About the host: Mirav Ozeri has always been drawn to storytelling and journalism, especially the stories of everyday people.

In the 90’s She founded her own video production company, producing, directing, and editing documentaries and videos for political organizations which led to a 17-year career at CBS News, where she served as a producer/editor, helped launch CBS MarketWatch, and later worked as a senior editor and segment producer until the program was acquired by Dow Jones.

During her years at CBS, Mirav developed and produced a television pilot built around a simple idea: giving people an honest look at what different careers are really like. Although the pilot was never picked up, the concept stayed with her. Years later, she brought it back as How Much Can I Make?, a podcast that explores real jobs, real stories, and the many paths people take to build a career.

We sit down with Tommy Giorlando, a professional hypnotist with 20 years of experience in stage hypnosis and hypnotherapy, to separate fact from fiction. He explains what hypnosis is, why it works, how it differs from the dramatic version we see in movies, and what is actually happening when someone enters a hypnotic state.

We also talk about hypnotherapy as a career and business, including safety, client work, earning potential, and how hypnosis is used to help people change automatic patterns without medication or traditional talk therapy.

Tommy shares how hypnosis can be used for chronic pain, anxiety, smoking cessation, behavior change, confidence, performance psychology, and flow state, including techniques similar to those used by elite athletes.

If you’re curious about becoming a hypnotist or hypnotherapist, how much hypnotherapists make, what hypnosis can help with, or whether hypnosis really works, this episode offers a practical look at the science, the business, and the real-world applications of hypnosis.

We sit down with Tom Ostoyich, a career bartender who has worked since the late 1990s across New York City, New Orleans, and the Hudson Valley, to pull back the curtain on what bartending actually demands and what it can realistically pay.

Then we go to the parts that rarely make it into the glamorous version of nightlife: handling drunk or hostile guests, the legal risk of over serving, strict ID requirements, and the reality of watching for predatory behavior and possible drink tampering. But Tom also shares what's great about the job.

If you are exploring bartending jobs, service industry careers, or tip based work, this conversation is a grounded guide.

Heike also shares the unlikely story of how she landed her first voice-over job and turned it into a successful 30-year voice-over career.

We break down voice-over pay and earnings, including what beginners can charge, how commercial usage fees can reach thousands of dollars, and how auditions, agents, online casting platforms, and remote home studios have changed the business.

And then there’s AI. Heike explains how AI voice cloning and synthetic voices are already affecting professional voice actors, why contracts and voice rights matter, and where she believes the industry is headed.

If you’re wondering how to become a voice actor, how much voice-over artists make, what equipment you need to start, or whether voice-over is still a viable career in the age of AI, this conversation gives you a firsthand look at the money, skills, opportunities, and realities behind the microphone.

About the host: Mirav Ozeri has always been drawn to storytelling and journalism, especially the stories of everyday people.

In the 90’s She founded her own video production company, producing, directing, and editing documentaries and videos for political organizations which led to a 17-year career at CBS News, where she served as a producer/editor, helped launch CBS MarketWatch, and later worked as a senior editor and segment producer until the program was acquired by Dow Jones.

During her years at CBS, Mirav developed and produced a television pilot built around a simple idea: giving people an honest look at what different careers are really like. Although the pilot was never picked up, the concept stayed with her. Years later, she brought it back as How Much Can I Make?, a podcast that explores real jobs, real stories, and the many paths people take to build a career.

Heike explains what the job really involves, from reading scripts with precise time codes to dubbing, lip-syncing, commercials, cartoons, museum audio tours, corporate narration, and medical voice-over work.

We break down how to tell if a business can franchise, what fees and royalties actually look like, and what makes franchise systems succeed or fall apart over time.
• franchising as a growth and distribution method rather than a business type
• why “passive income” still requires training, support, and real operational work
• three franchisability checkpoints: profitable prototype, teachable operations, national demand
• how master franchising can make international expansion easier to manage
• typical royalty rates, franchise fees, and how sales get tracked with modern tech
• protecting the brand through manuals, standards, and ongoing coaching
• common franchisor and franchisee mistakes including unrealistic expectations
• exit paths for franchisees including selling the unit, renewals, and early termination risks
• why the best franchisors stay franchisee-first and what changes under investor ownership
• where franchise leads come from: internet marketing, referrals, and franchise brokers

What does it actually take to make a living as a sculptor? In this episode, we sit down with sculptor Alex Kveton and Barbara to trace a career that began with escaping communist Czechoslovakia and grew into a thriving fine art business - with stainless steel sculptures placed in prestigious institutions including MoMA and the Jimmy Carter Presidential Library, and represented by galleries across the United States.

We go beyond the highlight reel. Alex breaks down the unglamorous realities of building a sustainable creative career: navigating gallery commissions, pricing original sculpture, handling competition in the fine art market, and why there is no single "big break" - only consistent, strategic effort over time.

If you're an artist wondering how to sell sculpture, get gallery representation, price your work, or turn a creative practice into a real livelihood, this episode is a grounded, experience-backed roadmap.

About the host: Mirav Ozeri has always been drawn to storytelling and journalism, especially the stories of everyday people.

