Today’s episode blends career strategy with financial know-how, because who says you can’t build your personal brand and your balance sheet at the same time?

Joe Saul-Sehy and OG explore what it really means to shape your professional reputation—from the way you show up in meetings to how you set (and measure) your career goals. Whether you're climbing the ladder, shifting industries, or mentoring others, this episode delivers practical ways to take control of how you're seen and what you stand for at work.

Inside this conversation:

• The “RAVE” model for boosting your brand


• Why being a cheerleader for your colleagues makes you a standout


• How appearances and visibility (yes, even your Zoom background) impact your path


• Real-world tips for growing your influence without bragging—or burning out

We also get into the intersection of tech and money:

• Is AI ready to replace financial advisors? (Short answer: not quite.)


• What metrics every financially literate person should understand


• And why your credit card points strategy might need a second look

Plus, Doug breaks out a trivia challenge involving coin collecting, and we unravel the very weird truth behind the 1 cent piece.

Whether you’re building a career, managing your money, or trying to do both with a little more polish—this episode’s packed with insights that stick.
