Episode 07: Profit First Mindset: How Profit First Has Very Little to Do with Numbers and Everything to Do with Mindset

This episode hits where most financial advice misses: mindset. We’re unpacking Profit First and diving deep into why profit isn’t just a math problem. It’s a habit.

Katie gets real about what it actually takes to build a sustainably profitable business. We’re not talking about sacrificing your team or dodging your bills. We’re talking about real cash-in-the-bank profit, the kind that lets you pay yourself, grow your business, and finally breathe.
