Podcasts about key topics what

About eight years ago, we had a client—let’s call her Alison. She was in her late 30s and doing great in her career. Her income was picking up. We had thought about the best way for her to save her money for the things she wanted to do, among which was to leave her high-stress job before the age of 65. One day I got a text. Her husband had died. Her whole plan had gone sideways.   In financial planning, we focus on planning for your future. We talk a lot about what you want to do, what you enjoy, and what you dream about. But we also have to talk about what to do if things go wrong. We’re no stranger to this. We’ve all just lived through 2020, after all. We know that things can go terribly wrong, and we know people (perhaps ourselves included) who have suffered horrible tragedies.   Talking about your future is usually fun, even when discussing the what-ifs. It’s easy to list the what-ifs, because they all seem so detached from where we are right now. We almost believe that tragedy can never become our reality. Until it does.   Listen in and learn the four steps to take in case your financial plan goes wrong, and why it literally pays to redefine how we view change.   Key Topics: What should you actually do when the plan blows up? (3:24) Step One: Do nothing (5:25) Step Two: Find a support group or other people to talk to (08:36) Step Three: Preserve your flexibility (11:53) Step Four: Address the life decisions before the money decisions (13:45) Remember, we don’t create financial plans; we do financial planning (16:30) “In the midst of these changes, disruptions, and upsets, be at peace with your finances.” (18:12) The real purpose of the emergency fund (20:58)   If you like what you’ve been hearing, we invite you to subscribe on your favorite platform and leave us a review.

How do you deal with adversity? Adversity is a hard thing, it has many colors, shapes, and sizes, but the common thread among those who rise about it is they persevere. They find a way despite the challenges they are faced.  Scott from the Living Adaptive podcast shares stories of perseverance and how people find a way. His guests learned to ask questions like, what does this make possible in my life, what can I learn from this, is their a silver lining.  Hope is a powerful tool in life, and the Living Adaptive podcast does some fantastic work inspiring a better way through life. One where it is not about how life is happening to you, but for you.   Key Topics: What brought Scott to creating this podcast (2:32) Out of all the media formats available, what made podcasting special (3:51) Podcasting can open so many doors, what doors did it open for Scott, and where has it taken him (5:36) What guests have had the most significant impact on Scott’s journey (6:15) Podcasting is often about storytelling, what stories have shaped Scott the most over the years (9:17) Building a strong community around your podcast (10:00) What makes the Range of Motion project unique and the featured charity of this episode (12:32) For others starting a podcast, what lessons has Scott learned (15:41) Website link: https://www.livingadaptive.com/ (https://www.livingadaptive.com/) Podcast Links: Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/living-adaptive/id1239821155 (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/living-adaptive/id1239821155) Google: https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9saXZpbmdhZGFwdGl2ZS5saWJzeW4uY29tL3Jzcw==d (https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9saXZpbmdhZGFwdGl2ZS5saWJzeW4uY29tL3Jzcw==d) Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0rfd6jP0n4kZ8mpJQd1zzv (https://open.spotify.com/show/0rfd6jP0n4kZ8mpJQd1zzv) Charity: Range of Motion (https://www.rompglobal.org/) Donation: https://www.rompglobal.org/donate/ Social Links Twitter: https://twitter.com/living_adaptive (https://twitter.com/living_adaptive) Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/livingadaptive/ (https://www.facebook.com/livingadaptive/) Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/living_adaptive/?hl=en (https://www.instagram.com/living_adaptive/?hl=en) Thanks for Listening!