In the 90’s She founded her own video production company, producing, directing, and editing documentaries and videos for political organizations which led to a 17-year career at CBS News, where she served as a producer/editor, helped launch CBS MarketWatch, and later worked as a senior editor and segment producer until the program was acquired by Dow Jones.

During her years at CBS, Mirav developed and produced a television pilot built around a simple idea: giving people an honest look at what different careers are really like. Although the pilot was never picked up, the concept stayed with her. Years later, she brought it back as How Much Can I Make?, a podcast that explores real jobs, real stories, and the many paths people take to build a career.

Jim shares how he built a 100-station radio footprint without traditional syndication, using the distribution as leverage to grow credibility, speaking opportunities, and book sales. We also get candid about business naming, trademarks, and mistakes that quietly kill startups.

We start with introductions and move to jobs - which ones are changing first, which skills matter next, and why creativity alone isn’t AI-proof. Then we discuss AGI—what it is, why it matters, and why even AGI engineers describe it as dangerous. 

The conversation ends in the most human territory of all: AI companions, emotional attachment, and loneliness.

About the host: Mirav Ozeri has always been drawn to storytelling and journalism, especially the stories of everyday people.

In the 90’s She founded her own video production company, producing, directing, and editing documentaries and videos for political organizations which led to a 17-year career at CBS News, where she served as a producer/editor, helped launch CBS MarketWatch, and later worked as a senior editor and segment producer until the program was acquired by Dow Jones.

During her years at CBS, Mirav developed and produced a television pilot built around a simple idea: giving people an honest look at what different careers are really like. Although the pilot was never picked up, the concept stayed with her. Years later, she brought it back as How Much Can I Make?, a podcast that explores real jobs, real stories, and the many paths people take to build a career.

You’ll hear why your Gmail is basically a goldmine for criminals, how SIM-swapping works (spoiler: it’s scarily easy), and why your Wi-Fi router might secretly be working against you.

If you’ve ever thought, “Eh, I should probably be safer online,” this is your wake-up call—delivered with laughs, eye-opening tips, and maybe a little career inspiration too.

About the host: Mirav Ozeri has always been drawn to storytelling and journalism, especially the stories of everyday people.

In the 90’s She founded her own video production company, producing, directing, and editing documentaries and videos for political organizations which led to a 17-year career at CBS News, where she served as a producer/editor, helped launch CBS MarketWatch, and later worked as a senior editor and segment producer until the program was acquired by Dow Jones.

During her years at CBS, Mirav developed and produced a television pilot built around a simple idea: giving people an honest look at what different careers are really like. Although the pilot was never picked up, the concept stayed with her. Years later, she brought it back as How Much Can I Make?, a podcast that explores real jobs, real stories, and the many paths people take to build a career.

About the host: Mirav Ozeri has always been drawn to storytelling and journalism, especially the stories of everyday people.

In the 90’s She founded her own video production company, producing, directing, and editing documentaries and videos for political organizations which led to a 17-year career at CBS News, where she served as a producer/editor, helped launch CBS MarketWatch, and later worked as a senior editor and segment producer until the program was acquired by Dow Jones.

During her years at CBS, Mirav developed and produced a television pilot built around a simple idea: giving people an honest look at what different careers are really like. Although the pilot was never picked up, the concept stayed with her. Years later, she brought it back as How Much Can I Make?, a podcast that explores real jobs, real stories, and the many paths people take to build a career.

About the host: Mirav Ozeri has always been drawn to storytelling and journalism, especially the stories of everyday people.

In the 90’s She founded her own video production company, producing, directing, and editing documentaries and videos for political organizations which led to a 17-year career at CBS News, where she served as a producer/editor, helped launch CBS MarketWatch, and later worked as a senior editor and segment producer until the program was acquired by Dow Jones.

During her years at CBS, Mirav developed and produced a television pilot built around a simple idea: giving people an honest look at what different careers are really like. Although the pilot was never picked up, the concept stayed with her. Years later, she brought it back as How Much Can I Make?, a podcast that explores real jobs, real stories, and the many paths people take to build a career.

Plumbing isn’t just about turning a wrench—it’s about critical thinking, system smarts, and sometimes squeezing into places you'd never expect. It’s tough, dirty, and hands-on work… and that's exactly why Mark loves it.

If you're looking for career insight into a field that’s always in demand (and not going AI anytime soon), tune in to hear Mark’s take on what it takes to thrive in the trades, build real client relationships, and run a successful service business from the ground up.

About the host: Mirav Ozeri has always been drawn to storytelling and journalism, especially the stories of everyday people.

In the 90’s She founded her own video production company, producing, directing, and editing documentaries and videos for political organizations which led to a 17-year career at CBS News, where she served as a producer/editor, helped launch CBS MarketWatch, and later worked as a senior editor and segment producer until the program was acquired by Dow Jones.

During her years at CBS, Mirav developed and produced a television pilot built around a simple idea: giving people an honest look at what different careers are really like. Although the pilot was never picked up, the concept stayed with her. Years later, she brought it back as How Much Can I Make?, a podcast that explores real jobs, real stories, and the many paths people take to build a career.
