In this episode of Stuff About Money They Didn't Teach You in School, hosts ⁠Erik Garcia⁠, CFP®, ChFC®, BFA™, and ⁠Xavier Angel⁠, CFP®, ChFC®, CLTC®, tackle a hard truth — sometimes, the biggest threat to our financial health isn't the economy, it's the lies we tell ourselves. From “I'll save when I make more” to “I deserve this purchase” and “I can time the market,” Erik and Xavier break down how these self-deceptions quietly shape our spending, saving, and investing habits. They'll also reveal how these internal narratives may be fueling the stress behind alarming stats showing that 58% of Americans feel their finances are in crisis and 47% say money negatively affects their mental health. Digging deeper, they unpack the psychology and emotion behind each lie and how believing them keeps us stuck — overspending, under-saving, and second-guessing our investments. You'll hear relatable stories, practical tips, and a few laughs along the way as Erik and Xavier guide listeners toward replacing financial fiction with truth. Whether you're guilty of lifestyle creep, emotional spending, or chasing market timing, this conversation will challenge you to confront your money myths and live the Plan Wisely Way. Be sure to follow the show, share it with a friend, and leave a review if you enjoy the episode. Episode Highlights: Erik connects Xavier's story to financial behaviors that can lead to crisis and introduces “three money lies” people tell themselves. (08:00) Together, Erik and Xavier unpack the first lie: “I'll save more when I make more,” discussing paycheck-to-paycheck realities and intentional saving habits. (11:00) Xavier challenges excuses around spending, encouraging listeners to align money use with what truly matters. (14:00) Erik emphasizes starting small, automating savings, and prioritizing goals that match personal values. (18:00) Erik and Xavier move to the second lie, “I deserve this,” exploring emotional spending, debt, and budgeting for wants versus needs. (20:00) Erik shares strategies to manage impulse buys and highlights the power of financial planning rooted in discipline and purpose. (24:00) Xavier discusses intentional spending on meaningful experiences and maintaining balance between enjoyment and prudence. (26:00) The third lie, “I can time the market,” introduces a conversation on emotional investing and long-term financial discipline. (28:00) Erik and Xavier reminds listeners that honest reflection, planning, and value-based choices lead to stronger financial wellbeing. (31:00) Key Quotes: “There's lies that we tell ourselves about money. We're all guilty of this. Just some are guilty of it at different levels. Levels that are more material than others.” -  Erik Garcia, CFP®, ChFC®, BFA™ “Create that strategy, take a look at what your finances are, know what's important to you, and then make those decisions.” - Xavier Angel, CFP®, ChFC®, CLTC® “Saving is like a muscle. And the more you use it, the stronger it gets. The more you save, the easier it gets to save. And I think people just need to start.” -  Erik Garcia, CFP®, ChFC®, BFA™ Resources Mentioned: ⁠Erik Garcia, CFP®, BFA⁠ ⁠Xavier Angel, CFP®, ChFC, CLTC⁠ ⁠Plan Wisely Wealth Advisors⁠

