In this episode, Raaj Kurapati, Executive Vice Chancellor and Chief Operating Officer, University of Tennessee Health Science Center shares how the organization has navigated difficult financial decisions, including workforce adjustments, to strengthen its foundation. He also discusses priorities for 2026, with a focus on rural healthcare access, workforce development, and evolving as a collaborative leader.

As therapists, most of us were never taught how to run a business—let alone how to manage money, payroll, hiring, or leadership in a way that's both ethical and sustainable.Licensed therapist and group practice owner Gordon Brewer and I talk openly about money mindset, generosity, boundaries, hiring mistakes, and what it really takes to create a financially sustainable group practice without burning yourself out or sacrificing quality of care.If you identify as a people-pleaser, an over-giver, or a “nice” leader who are quietly paying the price for unclear boundaries, this episode is for you.Gordon opens up about what didn't work when building his group practice, what had to change, and how learning to lead with clarity—rather than guilt—ultimately benefited both his team and his business.“Being kind means setting expectations and boundaries, so people know what to expect. Being nice often means avoiding those conversations—and that's where things fall apart.” — Gordon BrewerMistakes Made and Lessons Learned: Building a Sustainable Group PracticeGordon shares how over-giving with compensation, avoiding hard conversations, and underestimating the importance of clear financial systems led to stress and instability in his practice. Through hiring missteps, money mindset work, and implementing Profit First, he learned that sustainable leadership requires clarity, boundaries, and a willingness to course-correct.(00:04:16) Gordon's Journey to Owning a Group Practice and Hosting a Podcast(00:09:37) Sustainability Over Generosity: Lessons in Business(00:13:08) Navigating Money Stigma in Group Practice Ownership(00:17:51) Money Management and Hiring Lessons(00:20:05) How Boundaries and Values Shape Your Success with Finances(00:23:39) Parenting: Commands Disguised as Questions(00:27:03) Employee Benefits vs. Contracting(00:31:07) Planning for Financial Stability and Rebuilding a Sustainable Practice(00:36:43) How to Avoid Over-Giving in Your Private PracticeBuilding a Practice That's Generous and SustainableGordon's reflections highlight a truth I see again and again in my work with therapists: sustainability doesn't come from good intentions alone. It comes from aligning your values with clear business decisions, financial transparency, and leadership that supports everyone involved—including you.Key takeaways you can apply right now: Run the numbers before calling something “generous.”High splits, low fees, or extra perks aren't generous if they put your practice at risk. Sustainability is what allows generosity to continue.Being “nice” can quietly lead to burnout.Avoiding boundaries and hard conversations may feel compassionate in the moment, but it often creates resentment and instability over time.Kind leadership is clear leadership.Setting expectations upfront—and holding people to them—is one of the most respectful things you can do for your team.Money stories shape business decisions more than we realize.Beliefs about greed, selfishness, or worthiness often come from family or faith backgrounds and deserve to be examined—not blindly obeyed.It's never too late to course correct.Gordon's willingness to rebrand, rebuild systems, and restructure his business model created a healthier practice that better served everyone involved.If you're noticing patterns of over-giving, financial stress, or people-pleasing in your practice, I hope this episode helps you feel less alone—and more empowered to lead with clarity and confidence. Sustainable, ethical business decisions aren't a betrayal of your values. They're how you protect them.Ready to Improve your Business Money Skills?Are

