Andrew Mitchem Hi everybody. It’s Andrew here at The Forex Trading Coach. Welcome along to another video and podcast. I’m really pleased today to be joined by Dr. Dave Bonanno over in the US. Dave, welcome along. Nice to have you here. Dr. Dave Bonanno Thanks. Yeah. Great to be here. Talking about mindset in trading. Andrew Mitchem Really looking forward to this because quite often in trading we talk about strategy and rules, talking about indicators and charts and things like that. But today we want to bring it back to something that applies to everybody. No matter what type of trading you are, whether your fundamental trade, a technical trade or a mix. And it’s really important that you start to understand, your mindset within trading. And that’s why, Dr. Dave here today is here. And how he’s going to help you and all of us listening and watching with the mental aspect of trading. So, Dr. Dave, maybe you can start about introducing yourself, what you do and how you help traders at that. Dr David Bonanno helps traders. Dr. Dave Bonanno Okay, great. Yeah. So I started off, as a therapist who is really trying to help people with problems, especially PTSD. And most people don’t really know what PTSD is like. If you look it up, there’s no definition. It’s just a list of symptoms. So the way that I define it now is that it’s when you have adrenaline and it just is overactive. And the thing to know is that when you have adrenaline, it makes your logical brain go offline. So I maintain that adrenaline is every trader’s enemy, and it doesn’t mean that you’re in full fight or flight, or that you’re afraid or that you’re angry. It can affect us in a lot of ways that we’re not even really aware of. And so if you like, read other mindset books or listen to other people who talk about the psychology of trading, they talk about changing your thoughts. But what I’m really all about is how to, engage with your subconscious in a way so that it doesn’t contaminate what you’re doing on a moment by moment basis. Andrew Mitchem Interesting. So you’re taking a slightly different approach to it. So on a like just to get it on the beginning, but to give her some right at the beginning on, on a, on a like a practical basis, someone’s out, they’re trying to identify a trade setup or they’re in a trade maybe. What do you do that could help them with those scenarios? Right. So I had this trader named Tony, and he was really successful in his career, and he wanted to gear up for retirement. And he he was a very logical guy and he could understand intellectually probabilities and all that. But when money was on the line, especially when he was trying to scale or even when he was trying to, take payouts from the prop firms, he would find himself just not quite making the right decisions. So of course, he looked at his strategy and and his, you know, technical skills. But I think what he didn’t realize at the time was sometimes adrenaline would get in the way. And and so that could be like if he was putting pressure on himself to provide a financial security for him and his family, or if he couldn’t really accept losses all that well, and I’m not even talking about like, yeah, I’m not talking about like throwing a tantrum or anything, but like, his wife would notice that he wasn’t in a very good mood after he had a red day. And so, yeah, we we needed to look at what was going on for him subconsciously. And, you know, we all could try to think like, well, you know, I’m pretty much in control of my emotions or I didn’t really notice, you know, what was happening for me in the moment. But we’re talking about subconscious stuff. And by definition that’s what we’re not aware of. Andrew Mitchem Yeah. Dr. Dave Bonanno So yeah. Yeah. So, yeah, one of the things I do first is I help people to identify, what exactly is going on for them. And it doesn’t mean, you know, that we have to go back to the past and blame your parents for everything. Like I was taught to do as a therapist. But we use, eye movements, which is, like EMDR if if people don’t know what that is, it’s the most researched, intervention for PTSD that there ever was. And I’m sure you probably even know people who’ve done it. So anyway, that kind of allows us to interface with your emotional brain. So, like, we have two brain systems that are at play at the same time. It’s kind of like two TV shows that are superimposed on each other, and you can’t just ignore one of them and sometimes I yeah. So sometimes our head and our heart is in sync. But a lot of times it isn’t. At least as much as we’d like to think that it is. So yeah, if we can actually like kind of interface with that part of our brain, that’s the part that makes our logical brain go offline. So we still do need that emotional part. Like it’s sort of like, like, you know, when you’re dreaming, then you wake up and your logical brain think so that was crazy. But that’s really because the logical brain was out of the way. And it’s it’s coming on, you know, with your, emotions. So what I’m getting at is, that when you’re able to move your eyes, that’s what allows you to connect with your heart. It’s great for journaling because instead of trying to go back and guess at what you were doing subconsciously, it really kind of helps you to get there. And that’s what we did for Tony. Andrew Mitchem Interesting. And so his results work improved dramatically after some time. Dr. Dave Bonanno Oh, absolutely. Yeah. He’s he’s doing awesome now. He just, showed me a picture of a house he wants to buy in Florida, and, he, he needed to help his parents out. And he, he was putting a lot of pressure on himself that he wasn’t really quite aware of. And that’s going to add adrenaline and, you know, like. Yeah. So like if he if you look at advice from other trading coaches or mindset coaches, they’re like, okay, well you have to control your emotions and you have to use your willpower in order to kind of, push them aside and focus on what you need to. Yeah. And that that can work sometimes, but it doesn’t work all the time. And if you’re telling somebody who’s full of adrenaline that they need to calm down, that’s kind of like telling somebody who’s full of alcohol that they need to be sober. Like it just. