About
Each week, our hosts, Corinne Foxx and Natalie McMillan, cheers to the uncertainty of adulthood. And by “cheers,” they are being quite literal. A glass of wine (or two) makes this life “how to” podcast feel more like casual, after-work drinks with your best friend than a lengthy lecture. Budding business owners and best friends, Corinne and Natalie know first hand how hard it is to navigate life’s biggest milestones, from completing your first tax return to buying your first home. They often find themselves calling each other for advice, frequently asking, “Am I Doing This Right?” And thus a sisterhood of common confusion has been born. Am I Doing This Right? is not a your typical “how to” podcast. Why? Well, Corinne and Natalie aren’t experts - in fact, they’re far from it. They’re just two best friends with 26 years of life experience, and a whole lot of questions about today’s rapidly changing world. For example, How do I start my own business? Should I buy or lease my car? How do we survive student debt? What’s the best Hinge profile strategy? How do I balance work life and my personal life? Do I really need a 401k? The goal isn’t to provide all the answers, but to bring comfort to our audience knowing they aren’t the only ones asking the same questions. This evergreen podcast will act as a guide book for young people on how to kickstart their adulthood. This “learning along the way” approach makes this podcast less of a Ted Talk and more of a happy hour. For more life advice, follow us on Instagram: @amidoingthisrightpod Have a life question?

It's UNemployment, Not FUN-employment

This week, our hosts explore the confusing process of filing for unemployment. From eligibility to receiving your benefits, Corinne and Natalie break down everything you should know about unemployment insurance, all while enjoying a glass of red wine.Our Hosts:Corinne Foxx - @corinnefoxxNatalie McMillan - @nataliemcmWhat we're drinking: 2016 DeLille Roofline Red BlendINTROCorinne discusses her reservations about living alone, while Natalie hypes her up.

During this year, the United States has experienced the highest unemployment rate in recent history. Before this year, the highest number of unemployment filings was 696,000 during the week of October 2, 1982. During the last week of March 2020, we reached a new high at 6.6 million.&nbsp;What Is Unemployment Insurance?Unemployment Insurance - Started in 1935, unemployment insurance temporarily replaces a portion of wages for workers who have been laid off, as long as they’re looking and available for work.What are my benefits and how long do they last? - Benefits vary state by state, BUT normally it provides 26 weeks of benefits to unemployed workers and, on average, replaces half of the worker’s previous wages.What was the CARES Act? Because more people lose jobs during economic downturns, there is room for economic stimulus’ to these programs based on the severity of the recession. I.E. coronavirus or the CARES ACT $2 trillion stimulus package&nbsp;What is unemployment insurance vs. unemployment? Despite confusion, unemployment insurance and unemployment benefits are the same thing.Where Does Unemployment Money Come From?The U.S Department of Labor’s Unemployment Insurance program is funded through taxes paid by state and federal government. This is often-discussed payroll taxes all employers pay.The rate is 6% of the first $7,000 of each employee’s wages. This rate is called FUTA ( Federal Unemployment Tax Act).There are only three states that ask employees to contribute to unemployment insurance: New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Arkansas&nbsp;Federal vs. State Contributions - Unemployment is a “joint” compensation program between the federal and state governments..&nbsp;US department of labor oversees the system, but overall it is mandated state by state and is run according to state laws. For example, each state gives a different amount of unemployment benefits. States also have a ton of flexibility in determining what benefits they can/will offer.Replacement Rates - Hawaii’s UI average replacement rate of 55 percent was the highest, while D.C.’s average replacement rate of 21 percent was the lowest. Replacement rate is the amount of your wages lost that is being replaced by unemployment insurance, example is if your weekly wages were $1,000, and you lived in Hawaii, you would be covered for $550 a week.We recommend knowing your states benefits and replacement rates, individually.

