In this episode of The Sound of Economics, host Rebecca Christie discusses financial stability with Bruegel Director Jeromin Zettelmeyer and Olaf Sleijpen, President of De Nederlandsche Bank and a member of the European Central Bank (ECB) Governing Council. What are the risks? How much should we worry about long-term interest rates and soaring budget deficits? Are the biggest threats coming from inside or outside the euro area? What are the ECB's crisis-fighting tools, and how soon can they be ready? How much of a financial-stability risk is France's ballooning debt? This podcast touches on the European Commission's banking reform effort, the risks from artificial intelligence and cybersecurity, and the need for resilience and economic growth.Related research: ‘Priorities and trade-offs for the next round of EU banking reform', Event, 13 October 2026, Bruegel Frieda, G.

While serving as mission leaders in Brazil, Davis and Asialene Smith noticed a challenge many missionaries face but few are prepared for: coming home. After living with purpose, structure, and a clear mission, returning to everyday life can feel surprisingly difficult. In response, the Smiths began intentionally preparing their missionaries not only to serve well, but also to transition well. On this week's episode, Davis Smith shares lessons from that experience and offers thoughtful advice for navigating "the rest of your life" after the mission. 4:27- The Challenges of Re-Entry 8:09- Spiritual Progression Post-Mission 13:00- How Parents Can Best Help 18:25- Daughter's Experience 26:22- Blessings of Church Callings 31:25- Diversity of Talents and Personalities 34:50- Life Tips 40:34- Financial Stability 46:04- The Unseen Toll on Women 50:14- High Love and High Expectations 57:00- What Does It Mean To Be All In the Gospel of Jesus Christ?

Are you planning for retirement based on how long you expect to live? Learn why underestimating your life expectancy could put your retirement savings at risk.
AI can help financial institutions detect fraud, manage risk, and improve productivity. But when AI systems begin acting autonomously, they may also create risks at a speed and scale people cannot easily oversee.Sarah Breeden, Deputy Governor for Financial Stability at the Bank of England, explores what agentic AI means for financial markets and financial regulation. She explains why regulators must move beyond a simple human-versus-machine framing, build meaningful accountability and guardrails around AI systems, and prepare for the potential of market feedback loops, manipulation, and collusion between autonomous agents.Breeden also discusses the unprecedented pace of investment in AI infrastructure, the uncertainty around its eventual payoff, and how financial regulators can support innovation while protecting stability and public trust.

Comments/ideas: ACFpod@outlook.comWhy do we act on almost every crisis except climate change? In this episode, Frederic Samama, pioneer of the first low-carbon indices and co-author of the BIS Green Swan report, unpacks the psychology and finance behind our inaction. He walks through real cases, from decarbonising pension portfolios and loyalty shares that reward patient capital, to a green bond fund that crowded private money into emerging market infrastructure with the IFC and World Bank. For anyone working in climate finance, sustainable investment, or green infrastructure across Asia and beyond, this is a sharp, practical look at why financial innovation, not just reporting, is what moves capital where it's needed.Books and titles referenced:The Enigma of Climate Inaction (Frédéric Samama): The guest's own book, which explores why humanity persists with economic and mental models that have become unfit despite mounting evidence they need to change.The Green Swan: Central Banking and Financial Stability in the Age of Climate Change (Bolton, Despres, Pereira da Silva, Samama, Svartzman, BIS, 2020): The report that reframed climate change as a systemic threat to financial stability rather than a reputational issue, and gave central banking the term "green swan". Free to download.Sovereign Wealth Funds and Long-Term Investing (edited by Patrick Bolton, Frédéric Samama and Joseph Stiglitz): The volume Samama co-edited with Stiglitz and Bolton, examining how long-horizon state investors can support sustainable development and financial stability.ABOUT FREDERIC: Frédéric Samama is a Managing Director in the Chief Client Office at S&P Global, covering large European asset managers. He began at J.P. Morgan, then led Corporate Equity Derivatives at Crédit Agricole CIB, where he built the first international leveraged employee share purchase programme. At Amundi he helped establish its leadership in green finance, launching the first mainstream low-carbon equity indices and one of the earliest large-scale green bond funds for emerging market infrastructure. He co-launched the first global investor coalition on portfolio decarbonisation, representing the sector at COP21, and later developed the first IPCC-aligned equity benchmarks at S&P Global. He co-authored The Green Swan and wrote The Enigma of Climate Inaction. Environmental Finance named him its 2026 Personality of the Year. He holds a PhD in Economics from Paris Dauphine–PSL and an MPhil in Philosophy from Panthéon-Sorbonne. Listener recommendationsImages of Earth from space: Samama recommends any photograph of the planet taken from space, echoing the "overview effect" astronauts describe, a jolt of perspective that reveals the Earth's beauty, fragility and uniqueness.Documentaries on the social lives of animals (safari viewing): Samama recommends any book or film about how animals live socially, inspired by his own African safari. The host suggests Sir David Attenborough's work as a natural starting point.HOST, PRODUCTION, ARTWORK: Joseph Jacobelli | MUSIC: Ep76 onward excerpts from Vivaldi's La Follia, played by Luca Jacobelli.

