Vanishing: A Love Story, Documentary Feature Vanishing: A Love Story is a documentary about award-winning novelist Cai Emmons and her loving, open-hearted journey towards death. In 2021, at the age of 70, Cai was diagnosed with ALS. Taking place in 2022, during the last six-months Cai's life, the film is, first and foremost, a story about the agency of expression —having a voice to create a legacy in the world. "Sandra Luckow's 'Vanishing' offers an almost shockingly close-up view of a life well lived and arguably well ended. Focused raptly on the late author Cai Emmons, the film is documented from so deep within her home and intimate circle that at times it also seems to have been shot from inside her head. Emmons is the intellectual driver of Vanishing—but it's Luckow's principled humility before her subject, and before the inescapable realities of illness and death, that enable this film to begin in voicelessness and dissolution and end in eloquent affirmation. --Stuart Klawans, Film Critic, National Magazine Award winner for Reviews and Criticism —— Subscribe to the podcast: https://twitter.com/wildsoundpod https://www.instagram.com/wildsoundpod https://www.facebook.com/wildsoundpod —— Love for for you to try the Indy Film Festival AP. • Daily new film festival of the best new films from around the world.

Episode Summary In this episode of Business Coaching Secrets, hosts Karl Bryan and Rode Dog deliver a rapid-fire masterclass on wealth building, real estate investing, the changing landscape of AI and jobs, business valuation, and proven sales tactics for coaches. They break down critical frameworks, rules, and scripts—from cold calling motivation to legacy planning—with actionable insights designed to help business coaches and entrepreneurs drive real results. The show wraps with a signature "moment of Zen" on living and making decisions intentionally, drawing on lessons from legendary thinkers and practical experience. Key Topics Covered AI, Innovation, and the Future of Work Karl and Rode Dog examine the disruption, job loss, and eventual job creation AI consistently brings, outlining optimism as the most productive mindset for navigating change. The bell curve of innovation leading from disruption and layoffs, to new, more lucrative opportunities, is thoroughly unpacked. The Five Pillars of Wealth The hosts break down the essentials: income, taxes, savings, investing, and legacy. Tactical advice includes the critical importance of learning sales, mastering tax strategy, automating savings, setting investing rules, and passing on wisdom over just assets. Taxes and Relocation Decisions Insightful discussion about the pros and cons of moving states (e.g., from California to Florida) solely for tax reasons. Emphasizes the importance of family, environment, and purpose when making major life moves, not just financial considerations. Real Estate Principles That Build Wealth Golden rules: have rules before you buy, buy land not condos, avoid over-leverage, and—most powerfully—hold for the long-term to let compounding work. Advice includes "buy the smallest house on the biggest lot closest to downtown" and why the money is in waiting, not timing. Education, Schooling, and Real-World Business Success Debate on how the traditional school system often overlooks entrepreneurial skillsets like collaboration, risk-taking, critical thinking, and networking. Discussion on homeschooling and why it can be great for some but isn't a universal answer. Why Most Small Businesses Don't Sell The three key reasons: lack of profitability, systemization, and an owner-dependent business model. How to make your business a true asset and maximize its valuation using the five variables: sustainability, predictability, growth, threats, and scalability. In-House Marketing vs. Agency Use Critical look at entrepreneurs wanting to bring marketing in-house vs. sticking with a profitable agency. Strong recommendation to double down on strengths and let proven partners do their best work. Cold Calling and Sales Motivation Motivation mindset: focus on offering value, not just "getting a client." Step-by-step scripts, research tactics, and an activity framework (25 outreach messages, 3 meaningful convos daily) to secure real results. Mastering Communication as a Coach The 20/80 rule: the top communicators listen 80% of the time and direct with questions. Framework of 6 open-ended conversation starters that transform prospecting and client engagement. Moment of Zen: Decision-Making and Legacy The power of making big decisions only from a positive, optimistic state. Writing your own obituary as an exercise to define principles and guide intentional living and business-building. Notable Quotes "Message me because you have something to offer me, something to give me, something that's critical I know about, something to tell me… You're not fearful of cold calling, you're fearful of being judged." "If you can't make a hard decision quickly, you will struggle to help others make a hard decision quickly." "The money is not in the buying, the money is not in the selling, but the money is in the waiting." "When you are in a negative state, you see problems. When you're in a positive state, you see solutions." "Begin with the end in mind…That is a mental model and a very good one and powerful one, frankly." Actionable Takeaways Embrace an Optimistic Mindset: Choose the mental frame that lets you see opportunity and solutions during change or disruption. Implement the Five Pillars: Master sales, study tax law, automate saving, invest only by clear rules, and focus on passing wisdom—not just assets. Don't Move for Money Alone: Factor in environment, family, and happiness before making tax-driven relocations. Invest for the Long Run: Buy assets with potential and hold—compounding and patient "waiting" are the greatest wealth creators. Make Your Business Sellable: Build profitability, systematize, and reduce owner reliance—so it's a true asset, not just a job. Double Down on What Works: If your agency is delivering, don't self-sabotage by bringing everything in-house just to "save money." Be a Proactive, Assertive Connector: Consistent outreach (25 messages, 3 real convos daily) and leading with value make client acquisition inevitable. Master the Art of Asking: Use open-ended questions and listen more than you speak to stand out as a trusted advisor. Live and Decide with Intention: Write your own obituary—a clarifying exercise to set your compass for leadership, life, and legacy.

