Phil Rosenzweig has been a professor at IMD Business School in Lausanne, Switzerland, for about 30 years. We discuss Phil's legendary book “The Halo Effect”, which debunks much of the classic management literature and explains how we tend to think that when a company performs well, the CEO is fantastic, the company has operational excellence, and the employees love to work there. We set a halo on the good performers.For more info about the podcast, go to the episode page and make sure to follow us on X/Twitter.

Lawrence Armstrong is the chairman of Ware Malcomb, a leading design firm that he helped grow from 3 offices to over 46 offices globally. He started at the company in 1984 and eventually purchased it from the founders in 1992. As an architect and artist, Lawrence has leveraged both his creative and strategic skills to drive the firm's success.Balancing Creativity and Business @ 3:28Lawrence believes it's important for architects and designers to develop both their creative and business skills. He advocates for "whole brain" thinking, drawing inspiration from Renaissance figures like Leonardo da Vinci who excelled in diverse domains. Lawrence's own background as an internationally exhibited artist has complemented his work as a business leader.Scaling and Integrating a Geographically Distributed Firm @ 7:00Under Lawrence's leadership, Ware Malcomb expanded from 3 offices to over 46 offices across the US, Canada, Mexico, and Brazil. He emphasizes the importance of maintaining a "one team" culture and consistent service delivery across the distributed offices, leveraging centralized resources and collaborative processes.Developing Future Leaders @ 9:35Recognizing the need for strong leadership as the company scaled, Lawrence focused on building a leadership development program to identify, train, and mentor the next generation of leaders at Ware Malcomb. This included executive coaching, mentorship, and creating opportunities for emerging leaders to take on greater responsibility.Philanthropy and Community Engagement @ 43:34In addition to his work at Ware Malcomb, Lawrence has been actively involved in addressing homelessness in his local community of Orange County, California. He helped launch a program called "United to End Homelessness" that has housed over 1,100 people through innovative approaches like landlord incentives.Reflections on the Creative Process @ 48:55As Lawrence transitions from CEO to Chairman, he is spending more time pursuing his passion for art and creativity. He discusses the iterative, collaborative process of writing his new book "Layered Leadership" and is open to the possibility of future writing projects, though he is focused on the current book launch for now.
We are living in a world that feels increasingly “left-brained.” Though both hemispheres are constantly working together, they have distinct values, traits, and ways of operating the world. In this podcast episode, I discuss:* The different attributes of the left and right hemisphere* How can we recognize which hemisphere is taking the lead in a given moment* The advantages of letting the right brain take the lead* How we strengthen our right hemisphere with the help of neuroplasticity (and specific (enjoyable) activities).* The added benefits of doing this in community.Related to this topic, I look forward to sharing information soon on an upcoming discussion group called “Strengthening the Right Brain in Left Brain Times.” In the meantime, as always, I welcome discussion right here. Please feel free to comment and to help me get the value of the right brain out into the world.Until next time,CourtneyP.S.