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It’s yeah, yeah, I know I’ve tried. But, Yeah. So I think instead of trying to use your willpower and then blaming yourself when you, when it doesn’t really work, and then people start to go into a cycle. Right. Like they start to doubt themselves and they start to think, well, maybe I’m a weak person or whatever. And really, I think they’re just kind of setting themselves up for failure by expanding, their body and their mind to react in ways that it’s not set up for it. Because once again, like when you’re in fight or flight, you’re but your brain is designed to go offline, like, you know, if you’re if you’re in the forest and you see a bear or something, you’re not supposed to be going through all the, pros and cons of the opposite, like you need to be running away or fighting. It would. Yeah. That’s right. Yeah. So that’s just how we’re built. So. So when we’re training and there’s like, you know, people can follow their rules, fine. If there’s not too much pressure. But when you’re scaling up or when you’re trying to, make this one being trained, you know, that’s going to really help you out. Or if you’re trying to get like a good feeling, like if you’re if you’re a little bit maybe addicted to training, you’re doing it to feel good, then it’s going to backfire. And then the harder you try, the more you’re feeding energy into that negative cycle. Traders issues with over trading and thinking money! Andrew Mitchem Yeah, that’s really interesting. I get a lot of people over the years that come to me and they have this exact issue, and a lot of people, unfortunately, when they get into trading, they they have this mindset. And like I did exactly the same over 20 years ago, you get into it, it’s new, it’s exciting. You think you’re going to make lots of money. Then you start looking at charts and lines and dots and arrows and indicators and you think, wow, this is awesome. I’m good. Look at this. Crosses this. I’m going to buy here, make a fortune. And then you soon realize it doesn’t work. And you then or the other issue I noticed that a lot of people have is they overtrain so much, you know, they want to go down to the very short timeframe charts because they believe the more they trade, their more they’re going to make. And they’re and you used the word just now about being addicted, whether it was alcohol or addicted to things. And I find that so many people have that, that they’re trigger happy. You know, they go to click, click, click, click, click trace and and of course, inevitably it will end up, losing for them. And then their whole mindset starts, that whole self-doubt and, and all they get to that stage where they’ll go. I’ve had so many losing track. This one’s band win and they do something stupid on it all. They they see the best set up that they’ve had all day, and they don’t take it because they’re scared, because they’ve lost so many other traits. There’s all these mix of emotions going on and it results in not being a good trader. Dr. Dave Bonanno Yeah, that’s that’s great. That’s that’s totally what I come across as well. And you know, like when I made the transition to working with traders, it was great because it’s it’s there’s just so much psychology there. Yeah. And and yeah like I think sometimes you know people don’t really want to admit that because they don’t want to be thinking of themselves as like, you know, crazy or whatever. But if you’re like, for example, an athlete who wants to be in the very top of your game, of course you have to work on the physical, but you have to work on the mental as well. That’s right. And so, yeah, if you want to be a trader who’s in the top 5%, who makes money, there’s just no way around it. I mean, nobody’s so good technically that they’re going to be able to cover their emotional mistakes, right? I mean, it’s just like you can’t. So. Yeah. I think, you know, one thing that’s really interesting to me is how the research shows that happy people in general have a less accurate picture of the world than people who are depressed. And the reason I bring that up is because I think we all like to believe that we know what we’re doing and when when somebody is in a situation like you’re talking about, when they get trigger happy, their logical brain is compromised and it’s making it’s making rationales for why they should do it again. Right. Like, oh, well, this it’s it’s got to work out this time. Or like, you know, the gambler’s fallacy or you know, like, like maybe I this time I’m thinking about it correctly or not, or, you know, all the types of things that people tell themselves. And it’s, you know, I think one thing that really happens is when you feel bad about something and, you know, like, it can happen to all of us. Like you could make the perfect decision, but the market just doesn’t go your way. You’ll never know exactly why that was, but because we want to feel in charge, we take on that responsibility and think, well, I did something wrong. And then you can either show restraint and hold back or I think, like most of us, maybe even us men, we want to do something. We want to fix it. Right? So like, it feels so much more powerful to actually be active than to use restraint and just wait for your perfect setup. So I mean, I see this all the time, and yeah, it can be such a slippery slope that when you, if you get, angry or frustrated or anxious or afraid, you’re adding adrenaline to the whole equation, which is going to make you do worse, which is going to just increase your adrenaline as well. And this doesn’t have to happen in just the course of one session. Like I recently talked to a guy who lost $700,000 over the course of three months, and he he just wasn’t fully aware of what was going on for him subconsciously. Yeah. So it’s just that it’s a really hard thing to do. I mean, you know, you could go to therapy and talk about your subconscious all day, but you’re still doing that consciously and it doesn’t really