Ep 171More Than Money w/Jacquette M. Timmons: Here's a Different Take on How to View January— It's Not About Optimization Description
January often arrives with pressure- the push to go bigger, better, faster. But what if that instinct is steering you in the wrong direction?In today’s episode, “Here’s a Different Take on How to View January — It’s Not About Optimization,” host Jacquette invites you to rethink the start of the year entirely. Instead of rushing to optimize, she explores why slowing down, reimagining, and choosing with intention can set you up for a more grounded and sustainable year. Because when you lead with an optimization mindset, it’s easy to slip into overcommitment before you even realize it.This conversation is a reminder that perfection isn’t the path to your goals — financial or otherwise. Experimentation and openness are. When you allow for multiple outcomes, you stop defining success as a single, rigid result. So, give yourself permission to experiment. To trade certainty for honesty, and answers for awareness. Neither approach is “better,” but this episode offers you the freedom to explore what truly works for you.Financial Behaviorist Jacquette M. Timmons explores the psychology, emotions, and math of money each week so that you can make better, smarter choices regardless of where you fall on the income or wealth spectrum. #money #financialbehaviorist #jacquettetimmons #financialgrowthFor Clarity: Offer Portfolio Blueprint™ | Pricing Clarity for Entrepreneurs — Jacquette Timmonswww.jacquettetimmons.comwww.jacquettetimmons.com/digital-productswww.instagram.com/jacquettemtimmonsBuyMeACoffee.com/Jacquette Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Ep 169More Than Money w/Jacquette M. Timmons: What Really Tough Financial Years Reveal — That Calm Ones Don’t
Every entrepreneur needs this reminder: not every year will be a financial “win,” but every year, especially the hardest ones, can deliver lessons worth their weight in gold.In today’s episode, “What Really Tough Financial Years Reveal — That Calm Ones Don’t,” host Jacquette explores the surprising clarity that emerges when you review a year marked by challenge(s). In calmer seasons, the cracks often stay hidden, but in years like 2025, when revenue shifts, rising costs, and economic pressures collided, the truth had nowhere to hide. And that’s where the gifts were found.Tough years offer insights. They sharpen clarity. They create space to recalibrate. They push you to reimagine old offers, dream up new ones, and take a fresh look at the behind‑the‑scenes elements that shape your pricing and your strategy. So, celebrate what went well, acknowledge what was hard, and after recalibration, step forward with renewed hope and intention.Financial Behaviorist Jacquette M.

Ep 166Freedom Money: How Crypto Is Powering Social Justice Movements Around the World
In this timely episode of Confidently Crypto, Dr. Tonya M. Evans explores how cryptocurrency has become a lifeline for social justice movements around the world, from Nigerian feminists who kept the #EndSARS protests funded after banks froze their accounts, to Afghan women preserving their savings when the Taliban seized power, to Ukrainians receiving $225 million in wartime donations within weeks. But this isn't just a story about "over there." Tonight's breaking news that the Trump DOJ is criminally investigating Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell, in what Powell himself calls retaliation for setting interest rates based on evidence rather than presidential preference, brings the lesson home: government control of the financial system is one of the first tools authoritarian regimes use to control citizens. Americans have much to learn from Nigerians, Afghans, Ukrainians, and even Canadians whose bank accounts were frozen during the Freedom Convoy protests. When traditional finance becomes a weapon, cryptocurrency becomes resistance. This episode makes the case that crypto isn't just an investment ... it's infrastructure for freedom.

Ep 159More Than Money w/Jacquette M. Timmons: Here's an Uncomfortable Idea: Want More Success? Be Less Independent

Independence has its place, but when paired with interdependence, it becomes a force strong enough to overcome even the toughest obstacles.Financial Behaviorist Jacquette M.

Ep 152Bitcoin Crashed 33%—Don't Crash Out, Cash In (On Tax Savings) - Confidently Crypto
Bitcoin dropped from its all-time high of $126,210 to around $84,700—its worst month in two years. While retail investors panic-sell, institutional investors like Abu Dhabi's sovereign wealth fund are quietly buying the dip. So who's really losing here?In this episode of Confidently Crypto, Dr. Tonya M. Evans breaks down why this crash created the single biggest tax-saving opportunity of 2025—and why it expires December 31st. Dr. Evans explains tax-loss harvesting: a legal strategy that allows you to sell assets at a loss, offset your capital gains, and potentially save thousands on your tax bill. She reveals why crypto's unique tax treatment (no wash sale rule—yet) gives investors an advantage that stock traders don't have. The episode also provides critical historical context: Bitcoin has crashed 30%+ at least seven times, and every single crash has been followed by a recovery to new all-time highs. With only 21 million Bitcoin ever to exist—and 94% already in circulation—scarcity is built into the code. Unlike the dollar, no one can print more Bitcoin out of thin air. Dr. Evans encourages listeners to adopt a long-term perspective, think like institutional investors, and use this moment strategically rather than emotionally. She provides a step-by-step year-end action plan, breaks down new 2025 IRS per-wallet tracking requirements, and offers practical advice for navigating the current market conditions.Don't crash out in the crash.