Recently, an interview by Christiane Amanpour caught my attention. It was with Coralie Fargiat, the director of “The Substance.” Though I haven't seen this 2024 body horror movie (nor do I intend to), the story brings up several teaching points about the left brain, undermethylation, neuroplasticity, and our collective obsession with beauty.The movie is about an actress, Elizabeth, who loses her job hosting a fitness television show when she turns fifty. She has “aged out.” While in the hospital after a car accident, someone directs her to a product - the substance - a neon green liquid that will allow her to bud off a younger version of herself - Sue. The rule is that Sue can only go out into the world for one week at a time, alternating each week with Elizabeth while the other lies dormant. Not surprisingly, Sue has more advantages in the world (that Elizabeth inhabits), including replacing Elizabeth on her former TV show. Increasingly, when it's time to switch, Sue breaks the one-week rule. This results in part of Elizabeth's body becoming increasingly deformed. The culmination is a grotesque battle of gore between the two, who initially were instructed to remember, “You are one.”In the interview, the director, Coralie Fargeat, discusses her personal experience:“I turned 40 and was more impacted than ever about what it's like to be a woman, the feeling that if I wasn't young and pretty and sexy, I would be totally erased from the surface of the earth. So there was this kind of emergency, this vitality to the things I speak about in my film.”Research supports this thinking that beautiful people are treated better and thus have more advantages. With the use of photoshopping, social media filters, and even plastic surgery, many teens and young adults are experiencing neuroplastic changes that are making real people, including themselves, appear increasingly off or even grotesque. Left Brain“The Substance” is a left-brain nightmare. It shows us the self-destructive path the left brain can take us on, especially in a world that tells it exactly how things should look. Elizabeth, the main character in the movie, is rigid in her thinking, addicted to an image of herself, perfectionistic, and highly competitive. In some ways, these left-brain attributes have served her, but unchecked, they destroy her. If the left brain were a person, it would have the following traits and perspective on appearance: (These traits are oversimplified and pulled from Dr. Iain McGilchrist's work) - * Detail-oriented, narrow focus of attention - “That doesn't look right.”* Prefers what it knows and prioritizes what it expects - “I should look this way.”* Has difficulties disengaging - “I can't stop thinking about this and how to fix it.”* Sees parts (as opposed to the whole) * Sees the body as a sum of parts * Doesn't have a whole image of the body (as found in those who have damage to the right hemisphere)* Is competitive - “I need to look better than they do”* Fears of uncertainty and lack of control (As you can imagine, this is a problem for anyone human and thus who will age)The left brain will set its sights on beauty, success, titles, money, objects, or anything else that feeds the “I.” Because the left brain can't see the “big picture,” it has a hard time pulling back far enough to see how its way of thinking may be getting in the way. The Right BrainOur ability to feel embodied is a job for our brain's right hemisphere. When the voice in the movie reminds Elizabeth, “You are one,” it may as well be speaking on behalf of the right hemisphere.Our right brain allows us to have compassion, including self-compassion. It honors diversity and differences. It can see the bigger picture of our lives that involve multiple developmental stages. It can sit with uncertainty. It knows that our imperfections and differences promote connection with actual humans.UndermethylationLeft brain tendencies strongly overlap with undermethylation traits. Methylation is a biochemical and cellular phenomenon that serves many important functions. If we “undermethylate,” we can have more difficulties breaking down histamine, more difficulties detoxifying, and lower serotonin activity. Methylation is impacted by a number of genes, the most well-known being MTHFR.Undermethylated traits include perfectionism, obsessive-compulsive tendencies, being highly competitive, having ruminations, and addictive tendencies. The NDMA ReceptorThose of us who are undermethylated can have high activity at the NMDA receptor, resulting in a problem with “memory extinction” or letting go of a thought. This could look like obsessive-compulsive tendencies (including those seen in body dysmorphia) and addictive tendencies. High histamine (again due to undermethylation) can increase activity at this receptor. Low zinc, high estrogen, and low magnesium can also be at play.I suspect Elizabeth is undermethylated and has high activity at the NMDA receptor. Both could be assessed for and treated (in part) using targeted nutrients. I say, in part, because the brain training / neural training that occurs through social media is difficult to override if someone is still “using.” Interestingly, EMF exposure (from phones and wireless technology) can increase histamine, further driving these issues.Neuroplasticity and Images of PerfectionThe more images of beautiful images of people we see, the more those images become the norm in our mind, and the more any deviation from that norm will stand out as problematic. This was already a problem with the photoshopping of celebrities and models. But now, with social media filters, teens and young women aren't just comparing themselves to celebrities and models; they're comparing themselves to a filtered image of themself.Filters can create larger eyes, bigger lips, more angular jawlines, whiter teeth, slimmer faces, and smooth and even skin tones. Research into the use of filters:* Millennials are predicted to take 25,000 selfies on average over their lifetimes* About 90% of women aged 18-30 report using beauty filters before posting selfies on social media. * Repeated interactions with filtered images and associated beliefs and worries are increasing the risk of mental health issues such as:* depression* social anxiety* reduced self-esteem* appearance anxiety* body dysmorphia* increase of plastic surgery* 62% of plastic surgeons report that their patients wanted cosmetic procedures because of dissatisfaction with their social media profiles* Snapchat dysmorphia” is what plastic surgeons are calling the act of taking a picture of one's self and using a filter.* Selfies are the leading cause of plastic surgery among young people* Girls who routinely shared self-images on social media had considerably higher body dissatisfaction relative to those who share selfies less frequently. * Body Dysmorphic Disorder among young women has been linked to social media use.In short, the research shows that investing in one's self-presentation on social media is often a harmful practice. The more one does it, the more damaging it tends to be. It encourages hyperattention to unrealistic beauty standards and a desire to change one's physical appearance. This problem of hyperattention to unrealistic beauty standards isn't just a phenomenon of teenage girls and younger women. I´m 57 and understand these things, and still, I´ve had to be intentional about how much attention and neuronal wiring I put into what increasingly feels like defying the very full and lovely reality of my current age. A SequelIf I could write a sequel to “The Substance,” it would be about how Elizabeth (the main character) gets off screens and finds a group of real women (her age and older) that she comes to trust, finds refuge, and who she is inspired by. Instead of looking through a lens of culturally defined beauty, she is struck by the strength, courage, and peace they never could have embodied at a younger age. These women who inspire and shape her would like Helen Mirin (79), who corrected a podcast interviewer after they said to her, “But you are young at heart.” She tells him that no, she is not….”My spirit is the age that I am. When you say 'youthful', I'm not full of youth. I'm full of the life that I've lived up to this point.As girls and women, we need these women in our lives. We can do our part to become these women - the desperately needed embodiments of the right brain. Wishing you peace and wholeness,CourtneyCourtneySnyderMD.comP.S.