work. But, what I do is I try to be really quick and effective and use these eye movements, and then we just clear things up right away. So like, that’s kind of what happened with Tony as well. So. So I would imagine, Andrew, that you must get frustrated. I would think sometimes when you’re giving people solid advice that they should follow, they know they should follow it, and then they come back to you and they’re like, I just I just didn’t I just couldn’t, right? Like, what do people even say? Don't reinvent the wheel. Andrew Mitchem Yeah, yeah. No, you’re absolutely right. It it is frustrating because people seem to always want to reinvent the wheel. And it’s like you don’t need to. That’s why you joined us. We have the way it works, I can promise you. Yeah. And it comes along from, I think social media right now is a is a big negative for everything that we have to almost put up with us as people who like to help or coaches. Because they’re out there seeing the flash, Lamborghinis and Ferraris and all the rest of it, and they think that’s how it has to be. I actually say to people, the the honest truth is good trading is boring. And I mean that in a really good and honest way, and that you need to be doing the same thing on a daily basis. And as we’re finding out from our chat, you know, to remove the emotions as much as possible, stick to the principle of what you’re saying. One thing that I am massive on from a practical trading point of view. Well, two things. One, we keep our risk very low and controlled on every single trade. I think that helps massively. You don’t get those huge fluctuations of emotions of those those big wins or those big losses. So I hope, right. It doesn’t matter what the market we’re trading, whether it’s a forex or non forex or it doesn’t matter the time frame or directional stop loss. Every trade has the same low and equal risk. So on the next. Dr. Dave Bonanno I’m sorry I don’t I won’t put words in your mouth. But do you find that people agree with you 100% on that intellectually? And then when they just they’re like, oh, but this, this one looks so good. And then they risk more than they should. Andrew Mitchem And no, they don’t agree. That’s the problem. To start with. They think a lot of people don’t that it becomes, well, some do and some don’t. The ones that don’t, go off and do their own, you know, risk or no risk or stupid risk. And then almost everyone will then come back and go, oh, I realized that what you told me, like, you know, three months ago or six months ago, I should have done. And that’s there almost need to find that that moment for themselves and figure it out for themselves, just like I told you. But I can’t say I told you so, because that doesn’t help right now. But, you know, you can feed all this information to people, and, and some people will still go off and break those rules and do their thing, but the good ones are. Geez, circle back and come back and go, like I, I went off and found some other course and some other strategy. I realized that was rubbish. I realized what I got from you a year ago is really good. And now I’m back doing it and I want to start again. That happens quite a bit. The other thing that I think that helps with the way that we trade is not only is our risk allowing control portray, but our reward is high on our trades. So our profitable trade so that we we kind of step, we have little losses, bigger step, little losses, bigger step. And we we, you know everybody shows this perfect equity. We don’t have that. We have a little low controlled losses. Big two, three four times the risk on a profitable trade. You don't need a 90% win rate. And the slight issue that some people have with that is that some people want to see that 90% win rate. Andrew Mitchem A lot of people often get caught up with the win rate. And I give them the classic example of a true example. Many years ago, someone had a like a they showed me like a 90% winning system that they had, but they were still losing money because they did not have the the money management. Correct. Right. You know, as a very basic example, let’s say they were let’s say making ten pips on a trade and they made nine trades profitable with ten pips each. So they made 90. But that one losing trade lost 100 pips. So you know, a very basic example. But they they were basically the guy asking a 90% win. Right. Aren’t I good. But I’m losing money. Dr. Dave Bonanno Right. Yeah. And I bet that was kind of attractive to them because you get that positive reinforcement. I mean, like if you’re. Yeah, if you’re winning nine times out of ten, it feels great. And then of. Andrew Mitchem Course you I’m not losing that one damn trader. I’ve lost money. So there’s all these different like, approaches that people have. And that’s I suppose, the exciting thing, from trading, isn’t it, that there’s no one approach that fits everybody. Dr. Dave Bonanno Right. And, you know, I mean, like to, to talk about, what you experience with your clients sometimes when they come back to you and they say, oh, I finally learned my lesson, you know, like, I mean, I have kids and try to tell what to do in the course. They don’t want to hear it. And then I have to just really. Yeah. Just want to make mistakes and hopefully they’ll they’ll make enough mistakes while they’re young and and the, the stakes are still low before they go out to the world. Yeah. Then do stupid shit. Andrew Mitchem That’s right. Yeah. And I suspect that you and me exactly the same. When we were kids. Dr. Dave Bonanno Yeah. Well, actually. Yeah. Geez. Yeah, yeah, I knew everything when I was kid. Yeah. Andrew Mitchem No, it’s interesting that the how, the how the cycle keeps pace going. What question I wanted to ask you, and this is something I’m personally starting to just change my opinion on, is that I always used to say to people, start on a demo account, make the mistakes on the demo account of the platform and the lot sizes, etc. then go to a smaller live account and go bigger when you’re profitable. I’m almost starting to say to people now, don’t spend so much time on demo. Sure, use the