Tobias Adrian shares lessons learned from his tenure as Financial Counsellor and Director of the IMF's Monetary and Capital Markets Department, a role he assumed from January 2017 to August 31, 2026. Tobias led the IMF's work on capital markets, financial sector surveillance, monetary and macroprudential policies, digital money, financial regulation, and crisis management, highlighted in the IMF's biannual Global Financial Stability Reports. He reflects on a period marked by the transition from “lower for longer” to “higher for longer” as the markets were hit by the pandemic, multiple wars, the return of inflation, rising tariffs and greater geoeconomic fragmentation. The increase in fiscal spending has made sovereign debt the headline risk, a shift from 2017, when corporate leverage was the headline. Speakers: Joyce Chang, Chair of Global Research Tobias Adrian, Advisor to Managing Director Kristalina Georgieva, International Monetary Fund, former Financial Counsellor and Director of the Monetary and Capital Markets Department This podcast was recorded on September 3, 2026.

That's not how it works. Her first priority is always to get them stable. Fixing comes after. That's the whole philosophy behind getting out of paycheck to paycheck living. Not a quick fix. Stability first. Anthony breaks down why the old "$1,000 emergency fund" advice won't even cover four new tires anymore, and why one month of net pay changes which side of your brain makes your decisions when life throws a curveball.

You've spent your whole career telling other people what their property is worth. So why do you accept the number at the bottom of your own financial statement without question? In this episode, Blaine runs a real appraisal on your financial life. The truck, the boat, the vacation home you use eleven days a year, they inflate your net worth and quietly drain your cash every month. Meanwhile the thing that could actually set you free is sitting mostly unbuilt. You'll get the Four Gateways framework: Financial Stability, Security, Independence, and Freedom, plus the one-line calculation that tells you exactly what each gate costs, and the adjustment most people skip that can cut your target by more than half. You'll also hear why raising your fees will never buy your freedom, why your appraisal business probably isn't an asset yet, what your savings account is actually for, and why the most financially powerful years of your life come after you no longer need the money. Five sacred cows get killed along the way. Bring a pen and your actual numbers.

Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviews Jackson Dunbar. Entrepreneur, author, and chronic pain advocate, joined Rushion McDonald to discuss his book Race Matters in Pain Medicine, his experience living with chronic pain following a serious car accident and failed back surgery, and the lessons he learned about resilience, health, and financial success. The conversation combines personal testimony, healthcare advocacy, and practical strategies for overcoming adversity. Dunbar shared how chronic pain dramatically changed his life but ultimately pushed him to develop new approaches to physical health, financial stability, and personal growth. His story demonstrates how determination, self-education, and adaptability can help individuals thrive despite significant challenges. Purpose of the Interview The interview aimed to: Discuss Dunbar's book Race Matters in Pain Medicine. Raise awareness about disparities in pain management and healthcare treatment. Share his experience navigating chronic pain and recovery. Inspire people facing personal, health, or professional setbacks. Encourage financial literacy, self-help, and personal accountability. Provide practical strategies for creating success under difficult circumstances. Key Takeaways 1. Resilience Is a Choice Dunbar emphasizes that while people cannot always control what happens to them, they can control how they respond. Rather than focusing on what he lost, he concentrated on what he could still accomplish. 2. Create a New Normal A central theme of the discussion is that recovery does not always mean returning to life exactly as it was before. Success often comes from adapting and building a sustainable new reality. 3. Race Matters in Healthcare Dunbar highlights disparities in pain treatment and argues that race can influence how patients are treated, diagnosed, and prescribed medication. His book explores these inequities and their consequences. 4. Chronic Pain Affects Every Aspect of Life Pain impacts more than physical health.

