  • The perception trap: how childhood rewires your reality - E-176
    Jun 5 2026

    Here's a fact that should disturb you: scientists estimate your brain processes 11 million bits of information every single second — but you're only consciously aware of about 50. So the question isn't what you see. The question is: who chose what you don't see? Today on Makes Sense with Dr. JC, we're going into the natural selection of perception — why the reality you're living in may not actually be yours, and exactly what it takes to rewire your brain and take it back.

  • Reasons You're Undercharging at Work — And the Money Coach Who Spent 25 Years Fixing It with - Jen Fontanilla - E175
    Jun 2 2026

    Money coach Jen Fontanilla spent 25 years designing for Disney before cracking the code on creative worth. Here's why you're undercharging — and how to stop.

    She spent 25 years creating packaging for Disney, Sony, and Target. She was good at her job — great, actually. But here's what nobody knew: she had no idea how to handle her own money. None. And she is not alone — because if you are a creative, a designer, a writer, a maker of any kind, the system was literally built to keep you broke and grateful for it. Today's guest is Jen Fontanilla — TEDx speaker, seven-time author, and the woman who turned her own financial rock bottom into a career dismantling the 'Starving Artist' myth one belief at a time. We are going to get into why you keep undercharging, why your childhood shaped your rates, and the one mindset shift that changes everything. Do not go anywhere.
