| 10 May 2023 | Ep 87: BITCH-A New Kind of Bitch: The Power and Stigma of the Word | 00:22:02 | |
This week we’re talking about the evolution of the word "bitch" with the creators of the Virgin Beauty Bitch Podcast, Christopher and Heather. They share personal stories on the reclamation of the word's power and autonomy for women. Virgin Beauty B!tch aren’t words women can dismiss or escape. These words are ideas and ideals that have become a birthright of power and privilege passed on in the psyche of men to boys. We must understand how these three words suppress, dictate, and suck the humanity out of women’s lives. We discuss the history and power of the word “bitch” in modern North American culture, including its origins in ancient Greek and Nordic culture and the Bible, and begin to understand femininity beyond tradition and patriarchy. During our conversation, we talk about: • The word bitch carries emotional weight for women due to its historical use as a power tool to subordinate them. • The rise of the term bad bitch in pop culture has helped women redefine the word as a symbol of autonomy and empowerment. • Men use the word as a power tool to establish dominance over women. • The word bitch varies across different areas of everyday culture and has prickly edges that are hard to define. • The word Karen has a universal meaning and applies to a specific behavior, whereas bitch can take on various personas and attitudes. • "Bitch" refers to women fighting for the right to vote during women's suffrage in the United States.

Today, we've got a fantastic guest, Erica Goode, the mastermind behind an accounting firm that offers top-notch bookkeeping and CFO services. Our paths, though unexpected, are paved with the same passion: helping women ace the juggling act of career and family. Let's delve into today's central topic: dispelling the notion that zero taxes are the ultimate goal. While it may work in specific sectors, it's a different story for solopreneurs and consultants. There's no secret recipe; sidestepping taxes means operating at zero profit, which hinders business growth. We explore tax strategies like equipment depreciation in farming and construction, but I emphasize caution. Paying taxes is pivotal for a thriving society; I even discuss this with my kids. Striking a balance is crucial – neither overpaying nor inviting legal complications. For precise tax management, organized books are non-negotiable. I highlight the benefits of a fresh set of eyes in bookkeeping and the importance of recording every expense, even sneaky personal ones. Retirement planning is another hotspot, offering tax advantages and a secure future. Cash flow is queen. Understanding the ebb and flow of money aids wise decisions. As entrepreneurs, our aim isn't zero taxes but harmonizing financial and business aspirations. We're here to convert businesses into profit-makers, not costly hobbies.

| 28 Sep 2023 | Ep 107: TIME-Phone Efficiency - Maximizing Kids' Cell Phones and Yours | 00:08:41 | |
Hey there, welcome back to the Efficiency Bitch podcast! Today, we're diving into a hot topic: kids and cell phones. But we're not just talking about handing them over and crossing your fingers. No, no, we're all about using these gadgets to supercharge efficiency. So, here's the scoop: I gave my 10 and 12-year-old daughters cell phones, but with a twist. When they were younger, I started them off with Gizmo watches for safety and easy communication. As they got older, I handed them smartphones, but stripped away the social media and cellular service. Instead, it was all about efficiency and productivity. First up, I customized their home screens with essential widgets like calendars and weather forecasts. No more hunting for info - it's right there. I added school apps and parental controls to keep them on the right websites. Plus, I set up individual email addresses and synced their calendars with mine. Boom, instant time management skills. But wait, there's more! We tapped into the power of alarms. These tiny reminders work wonders for important tasks like wearing an ID or retainers. And guess what? These little tricks can help teenagers get organized and super efficient. But here's the real kicker: we adults often underuse our phones' potential. Take my brother-in-law, for example. He uses alarms to remember to take his vitamins. So, it's time for all of us to unlock our phones' true efficiency potential. If you've got some killer phone efficiency tips or stories, hit me up!

