What does that version of myself show up? Taking care of my health, nourishing my body, having space and time in my days, treating every moment like a vibe.
This solo episode of the Unemployed podcast features host Paige Vandy, a former party girl turned multi-six-figure online fitness and business coach. Paige introduces her concept of "Million Dollar Mode," an energetics and embodiment practice for aligning daily actions with a future, elevated self. She frames this as essential holistic preparation for building a business capable of generating significant wealth. Paige explains that thoughts and emotions create a specific energetic frequency, which then attracts corresponding opportunities and people. She illustrates this with the contrasting examples of the elevated energy after signing a dream client versus the muted energy of feeling desperate for a sale. Her personal "Million Dollar Mode" is defined by feelings of complete financial and time freedom. Tangible examples from her life include prioritizing health through quality food and exercise, creating "vibe" moments like solo fancy dinners, and attending events to network with aspirational peers. She shares a personal breakthrough about how drinking alcohol made her feel less confident and shrunk her energy, contrary to common experience. A key insight is that this practice is about energy, not spending money you don't have. Paige suggests free or low-cost "activation" ideas like creating a home spa night with homemade masks, visiting open houses in desirable neighborhoods, or simply cleaning your kitchen to elevate your environment. She argues that small, aligned actions—like waking up earlier or maintaining good posture—compound to attract larger goals. Paige recounts using this mindset even when she was financially "broke," such as investing in better groceries and attending networking events with an abundant energy. She reveals a business "hack," noting that traveling during a launch serves as a pattern interrupt that draws more attention to your content. Paige shares that living in a luxury apartment in San Diego fundamentally shifted her expanded energy, which she believes directly attracted clients and grew her business. The practice also extends to curating friendships with positive, growth-oriented people who match the energy of your highest self. The episode's tone is highly conversational, confessional, and motivational, blending personal storytelling with direct coaching advice. Listeners who are entrepreneurial, enjoy mindset work, and respond to "vibe"-based, energetic approaches to business and life will find this episode compelling. Those seeking strictly tactical, step-by-step business strategy without the personal development angle might prefer her separate, nine-episode secret series on building a membership business.
