Welcome to Cut the BS, Build the Dream. I’m Brittney Kosev—single mom, former school librarian turned real estate broker, entrepreneur, and investor. I’ve built a life I once only dreamed of, but I’m still becoming the woman I want to be. And I want you to grow right alongside me. This podcast is all about mindset, business, and cutting through the noise to get real results. No fluff, no excuses—just the tools and inspiration we need to build our dream lives together. As I grow, we grow. Let’s do this.
What Do You Actually Want? Passion, Desire & Imagination?
Last episode, we talked about the problem with manifestation and why constantly living in the future can pull us away from the only place we actually have power: the present.
So what happens when we come back?
We ask a surprisingly difficult question: What do I actually want?
In this episode, I’m exploring passion, desire, imagination, and why wanting more doesn’t mean you’re ungrateful for what you already have. We’ll talk about borrowing belief when fear makes your dreams smaller, why your brain suddenly starts seeing “Broncos” everywhere, and how to separate what you truly desire from what you’ve been taught you should want.
You don’t need an action plan for this one. No SMART goals. No spreadsheet. Just a little space to remember what makes you feel alive, imagine what could be next, and let yourself want something without immediately needing to know how you’re going to get there.
Maybe desire isn’t proof that something is missing.
Maybe it’s evidence that you’re still expanding.

You Can’t Manifest a Life You Won’t Participate In
I took a little break from the podcast, but I never stopped doing the inner work. And lately, I can’t stop thinking about manifestation.
I believe our thoughts matter. I believe in alignment, abundance, and intention. But somewhere along the way, manifestation started sounding a lot like waiting. Visualize it. Believe it. Trust the universe.
I call bullshit.
In this episode, I’m unpacking what manifestation actually requires: awareness, responsibility, and action. Because you can dream about the life you want all day long, but eventually, you have to participate in creating it.

Lies Keeping You Stuck: Money Is Hard to Make
Have you ever caught yourself saying:
"Money is hard to make."
What if that belief is the very thing keeping you stuck?
In Part 2 of the *Lies Keeping You Stuck* series, Brittney Kosev explores how childhood programming, scarcity thinking, and identity shape our relationship with money far more than market conditions, education, or opportunity.
Growing up hearing phrases like "money doesn't grow on trees" and "you have to work hard to make money," Brittney carried the belief that wealth belonged to other people—until entrepreneurship, personal development, and a deeper understanding of value creation challenged everything she thought she knew.
In this episode, you'll learn:
* How scarcity programming impacts the brain
* Why your nervous system may resist financial growth
* The difference between earning money and creating value
* Lessons from *The Go-Giver* that transformed Brittney's business
* How entrepreneurship rewired her relationship with wealth
* Why receiving can be harder than earning
* The mindset shift from making money to stewarding wealth
* How abundance creates opportunities you can't always see in the moment
Through personal stories of leaving teaching, building a real estate business, growing BK Real Estate, and creating over $110,000 in personal production during a single month, Brittney shares the lessons that helped her move from scarcity to abundance.
Because money isn't just a skill.
It's an identity.
And identities can be rewritten.
As always, ask yourself:
What beliefs about money am I carrying that aren't actually mine?