demo to understand how a new trading platform, the software works. But I’m finding now that people that go on to a small live account are feeling those emotions like more realistic that you can never get on a demo, how would you kind of approach that? Dr. Dave Bonanno Yeah, it’s not interesting. You could try as hard as you can to recreate a situation like that for yourself, and it’s just not the same. It’s it’s really like professional athletes, you know, they practice, but you you can only practice so much until the game is on the line. And, you know, I think one thing that really happens is that we get into a flow state. So when things are the way they’re supposed to be, it’s kind of like you’re really focused on the charts, you’re really focused on what you’re doing. And then it’s like, oh my God, it’s the session’s almost over. You need to be using your intuition. But if and if you’re overthinking too much, you know, that’s certainly not going to work. But if you’re if you’re also like distracted by your emotions or by, you know, thinking about, oh, what is this going to mean if like if, if, if you win this trade, you know, like I don’t know how much of a sports fan you are, but I can’t stand, sports interviews because they’ll be like, you know, what were you thinking at this point when it happened? And the guys like, I don’t know, I’ll just see the ball hit the ball. I mean, you know, like, that’s really all there is. Yeah. Andrew Mitchem Now that’s. Dr. Dave Bonanno So. Yeah. And. Yeah. And then you know what? I like how you said that trading should kind of be boring. And, you know there’s there’s intrinsic versus extrinsic motivation. So extrinsic motivation is you’re doing something for the reward. And of course you know that’s part of it. Intrinsic motivation is just because you like it. So like if it yeah like if, if you just like trading then that’s great. And if you’re if you’re caught up in the extrinsic, it’s actually not only going to add to your adrenaline, but it replaces the intrinsic motivation. So if I could just give you a quick, quick example, like they had children read over the summer, they tracked how much they did. Then the next summer they paid them to read. So of course you’d think they’d read so much more. But what happened was it became a job for them and that that just took all the fun out of it. So yeah, if you’re too focused on why and why you’re doing this other than just because I like it, I get into a flow state, then I think that’s just, you know, going to mess you up eventually. You have to love the concept of trading. Andrew Mitchem Yeah. That’s interesting because, yeah. No, that’s a great point. I say to people like because of the time zone that I live in here in New Zealand, that the, the forex market opens on a Monday morning for me. It’s your Sunday afternoon in the US and I say to people, I love Monday mornings, you know because most people will have that alarm going. I say It’s Monday. I’ve got this right. Yeah, I’d love it because, you know, up until cryptos came around, we could not trade at the weekends. You know, you just. The forex market shuts at New York 5 p.m. on a Friday and open on the Sunday at 5 p.m.. And, yes, I just say to people I love Mondays. I absolutely can’t wait for Monday morning to come and start trading it. And you’re exactly right. Because unfortunately, again, and it kind of comes back to that social media issue again, is that so many people who are not trading, they discover trading and they see it as their kind of like their ticket out of their life’s financial problems. And and I get that conversation on a phone or an email, you know, with people, non clients, you know, far too often. And, and I say to them look it’s not your, your golden ticket out of financial problems. It’s not going to replace your job like in a six months. Don’t think of it like that. You have to want to have that enjoyment of looking at the charts or reading the news, whichever type of trader you are, and actually doing it. And like challenging yourself, to do well and to figure out what’s happening in the world and all these different facts, you’ve got to actually really get excited by that. If you like that, then you will keep doing it and you’ll be disciplined, and then the money will follow. But don’t just jump straight into it. Expecting to become a multi-millionaire with the thousand dollar account, right? Dr. Dave Bonanno Yeah. I mean, because the fear, like I think people are as happy as their expectations are in relationships or in activities that they’re doing. And yeah, if you’re expecting too much, it’s going to take away so much of your energy and motivation and and to talk to what you had said, like if you just if you like training, then it’s going to that’s what’s going to center you. Right. Because you can’t be up and down with with your emotions and how you feel. And you really have to get into like just the the nuts and bolts of this is the setup and this is my thought process or, you know, the, my intuition and, that’s that’s something I had to learn as a therapist. Like I don’t or as a coach, really, I don’t coach so that I could make people money. I coach because when I get a new client, I’m curious, like, oh, right, what what set of it have problems or issues are coming in to my door and what can we do about it? I don’t wake up like, oh, I’m going to save this person. It’s just more like and then, you know, if the outcome doesn’t go my way, I don’t have to get too upset about it. I mean, of course I care, but yeah, if you’re if you’re a trader and you could ground yourself and remind yourself why you’re doing this and and then also, I think this is a really fine point that people sometimes don’t understand. If you’re trading to feel good, then that’s going to mess you up to like you need to trade because you like it on a deep level and you want to make money. You don’t do it because you know, your wife left you and your dog died, and I just want to get a hit of dopamine. Like, that’s not going to work out, right? Andrew Mitchem Yeah. Yeah. Exactly. Right. And another thing, I think