With President Trump back in office, how will his policies shape the economy, housing market, and inflation in 2025 and beyond? In this episode, we dive into Trump's executive order on housing and unpack the key economic proposals, including tariffs, domestic energy production, immigration policy, and building restrictions. Are tariffs inflationary? Could increased oil drilling really lower energy costs? And what impact would mass deportations have on housing affordability and construction labor? We'll also discuss how Trump's plans to cut regulatory red tape could transform the housing market. Tune in as we analyze what this all means for investors and the Federal Reserve's next moves.

Guest - Tom Amenta Headline - Presidential Race Appears Frozen - Literally No Change 1) Barreling toward a rematch 65% of Americans do not want 1A) Trump leads Biden among Young and Hispanic voters and is making up ground with Black voters 1B) Biden poll numbers look worse than Jimmy Carter at the same point in time with him holding an approval rating of 40%. 1C) Trump leads by 30 in Iowa and 20 in New Hampshire 2) Why is this happening?

First, they run through updates on the US and Iran's frozen assets-for-prisoners swap, Canada's almost-accusation of India's assassination of a Canadian on Canadian soil, the GOP's DOA spending plan, Rudy Giuliani's newest lawsuit, and the IRS continuing their progressive reforms, before parsing through the UAW's ongoing labor action, and the levels of support they're getting from Donald Trump and Joe Biden. Next, Sam and Emma dive into the impending GOP-led government shutdown, tackling the fiasco of their internal negotiations, and why their approach to IRS reform would be a net expenditure for the US, before expanding on the specifics of Biden's renovations of the IRS that the right-wing hates so much.

Jane writes “I am a 29 year old mother from eastern Kentucky, and I had an incredibly strange encounter while deer hunting with our oldest daughter last year. I am skeptical about telling this experience, just because I am skeptical myself, but here goes nothin'…. Last year I had promised our oldest daughter, who was 6 at the time, that I would take her deer hunting on our property opening day of modern gun season. My husband and father I own around 40 acres on the Montgomery/ Menifee line, the entirety of which is almost completely wooded, and goes all the way to the top of Turkey Knob, which then backs up to hundreds of acres of uninhabited forest. We woke up that morning and we're running a little behind because I had to feed our baby, and make sure our little boy and husband were set for breakfast. Once we headed into the woods the sky was starting to get lighter and I made to decision to find a good spot to sit on the ground because by the time we made it to our stand it would have already been daylight. Ended up at a tree that backed up to the top of Turkey knob, and we could see over the ravine into the ridge line where a big game trail was. We sat there for prob 30 mins or so and my little girl fell asleep in my lap, I was watching some gray squirrels play on a log down the hill in front of us when I heard a baby cry. The squirrels ran off and everything got really quiet. I thought maybe I was just hearing things, (our baby was only 4 months old at the time and I was still breastfeeding) but then I heard it again and again. I felt really disoriented, like I couldn't figure out where the cry was coming from. While I was trying to figure out where the cry was coming from, I heard something BARRELING down the side of the mountain behind me. We have horses and it was every bit as loud as a horse would be galloping full force through the woods. My little girl was still asleep in my lap so I couldn't jump up without waking her up and her making noise so I just sat as still as possible and grabbed my knife on my side (my rifle was leaned up against the tree). Out the side of my eye I saw something huge with long black hair coming down the ledge right behind me to the left of my tree. I thought it was a bear spooked from all the gunshots until I saw it's face out the side of my eye. It was no bear. It was looking behind it, and when it looked forward it was like it was surprised that it saw me there, furrowed it's brow, grunted and acted like it was going to charge me, but then, and I truly believe this, either saw I was a woman, or was holding a sleeping child, and it's expression immediately softened and hunkered down, held both its huge hands out like to say “it's ok, it's ok” slowly backed away about three steps and turned And bounded back up the cliff completely out sight. I was fully prepared to fight that thing to the death to protect my girl, but thankfully it didn't come to that. Wasn't even that worried waking her up and walking back out of the woods. Felt like an unspoken thing between mothers to be honest. I have no idea what I saw, but I am almost certain she was female. When she stood all the way up she was probably six foot tall or so. She had a gray skin on her hands and face, human eyes. The whole thing had me dazed and confused. I haven't told anyone this for fear of sounding like an absolute crack job. There's been multiple odd things happen on this property prior to this, and a weird occurrence that has happened since then. I'd be happy to tell the whole story.”
The Atlanta Braves rode a record June to the best record in Major League Baseball, clubbing teams into submission with an offense that is firing on all cylinders. Grant McAuley hits all the headlines and stories from the week that was for the Atlanta Braves and breaks down the incredible numbers behind a June Boom that leaves even members of the Braves searching for ways to put it into perspective. Meanwhile, Ronald Acuña Jr. continues to put up numbers the likes of which we've never seen before. Hear about his latest accomplishments and the red-hot offense that is taking the NL East by storm after a sweep of the second place Miami Marlins and yet another long winning streak. The Braves are sending an MLB-best eight All-Stars to Seattle, including a handful of first-timers that are being rewarded for their contributions in the first half of the season. You'll also hear from Michael Soroka, who returned from Triple-A and took the mound at Truist Park for the first time since August 3, 2020, earning a win over the Marlins this week. While everything is coming up Braves lately, the New York Mets are a team heading in the wrong direction. Casey Stern joins the show to discuss what the Mets and impetuous owner Steve Cohen may be looking to do in order to reverse the club's fortunes and/or get them back on track in 2024 and beyond.

