Today, Ben plays lone host for the first time as we welcome Alex Edmans to the show. Alex is a Professor of Finance at London Business School as well as an accomplished speaker, author, investment banker, and financial advisor. To start, Alex describes his involvement in the formation of a new law in the UK before defining ‘misinformation' and where confirmation bias fits in. Then, we assess the impact severity of confirmation bias, biased search versus biased interpretation, the role of generative AI in confirmation bias, and the levels of susceptibility within confirmation bias. We also explore the role of black-and-white thinking in concealing the truth, Alex's Ladder of Misinference as seen in May Contain Lies, the 10,000-hour rule and other famous statements of misinformation, and how the idea of a narrative may influence how people interpret and misinterpret facts. We end with how to guard against the plague of data mining in research, data as evidence and what this implies for evidence in financial economics, and Alex shares helpful advice for determining truth in any circumstance.

“Last words I ever told him was I love him and keep fighting. So that's what I'm gonna live by from now on, just keep fighting, keep going no matter the circumstance but just keep on going.” Jack Bech We try to find the right words to capture the impact and emotion of this episode, but this is one, that when you listen to it, you'll understand how rare and special of a human Jack Bech is and why any NFL team who drafts him, will instantly be better for it. Whether you're an athlete, a dreamer, or someone rebuilding from a loss, this episode is a reminder: the pivot isn't the end — it's where growth begins. Ryan, Channing and Fred visit Lafayette, Louisiana, home of the Bech family and sit with Jack at the place his football career all started, St. Thomas More Catholic High School. Recent tragedy struck his family as his older brother, Tiger, was a victim of the Bourbon Street New Year's Eve attack. Jack opens up on the horrific moments of that night as he reflects on losing his brother who he idolized in every aspect from football to his faith to being his best friend since he was a young boy. In a special moment, he reveals something that he hasn't publicly shared yet about losing his brother and why now is the right time to share, With Jack projected to be a day two pick in the upcoming NFL draft, he shares that NFL teams are getting a two-for-one special as he is no longer just playing for him, but his brother too. As a wide receiver, his football journey has been anything but linear. From LSU to TCU, Jack opens up about the highs, the heartbreaks, and the headspace it takes to bet on yourself when the world starts doubting you. Coming off a dominant final year in college ball, Jack shares how he's turned grief into grit—navigating injuries, transfers, and the pressure of expectations while holding tight to his love for the game. His family's heartbreak is added-fuel towards fulfilling his dream of a long successful NFL career and names a few star wide receivers he admires and models his game after from Cooper Kupp to LSU friends Ja'Marr Chase, Justin Jefferson and Malik Nabers, taking pieces of their style to craft into his own. Jack is ready for wherever his journey takes him next and his guardian angel will be there to join him in any NFL city he calls home, and if you don't believe him, just watch. The Pivot Family will be rooting for Jack and his family this weekend as his football fate is determined. Don't forget to subscribe and comment below. Learn more about your ad choices.

Today, we're diving into a powerful and ancient concept—theRefiner's Fire. Now, if you've been with me for past episodes, you know that we've talked a lot about how struggle isn't just something to survive—it's something toharness. Whether it was in the episode on overcoming fear or building resilience, we've seen time and again that the challenges we face are shaping us into stronger, more capable individuals.But today, we're going even deeper. Because theRefiner's Fire isn't just about making it through difficulty—it's about beingtransformed by it. It's about using life's most intense moments to burn away what's unnecessary and reveal somethingmore pure, more refined, and more powerful than before.So if you're in a season of struggle, if you feel like you're being tested, if January 2025 was the longest January of your life, if you're wondering how to find purpose in the pain—this episode is for you.SHOW NOTES & LINKS:Join The Forge!