it’d be really interesting to hear your thoughts on is one thing I pride ourselves on is not only do we just have one strategy, but we have a massive community and we’re all trading that one strategy. When I started out, it was in, I’m talking 20 plus years ago now. It was in the early days of a couple of trading forums, and you used to go on to these forums because, you know, trading is a lonely business, you know, otherwise, you know, no one understands what you’re doing. Even today and back then don’t forget, that was the dial up internet days. And and the. Yeah, right. Traditional forum sites don't work. Andrew Mitchem I quite often have to get a connection. Yeah. But, you know, I used to go on to a four on the forum sites and then you’d find a thread, someone created this strategy, and then every time someone would come in and go, I think it should add this indicator, and, and it just blew out into a complete argument and mess. And I realized that when I started the coaching, I didn’t want that situation happening because it frustrated me when I was learning. So one of the things I’m really proud of is our community that we have on our forum site and webinars that we hold everybody, no matter what stage of the like, the journey they’re on. They’re all out there trading the one system, but they’re all out there helping each other. And I find that having that back up, to follow someone, to watch someone to ask someone is such an underestimated part of a trade, a success. Dr. Dave Bonanno Yeah, that’s great. And you’re right, it is such a lonely job. I mean, you’re looking at screens and. Yeah. How is your how’s your spouse supposed to understand really what you’re going through? And of course, they’ll probably get sick of you talking about it too. But, Yeah. Isn’t that such a great feeling is to be able to help each other? And I trust that your people are good at sharing their losses. Right? Because I think, you know, whatever you focus on, you magnify. And if you want clicks, like if you’re an influencer, you want clicks, you’re going to be selling the dream. And it’s really like, I’m sorry to be crude, but it’s kind of like you can go on social media and you just see these people masturbating and and you think like, well, why can’t I do that? And they seem relatable. They’re real people. It’s not like they’re on TV and they’re celebrities. Like it’s real people. And then they only say, you can do what I did if you buy my stuff. But, I hope that in your community, in your forums, like, people are real with each other, right? Be real with your trading. Andrew Mitchem Absolutely. There’s everything on that. And we, you know, just before we started, I just posted two winning trades on the losing trades that happened overnight. And we post all of our trades profitable and not because you can still learn from those. We’re not out there looking like, look at me. All these beautiful profitable trades, all post trades that lose. And you know all we’re going back to is that same thing is that our losses were controlled. But the the setup that we took at the time looked very good. Otherwise we wouldn’t have taken it. And the market, something happened. It didn’t go in our favor. Okay. That’s a shame. We don’t like that. But it’s the way it is. But our loss is controlled and, you know. But then the profitable trades that we have made up for that loss plus more. And so I’m a firm believer and we show everything. And that’s the beauty of posting trades like on a daily basis for people right around the world to look at and follow. And also it teaches them the, the I suppose the discipline of these people who have done this for years and years still have losing trades. And that’s fine to have providing we, you know, you look back and and get you full. You shouldn’t have taken that because of A, B and C, and that’s a lesson. But you know, hopefully we don’t do that very often. But the market sometimes will do what the market wants to do. You can have an A grade setup and it doesn’t work. But and that’s part of the lesson the discipline, the journey. Dr. Dave Bonanno Right. And and it’s really hard I think for a lot of people to be comfortable with not knowing something. So yeah, if if the outcome isn’t what you wanted, it could have been one of a million things. And you can never really. Right. So I mean, of course you’re going to gauge, your outcomes and you’re going to journal and what went right and what went wrong. But it’s every single time you’re really just inferring the probability of what happened. And you don’t have that real solid ground to, to feel comfortable on. Right. Like you’re just always kind of guessing to some degree. And you have to be okay with that. And I think it is really, really helpful to have other people remind you of that because, yeah, we could tell ourselves all day, oh, I’m going to have losses. And you know, I’m not perfect person or whatever, but if you actually have somebody else remind you of that, like, dude, you’re you’re still damn good. You’re still like, you know, the shot good person. Then I think that’s yeah, crucial. It is you. So that’s really cool. Contacting Dr Dave. Andrew Mitchem Absolutely. So, Dr. Dave. How can someone find you? And what are they going to like? What situation scenario are they going to be in to say, I need this, guys, help? Dr. Dave Bonanno Yeah. Great. So I don’t want to sound like anybody has mindset problems, but I do want to underscore how there’s just a lot of things going on that once again, we’re not fully aware of. And it doesn’t mean that there’s anything wrong with you. Anything. So yeah, I’ve worked with a whole bunch of people and some of them had issues in their regular life, and some were really dead end. As a matter of fact, that’s one thing I like about working with traders as opposed to PTSD, because they say if they say, you know, you are who you associate with. I was like, oh my God, I’ve been associating with the most damaged people in society for decades. But so yeah, I love working with traders. You can you can look me up at WB ww dot max discipline.com or we’ll have links. I