Health and Wealth Are Connected His journey demonstrates that improving health and improving finances can occur simultaneously through discipline, education, and consistent effort. 8. Apply Business Thinking to Personal Challenges Dunbar credits much of his success to using a solutions-focused, analytical approach to managing his health, finances, and personal goals. Memorable Quotes "If you're about to make a change in your life and you feel uncomfortable, that's the best feeling you can have because for the first time in your life, you'll make a decision that's going to be best for you." "I made money, lost 90 pounds, and thrived in chronic pain." "Race matters in pain medicine." "A strong believer in self-help, Jackson Dunbar applied solutions-focused business logic to his own health."

Liang was head of the Fed's Division of Financial Stability for seven years and also served as Under Secretary For Domestic Finance, and we discuss everything from bond market resilience to stablecoins.

Stijn Schmitz welcomes back Steve Hanke back to the show. Steve Hanke is a Professor of Applied Economics at Johns Hopkins University. Hanke highlights the two major wars—the U.S.-Israel conflict with Iran and the Ukraine war—as critical disruptors of global commodity flows. He notes that the Strait of Hormuz is effectively closed, with Iran controlling it, and the Houthis threaten the Red Sea chokepoint, severely constricting crude and refined product supplies. Russia's cutoff of diesel exports and domestic fuel shortages compound the strain. Oil markets are in backwardation, with spot prices above futures, signaling dangerously low inventories that have cushioned prices so far but are nearing depletion. Hanke warns that once physical inventories run out, oil prices could spike dramatically, potentially later this summer. He advises going long on oil, especially major producers, as a straightforward trade for most investors. On gold, Hanke maintains a bullish outlook, projecting a peak around $6,000 per ounce based on historical ratios to real disposable income. He attributes recent pullbacks to dollar strength and rising interest rates but sees central bank buying as a fundamental driver. He also discusses the pressure on the Fed to monetize debt, which could fuel inflation and support gold. The conversation shifts to the broader commodity supercycle, fueled by deglobalization, underinvestment, and the need for larger precautionary inventories. Copper and tungsten are identified as clear bullish plays due to supply deficits. Hanke notes that high diesel prices are squeezing mining and agriculture, potentially raising output prices. He also touches on dollarization, recommending developing countries adopt the U.S. dollar to expand its use rather than de-dollarize. The interview concludes with Hanke emphasizing the importance of money supply growth as the key determinant of nominal GDP and inflation.

Tom Foley began 2021 as the new Executive Director of National Disability Institute (NDI).The global economic cost of excluding disabled individuals from the labor force, which includes barriers to entrepreneurship, ranges between 3% and 7% of global gross domestic product (GDP). many people globally are turning to business ownership for flexible work hours & less of a stressful or hostile work environment. Tom trained as a tax lawyer and financial planner, Tom has more than 30 years of experience in the disability community. As a person who is blind, he has been an advocate and dedicated his career to partnering with other thought leaders to address the complex drivers of economic inequality and create pathways to employment and financial security for the most vulnerable communities. In addition, Tom has been instrumental in developing and influencing federal and state legislation to encourage employment and increase participation of people with disabilities in employment and wealth-building programs. He most recently held the position of Managing Director at the World Institute on Disability.Tom says: I think financial institutions, educators and banks each have to recognize the disability community as a specific market segment of the population that have been traditionally underserved and have a demonstrated need for access to financial tools and services. Once they make the decision to work with the disability community, they need to partner with organizations who are particularly well-positioned to provide industry technical assistance to reach the disability community and further the financial industry's inclusion goals – like National Disability Institute. For example, NDI reaches two million people per year and has been doing this for 15 years. We are particularly well situated, through our research, policy and practice, to reach this community.In addition, it's important for banks and financial institutions to target people with disabilities through their CRA activities. NDI's Center for Disability-Inclusive Community Development (CDICD) works to improve the usage of the opportunities and resources available under the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA). This is really important as millions of dollars, that could help people with disabilities in LMI communities, goes unspent every year. Through NDI's research, we've identified that Black, Indigenous and People of Color (BIPOC) communities with disability are the most underserved. How do we change this? Financial institutions, in particular, need to make a concerted effort to work with and support this segment of the community. In addition, we, the disability community, need to be intentional in our own efforts to better address these issues.© 2026 All Rights Reserved© 2026 Building Abundant Success!!Join Me on ~ iHeart Media @ https://tinyurl.com/iHeartBASSpot Me on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/yxuy23baAmazon ~ https://tinyurl.com/AmzBASAudacy: https://tinyurl.com/BASAud
His mission is to help 100,000 families just like yours achieve financial clarity. As a husband, father, coach, and active community volunteer, he understands the freedom that comes from sound financial planning.Over the past 15 years, he worked his way up from intern to CFP® Financial Advisor, eventually becoming a firm owner before the age of forty. He shares the financial education he was fortunate to receive through podcasts, his book "The Financial Pinwheel," and a variety of online resources.Growing up in Northern New Jersey, he saw firsthand how many people commuted into New York City, working 80-hour weeks in pursuit of financial security—often at the expense of their well-being. He once expected to follow the same path, until a college professor introduced him to a guest speaker who called himself a Financial Planner. This encounter opened his eyes to a career dedicated to helping every day, middle-class families—people just like him.During his internship, he offered to create a financial plan for his mother, a single parent who had returned to work to support their family. Witnessing the relief and confidence his plan gave her; she danced in his office—confirmed his calling. From that moment, he knew he wanted to help others experience the same sense of security and hope. https://www.thefinancialpinwheel.com/abouthttp://www.yourlotandparcel.orgSupport the show

