Hello, Martinis and Your Money listeners! Whether you just found the show or were a longtime listener, I wanted to hop on here and share what's been happening in my life since I stopped recording new episodes at the end of 2024. As many of you know, in 2013, I founded the company Financial Gym and ran the company through good days and bad days until March 15th, 2025. On that date, I had the unthinkable happen to me, at least what was unthinkable to me. I had a mental health breakdown that led to me being taken from my home, pantsless, and in handcuffs. Yep, you heard that right. This type A overachiever had something unthinkable happen, and this was never a scenario that I had on my life bingo card. But yet, there I was, and that was the hand I was dealt. After three days in the institution, I knew I needed a break from work, so I put in for a mental health leave until May 1st. Immediately while I was on leave, the investors of the company decided to sell Financial Gym to a wealth management company run by two men.    For those of you who don't know me, I left Merrill Lynch in 2013 to create something different, and now all of my 12 years of life focused on serving the underserved and bringing change in their lives was erased, and I was being asked to move backward in time. It was a gut punch to say the least, but it was also an answer to prayers I had been praying, and that was the opportunity to take Financial Gym and financial wellness in a different direction.   It gave me the freedom to leave and start Collective Wellness Revival, a truly one-of-a-kind wellness company that I think we all need in our lives. I spent the last 12 years of my life in the most intimate way possible, diving deep into people's money habits and behaviors, and while I was doing that, I kept noticing the interconnectedness of financial wellness with the other areas of wellness, predominantly your physical and your mental wellness. There were many times where I almost felt it was wrong to offer people financial wellness, while also not offering them mental and physical wellness.    Well, three days in a mental institution actually also reminded me there's a fourth area of wellness, and that is your spiritual or soul level wellness, the area deep down inside most of us that we never get to attack because we're like hamsters on a wheel just trying to get through the surface level areas of life. But we are all beautiful and connected souls here for a reason but life “lifes” us, all of us really hard. And especially the last few months and our souls get lost in the process. I've realized that I've been on my own soul discovery journey for the past 17 years. And in the past five months, since I left my Gym journey, I've been given the gift to truly learn, know, and understand the soul behind Shannon. I knew I wanted to create a company like this for years, and I'm grateful for three powerhouse women stepping in and stepping up to help me launch the first stage of this company, which is a one-of-a-kind, one-on-one coaching program.   For one monthly fee, you can work on any area of wellness you choose. Every wellness journey is unique, and now you can explore all areas of your wellness: mind, body, money, and soul under one tent. And coaching is just the beginning. Our big goal is to grow a collective of like-minded women and our allies to support and encourage each other through these crazy and chaotic times we live in. This is the perfect time for everyone to work on the most epic project of our lives. And that's us. I think of the revival as the perfect place to work on Project YOU. Who are YOU? Why are YOU here? What do YOU want to do in life? Most of us are living who we think we are. Daughters, sisters, mothers, partners, co-workers, bosses, CEOs. But none of us, none of us are really these roles. They're just roles we get to play in this life. They're not really who we are. If you want to explore YOU deeper and work with me as a coach, you should check out the Soul House for what I'm calling Pneuma or Soul Level Coaching. If you liked my money coaching philosophy, wait till you discover my Soul Level Coaching. But also, if you loved my money coaching philosophy, you can still access it through the Revival and our Money House, led by my new friend Melanie and some other familiar faces.    Anywho, I hope you'll support me and the ladies by joining and taking advantage of our offering and helping us build this new collective. Martinis and Your Money listeners will always have access to founder member pricing, which starts at $100 a month. But we have limited spaces for this launch. So head over to or send friends to collectivewellnessrevival.com/coaching to sign up today.    And until next time everybody, cheers!   SIGN UP TODAY!!