Do you consider yourself as having a disability? This episode of Causepods highlights a unique perspective, one where we take a look at the question "do you have a disability?" Kurt presents a view that, typically, most people will not identify as someone who has a disability unless you receive a rating from the government.  To identify as someone with a disability means you have less abilities than others. Kurt's podcast takes that idea of less, flips it on its head, and says; let's not focus on what you don't have, but let's focus on what we do have.  We all have abilities, and we all have disabilities that are less great than others. Not everyone has the ability to make a slam dunk in basketball, but we don't choose to label ourselves as disabled. We just simply say we are not at good.  An episode rich in perspective, insights, hope for a better way of thinking on a globally important topic.  Key Topics: What is the back story in starting a podcast on the issue of disability (1:14) How to reframe the question, "do you have a disability?" (3:42) Being the voice for a cause that you don't identify as (5:45 ) How did a 15-year journey lead up to starting this podcast (7:27) Why is empathy towards each other so hard as a society (10:08) Where does someone begin to create change on such a challenging issue to move the needle (13:21) When it came to podcasting, what compelled Kurt to get the message out (15:56) What struggles did Kurt have to overcome to get his podcast launched (18:00) Looking back, what are the memorable moments of leading this cause (21:35) What made The Onward and Upward Foundation the charity of choice for this episode (23:43) For others looking to start a cause-focused podcast, what is Kurt's advice to them (27:40) Website link: https://www.transformupodcasts.com/show/the-world-of-ability-podcast-show/ (https://www.transformupodcasts.com/show/the-world-of-ability-podcast-show/) Podcast Links: Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/id1533833388 (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/id1533833388) Google: https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuc3ByZWFrZXIuY29tL3Nob3cvNDUyMDYwMy9lcGlzb2Rlcy9mZWVk (https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuc3ByZWFrZXIuY29tL3Nob3cvNDUyMDYwMy9lcGlzb2Rlcy9mZWVk) Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4kqzSFmuGrvhc4CGwftgFt (https://open.spotify.com/show/4kqzSFmuGrvhc4CGwftgFt) Charity: The Onward and Upward Foundation (https://onwardandupwardfoundation.org/ (https://onwardandupwardfoundation.org/)) Donation: https://www.paypal.com/donate?token=dkfnB58kqy1fKE7qBIhGvNzk5sBArSgeRYvcWlZsrOczyvCmr_8KId7hdfTOkH6-5ditIcZUtlCuOXbc (https://www.paypal.com/donate?token=dkfnB58kqy1fKE7qBIhGvNzk5sBArSgeRYvcWlZsrOczyvCmr_8KId7hdfTOkH6-5ditIcZUtlCuOXbc) Social Links LinkedIn Company: https://www.linkedin.com/company/transform-u-media-broadcast-network/ (https://www.linkedin.com/company/transform-u-media-broadcast-network/) Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/heykurt/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/abilitynow (https://www.facebook.com/abilitynow) | https://www.facebook.com/roskopfs (https://www.facebook.com/roskopfs) Thanks for Listening!

Show SummaryThere are 2 references I absolutely disdain..."how is life treating you", for it empowers others and external events to dictate what your present and future will look like and "the good old days" for it unequivocally states that the best is behind you, delegating to others that which will make the biggest positive personal and global differences going forward ! Over the next 35 minutes or so, with the help of our guest, TED Talk MAIN PLATFORM SPEAKER Ashton Applewhite, I intend to dispel both! Key Topics: What is ageism, how should it be understood and at what age does it rear its head? What's the antidote to having ageism take hold of one's life, regardless of what others think or say? What impact does the so-called beauty industry and big pharma have on ageism?

Do you know someone touched by Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder? We have learned over the years here at CausePods that so many causes exist under the fabric of society without ever seeing mainstream attention.  This is the case with our interview with Natalie Vecchione from the FASD Hope podcast, where she highlights stories of hope for parents who may just be beginning to face this diagnosis or maybe have worked through it alone for years.  Natalie teaches us to use our stories and help share others' stories to help build bonds of connection, so that cause advocates know they are not alone.  Key Topics: What is FASD, and what makes this cause important (1:14) What are some of the subtle symptoms of FASD (4:43) How much of FASD happens to regular people who just make a mistake (7:54) How did you get started making this your cause of choice to support (12:40) Where did Natalie learn her way around podcasting that helped her launch FASD Hope (16:19) What were some of the biggest lessons learned that helped make FASD Hope easier to launch (17:55) What made Proof Alliance her charity of choice to support with this episode (21:00) For anyone launching a cause-based podcast, what is your advice to them (23:29) Resources: https://ncfasdinformed.org/ (https://ncfasdinformed.org/) https://fascets.org/ (https://fascets.org/) https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0972953205/ref=as_li_qf_asin_il_tl?ie=UTF8&tag=fasdhope-20&creative=9325&linkCode=as2&creativeASIN=0972953205&linkId=86ded301f82666cf202c8ba6b874591a (Book) – Trying Differently Rather Than Harder by Diane Malbin Website link: http://www.fasdhope.com/ Podcast Links: Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/fasd-hope/ (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/fasd-hope/) Google: https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9mZWVkLnBvZGJlYW4uY29tL2Zhc2Rob3BlL2ZlZWQueG1s (https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9mZWVkLnBvZGJlYW4uY29tL2Zhc2Rob3BlL2ZlZWQueG1s) Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4E0022tclozCpY1gOtpXAG?si=7WcY7NwzQ0q2KFDRjown6g Charity: Pr%F Alliance (https://www.proofalliance.org/ (https://www.proofalliance.org/)) Donation: https://www.proofalliance.org/donate/ Social Links Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/fasdhope1/ (https://www.pinterest.com/fasdhope1/) Facebook: https://m.facebook.com/fasdhope1/ (https://m.facebook.com/fasdhope1/) Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/fasdhope/ (https://www.instagram.com/fasdhope/) Thanks for Listening!