What if more revenue was never the thing standing between you and financial peace? In this episode I sit down with my friend Megan Hale, a former psychotherapist turned financial leader and the creator of Dream Money, a financial operating methodology and software platform built for solo CEOs. Megan and I get honest about the moment she opened a spreadsheet for the very first time, during one of the hardest seasons of her life, and how answering a few simple questions about what she actually needed and wanted changed everything.We dig into why you, the business owner, have to be the one who knows your numbers, and why a bookkeeper or accountant alone is not financial leadership. Megan walks us through her seasonal framework for growth, the three financial seasons every business moves through, and why most of us stay stuck in scale, scale, scale and underpay ourselves for years. She also breaks down the seven financial needs every business has to fund, including the two most people never track, and the one that adds meaning to every dollar that comes in. I'm also really open in this one about my own pivot, learning a new business model as I build Desire AI and the Wealthy Creative.In this episode, you'll learn:[01:34] The hardest year that became the birthplace of Dream Money, and the one offer that funded a full year of stability[04:17] Why having a bookkeeper does not mean you have financial leadership[06:28] The first number every founder needs to know before anything else[08:53] The three financial seasons of a business, and how to tell which one you are in[10:57] The fortifying season most of us never give ourselves, and why it is where you finally get paid[14:49] Why “just enough” is a trap, plus the seven financial needs you have to fund (two of which almost nobody tracks)Here are the resources mentioned in the show:Follow @meganhaleco on InstagramFollow @dreammoneyco on InstagramLearn more about Dream MoneyJoin Desire AIJoin the Wealthy Creative SocietyThe Creative Frequency by Tracy MatthewsAre you enjoying the podcast?