Girlfriend, maybe you've been struggling with disordered eating for decades and you don't want to put your life on hold to go into a full-blown treatment facility. Maybe you have kids at home, aging parents to care for, or a career you can't walk away from. Or maybe you don't even know what options are available, so you just stay stuck thinking you'll manage it all by yourself. Girl, you weren't meant to do this alone. In this episode, host Lindsey Nichol breaks down the 6 different levels of eating disorder treatment and care - from outpatient support to acute medical stabilization - so you can understand what's available and what might be best for YOUR unique situation and life circumstances. Lindsey shares her own treatment journey through IOP and day treatment, and why finding the right level of care that fits your life is so important. Whether you're a busy mom, working woman, caregiver, or someone who simply can't leave home for residential treatment, this episode will help you understand all your options - including recovery coaching as a personalized support option. You deserve a life free from the chains of disordered eating. And it starts with knowing what treatment options are out there. In This Episode, You'll Learn: The 6 Levels of Eating Disorder Treatment: Level 1: Outpatient Care What it is: Weekly sessions with a care team while living at home Who it's for: Those deemed medically stable who need ongoing support What's included: Dietitian, therapist, medical doctor, support groups Best for: Maintaining school, work, family life while getting treatment Level 2: Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) What it is: Multiple sessions per week in specialized settings Where it happens: Treatment centers or hospitals What's included: Group therapy, individual therapy, structured programming Lindsey's experience: This is where she spent the majority of her recovery Level 3: Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) / Day Treatment What it is: 5-6 days per week, 6-8 hours per day Structure: More intensive than outpatient, includes meals and therapies What happens: You return home in the evenings Lindsey's experience: Combined with IOP while in school - included therapies and support groups Level 4: Residential Treatment What it is: 24-hour care and supervision (inpatient experience) Who it's for: Those medically stable but requiring intensive support Where it happens: Medical hospitals, centers, or homelike facilities Structure: Full-time structured environment with comprehensive care Level 5: Inpatient Hospitalization What it is: Most appropriate for high-intensity medical/psychiatric needs Structure: 24-hour medical psychiatric facility Who it's for: Those not responding to other treatments, experiencing self-harm, severe depression, or needing intensive medical oversight Level 6: Acute Medical Stabilization What it is: The highest level of critical care for eating disorders Who it's for: Those medically unstable due to severity or medical complications Primary focus: Physical stabilization before moving to other treatment levels Plus: Recovery Coaching as a Treatment Option What it is: One-on-one virtual support for guided accountability and actionable recovery steps Who it's for: Those who can't or won't go into residential but need support How it works: Weekly sessions focused on action, not diagnosis Can be layered: Works alongside therapy, dietitian, and medical care Key Takeaways: ✨ Treatment is personalized - what works for someone else may not work for you, and that's okay ✨ You don't have to choose residential - there are multiple levels of care that allow you to stay home ✨ Recovery is NOT black and white - you can get support at various levels based on your life circumstances ✨ You weren't meant to do this alone - even if you can't go to residential, you need SOME level of support ✨ Everyone's recovery is their own - your journey is unique and valid regardless of which level of care you choose ✨ Recovery coaching is a valid option - especially when layered with other care team members ✨ You owe you, sister - putting yourself first isn't selfish, it's necessary ✨ More options exist now - compared to years ago, there are so many more treatment options available Powerful Quotes from This Episode: "You deserve a life that's free from the chains of disordered eating" "Maybe you don't even know what options are available for you, so you just stay here thinking you're gonna manage it all by yourself" "Everyone's recovery is your recovery. Your journey is your journey" "What's best for you might not be best for me. What worked for me might not work for someone else" "You weren't meant to do life alone. You definitely weren't meant to do the hard things alone" "You owe you, sister" "It's not black and white. There's so many other options" "What matters is that you're standing up for you" "You are worth it. You deserve it" "Everyone else in your life is gonna benefit when you can start putting you first" Important Information About Each Treatment Level: When to Consider Outpatient: You're medically stable You can maintain work/school/family responsibilities You need ongoing support and accountability You're in maintenance or relapse prevention phase When to Consider IOP: You need more structure than weekly appointments You can still live at home You benefit from group support You need multiple therapy modalities When to Consider PHP/Day Treatment: You need daily structure but can return home at night You require meal support You need more intensive care than IOP You're transitioning from residential or preventing residential When to Consider Residential: You need 24-hour support but are medically stable Your home environment isn't supportive of recovery You need complete immersion in treatment Outpatient options haven't been effective When to Consider Inpatient: You're experiencing severe symptoms There's self-harm or suicidal ideation You need medical and psychiatric oversight You require the highest level of structure When to Consider Recovery Coaching: You can't or won't do residential treatment You have kids, aging parents, or career obligations You want actionable support, not diagnosis You're looking for relapse prevention You want to layer support with existing care team What Makes Recovery Coaching Different: Not therapy: Coaches don't diagnose or address trauma - they focus on forward action Accountability structure: Weekly sessions keep you committed to your recovery goals Actionable support: Focused on practical steps like facing fear foods, getting off the scale, eating out with family Virtual and flexible: Fits into busy lives with kids, work, caregiving responsibilities Layered care: Works alongside dietitians, therapists, and medical professionals Relapse prevention: Helps maintain recovery after intensive treatment Questions to Ask When Choosing Treatment: What level of medical stability am I at currently? What are my life circumstances? (Kids, work, caregiving, school) Can I leave home for treatment, or do I need to stay local? What treatment options are available in my area? What does my insurance cover? Do I need 24-hour support or can I manage with weekly sessions? Am I willing to commit to doing the work required at each level? What has or hasn't worked for me in the past? Do I have a support system at home? What does my healthcare team recommend? Action Steps After This Episode: Assess where you are: Are you medically stable? What symptoms are you experiencing? Talk to a healthcare professional: Schedule appointments with your doctor to discuss which level of care is appropriate Research local options: Google treatment centers, IOP programs, PHP programs in your area Consider online options: Virtual recovery coaching, online support groups, telehealth therapy Build your care team: Even if you can't do residential, assemble support (dietitian, therapist, coach, doctor) Stop doing this alone: Commit to getting SOME level of support starting today Reach out: If recovery coaching interests you, visit lindseynickel.com to learn more Who This Episode Is For: This episode is essential listening if you: Don't know what eating disorder treatment options exist Think residential is your only option (and you can't do it) Have been doing this alone and need to know what help is available Are a busy mom, working woman, or caregiver who can't leave home Have been in treatment before and need to know what's next Are researching options for a loved one struggling with disordered eating Want to understand the difference between IOP, PHP, and residential Need permission to choose the treatment level that fits YOUR life Are looking for alternatives to inpatient treatment Want to layer recovery coaching with your existing care team Resources Mentioned: National Alliance for Eating Disorders: Information on treatment levels and resources National Eating Disorders Association (NEDA): Comprehensive treatment information and support Recovery Coaching with Lindsey: One-on-one virtual support, weekly sessions, actionable recovery tools Her Best Self Facebook Community: Support group for women in recovery Important Reminder: Lindsey is NOT a medical professional.