Merry Christmas Eve! Today is all about the manic energy you may be feeling during the holidays. It includes ways to work on yourself and ways to deal with emotionally reactive relatives. Right now, I've been living in the left brain takeover, shuffling through the world's greatest hits of all of my failures in life. Although the left brain does a great job of protecting us, it can also lead us to believe nothing coming up can be good for us. When this chatter goes on, we can choose to change our perspective, take back the power, and remind ourselves that it's all just noise. We can choose to ask ourselves, "What would I love right now?" To zone out and watch a movie, go on a walk, take a nap; to get a few things accomplished on the to-do list so I'm not so overwhelmed. Remember you are in the driver's seat on those days you feel manic. We can take a breath and choose to be okay with all the things the left brain has to say. Though it's not easy, it can be done!

0:00 Intro 0:56 Recapping the Year for the Market's Best Performers 2:28 How to Respond When Your Stocks are Up Significantly 3:59 Topic 1: Debunking "Too High, Too Fast" 13:39 Topic 2: Alternatives if You Can't Stomach Staying Long 16:40 Bonus: Another Income Idea In speaking with clients over the last few weeks, one theme keeps coming up in discussions. Many of their portfolio stocks have made sharp, quick moves higher, prompting two key questions: "Are these stocks too high, too fast? Should I sell?" In this week's Jarvis® Update, CEO Noland Langford and Director of Research, Brian Dress, do their best to debunk the myth of "too high, too fast". We look at 5 stocks early in the video, 4 of which have seen stock prices increase by more than 100% in 2024 alone. Noland looks back on his considerable experience as both an advisor and an investor to share wisdom he's learned over the years in how to deal with such fortuitous circumstance. He urges investors to allow the "magic" of their best growth stocks to play in their favor. The takeaway: stocks that move high often have a great chance to continue their strong performance over the years. We have a keen understanding from working with investors that our optimistic viewpoint doesn't fit with every personality. For those investors, we offer an alternative, diving deeper into our income securities project, which we have been building diligently over the last six months. For those who make it to the end of the video, we cover one of our favorite income securities, which we wrote up this week. If you still have cash building up in checking, savings, CDs, or elsewhere on the sidelines, now is the time to consider finding it a new place to grow. Contact us for some ideas of how you can reallocate those funds more productively.