What really matters for markets in 2026—and why are most forecasts focused on the wrong metrics? Lance Roberts visits with Simplify Portfolio Manager & Chief Investment Strategist, Michael Green, CFA, to examine the structural changes inside today's markets that are reshaping price discovery, volatility, and risk. From the rise of passive investing and ETF dominance to the growing disconnect between fundamentals and flows, the mechanics of how markets trade have changed dramatically. We explore why small-cap and mid-cap stocks remain the most economically sensitive indicators, how ETFs can pull sellers higher during inflows—and why that dynamic reverses dangerously during outflows. We also examine declining market elasticity, the limitations of the Efficient Market Hypothesis, and why traditional analysis is increasingly ignored. Beyond markets, we connect these shifts to investor behavior, financial nihilism, generational risk-taking, and the unintended consequences of policy intervention. From the "Bank of Dad" to systemic fund imbalances, this discussion reframes what a useful market outlook should actually focus on heading into 2026. This is not a prediction. It is a framework for understanding risk, structure, and consequences. 0:00 INTRO 2:02 - Outlook for 2026 - What's the important metric? 6:22- Small-cap, Mid-cap stocks are most economically sensitive 8:32 - The importance of Understanding What You Own 11:09 - The Issue of ETF's - Dragging the Sellers higher 13:13 - The Theory of Passive Investing 15:16 - The Composition of Trading has Changed 17:52 - How to correct an over valued stock 19:25 - The Problem with Passive Investing - what happens when investors start selling indexed ETF's (the Bigger the Company, the LESS Elastic the Demand Response) 23:55 - The Efficient market Hypothesis 25:32 - What Makes for a Useful Market Forecast - The market Can't Crash?? 27:14 - Systemic Issues within the Market 31:14 - What Would Michael Green Do? 33:18 - The Death of Analysis & Fund Imbalances 37:13 - The Next Generation of Investors and Risk-taking 39:17 - The Poverty Line & Young Investors 43:34 - When the Government Gets Involved 46:04 - Making Choices - Luxuries vs Necessities 49:18 - Financial Education, Financial Stability, & Financial Choices: Financial Nihilism 53:16 - The Bank of Dad & Soft Society 1:00:58 - Actions Have Consequences 1:05:30 - How to Reach Michael Green 1:06:33 - The Problem with The Problem Hosted by RIA Advisors Chief Investment Strategist, Lance Roberts, CIO, w Simplify Portfolio Manager & Chief Investment Strategist, Michael Green, CFA Produced by Brent Clanton, Executive Producer ------- You can read Michael Green's blog, "Yes...I Give a Fig," here: https://www.yesigiveafig.com/ ------- Watch Today's Full Video on our YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TQSiR6fxLGg&list=PLVT8LcWPeAuhi47sn298HrsWYwmg8MV7d&index=1 ------- Watch our previous show, "Social Security Reform: Expansion or Cuts?" here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TQSiR6fxLGg&list=PLVT8LcWPeAuhi47sn298HrsWYwmg8MV7d&index=1 -------- The latest installment of our new feature, Before the Bell, "Market Rotation Is Broadening — But Risks Remain," is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KS2mSWm16qg&list=PLwNgo56zE4RAbkqxgdj-8GOvjZTp9_Zlz&index=1 ------- Get more info & commentary: https://realinvestm entadvice.com/newsletter/ -------- SUBSCRIBE to The Real Investment Show here: http://www.youtube.com/c/TheRealInvestmentShow -------- Visit our Site: https://www.realinvestmentadvice.com Contact Us: 1-855-RIA-PLAN -------- Subscribe to SimpleVisor: https://www.simplevisor.com/register-new -------- Connect with us on social: https://twitter.com/RealInvAdvice https://twitter.com/LanceRoberts https://www.facebook.com/RealInvestmentAdvice/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/realinvestmentadvice/ #MarketOutlook2026 #PassiveInvesting #ETFMarketStructure #FinancialNihilism #MarketRisk #MichaelGreen

Stablecoins are digital tokens, pegged to a fiat currency. What could possibly go wrong?For one type of stablecoin the answer is: plenty, according to Richard Portes. The founder and honorary president of CEPR is also co-chair of the European Systemic Risk Board Crypto Asset Task Force. In this role he has been investigating the risks of multi-issuer stablecoins in Europe. He tells Tim Phillips that, if one of these stablecoins hit trouble, US holders could use European regulation to recover their investment from the coin's European reserves. And that, he argues, would be a threat to Europe's financial stability.