just published a book on Amazon called The Consistently Calm Trader. And people have been having really good feedback for you there. And, if you wouldn’t mind, I’d like to just give one more tip to your audience, which is the best way to handle losses is not to get upset or try harder, or even to try to ignore how you feel about it. If you can actually be sad. And I know nobody wants to feel sad, but if the market doesn’t go your way today and you can just actually literally feel that like sad about it for even like ten minutes, then you’re you’re not adding any type of adrenaline to the equation and you’re accepting reality as opposed to, well, it shouldn’t happen this way or I should have done this. That’s not reality. If you’re talking about what should have happened and then because you can accept reality, you can move on and, and really come to a, later with a clean slate. Does that make sense? Andrew Mitchem Yeah. It’s a really interesting approach. I like that very simple, but easy to do. Dr. Dave Bonanno Yeah. You got to be sad. Andrew Mitchem Yeah, well, that’s good because not people don’t tell you those type of things go right. Dr. Dave Bonanno Yeah, yeah. Andrew Mitchem Hey what I want to hear I yeah, it’s good. That’s a really good approach. I like it because you have to be able to like, you know, the whole phrase of get back on the horse tomorrow, you know, and and if you’re still angry because of yesterday’s losses or the market didn’t do what I thought it should do, and you’re still, like, venting over that? How on earth can you expect to approach the next trade or the next day with any clarity? Dr. Dave Bonanno Yeah. And you can’t just tell yourself, oh, well, I’ll forget it and I’ll be fine. No, it’s just that’s not the way to go. Like you have to address these things. And so, you know, I don’t know how it is in New Zealand, but here in the States, like, I can’t stand how everybody’s trying to live their best life all the time. And, you know, if you ask somebody how they doing and if they if they don’t say awesome, then you’re like, oh my God. Well what’s wrong? Like what’s wrong with you? You know, like, I mean, I of course, you know, I like about us here in the States that we, we strive we, we have really high expectations. But I think it can really backfire for a lot of people. And then, yeah, if you’re on social media and you’re seeing all these people with their lambos and their, you know, their houses and stuff, I mean, it’s just going to get you down. So, yeah, if you could be sad, you could accept where you are. What has happened, and then you can get right back on the horse and, go where you need to go. Andrew Mitchem Yeah. That’s awesome. Hey, thank you so much today, dogs. I love chatting to you. And I think there’s just been massively beneficial. As you mentioned, we’ll put links to your site on here as well.

This week Amy is solo for a short and encouraging episode focused on one common challenge in motherhood: staying consistent with workouts. As a follow-up to the conversation about finding time to exercise with little kids, this episode is designed to be simple, practical, and motivating for moms navigating busy seasons of life.Amy shares why consistency in movement matters during motherhood and how this habit will continue lifelong. She encourages listeners to stay goal-oriented by keeping fitness goals realistic, simple, and attainable — especially during demanding seasons. A key theme of the episode is “proof of concept”: showing yourself that you can stay consistent even during tough weeks, whether that's a sick child, a partner traveling for work, or a packed family schedule. Each small win reinforces confidence and resilience!Amy also highlights the importance of protecting workouts by supporting your body in other areas of life, including proper hydration, quality sleep, and fueling with nourishing foods. Amy emphasizes that these foundational habits set moms up for more effective and sustainable workouts. She closes with a powerful mindset shift for busy days — instead of crossing workouts off the to-do list, consider letting go of a less critical task like putting away the laundry. In this season of life, movement is essential and deserves to be prioritized! Consistency doesn't require perfection — just intention, flexibility, and a commitment to caring for your body.If you enjoyed listening to this episode, we would love it if you could share it to your Instagram stories and tag us, @expectingandempowered.

Together, they unpack what it means to end a marriage that simply ran its course, how to navigate family disappointment, and how to rebuild when there's no obvious villain.Simona shares how growing in different directions, misaligned life goals, and emotional distance led her to choose divorce after nearly a decade together.

In this episode, I'm sharing my honest experience with Dry January for moms, how it unexpectedly turned into 60+ days alcohol-free, and what I learned about sleep, weight loss, hormones, ADHD, and motherhood along the way. If you've ever used wine to unwind… struggled to lose weight… or questioned your relationship with alcohol, this conversation is for you. What to Listen For: Why alcohol was disrupting my sleep (and how better sleep boosted my energy almost instantly) The surprising connection between ADHD and alcohol consumption Why one night of drinking can impact your hormones and cravings the next day How alcohol affects leptin and ghrelin (your hunger and fullness hormones) The real impact of alcohol on weight loss and metabolism How alcohol can stall postpartum fitness and health goals What moms need to know about alcohol and breastfeeding How to approach Dry January for moms without extreme or all-or-nothing rules Dry January and taking a break from alcohol  for moms isn't about restriction. It's about awareness with your relationship with alcohol and when you use it.  If you're feeling exhausted, stuck in your weight loss journey, struggling with cravings, or just not feeling like yourself… this episode will help you reflect on whether alcohol is helping or hurting your goals.

