Positive Solutions 4 Life-Transforming Your Mind & Body from the Inside Out

Keeping More of Your Money with Lynn Webb

In this episode, we sit down with Lynn Webb, a passionate educator and expert in small business finance, who shares powerful insights on how business owners can keep more money in their pockets—simply by paying attention to their books and adopting better financial habits. Lynn breaks down the essential difference between accountants and bookkeepers, sheds light on a commonly missed tax deduction (mileage!), and offers practical strategies for building a stronger, more profitable business.
Key Takeaways:
✅ Accountants vs. Bookkeepers – What’s the Difference?
Accountants are rear-facing. They work from the rearview mirror, looking at what already happened over the year to prepare your tax return.
Bookkeepers are present-focused. They're in the trenches daily, recording transactions and tracking behaviors—like spending, travel, and more—that impact your bottom line.
✅ The Overlooked Goldmine: Mileage Tracking
Business owners often forget to track vehicle mileage—yet it’s a legitimate tax write-off for business-related activities like picking up supplies or meeting clients.
Lynn’s tip: “If you have a piece of paper in your hand, you probably traveled to get it.”
Use simple tools like Google Timeline to automatically track travel. Just remember—documentation is key.
✅ Trust and Relationship Matter
Business owners don’t just need a numbers person—they need a trusted advisor. Someone who gets to know them and their business behaviors.
A great bookkeeper or accountant doesn’t just crunch numbers—they ask questions, offer advice, and help you make better decisions.
✅ The #1 Tax Mistake Business Owners Make
Procrastinating on bookkeeping.
It might seem expensive to pay for bookkeeping help, but disorganized or inaccurate books often lead to higher taxes and missed deductions.
✅ Lynn’s Best Advice for Small Business Owners:
Work with a bookkeeper/accountant you trust. Build a relationship with someone who understands you.
Change three financial habits. Small shifts can lead to big savings.
Book CEO Time. Regularly (weekly, monthly, or quarterly) step back from daily tasks to review the big picture. Ask:
Am I making money?
What needs to change?
What do I need to do better?
How are my finances shaping my decisions?

The Heaviness of Thoughts: How Our Words Shape Our Energy

In this empowering episode of Positive Solutions 4 Life, host Peggy Meyer takes you on a powerful journey into the weight of your thoughts and the language you use daily. Ever feel drained without doing much? It might not be your body—it could be your mind carrying too many mental “rocks.”
Peggy unpacks how thoughts like fear, worry, and self-doubt not only affect your mood and motivation but also have a profound impact on your physical energy, emotional well-being, and even spiritual connection. Backed by principles from science and metaphysics—including the Law of Vibration and Dr. David Hawkins' Frequency Chart of Emotions—this episode shows how your inner dialogue shapes the energy you radiate.
🔑 In This Episode, You’ll Learn:
🎒 How negative thoughts are like rocks in a backpack—and why your climb gets harder the more you carry.
📻 The Law of Vibration and how emotions like shame and joy exist on totally different frequencies.
💬 Why words matter—and how small shifts in language create massive energetic upgrades.
💓 What your body knows—How stress, even from just thinking, can spike your heart rate and exhaust your system.
📱 Analogy Central—Your body as a battery, your mind as a radio, and your thoughts as apps draining energy.
💡 Five Practical Tools to lighten your mental load, raise your vibration, and shift your state:
Name It to Tame It – Increase awareness without judgment.
Rewrite the Script – Flip disempowering phrases into possibility statements.
Move Your Body – Shake out stagnation with physical activity.
Mindful Breathing – Use breath to reset and regulate.
Tune Your Inner Radio – Choose a higher frequency thought, like changing the station from static to a feel-good playlist.
✨ Key Takeaway:
You are not broken—you may just be tuned into the wrong mental frequency or carrying a backpack full of limiting thoughts. The good news? You can switch the station and drop the rocks anytime. Your energy is yours to reclaim.

From Physics to Feelings: Embracing the Third Element with Randy Lyman

In this deeply insightful episode, Randy Lyman shares his extraordinary journey from a left-brained physicist mindset to embracing a spiritual, emotion-centered life philosophy. It all began with a chance encounter and a powerful conversation about energy—and everything changed.
Here’s what we dive into:
🔹 The Three Pillars of Experience: Thoughts, actions, and emotions. Randy explains how everything in life falls into these three categories—and why emotions are the most often ignored.
🔹 Facing the Feelings We Fear: Most people shy away from negative emotions because they’re uncomfortable or painful. But Randy reminds us: feeling is healing. Only by facing our emotions can we truly move past them.
🔹 Happiness Is a Choice: Discover how happiness isn’t just a feeling—it’s a decision. Randy explains how to uncover the things that make us unhappy, embrace the discomfort, and choose a better state of being.
🔹 The Role of the Ego: The ego tries to protect us from pain—but it can also trap us in it. Learn how to work through emotional pain, not suppress it, to experience real freedom.
🔹 His Book – The Third Element: A powerful exploration of how the universe really works, how emotional pain is our greatest teacher, and how to find the hidden gift inside every hardship.
🔹 True Change Starts Within: The only way to shift your external reality is by transforming your inner world—your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors.
🔹 Healing Through the Body: Thoughts can’t heal emotions. Randy shares two powerful practices—breathwork and journaling—to move through emotional pain and into peace.
🔹 Law of Attraction as a Tool, Not a Master: We are powerful creators. What we focus on expands. Intention shapes reality—and Randy breaks down how we can use this law to serve us, not control us.
🔹 Acceptance vs. Allowing: Acceptance doesn’t mean approval. It means acknowledging reality, learning the lesson, and moving forward.
🔹 You Deserve More: Everyone is worthy of a better life. Randy leaves us with the powerful message that we all have the capacity to grow, evolve, and thrive.