| 12 Oct 2023 | Ep 109: TIME-Streamlining Your Schedule, Calendar Efficiency Tips | 00:11:14 | |
Today, we're diving deep into the world of calendar efficiency because, let's face it, finding that perfect work-life balance is a constant juggling act. But don't worry; we have fantastic tools and strategies to help you stay on your game. First, let's talk about digital calendars and my favorite, Google Calendar. I swear by it! The seamless integration with all my email addresses makes life a breeze. Plus, the ability to color code events and tasks is a game-changer. Green for work, dark green for clients – it's like having a rainbow of productivity at your fingertips. And speaking of productivity, have you tried Calendly? It's my go-to for scheduling podcast recordings. Their user-friendly interface and automated features make scheduling a piece of cake. Just remember, when you're recording, make sure you've got a quiet and tidy space for that professional touch. But it's not all about work; family matters, too. I've linked my kids' calendars to our family one, so we're all on the same page. No more surprises or double bookings! And for that extra oomph, I've got an Echo Show in the kitchen, displaying our family calendar for everyone to see. It's a real game-changer. Here's where it gets interesting – the digital vs. paper calendar debate. I'm all for digital calendars, but there's something oddly satisfying about physically crossing off tasks in a paper planner. It's like a mini victory with each stroke of the pen. So, why not have the best of both worlds? To supercharge your day, try a daily action plan. Set those specific goals, intentions, and priorities. It's like having a GPS for your day – you know exactly where you're going. Juggling all aspects of life can be tough, but it's totally doable with the right tools and strategies. So, embrace those digital and paper calendars, make a killer daily action plan, and watch your efficiency soar. For more juicy tips and insights, hop over to efficiencybitch.com.

With the hubby away this week, I've noticed something surprising: things are oddly smooth. It got me pondering the dance of marriage dynamics. Turns out, it's not always that perfect 50-50 split. Someone's carrying the heavy lifting some days, and that's alright. But when energies clash, tensions can brew. My heart goes to the single parents, superheroes operating at full throttle without a breather. This insight made me craft a game plan for these periods. I sorted tasks, focusing on the ones usually brushed aside. This system’s been my North Star, keeping me organized and driven, even when life’s on fast-forward. If you're in a similar juggling act, know this: efficiency and balance aren't myths. Join me in creating a running list of tasks, waving goodbye to that endless race feeling. Only some things demand immediate attention. I used to pounce on tasks when they popped up, but I’ve learned the art of letting things sit. Sharing this with you reinforces my commitment to this mindset shift. I hope this resonates and brings a glimmer of positivity your way. My mission? To keep life as stress-free as possible so I can savor the masterpiece I've built. I wish the same for you, my dear listeners. Thanks for being part of the Beehive.

| 21 Dec 2023 | Ep 119: BANK- Rise Above Money Fog with Mikelann Valterra | 00:21:29 | |
Today's episode of the Efficiency Bitch Podcast focuses on rising above "money fog" - feeling stress and anxiety due to confusion about finances. Guest Mikelann Valterra, a money coach, defines money fog as fear, feeling overwhelmed or guilt from not having clarity about money. Signs of money fog include wondering where money went, not tracking spending, and not knowing how much money you need to live comfortably. Money is emotional because it relates to survival and childhood experiences. To rise above money fog, prune accounts to create "elegant simplicity" rather than having multiple credit cards and accounts that lead to losing the big picture. Exiting money fog opens up possibilities and dreams. You can start by closing unneeded accounts online.

Melissa shares a personal story about feeling overwhelmed trying to balance her career and family responsibilities. She would take on most of the household and childcare tasks in addition to her demanding job. This led to burnout and conflicts with her husband. They made a list of all the tasks and divided them more evenly between them. Over time, they also delegated age-appropriate chores to their kids. A year and a half ago, her husband left his job to work for their business. He now handles the majority of household tasks. Melissa realized recently that she no longer thinks about or remembers many of those tasks because they are fully off her plate. She explains that when responsibilities are not part of your routine, they fall out of your mind. She encourages listeners to delegate tasks that don't belong to them. It takes time, but you may not even remember what you used to do with them. Key Takeaways