God Is Focused a Jesus Follower's Heart, and He Changes Their Thinking and Attitude Through a Change in Their Heart MESSAGE SUMMARY: God makes you a new creation through your new heart created by an indwelling of the Holy Spirit in your life. God is interested in your heart, and He wants you to have a righteous heart– God changes your thinking and your attitude through a change in your heart. In Romans 8:26-27, Paul describes the indwelling of the Holy Spirit in Jesus Followers resulting in a new person, with a new heart, in Jesus: “Likewise the Spirit helps us in our weakness. For we do not know what to pray for as we ought, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words. And he who searches hearts knows what is the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints according to the will of God.". As a Jesus Follower, you are salt and light, comes from your righteousness – not just in deed and appearance but, also, in your inner person -- your heart. TODAY'S PRAYER: Unclutter my heart, O God, until I am quiet enough to hear you speak out of the silence. Help me in these few moments to stop, to listen, to wait, to be still, and to allow your presence to envelop me. In Jesus' name, amen. Scazzero, Peter. Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Day by Day (p. 23). Zondervan. Kindle Edition. TODAY'S AFFIRMATION: Because of who I am in Jesus Christ, I will not be driven by Lust. Rather, I will abide in the Lord's Perfect Provision. “I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in Me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from Me you can do nothing.” (John 15:5). SCRIPTURE REFERENCE (ESV): Proverbs 3:1-7; Romans 2:29; Romans 8:26-28; Psalms 18a:1-10.

Can You Cultivate Genius?The question is: can you cultivate genius? What do you think?First, a quote from my mama, Caron McCloud. She says, “I decided early on that I mattered.”Today's episode shares how my mom Karen McCloud encouraged me to cultivate my genius, why I think it's important for women to learn to cultivate their genius, and how brainwave shifts can show us what we do not usually see — including a meditation to access the theta brainwave for your insights, as well as an exciting invitation that includes Amy Ahlers. Hint: it includes the genius we share about money, sex, and influence. So here we go.Let's talk about genius, my friends, and why it matters. First, a question: What would it take to be able to say, I am genius, without qualifying or needing to prove? Most of us don't think we are. This isn't about other people thinking you are, but about cultivating a genius space where fresh thoughts can arise.The term genius comes from the Latin verb gignere, meaning to beget, to produce, or to bring forth. This same root gives us the words generate and genetics. In Rome, your genius was the birth spirit that shaped your personality, guided your destiny, and protected you throughout life. And I can't help but think about the word genie being the root of genius.Very little space is given to the development of our innate genius, and this concerns me. We need more women living in the fullness of their power.But there's a problem. We might not know this is a choice — that we get to cultivate our genius. It may never occur to us that we have a genius to access at all, really. Most of us have never spent hours, let alone days, watching what truly wants to come through us: an insight, an innovation, a worldview built to actually design our lives and relationships.The drafting table Mama gave meI want to start with a personal story that even now kind of blows my mind. Let me take off my shoes now and step onto the ground as I remember this.My mother Karen McLeod was a genius. She encouraged me to write and recite poetry. She bought me a drafting table for my 13th birthday and told me, this is where you work out your ideas. Draw here, paint here, write here. She said, I want you to think as if the thing you're thinking about could be life-saving for yourself and for others. I want you to treat yourself as if you absolutely matter. And the world will be a different place unless you inhabit it with everything you're carrying.She'd send me to my room saying, go write a poem and don't come out until you have a draft. She taught me to treat my thinking as if it completely mattered — and as if I did.If she hadn't given me that framework to explore myself, I doubt the thought would have ever crossed my mind. Because it's audacious, isn't it? It is audacious to devote an hour or a day to your own genius just to see what's available to you.That is what I'm doing right now with two of my genius friends. We are in a sister mind, each quietly working on our own material, then discussing, then back to the drawing table for a 24-hour cycle. This — the cultivation of your genius — is what I've invited women to do for over 30 years. It's what I've built a long-term business and community on.What if our brilliant ideas are in the future? And what if that future is just a few minutes in the future, and accessible — like, right now?Why We Don't Go ThereThere are reasons we don't create the time to cultivate genius. Here are a few.Ego. We're taught not to have an ego. Not to get too big for our britches. Not to be too smart.Fear. We're warned that if people knew how much sacred medicine we're carrying, we