If you’ve been avoiding your numbers this year—this is your sign to review them. I invited financial expert Emilie Nutley to join me for a powerful, no-fluff conversation about pricing your signature offer, paying yourself consistently, and a financial concept that will completely change the way you think about business finances: overflow.We talk about why you should never price based on competitors, why revenue is not the same as take-home pay, and how to build a business that brings you both joy and a paycheck. If you’ve ever had inconsistent income months, questioned your pricing, or treated your business like an ATM, this episode is for you.Find It Quickly01:19 – Meet Emilie Nutley03:16 – How Much Do You Want to Pay Yourself?04:37 – Revenue Goal ÷ Capacity = Price05:41 – Need vs. Want: What Do You Actually Have to Pay Yourself?06:11 – The Bare Bones Budget Explained09:05 – The Restrict/Binge Cycle with Money16:10 – What “Overflow” Is and Why It Matters18:41 – Profit Isn’t the End: What Happens After Profit21:40 – Using Overflow to Make Strategic Decisions24:20 – Overflow & Growth Decisions (Hiring, Investing, Time Off)25:11 – Revenue-Generating Hires vs. Expense Investments26:43 – The Simple Overflow Spreadsheet28:36 – Stop Living Month-to-Month in Your Business29:42 – The Habit of Paying Yourself Consistently33:08 – How Much Should You Be Saving?38:33 – The Freedom of Owning a Business40:46 – Focus on Your Signature Offer First44:17 – Thinking Long-Term: Retirement & Future PlanningConnect with EmilieWebsite: emilienutley.co.ukInstagram: instagram.com/emilienutleyYoutube: youtube.com/@fundthedamnlife