  Episode Title: How To Appraoch The Enneagram? Introduction In this episode, we sit down with Ev, a coach and long-time student of the Enneagram who has spent years helping men uncover who they really are beneath the roles, habits, and masks they wear. The Enneagram isn't about putting you in a box — it's about showing you the box you've been living in and how to get out. Ev shares how the Enneagram has shaped his own journey, giving him language for the patterns that once ran on autopilot. This episode kicks off a conversation that many men in Authentic Men's Group (AMG) will resonate with: How do I Appraoch the Enneagram? What Is the Enneagram? The Enneagram is a powerful framework for self-understanding. It maps out nine core personality patterns, each driven by a unique motivation, fear, and desire.  Here's what's important for men to remember when diving into this tool: Avoid labeling others. The Enneagram is not a weapon or a way to diagnose. It's an invitation to empathy — for yourself and others. You are not just one number. Think of your Enneagram DNA: your main type interacts with other types, creating a unique internal ecosystem. Your core type remains steady over time. While your behaviors may shift as you grow, your deeper motivations often stay consistent. For men who are doing the work, the Enneagram helps you understand why you do what you do — not just what you do. Levels of the Enneagram: Growth and Decline Ev walks us through how each Enneagram type operates across levels of health — from your best, most grounded self to your most reactive and disconnected state. Understanding these levels gives men a roadmap. You begin to notice when you're slipping into old patterns or losing touch with your core values. Instead of judging yourself, you get curious: What's driving this? What am I trying to protect? This awareness is where transformation begins. The goal isn't perfection — it's presence. Practical Application for Men At AMG, we use the Enneagram as a mirror, not a mask. Here's how to start: Identify your top three types. Early on, don't stress about "nailing it." Start by exploring what resonates the most and why. Learn your type's levels of health. Every type has a spectrum — from grounded to stressed. Learn to recognize your signals at each level. Observe, don't obsess. The Enneagram is meant to increase awareness, not self-judgment. Notice patterns, name them, and bring them into group discussions. Invite others in. Be vulnerabkle and real with your awarenesses. Ask for feedback from your AMG group, coach, counselor, or a trusted partner or friend.  This is where the real growth happens — in conversation, reflection, and shared honesty among men doing the work together. Closing Reflection The Enneagram isn't just a personality test — it's a spiritual mirror. It helps men see not just who they are, but how they're showing up. When we approach it with humility and curiosity, it becomes a roadmap to freedom rather than a fixed identity. As Ev reminds us, "You don't grow by changing who you are. You grow by becoming more aware of who you've always been."

