Do you ever wonder why some people with modest incomes build substantial wealth while others earning six figures live paycheck to paycheck? The answer lies not in how much money you make, but in your relationship with money itself.Gino Barbaro, who built a $250 million real estate portfolio comprising over 2,000 multifamily units, reveals the hidden force governing your financial decisions: your "money bio." These are the childhood memories and messages about wealth that subconsciously drive your adult financial behaviors. As Gino shares, "Money doesn't corrupt, it reveals" - amplifying who you already are rather than fundamentally changing you.Through personal stories, Gino illustrates how his own limiting beliefs formed at age five when his grandmother couldn't afford to buy him toy soldiers, creating a scarcity mindset he carried for decades. This exploration of financial psychology goes beyond conventional advice, challenging listeners to examine their earliest money memories to uncover why they might overspend, undersave, or avoid financial responsibility altogether.The conversation takes fascinating turns through the history of currency, the psychology of spending for validation, and how societal messages about wealth create unhealthy relationships with money. Most powerfully, Gino introduces the concept of "happy money" - shifting your perspective from viewing expenses as drains to appreciating what they provide, from seeing bills as burdens to recognizing them as evidence of your ability to create comfort and security.Whether you're struggling with debt or managing investments, this episode provides a framework for understanding how your financial decisions are guided less by mathematics and more by emotional patterns established decades ago. By understanding your money bio, you can begin the journey from working hard for money to making money work hard for you.Ready to transform your relationship with money?

What if everything you've been told about healing after loss or trauma and the 5 stages of grief are wrong? Dr. B shares her incredible journey from devastating loss to becoming a beacon of hope for others. After losing three children and her husband over 20 years, this psychiatric nurse practitioner discovered why traditional approaches to grief often keep us stuck - and developed a revolutionary method that actually works. You'll discover why the famous "five stages of grief" are actually harmful, how trauma gets stored in our bodies and impacts our weight, energy, and relationships, and the specific steps you can take to transform your pain into purpose. Dr. B reveals her "Mentally Strong Method" and explains why grief and trauma are completely different - and why understanding this distinction changes everything. This isn't about "getting over" your pain or pretending everything is fine. It's about learning to separate grief (which is your badge of honor) from trauma (which keeps you stuck) so you can finally heal and thrive. If you've ever felt like your past is holding you back from the health, relationships, or life you want, this conversation will give you permission to heal - and show you exactly how to do it.   Catch the full episode on YOUTUBE HERE: https://bit.ly/MidlifeConversationsYouTube    Learn More About Dr. Cristi Bundukamara:   Instagram ➜ https://www.instagram.com/cristibundukamara    Free E Book  ➜  https://mentallystrong.ac-page.com/freebook Mentally Strong Method  ➜  https://mentallystrong.com/   Thank you to our show sponsors!

I'll talk about the importance of setting your own standards, establishing clear boundaries, and leading with authenticity.

Expect actionable tools, radical self-compassion, and bite-sized practices to help you reclaim your joy, health, and identity—no matter where you're starting from.   3 Must-Know Takeaways from This Episode   1. You Can Change—Even If You Don't “Feel Like It”   Real transformation doesn't require overhauling your life overnight. It starts with one small step—one promise at a time—even (and especially) on the days you want to give up.   2.

Please take our new listener survey - four simple questions that will help me make a better podcast for you! Safe Survey Link Let go: Overcoming Porn Addiction with Coach Frank In this episode, you'll hear: - Early exposure to pornography and its long-term effects - The role of identity transformation in recovery - Strategies for overcoming porn addiction - Advice for partners of those struggling with addiction Join Mathew Blades as he sits down with Coach Frank and Dr. Frank Bevacqua to explore the complex world of porn addiction. Coach Frank shares his personal journey through a 20-year addiction, highlighting how early exposure shaped his understanding of relationships. The discussion reveals how porn addiction often masks deeper emotional issues, serving as a coping mechanism rather than a mere sexual outlet. Coach Frank emphasizes the necessity of identity transformation in recovery, advocating for a fundamental shift in self-perception. Physical fitness emerges as a powerful tool in this process, aiding in building confidence and altering self-image. The conversation also offers practical advice for partners, stressing the importance of avoiding guilt and shame while engaging in mutual healing. Notable quotes include Coach Frank's insight: "I think sitting at the foundation and root of all success in recovery or the journey to freedom sits in identity change or identity transformation." Dr. Bavacqua adds, "Unfortunately, now there is the shared responsibility of how do I heal the parts of me that were hurt by this?"