So, you've built a team… but you're still the one putting out fires, making all the decisions, and carrying the whole business on your back.That's because most leadership models are built top-down. The founder makes the calls. The team waits for direction. And over time, the business becomes more dependent on you—not less.Keith Ferrazzi has spent two decades helping leaders break out of that trap. After coaching thousands of teams and running 3,000+ diagnostics, he found that leadership alone isn't enough. The highest-performing organizations operate through teamship—a shift from hierarchy to shared ownership, where teams push each other higher and drive results together.You might recognize Keith from his bestselling books like Never Eat Alone or Leading Without Authority. His latest book, Never Lead Alone, breaks down the 10 key shifts that help teams lead together, instead of leaning on one person to carry the load.In this episode, we get into what those shifts look like in real life. From peer-to-peer coaching to energy checks to open feedback loops, Keith shares the simple practices that help your team show up, take ownership, and lead alongside you—not behind you.3 of the biggest insights from Keith…#1.) The Peer Coaching Framework That Unlocked 50% Growth at MerrillKeith's 5-5-5 peer-to-peer coaching model helped Merrill Lynch advisors boost net new accounts by 50%—not through top-down management, but by creating safe, structured peer groups that crowdsource solutions and accelerate breakthroughs. It's a repeatable system any advisory team can implement to grow faster and smarter.#2.) Stop Leading Alone—Start Co-ElevatingKeith's newest book, Never Lead Alone, flips traditional leadership on its head. Instead of top-down command, he shows how elite teams grow faster when they hold each other accountable, run energy checks, and give honest feedback without fear. This is how teams co-elevate—and outperform.#3.) Why AI Will Replace Advisors Who Don't EvolveKeith doesn't sugarcoat it—AI is coming for the average advisor. But for those willing to lean in, it's a multiplier. Learn how to become a “black belt” in AI, build smarter communities, and use technology to deepen—not replace—your human relationships.SHOW NOTEShttps://bradleyjohnson.com/127FREE GIFT + JOIN THE DBDL INSIDER CREWToday's Gift: Get copies of Keith's book, "Never Eat Alone" AND "Never Lead Alone" [while supplies last]To get access to today's free gift AND become a DBDL Insider with VIP access to future resources and exclusive content, text "127" to 785-800-3235. *Message and data rates may apply.

Register here. ___________________________ It turns out that one of the hardest habits to break in retirement isn't work — it's saving. Richard Sheffield joins us to share his deeply personal and sometimes humorous story of transitioning from a performance-driven corporate career to a more intentional and enjoyable life in retirement. A former executive at UPS, and author of Spend Your Damn Retirement Money!: Beat the Spending Fear to Find Your Dream Retirement, Richard opens up about his struggle to shift from a lifelong saver's mindset to embracing enjoying the money he worked so hard to accumulate.

Eric's journey into the financial world was born from personal experience. Growing up, he watched his hardworking father battle a debilitating illness and saw the financial strain it placed on his family. It became clear to Eric that many hardworking professionals, like his parents, were navigating a complicated financial landscape without the personalized guidance they needed. This realization sparked his lifelong mission: to become the trusted advisor families could count on during life's most challenging moments. With a degree from the University of Rhode Island, Eric began his career at Merrill Lynch in Retirement Plan Services, laying the foundation for his expertise in long-term financial planning. He later joined Bloomberg, LP, where he deepened his knowledge and expanded his ability to deliver impactful financial solutions. Over the last 13 years, Eric has helped clients save millions in taxes and move confidently toward financial independence. What sets Eric apart is his empathy-driven approach. He takes the time to understand each client's unique story and crafts personalized strategies that align with their goals and values. His mission is to provide more than just financial advice—he offers clarity, security, and peace of mind, helping clients transform uncertainty into confidence and turn aspirations into lasting legacies.   During the show we discussed:  Tax planning vs. tax prep: the big misconception How tax strategy can save millions—and why few use it Real client example of proactive tax savings Why advisors must show up in tough times, not just wins Common financial traps before hiring an advisor The overlooked human side of financial advising Balancing ambition and risk in high-stakes decisions An investment to avoid—and the reason behind it Why one-size-fits-all advice is risky Crafting strategies based on life, not just income How empathy shapes better financial plans   Resources: https://www.emangold.com/

One of the things I really liked about my plan to go directly from a full-time work in journalism for a big company to being on my own and trying something that no one was asking me to do, was that I didn't know I would be devoted to the process.

In the world of leadership, influence, and workplace culture, few things are more delicate—and more impactful—than how feedback is delivered. As a keynote speaker who's worked with countless organizations, I've seen firsthand how a single comment can change the tone of an entire event.

Now that's a psychological term, but essentially what it means is to imagine what you might be, what you could be, and to go beyond the daydream to take some sort of action on possible selves. So that means if, let's say I'm pivoting in a career, take a course or shadow someone, or do an informational interview. Don't just like sit with it and cogitate. You've got to  get out of your own brain.” - Joanne Lipman On Purpose & Meaning "Purpose or meaning actually requires challenge and trauma and hardship and pain – and actually requires unhappiness paradoxically. So these are kind of complicated phenomena, but altogether, everybody can get better at getting happy if you've got the knowledge and skills.” - Arthur Brooks On Relationships "The finding that we talk about most in our book, The Good Life, is that it's very clear across this 86 years of research, and hundreds of papers,