In this episode, my guest is Dr. Allan Schore, Ph.D., a faculty member in the department of psychiatry and behavioral sciences at the University of California, Los Angeles, a longtime clinical psychotherapist, and a multi-book author. We discuss how early child-parent interactions shape brain circuitry, impacting our ability to form attachments, manage emotions, and navigate conflict and stress. We cover how the development of right-brain circuitry related to emotional processing and the unconscious mind regulates physiological responses, influencing adult friendships and romantic relationships. We also explore how improving your ability to listen to the emotional tone—rather than just the meaning—of words is a vital skill for fostering better relationships with yourself and others, and how it plays a role in reshaping brain circuitry. Additionally, we explain how circuits in the right brain hemisphere drive creativity and intuition and discuss activities to access the unconscious mind. This episode delves into how the unconscious mind regulates emotions—both your own and others'—and shapes our sense of self. By the end, you'll have new knowledge and tools to build more secure, meaningful, and impactful connections of all kinds: professional, romantic, familial, friendships, and beyond.

0:00 Intro 0:59 Market Update 3:29 Topic 1: Outlook for New Administration Policy 8:09 Topic 2: Investment Opportunities in the New Administration 11:27 BKLN -- Another Income Security The US Election is past and we have a definitive winner. There are plenty of implications for health policy, foreign policy, and beyond, but today we are focusing on the implications for our listeners and their investments. The 2 main messages we want to stress are (1) Don't Do Anything Rash and (2) Don't Mix Your Politics with Your Investments! In this week's Jarvis® Update, CEO Noland Langford and Director of Research, Brian Dress, cover the changes we expect to see in fiscal policy (taxes and spending), along with the regulatory regime. We expect to see a lighter environment for regulation, along with an administration more favorable to mergers & acquisitions, which is ultimately shareholder friendly. We also touch briefly on what sectors we expect to perform well in the coming Presidential administration. The episode closes out with yet another income security idea, which you need to watch to the end for the reveal. With interest rates on a bit of a rollercoaster in 2024, we have an idea that should perform well in a rising interest rate, due to its investment in floating rate debt. We know some of you were holding money on the sidelines waiting for the outcome of the election. With that uncertainty behind us, it's time to put those funds to work. If you still have cash building up in checking, savings, CDs, or elsewhere, let us know. As interest rates drop, you are taking on more reinvestment risk and we have some ideas of how you can reallocate those funds.

Today we're exploring a crucial shift in recruiting: moving from an emotional approach to a logical one. In this episode, I'll explain how the recruiting landscape has evolved, why recruits are now making more data-driven decisions, and how you can adapt to this new reality. Episode Breakdown 00:00 - 01:30 - Richard opens with a recent trend: successful recruiting leaders are struggling to recruit effectively despite using tried-and-true methods. He attributes this to a fundamental shift in how recruits respond to recruiting efforts. 01:31 - 03:30 - Many recruits are now more sophisticated, approaching decisions with the same logic used by high-level executives. This shift has created challenges for leaders who are accustomed to emotionally-driven recruiting. 03:31 - 05:30 - Historically, emotional recruiting—using excitement and gut feelings—was enough to attract recruits. Now, recruits are looking for logical, data-backed presentations instead of emotionally driven pitches. 05:31 - 08:30 - Richard introduces the idea of presenting a vision-based recruiting approach. Leaders must articulate a future-focused roadmap that's both exciting and logical to align with a recruit's goals. 08:31 - 10:00 - He explains that recruits now operate similarly to executives, needing clear data and a vision to feel comfortable making changes. Presenting them with clear steps on how you'll help them grow or meet their goals is essential. 10:01 - 12:00 - Richard shares the importance of “future language.” Rather than focusing solely on present benefits, effective recruiting requires showing a pathway to future growth, offering a compelling long-term vision. 12:01 - 15:00 - Examples of vision-based recruiting include describing how recruits can double their current productivity or build a stronger market position. By mapping out this potential, leaders can motivate logical recruits effectively. 15:01 - 18:00 - Richard introduces Right-Brain vs. Left-Brain Recruiting: right-brain recruiting focuses on emotional appeal, while left-brain recruiting relies on logical strategies. He encourages leaders to embrace a balanced approach for optimal results. 18:01 - 20:00 - He concludes by emphasizing that successful recruiting today requires not only a deep belief in your vision but also a clear, logical roadmap. Leaders must adapt to recruits' new logical expectations to continue winning in their markets. Key Takeaways Shift to Logic: Recruits are now more analytical; a logical, future-focused approach is critical. Vision-Based Recruiting: Present a compelling long-term vision that aligns with the recruit's goals. Balance Emotional and Logical Appeal: Use both emotional and logical recruiting strategies to engage recruits effectively. Recruiting Leaders need to adapt by moving beyond emotional pitches and embracing a logical, data-driven recruiting approach. Presenting a clear vision for the future will make your recruiting efforts more impactful. Need more recruiting tips? Subscribe to my weekly email at 4crecruiting.com.