Send us a textFeeling trapped by social media algorithms? Tired of the constant content creation hamster wheel? You're not alone. Today we're breaking free from the social media grind with three proven strategies to bring in quality clients consistently without relying on Instagram, TikTok, or Facebook.We start by tackling the gold standard of lead generation: referrals. Discover why referred leads convert better and how to build a referral system that works automatically. I share my exact approach for making it effortless for happy clients to send business your way, including templates, timing strategies, and incentive structures that create win-win situations. The key insight? People genuinely want to help, but they need clear direction and occasional reminders.Strategic partnerships emerge as our second powerful approach. Learn how to identify complementary businesses serving your same audience, create mutually beneficial relationships, and formalize arrangements that deliver consistent leads. I reveal why "owning a stage" – whether through a podcast, newsletter, or signature content series – creates natural partnership opportunities and how these collaborations expand your reach without advertising costs.The final strategy – and my personal favorite – focuses on niche communities where your ideal clients already gather. I explain my "big fish in a tiny pond" approach that generated the majority of my income last year (my highest-earning year in five years). You'll discover how keyword alerts save time, how consistent value builds trust, and why my "consensual sales" philosophy leads to stress-free client acquisition.Ready to build a more stable, algorithm-proof business?

Societal Division is deep. I call it Tribal Dynamics and it is seductive and can be tricky. Power over structures create a unconscious "us vs. them" dynamic.And if you dont match their expectations, then you end up being that black sheep person and it's painful, alienating, and confusing.For me, this pattern showed up early—starting as far back as grade school. Feeling singled out to carry the Tribe's tension and unconscious trauma that I felt so deeply. Being excluded because my moral value didnt match theirs and my psychic and intuitive sensory system was such a old soul, I felt like this tribal world was one I never felt I belonged to. Over time, I realized this isn't about me.CAN YOU RELATE? It's about the Tribe's way of managing stress and discomfort. Often, when leaders or so called authority don't have the tools to regulate their own anxiety or seek support, they unconsciously scapegoat someone to keep control. And here's the kicker: we all carry these broken Tribal or family field patterns around with us. They shape how we show up in communities, technology, governance, workplaces, and relationships.Deep within us, ancient archetypes influence our interactions - the wounded ones, the leaders, the outsiders, and the healers. These timeless patterns can either trap us in cycles of pain or liberate us to live more authentically.So, what's the way out?I developed a simple but powerful approach to healing these broken energetic and holographic stored memory fields. It starts by identifying the unconscious contracts we've made—agreements our essential selves made long ago to survive Tribal dynamics that felt unsafe or painful.Then, through a process of recognition, compassion, and conscious revoking, we can release those contracts. We give ourselves permission to belong, to be seen as whole and worthy — not as the scapegoat or outsider.It's transformative.I've guided myself and others through this journey. Slowly, the suspicion of the power over and power under state softens. The expectation of exclusion fades. And a sense of connection and true belonging grows.If you resonate with this, I invite you to explore this healing further with me.If you're looking for a personalized, real-time way to apply these healing principles and access your inner guidance whenever Tribal Dynamics feel overwhelming or confusing, The Light Between Oracle Journey is your intuitive mentor in your pocket.Designed to help you navigate social stress with clarity and calm, it supports you in making grounded decisions and reclaiming your personal agency — anytime you need it. More on that in a moment...We all carry an imprint of our broken fields with us wherever we go. When we have been battered by social trauma, it gets scary to go into groups, and our nervous system is impacted. We gaslight or flow into alternate states between being frozen and being in fight, /flight, and alarmed aloneness. We anticipate more social trauma. We carry a “broken group field” or a “broken family field” with us, which leaves an easy partnership slot open for the predator and prey dance to begin. What can we do with this pervasive pattern? The most effective way that I have found to disarm this dysfunctional ritual and silent contracts.We are not meant to stay wounded. We are supposed to move through our tragedies and challenges and to help each other move through the many painful episodes of our lives. By remaining stuck in the power of our wounds, we block our own transformation. We overlook the greater gifts inherent in our wounds — the strength to overcome them and the lessons that we are meant to receive through them. Wounds are the means through which we enter the hearts of other people. They are meant to teach us to become compassionate and wise.If you're ready to stop feeling isolated within Tribal Dynamics and start reclaiming your belonging with clarity and confidence, I invite you to experience The Light Between Oracle 5-Layer Journey.Each guiding light oracle blends ancient wisdom and modern neuroscience — giving you tools to tune into your internal GPS and confidently navigate even the most challenging social situations.The one guide I recommend is Empathica.