 Love or Compromise?Is it love that holds a relationship together? Or is it compromise?Love is what draws us together in the first place. But compromise is what keeps us together.Love alone is not enough. Psychologists define love as an emotion. And like all emotions, love fluctuates with stress, sleep, health, and the thousands of other factors that shape our daily lives.You can love your partner deeply and still get annoyed, frustrated, or angry with them. Love won't shield you from conflict, nor will it magically resolve your disagreements.That's why even the happiest couples argue and go through rough patches, regardless of how much love they share. The difference is that strong couples understand love can't fix everything—but compromise can.The Psychology of CompromiseCompromise happens when you balance what you want, what your partner wants, and what's best for the relationship itself.Every couple brings together unique habits, values, and experiences. Expecting perfect alignment is unrealistic. Instead, healthy couples learn to negotiate their shared reality. They turn “my way” and “your way” into “our way.”But compromise only works when it's rooted in a strong sense of we.Research shows that couples who describe their conflicts using “we” language—“we decided,” “we talked,” “we figured it out”—feel more connected and satisfied after disagreements. When both partners see compromise as a shared effort rather than a personal loss, it actively strengthens the bond between them.What Compromise Looks Like in Real LifeCompromise doesn't always look romantic. Sometimes it means agreeing to watch a movie you'd never choose yourself. Other times, it means listening to your partner vent while resisting the urge to immediately offer solutions.Rigid, black-and-white thinking—where one person must be right and the other wrong—will never work in a relationship. Even if you are technically right, if your partner cannot follow or agree, you are both left stuck. Insisting on fairness in small things—“You have to clean up, it's your turn, I did it last time”—often leads to unnecessary conflict. Maybe your partner did something else for you in the meantime. Is getting furious over such things really worth it?Instead, you'll constantly be presented with a choice: Are you willing to meet your partner halfway?Today, it might be about chores. Tomorrow, how you spend your evening. Next month, how you navigate family holidays. It might involve finding middle ground, taking turns, or agreeing to a third option neither of you had initially considered.What matters is that both of you feel heard and respected, and that no one feels the need to “win” or “be right.” When you consistently make enough space for one another's needs, you build something that love alone rarely provides: reliability.My Video:  What Keeps Relationships Together? https://youtu.be/zeQIEntAAOYMy Audio: https://divinesuccess.net/wp-content/uploads/2021/Podcast5/What-Keeps-Relationships-Together.mp3 

In this episode of Storage Wins, Alex Pardo conducts a performance debrief with Dan Wentzel, unpacking what happens when momentum slows—not because of laziness, but because of real-life responsibilities, distractions, and competing priorities. Together, they examine missed KPIs, evaluate what actually caused the slowdown, and build a game plan for staying consistent even during chaotic weeks.   This episode also introduces one of the most practical tools so far: a simple back-of-the-napkin valuation method that allows Dan (and listeners) to make offers even when sellers won't share revenue numbers. The goal is simple—make sure meaningful conversations always lead to offers.     You'll Learn How To: Stay consistent when life disrupts your ideal schedule Diagnose whether setbacks are one-off events or recurring patterns Keep momentum without guilt, judgment, or burnout Make offers even when sellers won't share financials Use simple math to move deals forward without overanalyzing     What You'll Learn in This Episode: [0:00] Why this season is built around real-time accountability [3:28] Why you can't control outcomes—but you can control inputs [6:15] Evaluating missed KPIs without self-sabotage [8:22] Expecting resistance once you commit to a goal [11:26] How distractions compound when there's no game plan [14:11] Are you constantly "putting out fires"—or starting them? [19:16] What actually qualifies as a meaningful conversation [21:07] Progress check: offers are increasing—and why that matters [22:00] Why every meaningful conversation should lead to an offer [24:40] Back-of-the-napkin valuation using square footage and market rates [29:10] Why underwriting conservatively builds confidence [35:44] How to estimate NOI without seller-provided revenue [38:53] Giving sellers a reason to share information [41:34] Why "lazy" can be smart when it comes to deal analysis [58:26] Weekly commitments and how to simplify execution     Who This Episode Is For: Investors struggling to stay consistent during busy seasons of life Listeners who feel discouraged when they miss weekly goals Anyone unsure how to make offers without perfect information People who want practical tools—not theory—to move deals forward     Why You Should Listen: Momentum isn't built by perfect weeks—it's built by recovering quickly from imperfect ones. This episode teaches you how to stay in the game when life throws curveballs, how to evaluate progress honestly, and how to keep offers moving even when information is incomplete. If you've ever felt stuck because conditions weren't "ideal," this episode shows you how to keep going anyway.     Follow Alex Pardo here: Alex Pardo Website: https://alexpardo.com/ Alex Pardo Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/alexpardo15 Alex Pardo Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/alexpardo25 Alex Pardo YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@AlexPardo Storage Wins Website: https://storagewins.com/     Have conversations with at least three storage owners, brokers, private lenders, or equity partners inside the Storage Wins Facebook Group.

