Today we are celebrating a psychiatrist who opened a private practice and paid off her student loans only a few years out of residency. She said she is very debt averse and poured every dollar she could to crushing the loans. Not only did she tackle her loans but she also opened a private practice at the same time. She wanted to provide the highest quality of care for her patience and believed private practice was the best way to do that. She also wanted the freedom and flexibility that comes from working for herself. Opening a private practice was scary but she never doubted her decision and has been super successful.

Today, we're so excited to share a powerful session from last year's Restore gathering, given by Astrid Tuminez, president of Utah Valley University.Astrid's story is truly extraordinary. She was born in a small village in the Philippines and raised in the slums of Iloilo City. Her journey has taken her from Catholic convent schools to Harvard and Wall Street to leading a major public university—and throughout, she's wrestled with what it means to belong and to find joy.Drawing from the Book of Mormon, Buddhist meditation, and the lives of the people who have shaped her, Astrid invites us into the practices that help her live with joy, even in the midst of complexity and change.We also want to acknowledge that this session was recorded just a few months before Astrid's beloved husband of 37 years, Jeff Tolk, passed away unexpectedly. Jeff was someone we admired deeply. He had a brilliant mind and a tender heart and we're holding Astrid and her family in our hearts during this season of unimaginable grief.Listening to this message now, with the weight of that loss, we have even more reverence and gratitude for the wisdom and light Astrid shared with all of us on the Restore stage. We think it's one you'll want to revisit again and again.Restore 2025 will be September 25-27 at UVU in Orem, Utah -- you can get tickets to join us at faithmatters.org/restore

That's, that's what it'll be.

The White House’s announcement Friday that it will impose hefty tariffs on imports from nearly 70 countries next week triggered the worst day on Wall Street in more than a month.

So why are media outlets still talking down the economy? And why is Chairman of the Federal Reserve Jerome Powell refusing to cut interest rates, despite earlier recession warnings that never materialized? Victor Davis Hanson breaks it all down on today's episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” “Remember that The Wall Street Journal, New York Times, Washington Post, and our main media organs all told us in May when Donald Trump was talking about art of the deal tariffs, … we were going to have high inflation, stagflation, bad job growth, static GDP, and a trade war along with a Wall Street collapse, basically a recession. Well, wall Street stock prices are at historical highs. Every one of those predictions was wrong. “If [Powell] is worried about a trade war, and tariffs and soft job growth, which was predictive but didn't happen, why don't you lower interest rates? And the fact is that if you look at the interest rates that he did cut right before the 2024 election and his all over the map, attitude toward interest rates today, there is no logic because if he's worried that the economy inflation might— it's gone up one 10th of an point and it's steaming and then he's going to what? Keep interest rates that high?”

Rob Armstrong is the writer who first coined the acronym in The TACO Trade, which stands for Trump Always Chickens Out, in a column back in April. He wasn't trying to go viral, much less have the acronym circulate throughout Wall Street and the media, much less have President Trump be asked about it. But that's what happened. Armstrong is the Unhedged columnist and podcaster at the Financial Times. He also had a prior career at a hedge fund, which abruptly ended in the Great Financial Crisis of 2008. He also has a PhD in philosophy, making him an unusual figure in the world of finance and economics journalism. The topics he writes about reflect this varied background. He and Cardiff reflect on the strangeness of coining a term that has such reverberations in a prominent national conversation, in this case the one surrounding President Trump's tariff strategy, and whether the trade itself still applies. They also discuss how the feedback loops created by the acronym represent the fundamental nature of markets and the ways that societal narratives get around these days. But the main part of their chat is about US markets at the moment. Are they in a bubble? Why has there not been more of a negative effect from tariffs? And why has the US dollar fallen — and stayed fallen — while US stocks have returned to all-time highs just this week? What should we make of the horrific returns on long-term Treasuries this decade? And are higher interest rates truly here to stay? They also discuss Rob's switch from working in finance to writing about it, and his recent column on Rene Girard and the mimetic rivalries that seem to define this political moment. Finally, they close with a surprising topic that Rob frequently also writes and speaks about: men's fashion.

Grant Cardone's $260M Real Estate Power Play (And How You Can Own a Piece)
The narrative unravels as elite institutions—from Wall Street to the intelligence community—face exposure for manipulating truth and undermining democratic accountability. In the first transcript, the media's recession predictions, driven by figures like JPMorgan's Jamie Dimon and amplified by anti-Trump financial pundits, are proven wrong as the economy thrives under tariffs and smart trade moves. In the second, the scope widens: whistleblower revelations, FBI cover-ups, and international censorship programs—many tied to figures like John Brennan and Democrat operatives—highlight a coordinated effort to silence dissent globally. As Trump fights back with aggressive tariffs and bold appointments, the establishment panics. These episodes connect the dots between media misinformation, weaponized agencies, and a censorship dragnet preparing to ensnare Americans if the power shifts again. The war for truth has gone global—and it's heating up.

Allegations by Donald Trump: Former President Donald Trump is quoted calling for an investigation into Nancy Pelosi, accusing her of using insider information to amass wealth through stock trading. He claims Pelosi has achieved returns “practically in the history of Wall Street” and suggests this is due to her access to non-public information. Financial Discrepancies Highlighted: Pelosi’s government salary is cited as $174,000/year, yet her net worth is reported to have grown from $114.7 million in 2018 to potentially $413 million by 2024. The file references sources like OpenSecrets, Investopedia, and The Times to support these figures. Paul Pelosi reportedly earned between $7.8 million and $42.5 million in 2024 from stock trades. Stock Performance: The Pelosi portfolio allegedly returned 54% in 2024, outperforming the S&P 500’s 25% gain. Notable trades included early investments in Nvidia and Palo Alto Networks, and timely sales of Microsoft and Visa. Pelosi’s Response: In a CNN interview with Jake Tapper, Pelosi deflects the insider trading question, emphasizing her focus on the 60th anniversary of Medicaid. She denies wrongdoing, stating: “I’m not into it. My husband is,” and accuses Trump of “projecting.” Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

Send us a textA kiss caught on camera, a relationship shattered in seconds. When the infamous "Kiss Cam Cheater" went viral, millions witnessed the raw, unfiltered moment betrayal trauma unfolds—leaving many of us wondering what happens when our deepest fears play out in public.Who better to guide us through this emotional wreckage than someone who's survived her own high-profile betrayal? Dr. Nadine Macaluso, psychotherapist and former wife of the real-life Wolf of Wall Street, joins us to unpack why this moment resonated so deeply with so many people. "Betrayal trauma cracks your soul," she explains. "It's one of the most painful relational experiences we can have on this planet."Through our conversation, Dr. Macaluso reveals the psychology behind betrayal—the emotional dysregulation, cognitive dissonance, and profound loss of trust that follows. We explore how people compartmentalize during affairs, why certain personalities feel entitled to risk everything for a thrill, and the power dynamics that often fuel infidelity. Most importantly, she shares a roadmap for healing whether your heartbreak happens privately or with the world watching."Trust your gut and get curious," Dr. Macaluso advises. While approximately 70% of relationships don't survive infidelity, about 30% do—especially when the betraying partner can truly acknowledge the pain they've caused without defensiveness. Drawing from both professional expertise and personal experience, she offers hope to anyone feeling shattered: "Healing is a process and it's not linear. It's one step forward, two steps back, and you're worth it."Ready to understand betrayal trauma and begin your healing journey? This episode provides both compassionate insight and practical tools for rebuilding trust—in others and in yourself.