It's for next-era leaders who seek the deeper road — reclaiming their power and trust in their inner wisdom, no matter the chaos around them.Until next time, keep seeking the light between the noise and your deepest truth.If you've ever felt the sting of exclusion or the weight of broken Tribal Dynamics, know this: healing and belonging are possible.I'm often asked….“How does the oracle experience include neuroscience and hows it help us heal?”It's critical. In 22 years of working one on one intimately with clients, I know first hand that if we are not seen, heard and loved without judgement - growth is almost impossible.Holographic energy within the emotional body and neuroscience shares how any level of trauma creates self-blame, shame and isolation.Societal programming makes us think we are broken, that we have character flaws, when in actuality we make perfect sense, given the challenging experiences of aloneness, isolation, relational trauma and more that characterize most modern, capitalist power over structures.We are uniquely vulnerable to harm, but we are also uniquely available to hold each other and ourselves with warmth and resonance in ways that re-establish real, intimate relationships and engage our mind, body, heart, soul and energetic capacity for healing.In upcoming content, I'll share practical tools and insights to help you recognize these patterns in your life and begin the journey toward integration and inner peace.Stay tuned. You're not alone on this path.Sending you warmth and trust and divine love.

In this groundbreaking episode of Transform Your Life, Teresa and Tonya sit down with licensed clinical psychologist and best-selling author Dr. Sherrie Campbell to explore the connection between childhood trauma, narcissistic parents, and disordered eating. Together, they unpack the emotional wounds that many women carry into adulthood—and how those wounds manifest through food addiction, body image struggles, and toxic loyalty to family systems that never truly served them.Dr. Sherrie shares her personal experience with anorexia, food noise, and what she calls the “emotional math” so many people use to justify shame and self-sabotage. Teresa and Tonya reflect on their own weight loss journeys, revealing the guilt, grief, and backlash they faced when choosing to heal—especially when that healing meant creating boundaries or cutting ties with family members.This isn't just a conversation about food or fat—it's a radical, soul-deep discussion about reclaiming your life, your voice, and your body.

I talk about the subconscious running most of your day, how to train it with intention, and why truth and repetition are the real tools of impact. I explain why manifestation isn't magic. It's the process of materializing what already exists by tuning your awareness to the right frequency. From building a foundation of learning to capturing those “aha” moments as they happen, this episode covers how to raise your thinking, shorten resistance, and access the cheat codes that turn challenges into opportunities.

David, a husband, father of four, and former corporate leader, has dedicated his life to helping high-performing men and entrepreneurs break through self-sabotage and lead with courage, clarity, and purpose.Throughout our discussion, we touched on the critical idea that many people struggle with self-love because they often prioritize the needs of others over their own. David emphasized that true self-love is not selfish; rather, it is essential for being able to give love to others. He encouraged listeners to treat themselves with the same compassion they would offer to a loved one, highlighting the importance of understanding and forgiving oneself for past mistakes.IN THIS EPISODE:- (10:25) The Turning Point- (20:23) The Importance of Loving Yourself- (30:03) Behavior Follows Identity- (33:05) Moving in with a New Partner- (39:05) Manifestation vs. Identity- (45:45) Breaking Free from IllusionsRESOURCESCheck out my How to Attract Devoted Masculine Men Masterclass HERE My FREE eBook The Magnetic WomanApp rec: BumbleFeminine Embodiment HERECONNECT WITH CHARLENE On Instagram @mscharlenebyars On YouTube @chosentrainingWork with me HERECONNECT WITH DAVIDOn Instagram HEREHis Links HERE

From a young age, many of us were exposed to messages linking financial success with personal value. Advertisements, media, and even family conversations equate wealth with achievement and social status. Not surprisingly, this constant reinforcement creates strong associations between money and self-worth. Although our culture tends to regard money (and fancy job titles, for that matter) as symbols of success, my guest todays argues that money is nothing more than a tool. And if money is just a tool, it certainly doesn't have the power to say much about who we are as people: How worthy we are. How good we are. How important we are. On today's show: A conversation with podcaster Shari Rash about untangling your self-worth from your net worth, for good. Here's a preview: [7:30] Money is just a tool to help you feel the way you want to feel [11:00] Money conservations might be awkward, but they're essential in bringing to light your unconscious beliefs about finances [15:00] Exactly how our culture ties money to identity—and why that's so damaging [21:00] Rewiring the way you see yourself in relation to money Resources mentioned: Breaking Free from the Consumption Hamster Wheel: How Minimalism Can Transform Your Money Mindset (Part 2 of my conversation with Shari) This show is listener-supported. Thank you for supporting!