Do you ever want to approach someone… but freeze because you're scared you'll come off creepy, awkward, or like you're bothering them?In this episode, we break down why this fear is so common and why it doesn't mean there's something wrong with you. Most of the time, your mind is entering into fight-or-flight and turning a simple moment into a threat… which keeps you stuck in your head, overthinking, and doing nothing.We talk about what you're really afraid of when you fear rejection, how to shift from “trying to get something” to simply creating a genuine moment, and how small actions can rebuild your confidence.This episode will help you change your life by changing the way you handle rejection, so you can approach people with more presence, self-trust, and ease.John Keegan is NYC's #1 dating coach for men.Timestamps: (00:00) Introduction(00:44) Changing Your Mindset: From Taking to Giving(02:43) The Power of Presence and Listening(06:21) Building Momentum Through Small Actions(08:29) The Importance of Self-Love and Acceptance(18:03) Navigating Modern Dating Challenges(31:39) The Hero's Journey in Relationships(37:56) The Impact of Dating Apps on Relationships(41:09) The Importance of Financial Stability in Dating(41:57) Being a Rock: Emotional Stability in Relationships(47:37) Embracing Authenticity and Self-Love(51:00) Overcoming Life's Challenges and Finding Confidence(57:42) Journey to Becoming a Dating Coach(01:04:55) Final Thoughts and AdviceGet the FREE Move Your Mind Masterclass here:go.nickbracks.com/moveyourmindAccess FREE Move Your Mind training here:https://go.moveyourmind.io/trainingConnect with Nick:Instagram: https://instagram.com/nickbracksWebsite: http://nickbracks.comEmail: contact@nickbracks.comConnect with John:https://theawakenedlifestyle.com/ Hosted on Acast.

If you're a therapist who carries the weight of being the primary breadwinner while also wanting more presence, more ease, and more time with your family, this episode is for you. This isn't a conversation about hustling harder or squeezing more productivity out of already-full days. It's about slowing down enough to make values-based decisions—so your money, time, and energy actually support the life you want to be living.In this coaching-style episode, I sit down with Colleen Barrows, a perinatal mental health therapist, mom of two young children, and graduate of Money Skills for Therapists. Together, we walk through the very real tension Colleen is feeling between maintaining financial stability as the primary breadwinner, managing most of the household responsibilities, and wanting more meaningful one-on-one time with her kids—while also nurturing a creative passion project, which will help therapists and postpartum women, that she hopes may one day provide her with passive income.Choosing Time, Family, and Financial Stability as a Breadwinning TherapistLike so many breadwinning therapist moms, Colleen's “math brain” keeps telling her that the solution is to see more clients. She's currently carrying a heavy client load while also functioning as the household manager and emotional anchor at home. In this conversation, I gently guide Colleen through a reflective exercise—imagining herself years from now, looking back on this fleeting season of early parenthood—and we explore what choices she would feel most proud of when it comes to time, money, and energy.A Coaching Conversation for Breadwinning Therapist Parents(00:03:39) Balancing Passion, Time, and Family(00:12:99) Juggling Work and Household Finances(00:16:57) Balancing Careers and Relationship Equity(00:22:41) Quality vs. Quantity in Parenting(00:24:20) Seeking Balance and Intentionality(00:27:08) Household Roles and Compatibility(00:31:52) Balancing Breadwinning and Family(00:33:21) Money Clarity for TherapistsExploring Choices Around Time, Energy, and IncomeThis episode offers an honest look at the tension many therapist parents feel—between financial responsibility, private practice demands, and the desire to be fully present during a fleeting season of early parenthood. If you've ever felt pulled between money decisions and your deeper values, this conversation is for you.Key takeaways to reflect on:Balance isn't just math: Financial choices should support your well-being, not override it.Quality over quantity: Small, protected moments of connection matter more than constant presence.Revisit roles regularly: Sharing household labor and support can ease resentment and restore energy.Being the breadwinner often means carrying more than just the paycheck. This season of parenting young children is intense—but it's not permanent. With thoughtful, values-led choices, you can build a life you'll look back on with pride, not regret.Ready to Improve your Business Money Skills?Are you a Solo Private Practice Owner?