There are record levels of money market funds, but it doesn't mean quite what you think. Today we also explore recent market volatility sparked by Trump's brief tariff announcement and a sharp crypto sell-off that triggered stop-loss cascades. We also analyze seasonal trends, the rotation from mega-cap tech into value and small-cap stocks, and why most active managers underperformed the S&P 500 this year. We talk the importance of diversification, understanding risk tolerance, and viewing corrections as part of normal market cycles rather than reasons to panic. We discuss... Markets experienced sharp volatility following Trump's brief tariff announcement and a cascading crypto sell-off. How stop-loss triggers and algorithmic trading can amplify short-term market moves. Gold and silver pullbacks are healthy corrections within a long-term bullish thesis on precious metals. Portfolio allocation and risk management are critical to surviving sharp market drawdowns. Seasonal patterns are examined and late-year volatility can set up strong year-end rallies. Underperformance of active managers relative to the S&P 500 comes from narrow market leadership. Don't chase short-term moves, instead focus on long-term positioning. We explore how investor psychology and herd behavior can magnify both rallies and declines. The episode touched on how retail investors often get whipsawed when reacting emotionally to news-driven moves. The conversation compared current market sentiment to prior bubbles in meme stocks and crypto. Diversification is the best protection against unpredictable volatility events. How market manipulation and liquidity gaps can distort short-term price signals. The discussion linked rising geopolitical uncertainty with the growing appeal of hard assets. We underscore the importance of having a clear thesis and sticking to it through market noise. Volatility should be viewed as opportunity, not danger, for prepared investors.

In this episode, Eric and Brian kick off the week with a look at the SPX options market, recent price action, and key gamma levels heading into FOMC week. Eric recaps his recent put credit spread trades from Alpha Crunching, discusses how he's managing new positions into record highs, and explains how he's balancing bullish exposure with call credit spreads and discretionary hedges.

Have you ever wondered what it's like to practice Addiction Medicine? In this episode I speak about what we do in Addiction Medicine - both generally as well as how we do things in our practice on the Central Coast of California. I share how our clinic treats substance use with low‑barrier access, kind care, peer support, and long‑acting injectables while partnering with therapists to address trauma and ADHD that often drive relapse. I also review two cases that reveal how PTSD and undiagnosed ADHD change the treatment plan and the outcome.Topics Discussed:• What an addiction medicine visit includes  • Medications for alcohol and opioid use disorder  • The "three‑legged stool" of meds, therapy, and groups to treat addiction• Levels of care and smooth transitions  • Dual diagnosis as the rule, not the exception  • Low‑barrier access through walk‑ins and telemedicine  • Person‑first language to reduce stigma  • Peer support as lived‑experience expertise  • Long‑acting injectables to boost adherence  • Mobile street medicine and carceral care partnershipsTo contact Dr. Grover: ammadeeasy@fastmail.com

The Age of Pisces was defined by a conservative adherence to lineage and tradition, since the deepest spiritual knowledge was never written down, but secretly transmitted from master to disciple. Only initiated candidates could receive tutelage under the auspices of a qualified adept, whereby the mysteries of esoteric religion were discreetly communicated from mouth to ear. While an effective model in the previous era, such guru yoga is obsolete today, given the prevalence and intensity of problems associated with degenerated traditions and misguided leaders. It is more safe and reliable to engage in the Aquarian dispensation: freely distributed knowledge, the development of spiritual autonomy, and self-reliance on the teaching, not blind obedience to a teacher or group. The Aquarian influence encourages both community and independence, supported through personal verification of any teaching. This is also without disregarding the value of qualified initiates and the sacrifices they have made for the spiritual evolution of humanity. See how through an exploration of an esoteric holiday (October 27th, 1954) known to gnostics as the Advent of Samael, as well as some direct warnings Samael Aun Weor made about the dangers of following terrestrial and “spiritual” personalities.

The journey goes from early 20th century aviation, to 1970s video game consoles like the Atari 2600, to the Nintendo 64 thumbstick in the 1990s, to what some consider the joystick's greatest implementation: the dual-thumbstick controller.This optimal interface has changed the game, and not just the video game. The modern dual-stick controller is now considered an MVP in the military, and in medicine.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

One SEGA employee chronicles the company's struggles the only way he knows how: by turning it into a game.San Francisco!