I wanted to create an episode normalizing the anxiety most of us carry early in our therapy careers. I used to think that I wasn't supposed to feel anxious, so when the anxiety showed up I made every effort to eliminate it. I interpreted my anxiety as a sign that maybe I wasn't ready to be a therapist, or maybe that my anxiety disorder was returning. But now, looking back, some anxiety while we're practicing therapy with real therapy clients makes absolute sense. If we focus on normalizing the anxiety rather than fighting it, it might help the anxiety stay at a manageable level. Of course, this is just my perspective and opinion. I'd love to hear your perspective in the comments! Thank you to Paubox for sponsoring this episode. Paubox makes HIPAA-secure email easy and streamlined.

Send us a textToday's episode is a special one as I had the chance to interview Dr. David Yeager, professor of psychology at University of Texas at Austin and a co-founder of the Texas Behavioural Science and Policy Institute. Dr. Yeager is widely recognized for his groundbreaking research alongside the inspiring Dr. Carol Dweck, the author of the brilliant book Mindset: The New Psychology of Success, and Dr. Angela Duckworth, who authored the very impactful book Grit: The Power of Passion and Perseverance, and well-known psychologist and researcher Dr. Greg Walton from Stanford. Together, they've developed short but impactful interventions that shape adolescent behaviors in areas like motivation, engagement, healthy eating, bullying, stress, and mental health.Dr. Yeager has consulted for major organizations including Google, Microsoft, Disney, and the World Bank, as well as advising for the White House and governments in California, Texas, and Norway. His work has been featured in The New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, Scientific American, CNN, Fox News, the Guardian, The Atlantic and many more.In our conversation today, we dive into his latest book, 10-25: The Science of Motivating Young People. This insightful book reveals the conditions necessary to empower young people to make better choices and achieve greater success in their lives.Our discussion not only covers the key themes in his book, but we also explore Dr. Yeager's personal experiences in life and the deeper significance behind his work. If you're a parent, teacher, coach, or leader, you'll find tremendous value in what David shares. He offers profound wisdom on how we can authentically support 10 to 25-year-olds, helping them reach their fullest potential and find genuine success in their lives.Dr. Yeager's book challenges the common myths that young people nowadays are apathetic, entitled, unmotivated and lazy. Instead, he encourages us to reframe this narrative and adopt proactive mentoring strategies that empower youth to contribute positively to their communities and the world. This shift, as we know, is essential for the betterment of our society.I hope you leave this episode not only wanting to grab a copy of his invaluable book 10-25: The Science of Motivating Young People, but also inspired to change how you interact with important young people in your life in order to bring out their best.Thank you for tuning in!

I have a 21-year-old son named Kraig who was diagnosed with autism in the year 2005, at the age of 2.5. His diagnosis changed my life and my career path, so we're talking about autism today. After I share some background information, I “dispense” 10 lessons I learned from raising a child with autism. Create a vision for your child's future. Keep an open mind. Think ability first. Embrace diversity, equity, and inclusion. Don't underestimate the ordinary. Discover your “gifts of autism.” Take care of yourself. Embrace disruption. Be a leader. Save what you love.

I created this episode for pharmacy professionals in America raising a child with autism because I'm an American pharmacist raising a child with autism. You can read about stats and definitions online, but to find out how autism impacts a pharmacist Mom or a family, you should be listening to people like me. If you're raising a child with autism, you will be able to relate even if you're not a pharmacy professional. I wish someone would have shared their stores with me in 2005 when my son was diagnosed.

Learn How You Can Develop ‘Grit' and Why You Need It to Achieve Your Goals! Scarlett's guest for this episode is Angela Duckworth, author of Grit: The Power of Passion and Perseverance. Angela describes grit as having what some researchers call an”ultimate concern”– a goal you care about so much that it gives meaning to almost everything you do. Grit is holding steadfast to that goal even when you fall down and when progress toward that goal is halting or slow. Scarlett and Angela discuss growing hope because a growth mindset leads to optimistic self-talk that then leads to perseverance over adversity. Scarlett and Angela infuse the Choose Love Formula into the extensive research Angela has dedicated herself to on grit and personal success. This includes having the courage to find what you enjoy, thinking of something you are grateful for to stay positive and strengthen what you want to master, finding a deeper purpose greater than yourself, and having compassion in action which is doing something, not just feeling it. Hope is when we let our pain go and that is strengthened by practicing forgiveness. All of the Choose Love formula values (courage+gratitude+forgiveness+compassion-in-action) lead to the grittiness required to achieve your goals. Angela Duckworth is an academic and psychologist focusing on achievement, researcher and author of Grit: The Power of Passion and Perseverance. She is co-founder of Character Lab, a nonprofit whose mission is to advance scientific insights that help children thrive. She is also the Rosa Lee and Egbert Chang Professor at the University of Pennsylvania and faculty co-director of the Penn-Wharton Behavior Change for Good Initiative.