could be a danger to ourselves or others.Worth. In the same breath, we're told we aren't worthy, and that there's no real value in cultivating our consciousness. Don't be too big — but be big enough.Those of us in the business world get another script entirely: be more masculine, hustle, grasp, win at all costs, even at cost to yourself. Experiences like hustle and win are almost a deadening place for genius. Genius doesn't grow in the hard ground of striving. It grows in a field of wildflowers, where you lay back and gaze at the sky and ask questions of your own consciousness.And I think the most obvious reason we don't go there, into the space of genius, is simpler. We don't know how. We haven't been shown. We've been prevented from it, and taught to devalue it.Here's how. Access flow state within. Focused, intentional inquiry. That is how. Focused, intentional creativity. That is how.A Little Brain ScienceLet me show you why. Here's a little of the brain science, because it's worth understanding. Our brains move through different electrical rhythms, and each one gives us access to a different kind of thinking.Most of our waking day runs on beta — the busybody, alert, task-managing state. This is the ground of usual day-to-day being. Beta is where we answer emails and cross things off lists. It's useful, but it's narrow. It can only show us a certain number of things, and we can come to think beta is the only place there is — just like we think we are only so smart, and that's how we're born. The issue isn't beta. It's in not knowing how to get out of it into new territory.When we soften and let the mind open, we can visit the bridge to alpha — the relaxed, imaginative, daydreaming state. This is the bridge. It's the gentle threshold between doing and receiving, the en route that takes us into possibility. We can feel the change in our body as our brain loosens its tight grasp on what there is to do and moves into presence.And just past that, theta — the slow, intuitive, dreamlike rhythm we touch as we fall into deep meditation and self-expression. Theta is where the subconscious becomes available to us by choice, where we can even dip a toe into the unconscious. This is where the eureka lives: the vision, the aha, the change we want to make in the world. It's so often conceived here, in expanded possibility.But can we get it back into beta? That's one of our questions.Here's the curious catch. That brilliant idea is conceived in theta, and then we have to carry it all the way back to beta — back to the day-to-day world of action steps. Many people cultivate a vision for years and never find the steps to ground it. So in our community, we travel into theta on purpose, and then we consciously bring that realm of information back into beta, so we can take decisive action on behalf of the vision.As Gertrude Stein puts it, being a genius takes a lot of time sitting around doing nothing. I just call that tea with the muse. It's the pause that makes the cultivation possible.A Ritual to Try TodayIf you want to try it today, here's a ritual.Sit quietly and look out a window. Pick a point as far away as you can see, and fix your gaze there. Pretend you can travel to that spot while staying exactly where you are. Let your breathing deepen and lengthen. Feel your belly soften, and the space between your eyebrows soften too. Let loose the grip, smooth the worry lines, and begin to listen to your inner world.Then state your intention three times: I am here to cultivate my genius. I am here to cultivate my genius. I am here to cultivate my genius.And then you pause. You just be. You just listen. If nothing comes, say, show me one thing I need to know today. And wait. It may take time. You may need to return to this for a week or two.Mama McLeod says this: keep looking at the stories that we tell, and the stories that we don't tell, and take responsibility for them. Create a context that's big enough to live a big life — and then live into that context. Context provides a theme, and it provides a perspective: a way of going about living our lives as a great adventure, and making choices about what we want that story to be. A context defines, and provides an identity to occur from.So the answer is yes. You can cultivate genius by choice. I do. You can too. Let's do it, and teach the others around us. I'm right here with you — in the heart, in the field, in the quantum now.P.S. — Keep your eyes out…I have exciting news. If you're a woman looking for a breakthrough in midlife — in money, sex, and influence — watch this space for an emergent invitation from me and Amy Ahlers, my incredible coach and BFF for the past 16 years.Amy and I have been working on a project behind the scenes to serve women entrepreneurs and those in corporate spaces, to claim their superpowers of prosperity, sexuality, identity, leadership, and intuition. It is a hybrid of virtual private one-on-one coaching and in-person gatherings — the ultimate mastermind, a council for powerful women. This is a dream of ours, and we're bringing it to you. We've been teaching together since 2012.Applications for Powerhouse are opening soon, and we begin in September.Thank you so much for tuning in to Tea with the Midnight Muse.Much love, Shiloh SophiaThis is a video from 10 years ago where you can hear Caron McCloud speaking about mattering.