Resilience is a topic I've wanted to explore for a long time on the podcast. After all, how can we continue to work on ourselves if our progress is always getting cut short? So in this week's episode, we're going to explore 6 tips for becoming more resilient in your life. When I started doing the research for today's episode on how to handle sliding back when you've made some progress, something about my search terms brought up a bunch of articles on how to handle sliding while driving on icy roads. I was going to pass these over but then I got a little distracted and a little curious about what the pros have to say about this. Living in New England, knowing how to handle driving on icy roads is a requirement so I thought I should brush up on my knowledge. And, as I read through the article, I realized that all of the tips they suggested applied quite well to sliding back when making progress! So, today's episode is a two-fer! It will teach you about managing both sliding while driving on icy roads and sliding back after making good progress. Once again, Focus Forward to the rescue!

Okay, let's get going.When I started doing the research for today's episode on how to handle sliding back when you've made some progress, something about my search terms brought up a bunch of articles on how to handle sliding while driving on icy roads. I was going to pass these over but then I got a little distracted and a little curious about what the pros have to say about this. Living in the NE, knowing how to handle driving on icy roads is a requirement so I thought I should brush up on my knowledge. And, as I read through the article, I realized that all of the tips they suggested applied quite well to sliding back when making progress! So, today's episode is a two-fer! It will teach you about managing both sliding while driving on icy roads and sliding back after making good progress. Once again, Focus Forward to the rescue! The article I'll refer to throughout the episode is aptly called “What Do You Do If Your Car is Sliding on Ice?” and it was written by someone at Scott's Automotive and Service Centers, Inc with locations throughout Colorado and Arizona. You can find a link to it in the show notes if you want more information or want to read their other well-written and informative articles. Before I dive into the article, I wanted to share some science-y stuff about executive function and resilience, because resilience is basically what I'm exploring today - managing the challenge of sliding back after having made some progress. We need to be resilient to get back on the horse, if you will. Research has shown that there is a direct connection between resilience and executive function skills. It appears that when your executive functioning is strong, your sense of self-efficacy is strengthened, as well. Self-efficacy, as we have talked about before in a couple of other episodes, is the belief that you have the ability to motivate yourself, accomplish tasks, and make decisions.Studies have also shown that adolescents have a better time adjusting to school when they have stronger executive functioning and are more resilient. As a coach, I see this all the time in my college clients. After I've worked with them for a while and they've created some systems that work really well to support their EF skills, I see them being more resilient. They head into difficult times during the school year with more confidence and they come through it having had a better experience. If you'd like to do some reading on resilience and executive function, check out the show notes because I stuck some articles in there that you might find interesting. So, here's another reason to work on building your executive function skills, especially as teenagers and young adults. Okay, so back to icy driving conditions. Scott's Automotive shared six tips for icy driving success in the article. I'll review them all and tie them to some executive functioning strategies that can help us when we feel like we're taking two steps forward and one step back, which by the way, is very normal, just like ice.Tip #1No Brakes!The article reads, “Your first impulse when you feel yourself slipping out of control–literally–is to apply your brakes and stop the vehicle.” You're not supposed to do that, even though you really want to, as it will make your slide worse. This can apply when we feel like we're sliding back or not making progress on our goals. It can be tempting to give up, to put on the brakes and say, “well, apparently I'm just bad at doing this new habit” and decide that we're not qualified to even try to make this positive change. To me, this black and white kind of thinking is a great way to interrupt any progress you were making and make your slide even worse. Practicing dialectical thinking in this situation is a good thing to try. Dialectical thinking allows us to hold two opposing thoughts in our heads at one time and recognize and accept that both can be true. “I overslept again! I should just give