0:00 Intro 0:53 A Look Back at the Year to Date 3:52 Topic 1: Investing Around the US Election 7:49 Topic 2: Earnings Season in Full Swing 13:01 Topic 3: BONUS -- Income Securities We know there are jitters among investors as we move swiftly toward the US Presidential #election. Volatility has kicked up over the last 6 weeks, especially as regards #interestrates. In this week's Jarvis® Update, CEO Noland Langford and Director of Research, Brian Dress, cover our thoughts on the election. You won't hear us pontificating on matters political, but we do share historical data suggesting that the ultimate result of the election is unlikely to make a substantial difference in long-term return expectations. We also give you our view into the 3rd quarter #earningseason as it continues to unfold. We heard very constructive reports from major tech companies in Netflix (NFLX), ServiceNow (NOW), and Tesla (TSLA). We share thoughts on a few other names, including United Parcel Service (UPS) and a couple blasts from the past in General Electric (GE) and International Business Machines (IBM). The episode closes out with a bonus Topic 3. As interest rates have drifted lower in 2024, we have been on the hunt for new avenues for income. This has led us to closed-end funds and Brian shares one of our favorites. If you still have cash building up in checking, savings, CDs, or elsewhere, let us know. As interest rates drop, you are taking on more reinvestment risk and we have some ideas of how you can reallocate those funds.

Have you sat down with a professional to make sure you are taking full advantage of every aspect of your plan? This edition of Fundamentals of Investing is the second installment of our "Employee Benefits" series. Working with corporate executives is one of our specialties at Left Brain and there are a lot of aspects to it that you may not have considered. In episode 2, we cover the pieces of your employee benefits package beyond your equity comp. CEO Noland Langford lays out his views of how to build wealth using these three workplace benefits: (1) Deferred Compensation (2) After-Tax Contribution to Retirement Plans (3) Net Unrealized Appreciation (NUA) Each carries its own intricacies and your HR department is unlikely to be able to give you advice on how best to manage these benefits. In the latest Fundamentals of Investing series, CEO Noland Langford gives you a crash course on how these benefit plans work and some of the techniques he has used for clients over the years. Helping clients manage these crucial investment decisions has been a specialty of Left Brain since the firm's founding in 2014.

Dr Iain McGilchrist (neuroscientist, psychiatrist, polymath, author of The Master and His Emissary) devised a thesis that sets out how the two sides of our brains can affect the way we both interact and create the world. The left hemisphere is a narrow, extractive, problem-solving “machine” that divides and conquers things, fails to see our part in the world and to fathom beauty, awe and responsibility. Our civilisation, Iain says, has become ruled by a left-brain mentality, which is killing us and leaving us “wretched”; we need to put the right side back in charge! Iain is an associate of Green Templeton College in Oxford and a fellow of the Royal College of Psychiatrists and the Royal Society of Arts. His 2009 book Master and his Emissary became a cult read and the recent follow-up, The Matter with Things took him 12 years to write (and is 600,000 words long!). In this chat we cover why societies start out creative, happy and flourishing (right-brained!) but switch left and destructive as they expand; the secret to living a well and happy life and how to find meaning and beauty in a world we possibly can't “fix” (in the left-brain sense of the word).