Guest: Angela Duckworth, professor at the University of Pennsylvania and author of Grit: The Power of Passion and Perseverance“There's got to be a cost” when you pursue your passions, says University of Pennsylvania professor Angela Duckworth; in fact, the word “passion” comes from the Latin word for “suffering.” But that doesn't mean that gritty people are unhappy. After the time needed for sleep, daily exercise, friends, and family, Dr. Duckworth explains, “what's left is more than 40 hours.” Informed by her research and her own happiness, she tries to discourage her students from settling for a 9 to 5 life: “There's so many people that exemplify a life of dedication, and hard work, and of happiness, and humor, and friends, and family, that I think we should tell young people, ‘Look, don't assume that's not possible.'”In this episode, Angela and Joubin discuss being punctual, Danny Kahneman, AP Calculus, moving the finish line, teaching grit to children, Arthur Ashe, Diana Nyad, passion and sacrifice, hiring gritty people, “change your situation,” Marc Leder and Rodger Krouse, Invictus, ChatGPT, neural autopilot, and Steve Jobs.In this episode, we cover:“I have a thing with time” (01:36)Being the GOAT (06:37)Mr. Yom (09:27)Chef Marc Vetri (14:15)The Devil Wears Prada (16:03)Talking about grit (18:12)Satisfaction, loneliness, and happiness (20:24)Success as a journey (28:23)The cost of hard work (32:52)Angela's 70-hour work week (36:31)Charisma and loving what you do (40:55)Why high achievers have supportive partners (47:07)The next book (55:25)Pick the right market (57:45)Therapy questions (59:53)The Incredible Hulk vs. James Bond (01:02:45)Automating decisions (01:05:43)What “grit” means to Angela (01:09:39)Links:Connect with AngelaTwitterLinkedInAdditional reading:Redefining Success: Adopt the Journey Mindset to Move ForwardBuy Grit: The Power of Passion and PerseveranceConnect with JoubinTwitterLinkedInEmail: grit@kleinerperkins.com Learn more about Kleiner PerkinsThis episode was edited by Eric Johnson from LightningPod.fm

It's the beginning of December, and if you're like me, you're trying to figure out last-minute gifts. When my kids were growing up, I would always have a pile of books next to their stockings. The entire time I've been raising my kids, I've been trying to instill a love of books in them. One way I did that was to get them lots of books each Christmas. It was just easier to put a big pile of books next to their stocking rather than wrap them all up. So, I thought today that I would share some of the books that I have read this year because if I left it open to all of the books that I've read in the youth or young adult section, it would just take too long. I added a couple of classics in, too. I've been reading some young adult books with my students this year that have really stood out for me. I want to share those with you to give you some ideas for books that you wouldn't think of reading because most of these are books I didn't read with my own kids. Enjoy!