» Produced by Hack You Media: pioneering a new category of content at the intersection of health performance, entrepreneurship & cognitive optimisation.Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hackyoumedia/Website: https://hackyou.media/James Sexton, a divorce lawyer, on why fear is good, why marriage needs a plan, and why heartbreak matters.As someone who sees relationships fail every day, James explains that scepticism about marriage is actually healthy, real bravery requires fear. Most people don't realise marriage is the most legally significant thing you'll do and enter it with zero plan, yet they plan everything in fitness. Passion and chemistry don't equal partnership compatibility, and complacency kills relationships when partners stop trying after "locking someone in." Relationships need intentionality, maintenance, and honest feedback like any other area of life.The hardest part isn't falling in love, it's believing you're worthy of it. Heartbreak is painful but beautiful because grief proves you had something worth losing, and those experiences create the depth most people never experience.00:00 Introduction06:21 Past Relationships and Compatibility10:19 Relationships as Career vs Side Hustle14:55 Designing a Perfect Life Without Marriage18:40 Complacency and Maintenance in Marriage27:10 Honesty and Difficult Conversations in Relationships30:21 Teaching Relationship Skills and Managing Disconnection35:12 Comparison Between Fitness and Relationships40:42 Age and Experience in Love and Marriage45:48 Intentionality in Relationships and Maintaining Love50:01 Appreciating and Valuing Relationships55:14 Overcoming Fear and Embracing Love1:02:59 The Importance of Having Children1:05:47 Financial Stability and Motivation with Children1:11:22 Fame, Wealth, and Relationship Challenges1:18:10 Performance Art in Relationships and Social Media1:25:33 Belief in Love and Life's Fundamental Questions» Escape the 9-5 & build your dream life - https://www.digitalplaybook.net/» Transform your physique - https://www.thrstapp.com/» My clothing brand, THRST - https://thrstofficial.com» Discover Bioniq Lab peptide products- https://bioniqlab.com/mike1010% off with code MIKE10» Join our newsletter for actionable insights from every episode: https://thrst-letter.beehiiv.com/» Join Whoop and get your first month for free - join.whoop.com/FirstThingsThrst» Follow JamesInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/nycdivorcelawyer/?hl=enWebsite: https://www.nycdivorces.com/

Are investors underestimating geopolitical risks? And how exposed is the financial system to stretched asset valuations? In this episode of Euro Matters, Paul Gordon speaks with John Fell about these questions and more. The views expressed are those of the speakers and not necessarily those of the European Central Bank.

Seeing a profit on paper can create a dangerous sense of comfort. Profit and stability are not always the same thing. You can be profitable and still be behind on obligations. Still be carrying pressure. Still be one bad month away from serious problems. A lot of businesses look healthier than they really are because people only focus on revenue and profit while ignoring liquidity, reserves, debt exposure, inconsistent receivables, and operational strain.This episode breaks down why profitability alone is not enough and what financial stability actually looks like underneath the surface.
If you want to get the skinny on anything related to financial markets or the financial system, then you need to talk with Samim Ghamami, Chief Economist of the New York state Insurance Fund. That's what Mark and Cris do on this podcast. The conversation begins with the outlook for interest rates, turns to a perspective on a popular AI narrative that artificial intelligence will push rates up further by spurring investment and reducing household savings, and closes with a timely look at private credit and the risks it may pose to the broader financial system.

Using Supervision to Support Both Income and Energy Adding a supervision tier to your offers can create a different kind of steadiness in your practice—bringing in additional income while shifting the emotional intensity of your week. For many therapists, this work draws on existing skills in a way that feels more spacious and sustainable over time. Structuring supervision in group or dyadic formats can also increase income potential while creating a collaborative learning environment. Pricing tends to feel more grounded when it's tied to your actual needs, while still honoring accessibility where it matters to you. When your services are clearly communicated and easy to find, it becomes much easier to connect with therapists who are actively looking for this kind of support. Noticing Where Expansion Already Wants to Happen There's often a natural pull in practice toward work that feels both meaningful and sustainable—these moments tend to point toward what's ready to grow. (00:04:46) Adding income through clinical supervision (00:07:29) Balancing therapy and supervision roles (00:12:13) Determining pricing for counseling services (00:16:05) Impact of specialized consultants (00:18:13) Promoting posts in therapist groups (00:20:39) Launching a Canadian therapist directory (00:25:07) Adding clinical consultation to therapy A More Sustainable Way to Use Your Therapy Practice Management Skills Consulting for other therapists creates space to use your expertise in a way that can feel more balanced alongside clinical work. Adding a role like this diversifies your income and the way your energy is applied, because of this new B2b (business to business) opportunity. When structured intentionally, this work can support both your financial goals and your long-term sustainability. It's often less about adding something new, and more about allowing your practice to evolve in a way that supports you too. About Linzy Bonham: Linzy Bonham is a private practice therapist turned money coach who helps private practice owners and health professionals feel calm and in control of their finances through her coaching at Money Skills for Therapists and her podcast Money Skills for Therapists. It all started when she saw her extremely skilled colleagues struggle with the money side of business. Some had even left private practice, or were avoiding starting one, because the financial side was too stressful. So Linzy decided to help therapists and health professionals develop peace of mind about their money. Since so many were never taught these skills, she focuses on the “how” of making the business side of private practice doable, and even super satisfying.