up on being a morning person” becomes, “It feels like I'm not making any progress on getting up earlier because I overslept again and I'm willing to keep trying”. This can help us be less rigid in our thinking and allow us to continue to look for alternative tools and strategies to help us reach our goals. Remember that cognitive flexibility from episode 21? Dialectical thinking is a great way to use those cognitive flexibility skills you have been working on developing.Okay, on to Tip #2Turn into the slideThis part of managing icy driving has always boggled my mind, but they're right! The article agrees and says, “This goes against your instincts, but to help when you are sliding, you actually want to turn in the direction of the slide.” When I saw this, it really resonated with me and it kind of goes along with the previous tip. When we're sliding back, changing our viewpoint from seeing it as a failure to seeing it as an opportunity to learn, can make a huge difference. Really lean into it, turn into that perceived “failure”. Embrace it as an opportunity to learn, an opportunity to find something that works better than what we've already been trying. Or, maybe it will just help us find the patience to accept ourselves, even when we're not making the progress we wish we were, with grace and love and compassion. The last lines of this section of the article are just so perfect for this: “Gently maneuver the wheel. Correcting your slide in one direction, will result in the car returning back in the opposite direction before it, ultimately, stabilizes. Expect this rocking back and forth motion and respond with care.” Let's do the same with ourselves and respond with care.Okay, next up, Tip #3Avoid oversteeringAgain, the article comes through with a tip that so perfectly applies to learning how to manage it when we slide back when making progress. It reads, “If you oversteer, you can put the car in a full spin.” I see oversteering as completely overhauling our systems when we feel like we're failing, sliding back, or not making the progress we want to see. There's actually no need to oversteer. Take some time to reflect on the progress you HAVE made and see what tools or strategies DO work for you. See how you can modify those, if needed. Make small, incremental changes instead of major ones. Work at slowly changing your thinking about your progress. I bet you there are wins in there that you're just not seeing. There's no need to throw away that planner if you miss a meeting or give up running just because you missed a couple runs in your 5k training plan. Look at your planner - what did work? How many meetings did you not miss? What strategies can you use to make your planner work better for you? Look at your 5k training plan - what days and times seem to be the easiest for you to go running? What can you do to prevent injury? Are you drinking enough water? When we feel like we're sliding, pausing and taking some time to think, reflect, troubleshoot, and find small wins you might be overlooking is much more effective than overhauling your whole system or oversteering your car.Okay, now for Tip #4Stay calmOh, Scott's Automotive and Service Centers, you know the key to my heart and to our thinking brains. Emotional regulation! The article states, “Staying calm is key. Panic will cause you to oversteer and can result in a more serious slide, spin or accident.” If you have listened to this podcast for a while, you'll have heard me say a million times that we can only fully access our executive function skills when we are calm. When we allow our emotions to take over, it's really, really difficult to think about what to do when we are challenged by something, when we find ourselves sliding back. Staying calm is the key to the resiliency we need to recover from these perceived setbacks. If you haven't yet discovered what strategies help regulate yourself when you're feeling overwhelmed, discouraged, frustrated, scared, or anxious, listen up! Sometimes it's as simple as taking some calming breaths. At BBS we coaches really love 5-finger breathing, where you trace your fingers up and down while breathing in and out. Another breathing strategy that lots of people find helpful is square breathing - you breathe in for four counts, hold for four counts, breathe out for four and then hold again for four and then repeat this cycle as long as you can. But you don't even have to get fancy like this - just taking some slow, controlled breaths can really make a difference. I've heard lots of people say that breathing is just not for them. I'd like to push back a little on that and say that breathing is actually for everyone - it's literally keeping you alive right now! Just give one of these breathing exercises a shot! You might be surprised at how helpful it can be.Practicing healthy, supportive self-talk is another tip for staying calm. When I'm out running and I'm struggling, I always tell myself “Hannah, you can do this”. If you listened to episode 1 about managing failure, you