Hu$tling Your Hobby: From Novice To Artisan

How do you take a passion project and turn it into a profitable side hustle? This week, we discuss the journey from novice to artisan. We'll give you actionable first steps that you can take towards growing your side hustle. This episode comes paired with a glass of Sauvignon Blanc.&nbsp;Our Hosts:Corinne Foxx - @corinnefoxxNatalie McMillan - @nataliemcmWhat We're Drinking: Freemark Abbey Sauvignon Blanc 2018INTROWhile enjoying their Sauvignon Blanc, Corinne and Natalie discuss how they spent their weekends. Corinne talks about her recent 12-hour road trip to the Redwoods. Natalie recaps her recent experience using a wax pot, her failed attempts at self-tanning, and how she gave herself a hickey.Lastly, Natalie talks about her recent dating profile song choice: Who Let The Dogs Out vs. Aaron’s Party.&nbsp;TOPIC A lot of people are experimenting with crafts and trying new hobbies right now. From tie dying shirts to beaded bracelets to homemade candles, it seems as though many novices are turning into artisans. We want to help budding small businesses take the first steps towards creating a solid side hustle.&nbsp;STEP #1 CLEAR INTENTIONSThe first and most important step towards hustling your hobby is having a clear&nbsp;intention. You need to pinpoint exactly what your side hustle will be and be specific about it. If you’re a blogger, what will you blog about? If you’re&nbsp;selling a product, what is the product? Do you need a name? Or will you sell&nbsp;under your name?The other side of clear intentions is about being realistic with yourself: How&nbsp;many hours a week do you want to dedicate to it? How will you balance your&nbsp;real job and your side hustle? What are your goals for the side hustle?Specificity and expectations are the building blocks of clear intentions.STEP #2 RESEARCH YOUR CRAFT &amp; SPACERESEARCHING YOUR CRAFTIf you’re going to do something, do it well. For example, if you want to make&nbsp;candles, research how to actually make them.&nbsp;You should research how to do&nbsp;your craft, how to do it cost-efficiently and how to do it consciously. Before&nbsp;you can call yourself an artisan, you need to research your craft and its space.&nbsp;RESEARCHING YOUR&nbsp;SPACEYou should research your competitors, people that you admire in your space, what your craft's market landscape looks like, etc. You should be aware if people are making similar products to you. Then, you can decide how you will make you and your craft stand out.RESEARCHING YOUR MATERIALSThis step is often overlooked. You need to research what materials and supplies you'll need to create your craft. If you want to start a YouTube channel, you'll need things like a camera and lights. If you want to tie dye t-shirts, you'll need to account for the costs of the dyes and shirts.Natalie discusses the surprisingly high costs of shipping. This is something that you should take into consideration, before you begin to market your craft.Corinne discusses how she was blindsided by the high costs of creating a website. She talks about how you should be prepared for the price of hiring a graphic designer, if you choose.RESEARCHING TECHNIQUESA great resource for researching

What The Actual F*ck Is Credit?!

This week, we tackle one of the most important building blocks of adulthood: having good credit.&nbsp;But first and foremost, what the hell even is credit? Our hosts examine the ins and outs of establishing good credit, while enjoying an Oregon-coast Pinot Noir.&nbsp;Our hosts:Corinne Foxx - @corinnefoxxNatalie McMillan - @nataliemcmWhat were drinking this episode: Drouhin Oregon Roserock 2016 Pinot NoirIntro -Corinne and Natalie catch up and discuss what they've been watching lately. Corinne reveals that she's been re-watching Twilight. They each reveal if they're Team Edward or Team Jacob.In the episode, Natalie references Robert Pattinson's GQ Interview and its hilarity.Topic -Why we're passionate about understanding credit: It's a modern day resume to get things that you want and need. Especially during this time, people are relying on credit more than ever. Also, credit is something that affects everyone regardless of socio-economic status.Definitions - CREDIT - The ability of a customer to obtain goods or services before payment, based on the trust that payment will be made in the future.CREDIT SCORE - Your financial health is often expressed by one number: your credit score. It’s a number between 300-850 that depicts your&nbsp;creditworthiness. The higher the number, the more attractive you are as a borrower.&nbsp;HOW IT’S USED: getting an apartment, a car, “big ticket items”, nowadays they run credit when you get a job ( this shows your trustworthiness)Benefits to having good credit: Your credit score can be used to lower your auto loan percentage. Also, your mortgage loan percentage is based on credit score. Nowadays, it can affect getting the job that you want. A good credit score can help get you better credit cards, which can lead to accruing points with additional benefits (like travel).Managing Credit -Five Ways To Build Your Credit Score:&nbsp;1. A credit card (secured card, store card, bank card)2. Auto loans (buy or lease)3. Multiple lines of credit4. Credit utilization rate5. Paying off your credit card (be aware of interest, can pay minimum if funds aren’t available, set up automatic payments, use extra cash to pay off cards, creditors are reporting every month to bureaus how much you’re paying off of your card)Five Common Mistakes People Make:1. Paying late (sometimes a day or one week is okay, but the biggest mistake is 30 days late, you’ll take a huge hit and you’ll have to wait 7 years for the missed payment to be removed)2. Only paying the minimum, when you can pay more3. Utilizing too much credit (credit limit $1000, you’re always at $950)4. Not paying medical bills will go on your credit5.