Heart Opening Balance Flow — Complete Practice (61 min, preview 31 mins)A steady complete practice that combines heart opening, balance work, and twisting sequences into a flow that feels both expansive and focused. This class builds challenge gradually through standing stability and coordinated movement while creating plenty of space across the chest, shoulders, and front body.The energy feels grounded rather than dramatic. Heart opening is present throughout, but it's approached through steadiness and integration rather than intensity, creating a practice that feels supportive, spacious, and quietly uplifting.There's a strong thread of balance running through the class as well, asking for attention and presence without ever becoming overly technical or demanding.New class every Tuesday. 350+ full classes in the Unlimited Archive at JustGreatYoga.com
Have you ever felt like you've wandered too far from the path God intended for you? Perhaps choices, circumstances, or disappointments have taken you in a direction you never expected, leaving you wondering whether God can still use your life for His purposes. Yet God's grace has a remarkable way of meeting us where we are and redirecting our steps toward something greater.In this episode, Tracie and Abigail explore the life of hymn writer Helen Lemmel. Though her journey was marked by unexpected turns and difficult seasons, Helen's story is a powerful reminder that no one is beyond God's reach. When she turned her focus back to Christ, God used her life to leave a legacy that continues to encourage believers generations later. Her testimony reminds us that when we pivot in the right direction—and turn our eyes upon Jesus—God can transform our story into something that brings glory to Him and hope to others.If you know of someone who can be helped by listening to the Abundant Living Podcast, please share this episode with them.

Welcome to Steelers Morning Rush, our new daily short-form podcast with Alan Saunders, giving a longer perspective on a single news topic surrounding the Pittsburgh Steelers or the National Football League. Today, it's the Steelers plans for scouting the 2027 NFL Draft, which will be finalized next month. This time last year, it was clear that general manager Omar Khan was going to direct his staff toward prioritizing the quarterback position in the 2026 NFL Draft. It's not quite as clear this time around, but if the Steelers aren't looking hard at quarterbacks, what will they be seeking in the first round next April?

