As a newly installed chairman takes the helm of the Federal Reserve, US monetary policy remains uncertain amid a soft inflation print and escalating tensions in the Middle East. David Mericle, chief US economist in Goldman Sachs Research, forecasts the Fed to keep interest rates unchanged this year before cutting its policy rate in 2027. He also unpacks the factors driving US inflation, highlights the surprising resilience of the US labor market, and explains why he expects US GDP to expand around 2% this year.  Recorded on July 20, 2026.

If you've been paying attention to points and miles this year and something has felt off, like the ground keeps shifting under the rules you thought you understood, you are not imagining it.   I'm joined again by my good friend and points expert, Kevin Zanes, to make sense of it all. We are hitting pause at the halfway mark of the year to ask what the biggest stories in points, miles, and award travel have really been so far, and more importantly, what those changes tell us about where this whole hobby is headed. This year hasn't just brought the usual devaluations we all expect. It has brought step changes big enough to make both of us reconsider strategies we've relied on for years.   Kevin and I each picked our top three stories and compared notes. We get into the Hyatt award chart overhaul and whether chasing Globalist status still makes sense, the new Qatar restrictions on booking award flights for family and friends, the three new Bilt cards and how they reshuffled where our everyday spend goes, and the way United is now tying its best award space and discounts to holding a co-branded card. I also walk through the Chase change I'm most worried about, a differential transfer ratio to Hyatt that depends on which card you hold, and why I think it could open a floodgate. Listen in as we spend just as much time looking forward as back, on super currencies, newer players like Symphony and Rove, and the rise of the co-branded airline card as a value multiplier.   Whether you've been collecting points for a decade or you just opened your first card, this one is less about the headlines and more about reading the trends underneath them, so you can decide where your own time and attention are actually worth spending for the rest of the year.   Earn up to 5,000 bonus points for opening and funding a new Symphony account here.   Get full show notes and transcript: https://pointmetofirstclass.com/2026-points-miles-mid-year-review    Eager to learn the secrets of award travel so that you can turn your expenses into unforgettable experiences?

It's hard to believe we're already halfway through 2026. One thing I've learned over the years is that time is going to keep moving whether we're paying attention or not. That's why I've made it a habit to set annual goals, revisit them regularly, and share my progress publicly. At the end of 2025, I shared my personal and business goals for 2026. Now that we've reached the halfway point of the year, it's time for a check-in. In this episode, I'm giving you a behind-the-scenes look at what's working, what's not, what goals are on track, and where I need to refocus for the second half of the year. We'll talk about everything from health goals and reducing stress to business growth, podcast downloads, content creation, and the realities of running a business in today's economy. My hope is that this episode encourages you to pause and do your own mid-year review. Because sometimes the most powerful thing you can do is stop, reflect, and make intentional adjustments before the year gets away from you.   In this episode, we discuss: Progress toward my personal health and wellness goals What I've learned about slowing down, reducing stress, and prioritizing recovery My progress toward maxing out my Roth IRA in 2026 Why my honeymoon and wedding plans have shifted Efforts to reduce screen time and be more intentional with technology What the first half of 2026 has taught me about managing a full life The current state of City Girl Savings and our business goals Revenue, profitability, and navigating economic uncertainty Podcast growth, content creation, and audience building Why consistency matters even when results take longer than expected The mindset I'm carrying into the second half of the year   This episode is especially helpful if you: Set goals at the beginning of the year and haven't revisited them Feel behind on your personal or financial goals Want motivation to reset and refocus for the second half of the year Are working toward health, money, or business goals Need a reminder that progress isn't always linear Want a realistic look at what goal pursuit actually looks like   Why this matters: Too many people treat goals like a January activity. They set ambitious intentions, get excited for a few weeks, and then never revisit them until December. But real progress happens when you're willing to check in honestly along the way. A mid-year review isn't about judging yourself for what hasn't happened yet. It's about recognizing what's working, acknowledging what needs adjustment, and deciding how you want to move forward. Some goals will be ahead of schedule. Some will be behind. Some may need to change entirely. That's not failure. That's life. The goal isn't perfection. The goal is staying engaged with the life you're trying to build. Often, the willingness to reassess and adjust is what ultimately creates the results you're looking for.   Timestamps: [02:21] Raya breaks down her progress on her first personal goal of 2026 – improving her health for long-term functioning. This goal was harder to measure, but indicators of growth exist. [06:03] Raya's honeymoon and courthouse wedding timeframe has been pushed out. This goal likely will not be achieved in 2026.  [10:57] After 5 months of no breaks in daily workouts, Raya learned she needs to prioritize recovery (which means more frequent traveling)! [14:36] A business goal is to increase newsletter growth by 20%. Currently, this goal is trending about 4%. Raya shares things that can help improve this before the year ends.   Resources Mentioned: Episode #209: My Personal and Business Goals for 2026 Request a free money call with Raya City Girl Savings Personal Finance Portfolio Financial Focus Coaching Program   If you've been feeling behind on your goals, consider this your reminder that there's still plenty of year left. You don't need to wait until January to reset. You don't need a perfect first half of the year to have a strong second half. The truth is, most meaningful progress doesn't happen in a straight line. Some goals move faster than expected. Others take longer. Some priorities shift completely because life shifts. One of the biggest lessons I've learned over the years is that goals aren't just about achieving an outcome. They're about who you become in the process. They're about building consistency, learning from setbacks, making adjustments, and continuing to move forward even when things don't go exactly according to plan. So if you've fallen behind in an area of your life, give yourself permission to be honest about where you are without judging yourself for it. Then decide what the next best step looks like from here. Maybe that means recommitting to a goal. Maybe it means adjusting the goal. Maybe it means celebrating progress you've overlooked because you're too focused on what hasn't happened yet. Whatever your situation, don't let the first half of the year determine the second half. Take time to reflect. Acknowledge how far you've come. Make the adjustments you need to make. Then keep building. Remember: You are not behind…you are building. Consistency compounds. The steady work you're doing now is shaping your next level.