In a recent candid conversation, Stassi Cramm, the first female prophet of the Community of Christ, discussed the Kirtland Temple sale & highly publicized sale of historic sites. She offered insights into the church's current financial & addressed the complexities of continuing to lead a worldwide, diverse body on issues of inclusion and mission. President Cramm, who was ordained in June 2025 and previously served nine years in the First Presidency, emphasized that her approach centers on faithful agility and discerning God's ongoing call for the church. https://youtu.be/blYLTxtHqVk Don't miss our other conversations with Stassi: https://gospeltangents.com/people/stassi-cramm/ Copyright © 2025 Gospel Tangents All Rights Reserved   Navigating Finances and Faith: An Update from Community of Christ President Stassi Cramm In a recent candid conversation, Stassi Cramm, the first female prophet of the Community of Christ, offered insights into the church's current financial reality following the highly publicized sale of historic sites, including the Kirtland Temple, and addressed the complexities of continuing to lead a worldwide, diverse body on issues of inclusion and mission. President Cramm, who was ordained in June 2025 and previously served nine years in the First Presidency, emphasized that her approach centers on faithful agility and discerning God's ongoing call for the church. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The $200 Million Kirtland Temple Sale Question: Financial Stewardship The sale of the Kirtland Temple and associated properties to the LDS Church generated almost $200 million. This revenue was immediately invested into the church's endowments, which are intended to provide some foundational income for the annual budget. However, Cramm confirmed a widespread projection that this sale alone did not generate enough to fully endow the operations of the church into perpetuity. The current financial model still relies significantly on Worldwide Mission Tithes (tithing) as an essential element of discipleship. Based on current trends, if the number of financial supporters continues to slowly decline, the Community of Christ will face additional financial questions around the year 2030. Cramm noted that the church's leaders, including the Council of 12 and the Presiding Bishopric, are focused on defining what the church "needs to be" in the future. The goal is not merely to keep the lights on, but to do so while faithfully being who God needs them to be in the world. This strategy involves: Fostering new communities of disciples committed to the church's mission. Engaging in social ministries and justice activities. Empowering new forms of leadership from younger generations. Innovating stewardship, including looking at different investment strategies and business ventures aligned with the church's mission. President Cramm concluded that success must be measured in faithfulness terms, rather than "worldly terms" like turning a profit or hitting a specific number of members in the pews. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Inclusion, Ordination, and the Gay Apostle Question The conversation also turned to the church's approach to LGBTQ+ inclusion, a topic that remains widely discussed both in the U.S. and within the global church. Community of Christ policy allows the World Conference to establish broad principles, while national or field conferences can weigh in on particulars based on local needs and discernment. This approach acknowledges that in some parts of the world, discussing inclusion topics can be life-threatening or illegal. When asked whether an openly gay apostle might be called under her administration, President Cramm emphasized a key distinction regarding ordination policy: Sexual Orientation is Not the Barrier: Cramm clarified that sexual ...

Send us a textWhat if the most radical form of freedom is simply waking up clear—and staying that way? Corey opens up about life on both sides of the bottle and what changed when he traded chaos for consistency: mornings that don't start in shame, a mind that doesn't spin stories, and relationships built on truth instead of excuses. It's a candid walk through the quiet wins that stack into a different life: reliability, emotional balance, and the kind of peace you can feel in your chest.We dig into how trust is earned back one action at a time and why predictability—once dismissed as boring—turns out to be a gift. Corey breaks down the physical reset of sobriety, from real sleep to steady energy, and how that stability unlocks self-worth that isn't tied to performance. We talk amends as responsibility, not a shortcut to forgiveness, and how consistency rewires identity. There's purpose here too: service to newcomers, reaching back with a steady hand, and rediscovering creativity that addiction numbed. Financial stability shows up as part of the change—paying bills, saving a bit, planning ahead—because peace also lives in the practical.By the end, gratitude has a new shape: not denial of pain, but a clear-eyed reframing that turns survival into living. If you're curious about the real benefits of recovery—clarity, honesty, purpose, emotional regulation, financial stability, creativity, and peace of mind—this conversation offers a map grounded in experience, not clichés. Listen, reflect, and share it with someone who needs to hear that freedom doesn't have to be loud to last.