In this inspiring episode, Bart Berkey sits down with Gavin Mlinar, CEO of Blacklisted Consulting and author of Yes, Your Way to Success. Why Don't You? Gavin shares the remarkable story of how his upbringing, mindset, and resilience have driven him to negotiate billion-dollar contracts, become an endurance athlete, and launch his own company—all through one key trait: decisiveness. Together, they unpack what it takes to keep going when most people quit, and how to act with confidence even when conditions aren't perfect.Major Takeaways / Learnings:1. Most People Don't Ask… But Gavin Does. Gavin landed on this podcast simply by reaching out with authenticity and persistence—something most people don't do.2. Rejection is Practice. Cold-calling 100 people a day at Merrill Lynch taught Gavin to normalize “no.” He reframed rejection as part of the process, not a signal to stop.3. Decisiveness Is a Superpower. According to his book coach (also a therapist), Gavin is one of the most decisive people they've ever met—and that's what makes him different.4. Forget Perfect—Take Action. Waiting for the perfect moment or perfect plan often leads to stagnation. Gavin encourages forward momentum over perfectionism.5. Two Steps to Progress: 1) Research and validate through resources and conversations. 2) Make a decision, take action, and adjust along the way.6. Ask for Help. Often. Most people don't ask—but most people are predisposed to help when asked. Gavin encourages breaking through that hesitation.7. Effort + Attitude = Progress. Gavin teaches his kids—and lives himself—by these two values. You don't need perfection, just consistent energy and a positive mindset.Memorable Quotes:1. “Most people don't ask for help. But most people are predisposed to help when asked.” – Gavin Mlinar2. “There are very few things in life that are final. Failure is just learning in disguise.” – Gavin3. “You get to wake up early.

This episode of In Stride is presented by The Eventing Series by Natalie Keller Reinert and Flatiron Books. You can find The Eventing Series books in paperback, ebook, and audiobook wherever books are sold. Follow Natalie Keller Reinert on Instagram at @NatalieKReinert. In this episode of “In Stride,” Sinead is joined by international 5* event rider Sally Cousins. Sally Cousins is an accomplished FEI 5* international event rider and was the USEA Leading Lady Rider for six consecutive years (2008–2013). She began riding as a young child after her family purchased a farm in Oxford, Pennsylvania, and quickly found her passion through Pony Club and the sport of eventing. By her mid-teens, Sally had completed her first one-star three-day event, and at just 20 years old, she traveled to England to compete at the prestigious Badminton Horse Trials. She remained in the UK that year and went on to complete the Burghley Horse Trials later that season. In addition to her riding career, Sally spent 16 years working as a stockbroker at Merrill Lynch before deciding to turn professional and commit fully to eventing. Today, she operates Sally Cousins Eventing, training horses and riders out of her bases in South Carolina and Pennsylvania. In this episode, Sally reflects on the choices and philosophies that have shaped her decades-long career in eventing, including: • How being strategic about which events she entered helped her horses stay sound and competitive for longer. • Why she's never hesitated to withdraw a horse at the last minute if they weren't ready, prioritizing their well-being over competition goals. • What led her to leave a successful 16-year career as a stockbroker to pursue horses full-time. • The importance of building a trusting relationship with each horse and following her gut when deciding whether to push forward or hold back. Join Sally and Sinead in this thoughtful conversation about longevity, horsemanship, and the mindset behind a sustainable career in the sport.

My guest on the show today is Jerome, Portfolio Manager at Uzo Capital. Jerome brings a unique lens to public equity investing—shaped by his experience on the equity trading floor at Merrill Lynch during the financial crisis, his global perspective, and a profitable venture in music royalties. In this episode, we dive into Jerome's barbell investment approach: pairing stable, cash-generative compounders with higher-risk, venture-style bets in the public markets. He walks us through how he identifies “asymmetric” opportunities—where the upside far outweighs the downside—particularly in companies that are either undiscovered or undergoing transformational change. Jerome also shares how his music royalty business, which generates steady, recurring cash flow, provides the emotional and financial runway to take bold swings on high-risk, high-reward ideas. He discusses how this foundation enables him to withstand volatility and dig deeper into ideas that others may overlook. We cover a lot in this conversation—from PLBY, McCoy Global, and Comstock, to his thesis around durable, capital-light growth businesses and the importance of identifying "free call options" within complex situations. Jerome also lays out a thoughtful framework for due diligence and portfolio sizing that helps manage both risk and conviction. And for full disclosure, we discussed a number of companies during today's podcast. I am not a shareholder in any of them.