0:00 Intro 1:02 Why Noland is at SaaStr this year 1:40 Topic 1: Recapping 2024 SaaStr 5:24 Topic 2: Trends and Takeaways from SaaStr Software companies and, consequently, software stocks, have been on a rollercoaster ride over the last three years. Rising interest rates and the emergence of AI are just two of the many challenges facing the software industry. In this week's Jarvis® Update, we take a slightly different direction than in our normal videos. CEO Noland Langford joins Director of Research, Brian Dress, live from the 2024 SaaStr Conference in San Mateo, CA. SaaStr is a huge gathering of both leading and emerging software-as-a-service (SaaS) companies from all over the world. Noland is clear that he is attending the conference to look for new investment opportunities for Left Brain clients. Growth is central to the Left Brain strategy and finding new avenues to deliver growth is always a high priority for us. Noland shares some of the companies that surprised and impressed him most in face-to-face meetings. He also covers themes that seem to be universal in the software business today. We close out the episode with a lengthy discussion of how AI is impacting the software business, for better or worse. Topic 1: Recapping the SaaStr Conference Topic 2: Trends and Takeaways from SaaStr We happen to think growth is important for investors in all phases of life. To hear how we are incorporating what we've learned at SaaStr for our clients, get in touch with us using the contact info below.

0:00 Intro 0:49 Market Recap 1:59 Topic 1: 2nd Quarter Earnings Review 8:36 Topic 2: Is This a Market in Transition? With 2nd quarter earnings moving toward a close, we are taking inventory of trends developing in the overall markets. Where information technology and communications services were the sectors dominating in the first half of 2024, we are starting to see some new trends developing, as interest rates begin to crest and move lower. In this week's Jarvis® Update, CEO Noland Langford and Director of Research, Brian Dress, discuss some of the most market-moving earnings over the past week, including from major players like Nvidia (NVDA), Salesforce.com (CRM), and CrowdStrike (CRWD).

We live in a left brain world. The brain's left hemisphere is generally concerned with being explicit, certain, and in control. The right hemisphere, in contrast, is focused on story, metaphor, space, and connection. Shifting to the right brain can open up a world of possibility, as we become more concerned with what we experience and how we're connected and less concerned with being right. In this episode, we explore how to shift from left brain to right brain, with a specific meditation practice designed to help you engage this shift.
In this episode, I delve into my journey as a Pilates professional, sharing insights on guiding students through their final exams, the energy I see in both graduating and new students, and the importance of understanding the why behind Pilates exercises. I explore the balance between the left and right brain hemispheres and the significance of seeing the bigger picture. Delving into the impact of Pilates on physical, mental, and emotional well-being, I emphasize the value of community and connection. KeyTakeaways Mentoring students for final exams is crucial in the Pilates professional's learning journey. Knowing why Pilates exercises are done is vital for an instructor's growth and development. Balancing the left and right brain hemispheres and stepping back to see the bigger picture is essential for a holistic understanding of Pilates. Pilates profoundly impacts individuals' physical, mental, and emotional well-being. Building community and connection is vital for instructors and clients in Pilates.

If you are stuck too much in your head, whether you are a man or a woman, it can lead to relationship and sexual problems. In this episode, Kevin Anthony talks with former scientist and now relationship coach Jessica Gold about how being in a highly left-brain occupation led to her shutting down parts of herself, how experiences such as living in a Tantra community cracked her open, how left-brain dominated men can understand women, how left-brained dominated women can open more to their sexuality, and more. While this episode was originally focused on men, the discussion brought many valuable insights for women as well.

