120. Daniel’s Guide to Setting Your Financial Goals for 2026

As we approach the end of the year, it’s time to get honest about our money. In this episode, we sit down together to unpack what it really means to reflect on our finances, understand our numbers, and set intentional goals for 2026.Daniel, Bo, and Julia break down why most agents live closing to closing, how commingling business and personal funds keeps us blind to the truth, and why running a P&L on both sides of our financial lives matters. We explore the Profit First method, the power of setting up multiple buckets, and how to build discipline through structure—not willpower.We also talk tax strategy: year-end deductions, depreciation, charitable giving, and why your CPA’s job (reducing taxable income) might conflict with your lender’s job (qualifying you for a loan). And we dive into the hierarchy of goals—I Promise, I Know, I Think, I Hope, I Pray—and how tying emotion to your goals creates real momentum.Whether you’re preparing for taxes, planning for growth, or simply trying to stop “living on swipe,” this conversation gives you the clarity, tools, and practical steps to make 2026 your strongest financial year yet.Resources:Learn more at The Color of MoneyRead Profit First by Mike MichalowiczBecome a real estate agent HEREConnect with Our HostsEmerick Peace:Instagram: @theemerickpeaceFacebook: facebook.com/emerickpeaceDaniel Dixon:Instagram: @dixonsolditFacebook: facebook.com/realdanieldixonLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/dixonsolditYouTube: @dixongroupcompaniesJulia Lashay:Instagram: @iamjulialashayFacebook: facebook.com/growwithjuliaLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/julialashay/YouTube: @JuliaLashayBo MenkitiInstagram: @bomenkitiFacebook: facebook.com/obiora.menkitiLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/bomenkiti/Produced by NOVAThis podcast is for general informational purposes only.