These are the questions that Nancy Diaz set out to answer and provide resources for a group of people who seem to have it all.  Behind the Instagram perfect life, they can have the same mental health problems as everyone else.

Missy writes, “I take the brave leap, the step of what she would do, and it feels amazing. I know it’s right and I know the landing will be right, but how do I keep trusting and stay in the excitement without having the evidence of the new outcome?

Show SummaryA number of years ago I was on my way to lunch with clients, when my eyes were drawn to a sign a local church had placed outside its building. It read "sinners welcome." Initially I was angered, but upon further reflection, I correctly gave the church and it's leadership the benefit of the doubt, assuming they weren't professing themselves to be uniquely empowered to judge between so-called "saints and sinners." To do so, I would be no better than those who espouse that posture. Rather, I chalked it up to bad marketing in their outreach to attract new congregants.Key Topics: What is one important way the heads of many faiths are overlooking in their service to their congregants and therefore, are holding them back from becoming the best version of themselves? How is it that some houses of faith continue to attract more of the very challenges they would desire less of, to the detriment of all? Whether a house of faith or any environment views you as half-empty or half-full, speaks volumes as to where you ought to be investing your valuable and limited time!Resources:Alan Freedman's Email address - therabbi@thewalkbook.comShareable Link to this episode - https://www.buzzsprout.com/859273/5910520Sheri Sperry's website to connect with her: https://sellsedona.com/sedona-lifestyleCall to Action:Link to automatically receive newly released podcast episodes - http://eepurl.com/g1DSf9If you liked this episode, you can rate and review it by going to https://lovethepodcast.com/mybestversion.

Welcoming Cleveland | GigRoots Podcast Welcoming America Series, pt. 4Are Immigrants the Secret Weapon to Advancing Black Achievement in America?And Cleveland, OH Enters the Race to Become the New Wakanda. About the episode:In this final episode of the Welcoming America series, we're in Cleveland, Ohio. It's a swing-state, and a place where the stakes are higher than ever. Does it hold the secret to bringing about both economic and social transformation as a country? In Cleveland, there’s a cultural rift between blacks in America and African immigrants that dates back decades. Of course, the primary distinction boils down to volition—one group has come voluntarily while another are the descendants of those brought here against their will. That context makes all the difference for embracing America as a land of opportunity. However, the connective tissue is the idea of overcoming adversity, of demonstrating resilience even in the face of overwhelming odds. Will this rift be repaired through solidarity, or will the chasm become greater? Perhaps the very social fabric of the nation hinges upon the election and what shapes the next four years of leadership for the country. Key Topics:What's the backstory behind the divide between Africans and native-born black Americans? How do we overcome the trauma of slavery alongside the horrific experiences of many refugees?Will immigrants help shape the country's economic future or is that merely a pipe dream?How do we come together across cultural backgrounds to change the social fabric of a nation? Guests:Joe Cimperman, President of Global ClevelandEsther Ngemba, Owner of Furahi Taste of HomeHelpful Links:https://globalcleveland.org/https://furahiatasteofhome.com/About the series:During our third season, we’ve partnered with Welcoming America to help share the stories of foreign-born peoples who have come to call America home. Welcoming America is leading a national movement of cultivating inclusive communities. They work with non-profits and local governments, providing tools and resources to help make cities places where everyone can belong. Through their network, we’ve spoken with local leaders and business owners actively contributing to strengthening their communities. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

You might be familiar with the terms “inflation” and “deflation,” but do you know how they positively and negatively impact us as investors? About 2 weeks ago, the Federal Reserve held a virtual conference where they said they would be willing to let inflation run higher over a certain period of time to make up for lower inflation we’ve experienced in the recent past. So, over the next 10 years they could target a higher inflation rate than has previously been seen.To understand how this might impact us as investors, Brandon Averill, managing partner of AWM Capital, is joined again by Justin Dyer, AWM’s Chief Investment Officer, to discuss inflation and the implications it has on investments.Key Topics:What exactly is inflation?What does a quart of milk have to do with how inflation is measured?Why is inflation important to investors?What happens with slow inflation?What is typically considered the ideal inflation rate for the U.S. economy?What is the Consumer Price Index (CPI) and what does it impact?What is the Personal Consumption Expenditure (PCE) and what does it impact?Why has inflation been in the news recently?Resources:Investopedia has some great resources on Price Level, Basket of Goods, and Purchasing PowerAlso, be sure to read Dimensional Fund Advisors great article on Inflation’s Impact on Investors