may remember me talking about this strategy. Speaking kindly to ourselves with supportive words during times of stress can really help regulate our emotions. So, whether you're sliding on ice or just sliding back from making progress, try motivating yourself with a little supportive self-talk.Mindfulness is another great strategy for managing our emotions. Learning how to pay attention to our bodies and how they're feeling, bringing our focus back to what we're doing, and noticing small things around us can all help with emotional regulation - and tricky winter driving! There are a ton of different approaches to mindfulness, including stopping to pay attention to something we normally just do without thinking or sitting for a 10-minute meditation session. However you approach mindfulness is up to you - research shows that it really and truly does positively impact our emotional regulation.In order for these strategies to be really effective when we need them, we have to practice them. If you listened to episode 26 with Dr. Alison Roy, you might remember me saying that I started practicing square breathing while I'm driving. Hopefully it'll come in handy this winter when I'm navigating some icy roads.Next up, Tip #5Prevent sliding by reducing your speedIf road conditions are poor, we should all be driving more slowly to begin with. The article explains ”If the roads are icy, or covered in snow, it is important to slow your vehicle. The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration advises that you reduce your speed by 1/3 on wet roads and by 1/2 (or more) on snow-packed roads.” This is such great advice for changing habits, too. The process of building or breaking habits is not easy or fast. There are no quick fixes. There's no magic wand. Barreling into trying to make change with the expectation that you'll somehow, miraculously become perfect instantly is unreasonable and is sure to set you up for disappointment. We are human, We are not perfect. Slow down, take small steps, give yourself some grace and some time. Look in the rearview mirror and see what's worked for you and what hasn't. Strive for excellence, not perfection. And last, and certainly not least, Tip #6Call for an Auto Check-upScott's Automotive says “Another way to stay safe during inclement weather conditions is to ensure that your car is prepared for the weather.” This is true for our minds and bodies, as well. When we are healthy and taken care of, it is easier to manage sliding back. Prioritizing self-care is critical. Just as you make sure your cars' tires have enough tread and your brakes are not worn out, we need to make sure that we are eating well, sleeping well, and moving our bodies. Going to the doctor regularly and making sure you're doing what you can to stay healthy is critical for success, especially when you're challenged by tricky stuff. It is much easier to access the executive function skills we need to be resilient when our bodies are happy. Part of this last tip involves asking for help. I don't know about you, but there's not much I understand about fixing cars, so I need to ask the mechanic for help. In fact, as I write this, our car is in the shop for new brakes. If you need help with your executive function skills, ask for it! It can be scary to say I need help, but giving ourselves permission to do that can lead to growth far beyond anything we ever thought possible. Asking for help does not mean you are weak, or ignorant, or anything like that. It actually means you are smart and confident. I have had so many clients say to me, “I was so afraid to admit I needed help” or “I was afraid to share my struggles” but as soon as they did, they felt a great weight off their shoulders and were able to start moving towards finding solutions to their challenges. And, let me tell you, as much as I'm preaching this right now, I, too, find it very difficult to ask for help. But, I take a deep breath and do it, because I'm worth it. Well, there you go! If you live in the north, you've had a refresh on how to handle sliding on ice and if you live in the south, you've had a chance to be glad you don't live where it snows. And hopefully you've all learned some tips for handling sliding back while working towards your goals. Before I go, I wanted to share some advice that some of my fellow coaches shared on this topic. Denise McMahon shared that she uses backslides as an opportunity to have her clients consider questions like:Am I facing any new or unforeseen barriers?Have I really slid backward or am I expecting myself to be perfect?Do I need to tweak my tools and strategies to gain some momentum again?Am I shaming myself or creating negative stories that are preventing me from taking the next step?What's one small thing I can say yes to?Can I introduce novelty to respark my interest?And, Tina Conte shared a great quote from author, Robert Brault:...taking a step backwardafter taking a step forward is not a disaster, it's a cha-cha.”And that's our show for today.