Father Len invites us to grapple with the virtues and character we value, permit, model and promote and the effect they have on us and those around us. Support Wrestling with God Productions: https://www.GiveSendGo.com/WWGProductions Highlights, Ideas, and Wisdom Culture over time is the most important force in shaping our identity. When an entire community prizes certain things, these things just seep into our pores. Our emotions and values are very infectious. They move through a community faster than a virus. Change happens, for better or worse, when entire communities unite around virtues and character they value. There's undeniable proof that an individual's character and values effect all of society. We take on the values of the communities to which we belong. Virtues and character that are valued by a community are inherited by the community's children. If we want to change the world, we have to change our hearts. We are the culture. We are the system. What impedes us empowers us. Failure and struggle cause the hero in every hero story to become a hero. Grit is frequently a greater predictor of success than talent. Grit or fortitude is a gift of the Holy Spirit. You need grit to become a spiritual person. It takes grit to forgive when you've been wounded. It takes grit to become prudent and know how and when to hold your tongue. It takes grit to become patient. We can lose our grit when life is good. Grit is like a muscle. You're not born with it. You train yourself into it. “Grit: The Power of Passion and Perseverance” by Angela Duckworth “Democracy in America” by Alexis De Tocqueville Beatrice Webb Patrick Lencioni What virtues and character do you value, permit, model and promote and how do they match up with the values of the communities to which you belong and, importantly, what are you going to do if they don't? We all have a big stake in our community's culture and the effect it has on us and those around us.

It's time to head back to school and find a learning routine groove. What books have caused you to change your life? Join us as we discuss books that schooled us and caused a significant shift in our lives. “It strengthens thy heart to do a hard thing” is a powerful quote from A Door in the Wall by Marguerite de Angeli. A cripple boy learns how to survive despite his hardships in this unique novel, includes lessons for kids and adults alike! Jennifer L. Scott's books: Lessons from Madame Chic, At Home with Madame Chic, and Polish Your Poise with Madame Chic describe what the author learned living abroad with a family in France. She also has a TedTalk on the 10 item capsule wardrobe. Loads of lessons on living with intentionality. The Count of Monte Cristo provided countless lessons: patience, wisdom, grit, learning how to read people, asking the right questions and, of course, stamina. This book illustrates over and over that people were and still are perplexing no matter what century or country we are in. Anna Karenina was a confidence booster! Our first Russian novel will long be remembered. What an intriguing opening! “Happy families are all alike; every unhappy family is unhappy in its own way.” People Fuel had a plethora of lessons such as: Be Present, Convey the Good, Provide Reality, and Call to Action. We need people but we need to set boundaries to deal with them effectively, the author explains asking clarifying questions. The book, Boundaries, packs a punch in this area as well. We are limited, so we must set limits and uphold them in order to thrive. What a mindset changer Unoffendable by Brant Hansen was! We learned how to practice overlooking an offense by giving grace. It totally reframed our thinking, kind of like swimming upstream. Living for God not for self was also the theme in Goliath Must Fall. We learned we aren't David in the story, Jesus is, He is our conqueror. The Tech-Wise Family was a recent read that gave many suggestions to help families be present and live creatively. By making a simple change you can make an upgrade! We are image-bearers to a God that is the ultimate creator, we need creative outlets. We should never consume more than we create. The Gift of Failure explained how learning that comes with challenge is stored more effectively! We should parent for tomorrow, not just for today. The Last Green Valley was an unbelievable journey back to WW2. Times were so hard they were forced to eat grass! The protagonist's wonderful line can help us all. “I used to think life happened to me but now I know life happened for me.” Grit: The Power of Passion and Perseverance by Angela Duckworth taught us to stick with hard things and never quit on a bad day. Mindset by Carol Dweck pairs well with Grit. When readers see the fixed and growth mindsets playing out it is easy to choose wisely. We have to rethink our vocabulary, switching out “You're so smart” for a much more beneficial “Great effort” “Way to keep trying even when it is hard, it gets a bit easier every time”. The Five Love Languages of Children included a wellhouse of information in filling the love tanks of our children. A simple questionnaire is included to guide parents in discovering their child's love language. Kids with a full love tank are less likely to act out and in turn will make better choices. Last but not least, The Read-Aloud Handbook by: Jim Trelease is a wonderful resource for parents that want to have a nightly read-aloud time with their kids, not all good books make great read-alouds. It is a huge help in creating a treasured memories in the lives of your children.

She digs into Duckworth's book and research and applies Brené Brown's concepts of shame, vulnerability, and imperfection to grit.