Show SummaryWithout a doubt, those who bring a message to their congregation, are the ones who should be benefiting the most! It would seem that the Divine's purpose is for the bringer of a message to "get it" first. This is especially important given the enormous vacuums that can now reside in our hearts given what we're all experiencing, making us vulnerable to whatever comes along. We desperately need that which results in authentic heart-change and not simply what comes from mere lifeless words on a page! What Rabbi Alicia has to share is simply endlessly stunning...soul stirring. Listen to her NOW. ENJOY!Key Topics: What needs to happen in order for a stirring message received to take deep root, leading to genuine lifelong and positive change?Have you ever wanted to know how to discern Divine purpose for your life? Rabbi Alicia's advice gets effectively to the core and delivers just what the Rabbi ordered!.When it comes down to what we're passing on to others, having an "Ethical Will" can deliver to those we love, a timeless, priceless gift when we pass. Rabbi Alicia opens her heart, affording listeners a peek into the depths of what's most important to her.Resources:Alan Freedman's Email address - therabbi@thewalkbook.comShareable Link to this episode - https://www.buzzsprout.com/859273/5282162Call to Action:Link to free Audible Trial - http://www.audibletrial.com/mybestversionLink to automatically receive newly released podcast episodes - http://eepurl.com/g1DSf9Free Audible Trial ProgramEnroll using my custom URL and you'll have a free membership for 30 days.You can cancel anytime,Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

If you’re planning for retirement right now, chances are you’ve never actually been through it. In fact, most financial advisors have never even experienced retirement. In this interview, you will learn how to prepare for retirement both mentally and financially.Benjamin Brandt, Founder and President of Capital City Wealth Management, teaches people how to retire. During his time as a fee-only financial planner, he’s observed that many people are disillusioned with how they will spend their time in retirement.In this video, Greg and Benjamin discuss the importance of having awareness about what retirement will look like and then having something to retire to.KEY TOPICS -What is a Retirement Rehearsal? -What is a Practice Retirement? -What is your Retirement Calling?WHY CONSIDER A RETIREMENT REHEARSAL?There is an intangibility about what retirement might look like. Many people think retirement is trips to Disney World with the grandkids, traveling around in an RV, and rounds of golf everyday, when in reality many retirees struggle to fill the 40 hour void left by the absence of a full-time job. Statistics show 52.4 billion dollars of unused vacation time is squandered every year—a 40 year high. While a few employers gift retirees vacation pay as they leave the workforce, it typically amounts to less than a fifth of the vacation pay that was actually earned. Wouldn’t it be helpful if we took advantage of this resource and used it to help us plan for retirement ahead of time? WHAT IS A RETIREMENT REHEARSAL? The first step is to make sure you have a written financial plan. The retirement rehearsal is useless if you can’t go back to a written plan and make the necessary adjustments. The retirement rehearsal is meant to give us a little dose of reality. Typically 2-5 years before retirement, Benjamin encourages his clients to use a few weeks of that valuable yet often underused vacation time to see what life after the 9-5 grind looks like. He encourages clients to stay at home and do absolutely nothing. You’ll see how your expenses during that time coincide with the amount your written financial plan has allotted. Boredom is the number one enemy of retirement, usually inciting an unplanned vacation or unnecessarily large purchase. Such an impulse move can drastically throw off your retirement plan. As Benjamin puts it, “you’re stealing from your 70, 80, and 90-year-old self.” Consider a retirement rehearsal so that you’ll head into retirement with a disciplined, prepared mindset about what the final phase of life looks like. WHAT IS A PRACTICE RETIREMENT? Many people conduct a retirement rehearsal and realize they’re not quite ready to fully retire yet. A “Practice Retirement” is phasing yourself out of your career in increments. A combination of retirement and career, either max out your vacation days or drop down to part-time work. You’ll begin to live like you’re retired, while still making contributions to your retirement accounts and allowing your portfolio to grow. WHAT IS YOUR RETIREMENT CALLING? Benjamin encourages his clients to create a lifestyle they do not want to retire from. If you have not already, figure out what you’re truly passionate about and begin to transition from your career to your calling. Often this is an excellent way to add an additional stream of income. Even though it might be minimal, it can do wonders to the size and longevity of your portfolio. If you’re passionate about playing guitar, consider teaching guitar lessons at a local music store. If you enjoy playing golf, consider giving lessons at the country club. Even if it’s just a few thousand dollars a year, when you take the phenomena of compound interest into account, this additional stream of income from pursuing your passion can either allow you to retire a little sooner or perhaps live a more opulent lifestyle throughout the next phase of your life. Retirement is full of unknowns, so do what you can in advance to prepare. A “Retirement Rehearsal” might be a good way to get a taste of what life will be like once you no longer work full-time. Once you conduct a retirement rehearsal, consider a “Practice Retirement” to help you phase into that next chapter of life. Finally, consider using your passions to create additional streams of income that will then add even more substance to your portfolio.