Jay Woods believes markets will see some pain as the tech sector pulls back and brings the S&P 500 (SPX) and Nasdaq 100 (NDX) with it. That said, he sees pockets of strength across the indices but they aren't getting headlines because tech weighs so heavily on markets. On the larger economic picture, Jay says Kevin Warsh "has his work cut out for him" with inflation at its highest level in recent years. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

The conflict in the Middle East has created severe disruption to shipping traffic through the Strait of Hormuz, taking roughly 20% of global supplies of liquefied natural gas (LNG) off the market. It has been a reminder that hundreds of millions of people rely on the international gas trade to heat our homes, fuel our industries and keep our lights on. And that trade is highly vulnerable to sudden shocks. In this special episode, recorded at Wood Mackenzie's Gas, LNG and the Future of Energy Conference in London, host Ed Crooks speaks with industry leaders and experts about the forces that are changing the gas business. Security of supply and affordability are now the top priorities for policymakers and business leaders around the world. But climate change has not gone away, and greenhouse gas emissions are going to be an increasingly significant issue in the future. Balancing those three imperatives is the trilemma that the energy industry has to solve.First, Ed talks to Anita Odedra, of the LNG platform MidOcean Energy, to discuss the critical role of geography. When energy supplies from the Middle East are disrupted, assets elsewhere in the world take on a greater importance. Joining Anita is Dr Valentina Kretzschmar, of Wood Mackenzie, who puts the shock from the Iran war into the context of a decelerating energy transition in the West. She walks through the EU Methane Emissions Regulation and why it is so hard to work out exactly how much escaped methane is associated with a cargo of imported LNG. And she talks about how the real threat to fossil fuels is cheap Chinese clean energy technology. Arturo Gallego, of Centrica Energy, is another industry leader who is attempting to balance consumers' immediate demands for reliable, affordable energy with long-term climate goals. He warns that if the Strait of Hormuz stays closed, Europe will struggle to find the gas it needs next winter, and high prices may be necessary to destroy demand. He makes the case for LNG as a transition fuel and for tackling greenhouse gas emissions step by step.TJ Conway, of the think-tank RMI, closes on a practical note. His work has focused on the technical solutions that make the EU methane regulation workable. He argues that his proposed framework could allow the EU to continue importing US gas, while still sending a signal that methane performance matters.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

It's Time to Get Your Mind Right and Your Thoughts Focused • The Todd Coconato Show Website: www.PastorTodd.org To Give: www.ToddCoconato.com/give 10 Keys to Winning the Battle of the Mind We are living in one of the most distracted generations in human history. Never before have people had access to so much information, yet so many are confused. Never before have people been so connected, yet so many feel isolated. The battle for the believer today is largely a battle for the mind. One of the greatest examples of this in Scripture is Caleb. Twelve spies entered the Promised Land. All twelve saw the same giants, the same walls, and the same obstacles. Ten came back filled with fear. Two came back filled with faith. The difference wasn't what they saw. The difference was how they thought. God is looking for believers who have a Caleb mindset in a generation of fearful spies.

Episode Overview In this episode of the John Kitchens Coach Podcast Experience, John sits down with Claire Gogan, leader of one of Southwest Florida's fastest-growing real estate teams. Claire shares her journey from solo agent to leading a 45-agent organization, the painful lessons she learned along the way, and how agents can create leverage without sacrificing the life they're trying to build. Whether you're a solo agent considering your first hire or a team leader trying to scale without burning out, this conversation delivers practical insights on leadership, hiring, team structures, personal development, and building a business that supports your vision. In This Episode, You'll Learn: Why every successful agent eventually needs leverage The difference between building a high-paid job and building a true business How Claire transitioned from solo producer to leading a 45-agent team The three primary team models and who each one is best suited for Why hiring the right people matters more than hiring quickly How personality assessments can improve hiring decisions The role coaching played in Claire's growth journey Why conflict resolution is one of the most important leadership skills How to determine if you're meant to build a team—or simply build leverage The mindset shifts required to survive the difficult early stages of growth How AI is impacting team structure, leadership, and the future of real estate Key Takeaways Get Clear Before You Build Too many agents build businesses based on what they see others doing instead of what they actually want. Before choosing a team model, ask yourself: What kind of life do I want? Do I love selling? Do I enjoy leading people? Am I building freedom or creating another job? Clarity must come before growth. There Is More Than One Way to Build a Team Claire breaks down three common team structures: 1. Small Leverage Team Perfect for agents who love selling Built around an admin, showing partner, and listing support Highly profitable and lean 2. High-Service Team Higher standards and stronger support systems Focused on agent development and market share Typically built around listings and leadership 3. Mega Team Large-scale organizations with 100+ agents Lower profit margins but greater opportunities through ancillary businesses like mortgage, title, insurance, and investments Hire for Strengths, Not Similarities One of Claire's biggest breakthroughs came when she stopped hiring people she liked and started hiring people whose strengths complemented her weaknesses. The right people create leverage. The wrong people create more work. Leadership Requires Letting Go Great people don't want to be micromanaged. If you want to scale: Build systems Create accountability Trust your team Allow people to make mistakes and grow Control limits growth. Failure Is Part of the Process Every team leader faces difficult seasons. Claire shares stories of: Bad hires Turnover Overwhelm Questioning whether to continue The difference between those who succeed and those who quit often comes down to one thing: Staying in the game long enough to learn. Conflict Resolution Is a Leadership Multiplier The ability to navigate difficult conversations impacts: Leadership Sales Negotiations Recruiting Team culture Learning how to handle conflict with respect and confidence can improve every area of your business. Abundance Beats Scarcity One of Claire's most important leadership principles: Lead from abundance. Scarcity creates fear-based decisions. Abundance creates opportunities, growth, and better leadership.

