving in deeper and becoming aware of why you’re afraid to be fully who you are.”

Using Consistency to Build Your Business with Kimberly Olson

Recently, I sat down to chat with Kimberly Olson. She has a fascinating story and is a self-made millionaire after being laid off without notice from her six-figure corporate job before COVID.

Read on to find out what she recommends about online marketing, selling your service, and how to show up authentically for your followers.

How Kimberly Landed in Online Marketing

Kimberly decided to get into online marketing in March of 2017. She says, “I had done blogging and YouTube videos for about a decade, but never enough to leave my job.” Unfortunately, she was let go of her corporate job without notice while eight months pregnant. Worrying about paying her bills, she started running boot camps at her home and hustling however she could to make money.

Having recently built their dream home, Kimberly was in a financial bind. She and her husband emptied their 401k and lived off of credit cards. Taking a job locally to make ends meet, she would come home exhausted and not present for her kids. Then, one day, a friend asked her about network marketing. “She had quite the varied background in sales, including network marketing.” After working for a month, she brought home a paycheck of $200.

Realizing she was self-sabotaging, she enlisted professional support, hired a therapist who was also a Reiki healer, and six weeks later, she had reprogrammed her mind. “I woke up and I was like, I’m going to crush this day” She stepped into her own and started showing up and servicing for good.

Building a Presence on Social Media

Kimberly started showing up on social media with live videos on marketing advice. Her followers began asking her to coach them on digital marketing. Branding in 2018 as “The Gold Digger Girl, Kimberly built 17 streams of income. Hitting six figures in 90 days, she had turned around her mindset and her fortune.

She credits her business success to being consistent and top of mind for her followers. “They know the sun is rising, that you’re going to be there for them. It’s about being yourself, showing up authentically and caring about people.”

The Idea Notebook

To make sure she remembered her new business ideas, she carried around a notebook with her wherever she went and wrote down ideas as they came to her. She used this notebook to create and write down her business goals.

Self-Sabotaging Your Own Success

Did you know that self-sabotaging can happen when business is good? Your subconscious mind doesn’t like change, so you’ll need to recognize if you are self-sabotaging. When I work with clients, I let them know they need to give their brains a roadmap.

Having a physical roadmap as a visual and getting to action with momentum gives you confidence. You’re like; I got this. And then you take the next step and the next step and the next step. Now you can change your situation and grow personally and professionally.

Why Kimberly Decided to Become an Author

When she thinks back to why she wanted to write a book, she talks about her beautiful Pinterest moms who followed her because of her authenticity. She didn’t filter or touch up her photos because she wanted to be authentic.

We both agree that you should be under the mindset that what you see is what you get! “I think that people energetically can sense and they’re really drawn to it.” Of course, you can show up with or without makeup, but for Kimberly, showing up with dirty hair connects with her crowd. “I’ll tell people I haven’t washed my hair for seven days. They love that. They’re like, oh my gosh, she doesn’t wear mascara and doesn’t wash her hair. Oh, my gosh. It’s so awesome.”

All the moms celebrate because they can relate to having to put yourself last when you have kids. “That’s what people want. They want real. And people will be drawn to you like a moth to a flame if you’re authentic because they can sense it.”

Feeling Better About Business When You Are Disciplined

I had the discipline to build a business. If you’re disciplined, you’ll feel better about yourself. You have the freedom to start feeling good about yourself, and you have a good relationship and rapport with yourself.

Discipline creates structure so remember to place unstructured time in your schedule to have more freedom. Kimberly notes it’s essential to spend time with your kids when they are around and then do your work once they are in bed. At 10 pm, it’s go-time for her to build her empire to focus on her business once her kids are asleep. “You have to schedule and plan your work and then you can actually disconnect because it’s unstructured time that is planned.”

What You Should Be Doing on Social Media 

Kimberly says, “If you look at trends, Instagram is not going away.” She recommends going live, creating a YouTube channel, and producing a podcast. She also recommends ripping the audio from your video to create your podcast. “Think of micro content when you create a YouTube or a podcast. Take a one-minute clip, splice it up and put it in your stories.”

Building Connection and Rapport on Social

She highly recommends selfies and other personal content on your personal profile. However, she doesn’t recommend hiding behind a business page or pay-to-play ads.

Instead, show who you are through your content, so it’s not just you pitching your program or whatever you have to offer.

Kimberly Olson’s Top Three Sales Tips for Entrepreneurs

Kimberly has great advice when it comes to sales. “When you are thinking about selling, stop thinking about selling and ask yourself, how can I mentor these people?” She often directs followers to one of her videos or podcast episodes to answer a question in-depth. If she doesn’t have the content on her platform, she will find another person with content that will answer their question.

When she helps people find what they need, they come back to her over and over again. Then she can pitch coaching and her program.

Secondly, Kimberly says you want to ask great questions to identify the pain point. Uncover their pain point by asking questions.

Third, follow up like a boss and ask for the sale. “You need all your leads in some kind of CRM. If you want to build an empire, whether it’s six figures, seven figures, you need to pull up your big girl panties and you need to get organized because if you’re not, you’re leaving money on the table because most people need more time.”