0:00 Intro 1:02 Market Recap 2:23 Topic 1: Bull is Roaring, But the Rally is Narrowing 8:04 Topic 2: Interest Rates, Inflation, and the Consumer As summer begins, we are back with you with a market update video for the first time in the last six weeks. In this week's Jarvis® Update, CEO Noland Langford and Director of Research, Brian Dress, discuss the current state of things and developments since we last released a video. There is an awful lot to discuss this week. Since markets bottomed in mid-April, the S&P 500 is up roughly 10%, while the tech-heavy NASDAQ is up 15%. But not everything is participating -- weakness in small caps, value, industrials, energy, materials, and software mean that despite an overall bull market, the rally appears to be narrowing. In Topic 2 we discuss everyone's favorite topic we've been hoping to jettison for years now -- interest rates and inflation. We also chat about the fact that the consumer is feeling the squeeze from high inflation.

What roles do our left and right brains play in creativity and mysticism? How are our spiritual beliefs and practices shaped by our cosmologies? How might we shape a future beyond either/or dogmas?To immerse in the work of Xenia Viray is to dissolve boundaries between worlds, to question arbitrary distinctions between disciplines, and to delight in the heart as a sacred alchemist in service of the mystery.In this conversation, Xenia and I explored the poetic capacities of the intellectual mind – drawing connections between the left and right hemispheres of the brain, individualism and collectivism, productivity and creativity.

As we finish up our season with a recital themed by Dr. Seuss quotes, my mind seems to work in comical rhythmic words. Rather than Left Foot, Right Foot, Foot, Foot, Foot, today we are talking about outcomes of some of our right brain, left brain functions. Walk along now and listen in.
0:06 Is Real Estate Really "Passive"? 2:20 What About Vacancy? 3:39 More Hidden Costs 5:53 Four Passive Investment Alternatives to Real Estate Should you invest in real estate? As advisors, this is one of the most frequently asked questions we hear from clients and other investors. Most important when answering this question is really understanding your goals: are you looking for cash flow? price appreciation? are you in it to own a business? Without answering this fundamental question, it's hard to develop an investment strategy that makes sense. In the latest Fundamentals of Investing series, we give our analysis of real estate as an investment. In Part 2 of the series, CEO Noland Langford talks more about the hidden costs of real estate investing. We ask the question "Is Real Estate Investing Really 'Passive'?" and talk about the perils around vacancy. Finally, Director of Research, Brian Dress, leads a discussion of 4 alternative investments to real estate that are truly passive -- that is, offer similar or better returns to real estate, without the headaches that come along with the property management business.

The post The Bible speaks to your left brain and your right. appeared first on Key Life.
Today we're talking nerdy with Alex's favorite neuroscientist of all time, the author of her favorite neuroscience books, Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor. In this episode, Dr. Jill and Alex will talk nerdy about some of the major distinctions between the right and left brain hemispheres, how learning how to selectively access either hemisphere can make a major impact on the way you move through your day or your life, how the human brain is designed in such a way that we are at our core feeling beings who think NOT thinking beings who feel, the miracle and magic of our own cellular biology, and how neuroscience can answer some of the bigger questions we have about life such as what we as human beings are here to do. If you've never heard of Dr. Jill, you are in for such a treat. Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor is a Harvard trained and published neuroanatomist who is now affiliated with the Indiana University School of Medicine. In 1996 she experienced a severe hemorrhage in the left hemisphere of her brain causing her to lose the ability to walk, talk, read, write or recall any of her life. Her memoir, My Stroke of Insight, documenting her experience with stroke and eight-year recovery spent 63 weeks on the New York Times nonfiction bestseller list. Her most recent 2021 book is WHOLE BRAIN LIVING: The Anatomy of Choice and the Four Characters That Drive Our Life. Dr. Taylor loves educating everyone about the beauty and resiliency of our human brain, and how we can live a more peaceful and satisfying life. In 2008 she gave the first TED talk that ever went viral on the Internet, which now has well over 29 million views. Also in 2008, Dr. Taylor was chosen as one of TIME Magazine's “100 Most Influential People in the World” and was the premiere guest on Oprah Winfrey's “Soul Series” web-cast.