In this episode of Business Coaching Secrets, Karl Bryan and Rode Dog deliver a candid, tactical breakdown of real challenges and opportunities facing business coaches and entrepreneurs today—everything from the psychology of wealth to the pitfalls of amateur AI solutions, strategies for business acquisitions, and why it's not about building the biggest business, but creating the best life. Listeners get a rapid-fire, insight-packed session including practical frameworks, mental hacks, key investing decisions, and mindset shifts for riding new technology and economic waves. Key Topics Covered The Danger and Opportunity of "Enough" and Respect Karl explores how true respect in business comes not from building a massive company, but from building and keeping wealth—with a warning against letting ego and the endless chase for "more" derail your happiness or health. Old and rich is rare; sustainable, strategic growth is what matters (03:24). Investing Strategies: 401k vs. Private Investments A stark look at the limitations of locking your money into traditional retirement vehicles like 401ks, why private investments and business ownership offer more flexibility and upside, and a reminder that taxes are (and will remain) your biggest expense (06:11). Should You Start or Buy a Business? Karl offers a data-driven analysis: most new businesses fail in the first two years, but acquiring an existing, five-year-old business helps you "hop over" that danger zone. He likens acquisition strategies of icons like Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg to the smart moves coaches and their clients should consider today (08:09). Billionaire Mindsets: Ownership, Leverage, and Trends Billionaires use other people's money, time, and abilities; they don't repeat the "if you want it done right, do it yourself" mantra. They build businesses for the long haul, where they could sell, but don't want to. The savvy play is to spot and skate to where trends—like AI—are going (11:07). AI: Gold Rush and Landmines The duo discusses how AI is reshaping business at breakneck speed. While pros create game-changing platforms, most small business owners risk costly mistakes by using amateurs—leading to a looming "clean up" industry. Big opportunity for coaches who can help clients navigate AI safely, but also major risks in legal, health, and finance fields if things go wrong (13:14). Jobs, AI, and The Future of Work Drawing on history's take on disruptive tech (tractors, the internet, even frozen food!), Karl predicts AI will ultimately create more jobs than it destroys—as routine roles get eliminated, new high-value ones will emerge. Optimism, adaptability, and learning new skills are key (18:13). The Real Problem with Taxing Billionaires Tax rich people? They move. But the bigger issue is government accountability—before arguing for higher taxes, demand better results from the billions already being collected (21:05). Mental and Wealth Hacks for Coaches and Clients Practical neuroscience: why overthinking is a trap, how your brain's "modes" influence money decisions, how to use open loops in sales, and why 1% improvement each day is the secret to transformation (25:05). Optimism, Resilience, and Using AI as YOUR Tool Karl shares how he teaches his daughter (and his clients) that AI isn't a threat if you own your learning and approach. If you improve 1% a day, AI becomes your ally—not your competitor (34:21). Notable Quotes "The ultimate respect is paid not to those who make it, but to those who make it and keep it." "Old and rich—those two words seldom come together." "Billionaires use other people's money, other people's time, and other people's abilities." "AI is the wild west right now; a big opportunity is coming for professionals to clean up all the amateur AI messes." "Overthinking is like running a mental race with no finish line—you feel like you're moving but you get nowhere." "Your brain isn't a system to try and control. It's a system to learn to understand and manipulate in your favor." Actionable Takeaways • Define Your Finish Line: Don't just chase "more"—get clear on what you actually want, set boundaries on the size and shape of your business and life. • Question Conventional Investing: Don't lock up all wealth in 401ks; get financially literate about taxes, private investing, business, and real estate. • Consider Acquisitions Over Startups: For many coaches and business owners, buying a proven business is lower risk and can accelerate growth compared to starting from scratch. • Use AI Wisely—But Hire Pros: Encourage clients to leverage AI, but only with qualified, professional support—especially in regulated or high-risk spaces. • Embrace Optimism and Consistent Learning: Adopt an optimistic mindset about technology and economic shifts; reinforce that 1% improvement per day (over a year) yields massive cumulative growth. • Leverage Open Loops in Sales: Use curiosity and anticipation to drive sales conversations. Open loops keep prospects engaged and create desire for your solutions. • Trust Neuroplasticity: It's never too late for you—or your client—to learn new skills, increase organization, and rewire for success.

