What I love about our conversation is how she shares all of this extremely important information. I'm not sure about you, but when I have talked to financial planners in the past, I left confused, not really sure where to start and feeling a little behind, to be honest. 

Alison shares her own personal journey to financial freedom and answers these questions: 

1. When people about financial planning, I feel like they think of budgets and household expenses, or in business, P &L's, but there's so much more, right? Can you share what a great financial plan/strategy would look like?
2. Do people get overwhelmed when they think about financial planning? How can they overcome that?
3. Does financial planning look different for business owners than it does for people with full-time jobs?
4. What advice would you give entrepreneurs regarding getting their financial plan rolling? Where should they start?
5. What are some common mistakes you see?
6. What is the #1 thing people need to know about financial planning?

This week's episode of Bubbles & Biz is so insightful and my guest shares a ton of valuable information! She is an entrepreneur, author and has an incredible story so grab a galss and let's chat!

At 23, Michelle Jacobik was obsessed with business, avidly consuming content from Zig Ziglar and Tony Robbins, living the high life with sports cars and vacations - and deeply in debt after years of credit card overages and payday loans. She began turning her financial life around; six years later, she purchased an insurance business and systematically expanded annual revenue from $600k to $12 million.

Jacobik later sold her business after decades of growth, and now advises startup entrepreneurs on mastering the financial planning necessary to build a profitable venture.As a startup consultant, motivational speaker, and author, Jacobik emphasizes the business success that can emerge when an entrepreneur algins their vision with their cash flow strategy. She helps founders avoid the financial pitfalls that are all too common when launching a venture, and is an expert at empowering them to locate the profit streams that can transform a business (and an entrepreneur’s life).

Jacobik is the best-selling author of two books: “The Path to Profits: An Entrepreneur’s Guide to Having it All, and Still Having a Life” and “Prosperity After Divorce: Take Charge of Your Finances and Create the Life You Want.” Her expertise extends to tax preparation and estate planning; she also held a securities license for over 20 years.

Short-form content is taking over... are you keeping up? This week on Bubbles & Biz, we dive into why bite-sized videos are dominating the marketing world, straight from HubSpot’s 2025 Marketing Trends Report.

But here’s the real challenge: getting started. If you’ve been hesitant to put yourself out there, this episode is for you! We break down why showing up imperfectly is better than not showing up at all—and why human-driven content wins every time. 💯

Plus, we wrap up with an inspiring mindset shift: “The tragedy of life is not death, but what we let die inside of us while we live.” (Norman Cousins) If you’ve got ideas brewing, this is your sign to stop overthinking and start creating.
