   #81. The Business of Being Funny with Comedian Mark Cordes

   What does it take to turn making people laugh into a career that lasts nearly four decades? This week, we’re joined by comedian Mark Cordes (https://www.instagram.com/thespousewhisperer/?hl=en), whose unexpected journey into stand-up began with a dare at an open mic night and turned into a career performing in 49 states and 28 countries. Mark shares how he went from selling real estate to making comedy his full-time business, why he learned early on that it’s called show business for a reason, and how he expanded his income opportunities beyond traditional comedy clubs to corporate events, cruise ships, and opening for legendary musicians. Treat your passion like a business. Being talented is only part of building a sustainable career. Showing up professionally, understanding your customers, and managing the business side of your work are just as important. Look beyond the obvious ways to make money. Mark expanded his comedy career by recognizing opportunities in corporate events, cruise ships, and concert venues, proving that the same talent can generate income in multiple markets. Experiment, fail, refine, and repeat. Stand-up comedy requires constantly testing new material, learning from audience reactions, and making adjustments. The same willingness to experiment can help anyone improve their work and discover new opportunities. Build relationships instead of focusing on competition. Mark credits professionalism, word of mouth, and long-standing industry connections for much of his career success. Celebrating others’ achievements can be more productive than comparing yourself to them. Find the intersection of purpose, passion, and profit. Mark follows ikigai — finding work you love, are good at, that serves others, and that people will pay for. A fulfilling career brings those elements together.

   #80. Financial Planning When You Don't Live a Traditional Life (with Kelley Long)

   What does it really mean to be good with money? And how do you plan for financial independence when your life doesn’t follow the traditional path of marriage, homeownership, and kids? In this episode, we’re joined by Kelley Long (https://www.financialblisscoach.com/), CPA, financial planner, and author of But Who Will Take Care of You When You’re Old? Financial Planning for Life Without Kids. Kelley shares how she found herself in five-figure credit card debt three different times despite her financial expertise, and the mindset shifts that finally helped her break the cycle. Kelley also shares important considerations for planning a future without children, from long-term care and estate planning to having honest conversations with loved ones about money, aging, and expectations. 1. Being good with money requires more than financial knowledge. Even financial experts can struggle with debt and spending, making it important to understand the beliefs, habits, and emotional patterns behind your financial decisions. 2. Give your side hustle income a specific job. Whether you’re paying off student loans, building savings, or funding a purchase, assigning a purpose to each additional income stream can help you make more intentional financial decisions. 3. Homeownership isn’t always the best way to build wealth. When you factor in mortgage interest, property taxes, insurance, maintenance, and opportunity costs, renting and investing the difference may sometimes leave you financially better off. 4. Planning for aging is important whether or not you have children. Building a support system, preparing for long-term care, and putting financial and legal protections in place can help you maintain independence and protect your quality of life as you age. 5. Have conversations about money and estate planning before a crisis happens. Discussing financial expectations, caregiving responsibilities, and estate plans with loved ones can help prevent misunderstandings, protect relationships, and ensure your wishes are understood.

   #79. Building a Handmade Candy Business from Scratch (with Süss Candy)

   What happens when you take something as nostalgic as candy and rethink how it’s made from the ground up? In this episode, we sit down with Julia, founder of Süss Candy (https://susscandy.com/), a handmade, small-batch candy company inspired by her Austrian heritage and a desire to create treats for her kids using simpler, more natural ingredients. Julia shares how she went from experimenting with candy recipes at home to selling at local markets, collaborating with other small businesses, creating custom treats, and building a growing community around her products. We also dig into the trial and error behind developing the perfect flavor and texture, why in-person markets have been so important to her business, and her ultimate dream of opening a candy shop where customers can watch the magic happen. A business idea can start with solving a problem in your own life. Julia didn’t set out to become a candy entrepreneur. She started experimenting because she wanted treats for her kids made with ingredients she felt better about. Creating a standout product takes a lot of experimentation. From getting caramel texture exactly right to developing intensely sour Fizzy Chews and figuring out what works in a freeze dryer, Julia’s products have been built through plenty of trial, error, tweaking, and taste testing. Local collaborations can make a small business more distinctive. Süss (https://susscandy.com/) incorporates ingredients from other local businesses and has collaborated with brands like Funky’s Hot Sauce to create completely new candy experiences. In-person experiences can be a powerful customer acquisition strategy. Markets give Julia the chance to offer samples, talk directly with customers, learn what they love, and create relationships that can later turn into repeat and online customers. People aren’t just buying the product—they’re buying the experience around it. From knowing who made their candy to meeting local vendors and discovering something they can’t find everywhere else, the episode explores why markets and small businesses can offer a much more personal experience than a purely transactional purchase.