I want to alert you, so you don’t miss out on expert analysis and insider perspectives from my guests who provide tips that can help you uplift the community, improve your financial planning, motivation, or advice on how to be a successful entrepreneur. Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Brett Chestnut. Managing Director of Northwestern Mutual Goodwin, Wright Gwinnett. The conversation centers on Brett’s mission as a financial leader, his journey from engineering to financial planning, his commitment to mentoring, and his focus on expanding diversity in the financial services industry. Brett describes how he transitioned from engineering in 2015 to financial planning because he wanted to help people regain the ability to dream—not just survive. He discusses his work in recruiting diverse advisors, supporting career‑shifting professionals, mentoring, and educating people on foundational financial decision‑making. The interview also explores money mindsets, budgeting, the challenges of building wealth in communities of color, and the often‑overlooked emotional side of money. Brett emphasizes starting with the basics, not skipping steps (e.g., jumping straight to cryptocurrency), and building strong financial foundations. Rushion repeatedly highlights Brett as a powerful brand and role model, underscoring the importance of Black leadership in financial fields and the role of representation in increasing trust and access. Purpose of the Interview The interview’s purpose is to: 1. Introduce Brett Chestnut as a trusted financial leader Rushion aims to elevate Brett’s visibility as a Black managing director in financial services—an industry where representation has traditionally been limited. 2. Educate listeners on financial empowerment Brett provides practical, relatable guidance on budgeting, investing, career transitions, and developing financial discipline. 3. Highlight Northwestern Mutual’s diversity initiatives Brett explains how the company is intentionally investing in diverse advisors and underserved markets. 4. Inspire career‑based and financial self‑reflection He encourages people to examine their spending habits, consider new career paths, and align decisions with long-term goals. 5. Promote mentorship and community uplift Both Brett and Rushion stress the transformative power of mentorship and generational investment. Key Takeaways 1. Financial empowerment starts with awareness Brett urges everyone to analyze their last 2–3 months of spending to understand what their habits really prioritize. 2. You must “choose your hard” Saving and planning may be difficult now, but the alternative is harder later. Financial success requires discipline, not magic formulas. 3. Wealth building is emotional as much as logical Money connects to family, relationships, self‑worth, stress, and confidence. Advisors must understand clients emotionally, not just mathematically—especially women and diverse communities. 4. Don’t skip steps (especially with investing and crypto) Many want to “get rich fast,” but Brett warns that skipping foundational steps (budgeting, savings, retirement planning) leads to confusion and poor decisions. 5. Mentorship works only with real relationship True mentorship requires understanding someone’s full life story, not just giving advice. 6. Representation matters in financial services Northwestern Mutual is investing heavily in diverse advisors not just for optics, but because entire markets have been historically underserved. 7. Closing the wealth gap requires generational strategy One generation must be willing to be selfless, disciplined, and intentional with assets to move future generations forward. 8. Brett sees his work as multiplying impact By developing new advisors and helping create “15 millionaires,” he hopes to create compounding community uplift. Notable Quotes On financial empowerment “I want people to dream again. We’re not dreaming no more—we’re living because of obligation.” “When we’re born we look like our parents, but when we die, we look like our decisions.” On career purpose “I help people who are successful but career‑disturbed. They want more.” On money habits “Look at your last three months of spending. Your money tells you what your real priorities are.” On investing and crypto “People want to skip steps… going from no savings straight to crypto.” “If you don’t understand it, maybe it’s not time for you to invest in it.” On mentorship “To give someone feedback without relationship is harassment.” “Let me hear your story… mentorship starts with knowing the inner person.” On diversity and empowerment “Their growth strategy is diversity… whole markets haven’t even been called on yet.” On community and identity “We’re special… if we regain that confidence and approach the marketplace with courage, everything changes.” On wealth-building reality “You have to choose your hard. Hard now or hard later.” #SHMS #STRAW #BESTSupport the show: https://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