Andrew Wells reacts to yesterday's FOMC minutes, arguing the members are trying to react “to the market.” On rates, he would “not be surprised” to see the 10-year at 4.5 this year, and discusses the need for inflation to move down before any cuts. He doesn't expect any cuts before Kevin Warsh takes over as Fed Chair, and thinks that the timeline could be pushed further out. He likes defensive names and the utilities sector, including Duke Energy (DUK).

In this host-led episode of Uncover the Human, Cristina Amigoni and Alex Cullimore unpack a quiet but costly contradiction in modern work: we expect teams to perform flawlessly without ever giving them time to practice being a team. Drawing parallels to sports teams, musicians, and even improv groups, they explore why collaboration, trust, and communication don't magically happen just because people share an org chart—or a spreadsheet. Teams are dynamic, constantly shifting with restructures, vacations, new hires, and evolving goals, yet most workplaces invest almost nothing in intentionally forming and reforming how people work together.The conversation challenges the myth that capable individuals will simply “figure it out” and instead makes the case for regular pauses, shared reflection, and deliberate team formation. From metaphors about baking cakes without stirring to real examples of retreats, frameworks, and outside facilitation, Cristina and Alex show why investing time in how teams connect—not just what they do—is essential for sustainable performance. If you've ever wondered why talented teams feel misaligned, burned out, or stuck, this episode offers a human, practical reframe on what it really takes for teams to work well together.

Part 2 in the sermon series "I Don't Get It"

*** Content Warning: Self-harm ***On May 17 2008, Swedish twin sisters Ursula and Sabina Eriksson boarded a bus from Liverpool to London. After a routine road stop, the bus driver noticed the twins were acting suspiciously and were clinging tightly to their bags. Concerned, the driver refused to let Ursula and Sabina back on board. Soon after, two patrol officers were called to an incident on the M6 motorway near the English city of Stoke-on-Trent. Expecting the worst, the officers were surprised to find the Erikkson twins standing calmly and unscathed on the shoulder of the motorway. But within a few minutes, the seemingly calm situation took a frightening turn.---Casefile Archives is a series of special bonus releases revisiting the earliest years of the show.

Ted Oakley, founder and managing partner at Oxbow Advisors, says that he expects the market to be setting new highs but to challenge some serious lows, hurt by high valuations, current economic conditions and the election cycle. "This will not be a real strong year for the market, and if you make money, you will have to know where to invest and when to invest," Oakley says. He notes that he is more invested internationally in the last 18 months than he has been in years, due largely to lower valuations abroad, and he is also keeping some powder dry expecting better opportunities when the market gets shaken through patches of volatility. Chris Oberbeck, chairman and chief executive officer at Saratoga Investment Corp., says that  increases in default rates are more of a return to normal than a sign of trouble for business-development companies or the economy. Between a bankruptcy and fraud case like First Brands and softness in the software business, Oberbeck thinks that recent activity is more a hangover coming from a time of particularly low defaults, rather than a sign of something bad building up. In the Market Call, Simon Lack, managing partner of SL Advisors — which oversees the American Energy Independence Index — talks about energy and energy infrastructure stocks, as well as how current events in Venezuela are likely to affect oil stocks and energy markets.

Kevin Roberts walks through the state of the car market. He thinks tax refunds will lead to a strong spring season for the industry, but says the market is still “working through” the Covid impact for used vehicles. Missing supply in the 3-5 year-old range will keep prices high for the next few years, he argues. High rates and the total cost of ownership are pushing consumers out of the sector. Kevin also comments on the state of the EV sector.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – / schwabnetwork Follow us on Facebook – / schwabnetwork Follow us on LinkedIn - / schwab-network About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

Can intuitive eating and weight loss exist at the same time… especially after having kids? In this episode of Nutrition for Mamas, postpartum dietitian Brooke Miller talks with board-certified psychiatrist Dr. Stefanie Reinald about the real, nuanced middle ground between intuitive eating and wanting to lose weight as a mom. If you've ever felt: • Guilty for wanting your jeans to fit again • Confused by anti-diet culture • Uncomfortable in your postpartum body • Afraid to track food but unsure what your body needs • Told you must “accept your body” even when you don't feel healthy This conversation is for you. We discuss: • What intuitive eating actually gets right • Where intuitive eating can miss the mark for moms • Why wanting weight loss is not automatically unhealthy • How nourishing your body can naturally support fat loss • Protein and fiber needs for postpartum moms • Hormones, set-point weight, and metabolism after pregnancy • When tracking food helps vs when it hurts • Why the scale is neutral (but not always helpful) • GLP-1 medications and modern weight culture • How to feel more comfortable in your body today • Healthy motivation vs punishment mindset Dr. Reinald shares clinical insight from working with women with eating disorders, postpartum mental health struggles, and hormone imbalances, along with her personal experience as a mom of four. This episode is Part 2 of our burnout series. Watch Part 1 for burnout, hormones, ADHD in moms, and exhaustion after baby.
