Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Cary Carbonaro. A certified financial planner and author of Women and Wealth. 1. Guest Introduction: Cary Carbonaro Certified Financial Planner with 25+ years of experience. Leads a multimillion-dollar financial planning practice. Focuses on empowering women and increasing financial literacy. Promoting her second book: Women and Wealth. 2. Why Cary Wrote the Book To share her 25 years of experience working with women. To address the lack of female-friendly practices in the financial industry. Key stat: “By 2030, women will control two-thirds of the nation’s wealth—$30 trillion.” 4. Challenges in the Financial Industry Industry built by men, for men. Not ready for the shift in wealth ownership to women. Harvard Business Review (2009): “Financial services is the least sympathetic to women and has the most to gain if they get it right.” 5. Financial Planning Philosophy Everyone deserves a financial plan. Quote: “If you fail to plan, you plan to fail.” Financial planning includes: Risk management Cash flow Tax strategy Investments Retirement Estate planning 6. Making the Industry Female-Friendly Women often leave their financial advisors after a spouse dies (80% of the time). Reasons: lack of connection, poor communication, feeling ignored. Not a DEI issue, but a dollars and cents issue: “What other industry would ignore a $30 trillion opportunity?” 7. Stereotypes and Societal Expectations Women face pressure to look attractive in professional settings. Stereotypes persist in media and even in AI-generated images. Example: AI generated a man when asked for an image of a financial planner with long hair. 8. Cary’s Personal Journey Inspired by her father, a JPMorgan Chase executive. Grew up learning about money and finance. Built her business by focusing on women, not traditional male-dominated marketing. Quote: “Money equals power, and women need more of both.” 9. The Wealth Gap Beyond the wage gap, the wealth gap is driven by caregiving responsibilities. Termed the “good daughter/spouse penalty.” Lifetime cost to women: $1 million. 10. Call to Action Women should seek financial literacy and independence. Encourage planning before crisis hits. Quote: “Wealth gives you choices in life.”

Yet, from this adversity emerged a transformative story of resilience and redemption. Dr. Jaffe now stands as a guiding light for those grappling with addiction, demonstrating that recovery is a deeply personal journey. His candid reflections on childhood struggles with social anxiety and the turning points in his life illuminate the complex tapestry of experiences that fuel addiction.

In this episode of the Elk Hunt Podcast, host Cody Rich sits down with elk hunting expert Aaron to discuss the highs and lows of backpack hunting, animal behavior, and the importance of patience when hunting elk. With years of experience under their belts, Aaron shares his perspective on the intricacies of hunting elk in the backcountry and offers tips on how to approach new areas, how to call elk, and when to move to another spot if you're not seeing success. Whether you're a seasoned elk hunter or just starting, this episode provides actionable insights that will help you become a more effective hunter. Timestamp Chapters: 0:00 - Introduction & Sponsor Mentions 4:00 - Aaron's Background and Return to Elk Hunting 9:15 - The Appeal of Backpack Hunting and its Challenges 14:20 - Hunting Strategies: Patience vs. Overcalling 22:30 - How to Know When to Leave an Area 30:00 - Cold Calling vs. Mild Calling for Elk 39:00 - Scouting: When it's Necessary & When it's Not 46:00 - Backpack Hunting Decision: Stay or Go? 54:00 - Animal Behavior and Understanding Elk Patterns 1:02:00 - How to Adjust Your Approach as the Season Progresses 1:10:00 - Final Thoughts on Effective Elk Hunting Strategies Three Key Takeaways: Patience is Crucial: When calling elk, waiting and letting the situation unfold can often be more effective than constantly blowing calls. Getting too eager to call can ruin your chances and lead to poor results. Understanding Animal Behavior: Knowing elk habits—where they feed, rest, and move during the rut—will give you a significant advantage in finding elk and predicting their movements. Don't Overstay in a Spot: If you're not seeing elk or hearing calls, don't hesitate to move on. Fresh sign is key—don't waste your time in a spot that's not producing, and don't be afraid to backtrack if things aren't working.

Navigating the legal maze of child support and custody can feel impossible... especially when the system seems stacked against you. Picasso Cognizance learned this the hard way when his partner's family took his son away from him at the age of two. Picasso spent the next nearly two decades paying child support, immersing himself in the world of parental rights, and being ping-ponged between agencies who made no effort to help him. Picasso opens up about the emotional and legal challenges he faced when trying to regain access to his son, and shares why he started Resolute Fathers, an organization dedicated to educating other parents about how to navigate these flawed systems.Topics include:Challenges of Child Support and Custody: Picasso Cognizance shares his personal experience navigating the legal and emotional difficulties of losing custody and paying child support.The Importance of Knowing Parental Rights: Emphasis is placed on the need for parents to understand their rights, state laws, and how the system works in order to protect themselves and their relationship with their children.Emotional Toll and Resilience: The conversation highlights the emotional hardships, feelings of frustration, and the need for perseverance and hope when facing a complex family court system.Advocacy and Support: Picasso discusses his work with Resolute Fathers, aiming to educate and support parents (particularly fathers) going through similar struggles.Encouragement for Constructive Co-Parenting: The value of cooperative co-parenting without unnecessary legal intervention is underscored as a path to healthier family dynamics. After the interview, Marc shares a tender (and hilarious) story of a 7 year old with big feelings. LINKSResolute Fathers (Instagram)Who's The Daddy?

How do we move from reactive recruiting to predictive talent acquisition? In an era where performance metrics drive every business decision, recruitment often remains stubbornly intuition-based, especially when evaluating soft skills like empathy, communication, and critical thinking. What if AI could help us predict performance before a candidate even starts? And what happens when we connect hiring decisions to actual performance outcomes, creating a feedback loop that makes recruiters smarter over time? Can technology help us understand which risks are worth taking, and which gut feelings we should trust?  My guests this week are Veronique Lacasse, Senior Manager at Bell Canada, and Stephane Rivard, Co-founder and CEO of HiringBranch. In our conversation, Veronique and Stephane walk us through Bell's integrated approach to talent acquisition, which utilizes AI assessment data on soft skills to create a predictive, performance-driven hiring system that is still very much driven by human recruiters. In the interview, we discuss: Soft skills and business performance Measuring soft skills with AI driven assessments Challenges in high-volume hiring Building a feedback loop in recruiting, onboarding, and training Showing recruiters the performance outcomes of their decisions The candidate experience Why human recruiters aren't being replaced What does the future look like? Recruiting Future helps Talent Acquisition teams drive measurable impact by developing their strategic capability in Foresight, Influence, Talent, and Technology. If you're interested in finding out how your TA function measures up in these four critical areas, I've created the free FITT for the Future Assessment. It'll give you personalised insights to help you build strategic clarity and drive greater impact immediately.

We're all tempted, at times, to allow our ego to get the better of us. Many of us feel like we're on top of the world until the precise time we find ourselves on the bottom of it. My guest today, Aaron Hale, found himself in just that scenario as an Explosive Ordnance Disposal tech on a routine assignment when he was blown up by an Improvised Explosive Device (IED) that caused him to lose sight and, later, his hearing. Today, we talk about the fear of being stuck, gratitude for our struggles and adversities, overcoming our greatest fears, how positivity and negativity are infectious, and how you can re-size your ego or have it re-sized for you.