Today we're discussing the rules of rum with Karen Hoskin, founder of Montanya Distillers, which produces some of the best rum in the country — right here in Crested Butte, Colorado.If you're someone who hasn't been all that into rum, this conversation will shed light on why you might have felt that way; explain why Karen doesn't make Montanya's rum the way that a lot of mainstream rum is produced; and is a pretty amazing crash course in the history of rum, rum culture, the longstanding tradition of “mountain rum”, and more.As you'll hear, Karen not only has a lot of conviction about her own rules for rum making, but she has a number of deeply held principles that extend well beyond the craft of exceptional rum-making.TOPICS & TIMES:Turning Point: Dec 23, 1988 (3:25)Rum in the 2000's (8:55)Ways of Making Rum (13:28)Rum & Louisiana Sugar Cane (20:47)Laws for US Sugar Cane (29:42)Why Distill in Colorado?

Tavi Costa of Crescat Capital has put together a chart series that visualizes the economic slowdown clearly. And on the day we recorded this interview, Bloomberg Economics revealed its models now predict a 100% probability that a recession will hit within the next 12 months. So how bad will it get? What will the impact be on markets? And are there opportunities for investors to protect and possibly prudently grow their wealth as the recession unfolds? We'll get Tavi's answers to all of those questions. https://youtu.be/0AfoFnBpPkg

Here are three big Things you need to know right now— ONE— Vladimir Putin is once again threatening to use nuclear weapons against any country that interferes with his failing invasion of Ukraine—but I'm guessing we will just let him self destruct all on his own— TWO— I have said for a long time—Kevin McCarthy is a terrible choice to be speaker of the house—because he is nothing more than a re-tread of Paul Ryan—and nobody needs that—ever! It seems some big names now agree with what I've told you— THREE— And the open border policies of this administration are going to hurt us all as we are barreling toward a recession—and global downturn in economic activity—followed by an energy crisis—like we have never seen—and all because a guy that is completely incompetent was installed in The White House— And I will get to the border BUT first—the scandals are closing in on Joe Biden—and they are quite serious—in fact they are becoming quite the hot topic—

Today's slide deck: https://bit.ly/3DRPTpt - Today we look at the continued pressure on risk sentiment after the FOMC minutes show the Fed discussing a rapid pace of quantitative tightening that is set to phase in after the May 4 FOMC meeting and, together with US treasury net issuance, will mean an annual run rate of $2-2.5 trillion in liquidity tightening for financial markets. Financial conditions have been responding accordingly, a dangerous development for equity markets if the tightening continues apace. The US dollar has jumped back higher over the last couple of sessions against riskier currencies and the oil market may be responding to that as well as to demand reductions from Chinese lockdowns and an incoming flood of supply from further reserve releases.

The start of the holiday season is when people notice if they've been slacking in the rest department. Energy and positivity levels start to plummet if you haven't been making rest a priority. And you know what causes rest to fall to the wayside? Barreling through our days as we do all the things and wind up burnt out, overwhelmed, and exhausted on the other side. Today I'm sharing 3 books that helped me stop living frantically and actually rest well. Listen in to hear about the books that helped me be more intentional with my time and energy.