What if the key to financial freedom isn't earning more money, but buying less stuff? In this eye-opening conversation, which is part two of a two-part episode, Stephanie Seferian, host of Sustainable Minimalists podcast, reveals how our culture has trained us to work harder just to afford things we don't actually need. Be sure to check out part one of our conversation on Stephanie's podcast Sustainable Minimalists.  From targeted algorithms that prey on our insecurities to the myth that "new is always better," Stephanie breaks down the psychology behind overconsumption and shares her incremental approach to minimalism that doesn't require dramatic lifestyle changes. We explore how minimalism isn't about deprivation—it's about intentional curation and remembering that stuff exists to serve us, not the other way around. Whether you're drowning in clutter, struggling with the mental load of managing endless possessions, or just tired of working to pay for things that don't add real value to your life, this episode offers practical strategies to break free from the consumption cycle and use your money more intentionally. You'll walk away learning: Why we've been trained to buy new (and why secondhand is actually better) The connection between mental load and physical clutter How to put barriers back up to mindless purchasing The difference between needs and manufactured desires Practical strategies for breaking the buy-declutter-repeat cycle Learn more about Stephanie by visiting her website mamaminimalist.com Keep up with Everyone's Talkin' Money on instagram @everyonestalkinmoney  Learn more about your ad choices.

In this conversation, Jim and Glenn Yaney discuss the journey to financial independence through real estate and the Infinite Banking Concept. Glenn shares how he moved beyond conventional financial advice, took control of his capital, and built sustainable wealth with cash-flowing assets. His story is a direct challenge to the status quo—and a blueprint for ownership. 3 Key Takeaways: Traditional advice doesn't build freedom: Years of 401(k) contributions left Glenn with illiquid assets. It was business and real estate ownership that created true independence. The cost of inaction is control: Glenn used tax strategies to move capital out of retirement accounts and into mobile home parks and apartments—multiplying income and gaining access. Proximity is leverage: By surrounding himself with people who were already financially free, Glenn accelerated his learning and took confident action toward breaking away from his W-2. Glenn Yaney didn't wait—he took control, broke from the herd, and built real freedom through ownership and cash flow. If you're still following the conventional path, ask yourself: is it really working? It's time to think different. It's time to own your future.

In this revealing conversation, freelance journalist and former coach Linda Flanagan describes how youth sports have transformed from neighborhood fun into a $30 billion industry that's reshaping American families. Drawing from her book "Take Back the Game: How Money and Mania Are Ruining Kids' Sports and Why It Matters," Flanagan explores the cultural shifts since the 1970s that have turned children's athletics into high-stakes enterprises demanding extraordinary parental sacrifice.The Parental Pressure Paradox* Parents now spend an average of 202 minutes (over 3 hours) daily on their children's athletics* 36% of families reduce family vacations and struggle to save money due to sports expensesThe College Myth * Only 6-7% of high school athletes go on to play in college, and just 2% of these receive any athletic scholarship money.Red Flags to Watch For in Youth Sports* Family life revolving entirely around one child's sports schedule* Siblings feeling resentful or left behind* Parents' emotional wellbeing tied to their child's athletic performance* Pressure to specialize in one sport before adolescence* Sacrificing family relationships, activities, friendships, and personal interestsFlanagan's controversial but liberating advice: "Flee the bleachers at the middle school gym, skip the tournament at school across town, resuscitate your own interests and relationships instead."This isn't about not caring for your children—it's about showing them that:* Their activities belong to them, not you* Adult life has purpose and joy beyond child-serving* Independence and resilience are valuable life skills* Your wellbeing matters tooThe Bottom LineYouth sports can be wonderful for children when kept in proper perspective. The key is resisting cultural pressures that turn childhood athletics into family-consuming enterprises. By maintaining balance, protecting family relationships, and modeling fulfilling adult lives, parents can help their children enjoy sports without sacrificing everything else that makes life meaningful.Website: lindaflanaganauthor.comResources Mentioned* "Take Back the Game" by Linda Flanagan* Aspen Institute Sports and Society Program research* Beyond Stigma Documentary on Women in Collegiate SportsThanks for listening to The Reflective Mind Podcast and reading A Mind of Her Own!