The final episode of Hidden Levels explores the story of SEGA developer Tez Okano and the bizarre, meta-game he created: Segagaga. Okano joined SEGA in 1992, witnessing firsthand the company's tumultuous experience in the "console wars" against Nintendo and Sony. In the mid-1990s, SEGA struggled to make hardware that kept up with its rivals. The SEGA CD, the 32X, and the Saturn were all commercial failures. For Okano and many developers at SEGA, the console wars were both an exciting time to be in the video game business but also an intense and stressful time. They worked long hours, slept at their desks, and faced relentless deadlines. And so Okano decided to turn the chaotic nature of his professional life into a low-budget, self-parodying game about making video games at SEGA. In Segagaga, the player is a young developer tasked with saving SEGA's market share from the rival DOGMA Corporation (a stand-in for Sony/PlayStation). The gameplay is a mix of a role-playing game (RPG) and a management simulator, where you recruit demoralized, mutant-like SEGA employees by convincing them to join your team for the lowest salary possible. The gameplay reflects the absurd reality of game development. Players can spend a long time creating an original, hit game or they can quickly make a bunch of trashy titles (or shovelware) that barely keeps the company afloat. Okano even told us that the insults characters used in "battles" were actual quotes he heard in the office. The game was finished in 2001, just as the highly anticipated Sony PlayStation 2 was effectively dooming SEGA's Dreamcast. As game journalist Simon Parkin notes, Segagaga was released only two weeks before SEGA exited the console business entirely. This timing transformed the game from a self-parody into a memorial for a dying era, inviting players to literally defeat SEGA's failed consoles as bosses. Though Okano's bizarre proposal was initially met with laughter by executives, the game ultimately got made and, in a strange twist, benefited from the company's decision to stop making video game hardware. Even in the face of industry chaos, some creators simply can't help but pour their love and energy into making games. Credits This episode was produced by Jayson De Leon and edited by Meg Cramer.

Video games are arguably the antithesis of nature; highly constructed worlds, synthetic, inorganic. If you grew up gaming, you may recall grown-ups telling you to shut down the console, go outside, and touch some grass. These days, though, touching grass isn't something you have to do outside. As gaming has grown into a 200 billion dollar industry, the boundary between screen and soil has muddied. New technologies and types of play are getting gamers ever-closer to the experience of real nature. And yet, in a kind of weird feedback loop, those same technologies and types of play meant to simulate nature are now changing the real thing in ways that could outlast us all.

Machinima — a portmanteau of “machine” and “cinema” — refers to movies filmed inside video games. The art form had a renaissance in the 1990s, and many thought it had a future in Hollywood. Among the early pioneers were the New York animation collective the Ill Clan, who puppeteered characters in real-time inside the video game Quake, bypassing traditional animation rendering. This technique exploded into a cultural phenomenon through the 2000s with hits like Red vs. Blue, South Park's Emmy-winning World of Warcraft episode, and This Spartan Life, a live talk show filmed inside Halo 2's unpredictable virtual world. However, machinima.com faced controversies and eventually shut down, erasing its archive and leaving many original artists sidelined. Today, machinima is experiencing a powerful resurgence in documentary filmmaking. Projects like Grand Theft Hamlet, filmed during the pandemic entirely within Grand Theft Auto 5, proved that sophisticated feature films could be created in active, real-time virtual environments. Award-winning documentaries like The Remarkable Life of Ibelin showcase the medium's emotional depth and its potential for democratizing creativity. What started as a technical workaround has evolved into a legitimate art form that continues to redefine the meaning of movies, and games.

Today, Stef Sanjati is a creator on YouTube with over half a million subscribers. Her content mostly focuses on her two greatest loves — makeup and gaming — often combining the two with her otherworldly video game-inspired beauty tutorials. Growing up in small-town Ontario, though, Stef was a quiet, introverted kid who was bullied a lot. For one thing, she looked different from her peers. Having been born with a rare genetic condition called Waardenburg Syndrome, Stef has several distinct physical features, including wide-set blue eyes and a natural streak of white hair. But there was something else that she didn't quite have the words for back then – something she felt closest to while playing as her favorite avatar in World of Warcraft, the massively multiplayer online role-playing game by Blizzard Entertainment. That something else was that Stef is trans. Choosing your player is a near-ubiquitous experience in gaming. Whether it's picking from a stock of ready-made options in Mario Kart or carefully calibrating a custom avatar in World of Warcraft, a gamer's choice of character has a huge impact on the gaming experience. But when a gamer is given the chance to choose, or even build, a brand new identity outside of the one they experience every day, the potential impact goes far beyond simple gameplay.
