She Spent More Than She Made for Three Years and Was Too Ashamed to Tell Anyone: Nicole Laino on Debt, Human Design, and Finally Breaking Through

How Dare I Second Guess What I'm Capable Of: Dr. Courtney Bolduc on Walking Away From a Partnership, Building Confidence, and Rebuilding From Scratch

What happens when you finally realize the partnership you chose out of fear is the very thing holding you back? In this episode of Manifest, Manage & Multiply Money, Audrey Faust sits down with Dr. Courtney Bolduc, family wellness chiropractor and owner of The Cove Chiropractic in Maitland, Florida. Courtney's story is one of the most honest and relatable on this podcast — a young entrepreneur who entered a business partnership because she didn't yet believe she could do it alone, felt resentment creeping in after just one year, and made the terrifying decision to walk away, rebrand, and rebuild entirely on her own. In just three years Courtney has built a thriving multi-six figure chiropractic practice with an associate chiropractor, an office manager, and a team she is proud to lead. She opens up about the grieving process that came with ending the partnership, how therapy helped her sit with her feelings instead of running from them, and the moment she realized she already had all the answers she had been outsourcing to someone else. She also shares a powerful conversation about the breadwinner belief she inherited from watching her single mom work 80 hours a week and how she is finally learning it is okay to relax, receive support, and not be in hustle mode every single day. If you have ever second guessed what you are capable of, this episode will remind you that the confidence was always inside you.

I'm OK If the Worst Thing You Say About Me Is I Failed: Dr. Braley Bourque, Multi-Seven Figure CEO, on Betting on Yourself and Knowing Your Worth

What would you attempt if failing didn't scare you as much as never trying? In this episode of Manifest, Manage & Multiply Money, Audrey Faust sits down with Dr. Braley Bourque, multi-seven figure CEO, entrepreneur, speaker, and founder of three businesses at just 30 years old. Dr. Braley spent years scaling someone else's company from 5 to 35 locations with zero equity before making the decision to bet on herself and build something of her own. Today she leads Insight Neuro, a TBI diagnostic imaging company with over 20 locations in Georgia, The Clarity Way MD, a telemed peptide therapy company, and Elevate Her Healthcare Solutions, a community and event series bringing together women entrepreneurs, mothers, and faith-driven leaders. She paid back her investors early, built a 25 page operating agreement from hard lessons learned, and has cultivated a life that looks exactly like the one she used to create in a Sims game as a kid. One of the keys to her rapid growth? She knew her numbers before she ever opened her doors. Dr. Braley understood from day one that profitability is not an afterthought — it is the strategy. She has a CFO and a bookkeeper, meets with them monthly, and has never let emotions drive her financial decisions. That discipline is exactly how she scaled so fast and why her investors got paid back early. In this conversation Dr. Braley opens up about growing up in a blue collar family where her dad told her her dreams weren't realistic, why she considers her unshakable confidence both a gift and something she had to fight to keep, what it really means to know your worth in business, and why she believes not going for it scared her far more than failing ever could. If you have ever held yourself back out of fear of what people might say, this episode will change how you think about risk, worth, and what you are actually here to do. Chapters 00:00 — Introduction to Dr. Braley Bourque 02:13 — The three businesses and what drives her passion 05:41 — Scaling someone else's company with zero equity and what it taught her 09:06 — Paying back investors early and building something profitable fast 10:27 — Knowing your worth and pricing with confidence 13:38 — Why knowing your numbers is non-negotiable in business 17:50 — Not paying herself in year one and showing her team the numbers 20:01 — Partnership lessons and the two Cs of finding the right partners 21:48 — Money beliefs growing up in a blue collar family 25:40 — Unshakable confidence and where it really came from 28:21 — How inner work and practical business strategy come together 32:27 — The Sims moment and living the life she used to dream about 36:06 — Dr. Braley's free gift and where to find her 38:14 — Message to women on the edge of their next level In This Episode You'll Learn: * Why scaling someone else's business with no equity can be the most valuable education you ever get * How confidence is built through replicable results not just mindset work * Why not going for it scared Dr. Braley far more than the possibility of failing * What the two Cs of partnership are and why getting this wrong will cost you equity * How showing your team your numbers builds trust and creates a culture of transparency * Why knowing your numbers before you open your doors is one of the most powerful growth strategies available * What it means to be a CEO versus an entrepreneur and why understanding the difference matters * How Dr. Braley built a multi-seven figure business while navigating motherhood faith and marriage * Why the person who got you to two million probably cannot get you to four million Guest Free Gift If you are curious about peptide therapy and what it could do for your energy, focus, recovery, or overall capacity as an entrepreneur and mother, Dr. Braley Bourque is offering a free consultation through The Clarity Way MD.

Two Years Ago She Was Stuck. Today She's Multi-Seven Figures: Kim Mohr on the Capacity Problem That Changed Everything

What does it actually take to go from being on the cusp of seven figures to building a thriving multi-seven figure legacy business? In this episode of Manifest, Manage & Multiply Money, Audrey Faust sits down with Kim Mohr, founder and principal designer of Dream House Studios, a luxury residential interior design firm she has grown over two decades into a nearly entirely word of mouth practice serving custom home and legacy renovation clients across Maryland. Kim is also a former client of Audrey's, and her transformation is one of the most powerful examples of what becomes possible when a business owner finally lets go of doing it all alone. Two years ago Kim was on the fence about even continuing her business. She was stuck in scarcity and fear, convinced the only path to success was working harder and longer hours. Then came the moment that changed everything. You don't have a business problem. You have a capacity problem. That single reframe became Kim's lightbulb moment, and it sparked a transformation that took her from a solo designer doing everything herself to a CEO building a business with a real succession plan, a growing team, and the freedom to take a month long trip without the business missing a beat. In this conversation Kim opens up about growing up with money shame, putting groceries back in the store as a kid, and how getting choosy with clients actually doubled her revenue. She also shares the moment an investor asked her a question that changed the entire trajectory of her business: if something happens to you, who is running the show? If you have ever believed that working harder is the only way to grow, this episode will show you a completely different path.

My Worth Is Tied to Who I Am Not What I Do: How Molly Jones Built a Seven Figure Architecture Firm by Stopping the Effort and Trusting the Universe

What if the thing standing between you and your next level wasn't more effort — but less? In this episode of Manifest, Manage & Multiply Money, Audrey Faust sits down with Molly Jones, seven figure CEO, founder of Jones Design Studio, national chair of the Design Build Institute of America's owner advisor committee, and founder of Mojo Mysticism, a spiritual coaching practice helping others remember who they truly are. Molly spent years hitting the same ceiling in her architecture firm. She tried coaching programs, did the inner work, and still couldn't break through. Until she realized the one subconscious block she hadn't fully addressed: her worth was tied to how much she did. The moment she decided that was no longer true — that her worth was tied to who she was, not what she produced — everything fell into place. In this conversation Molly shares her unforgettable counting Elvis's story, how a voice she heard crossing Las Vegas Boulevard predicted exactly where she would be four years later, why she stopped doing hourly work entirely and transitioned to value based pricing, and what happened when she started bringing love into her architecture practice. This is one of the most spiritually rich and practically grounded conversations on this podcast yet.