Healing doesn't always begin with answers. Sometimes it begins with finally feeling safe enough to ask the questions.In Part 2 of this Heavyweight Collective conversation, the crew explores therapy, grief, personal routines, and the everyday practices that support emotional well-being. Through honest stories and thoughtful reflection, they discuss the fears surrounding therapy, the value of being truly heard, and the many ways people find healing outside the therapist's office.The episode also reflects on creativity, faith, music, discipline, and the habits that quietly build resilience over time. More than anything, this conversation reminds listeners that healing isn't about becoming someone new—it's about becoming more honest with who you already are.Tap in With US! Thanks for tapping in with The Heavyweight Collective! Make sure you follow, subscribe, and share with someone who needs this convo.

Mid-Year Check-In: Recalibrate Your Goals, Priorities & Momentum | Further Your Lifestyle Ep. 268Watch here: https://youtu.be/FUvWIWmUrLcChris hosts Episode 268 of the Further Your Lifestyle podcast as a mid-year check-in to help listeners pause, breathe, and recalibrate without self-judgment. He guides a reality-based self-audit through key questions: what has improved, what feels heavier, what lessons keep repeating, whether daily actions match stated priorities, what you've been tolerating, and whether you're truly moving forward or just staying busy. He then focuses on recalibration—what burdens to stop carrying, what deserves more attention, and whether repeating the last six months would make you happy. Chris offers three paths: if you're winning, double down and compound; if drifting, recommit now; if struggling, simplify and focus on one next step. He emphasizes meaningful progress, self-comparison only, and shares a business turnaround example, including managing micro vs. macro factors like shipping cost increases.00:00 Midyear Check In01:29 Reality Check Questions03:48 Alignment With Priorities06:12 Busy Versus Progress06:59 Recalibrate And Let Go08:28 Focus Your Attention10:13 Next Six Months Test10:51 Winning Drifting Struggling12:30 Make The Year Meaningful13:56 Second Half Mindset14:38 Personal Business Example16:17 Wrap Up And ChallengePodcast Sponsors:Robert PiperHi Voltage BargainsEthan “Rooshock” The BOLO Hunter PODCAST: https://www.furtheryourlifestyle.com/► SUBSCRIBE to the podcast on▹ Spotify | https://bit.ly/FYL_Spotify▹ Apple Podcast | https://bit.ly/FYL_Apple▹ Google Podcast | https://bit.ly/FYL_GooglePod► Let's CONNECT on social media:▹ instagram | http://www.instagram.com/furtheryourlifestyle▹ email | hello@furtheryourlifestyle.comMUSIC:» via https://www.epidemicsound.com/referral/6hfvrvContinue the conversation:  @furtheryourlifestyleJoin the Newsletter: check it out

For this week's Friday episode, we decided to tackle some listener blinds and do a midyear update. We discuss favorite things we've tasted this year, memorable episodes, and speculate on bourbon trends. There are a host of other topics that we get into as well. The episode finishes with an epic pour that is a top bourbon of all time for Kenny. It's been a minute since we just chilled and sipped without an an agenda.

Share your midlife reinvention story with us HERE.You have a plan for how to succeed in the second half of the year, how to “get back on track.” And a plan, it turns out, is the most sophisticated way to actually stand still while feeling like you're moving.This is Part 2 of a special two-part midyear series on Good Life Project. In Part 1, Jonathan led a different kind of honest check-in, setting down the scorecard version of taking stock and actually looking at the one part of life that has been running quietly low. This episode is the moving part. It's about taking action and building momentum, without waiting for a plan.In this episode, you'll explore:Why plans fail, and why the reason is not the one you've been told. The flaw isn't you. It's how plans are built.The difference between a plan and a move, and why only one of them has ever actually changed a life.Seven elements that make a move more likely to survive a bad week, including Peter Gollwitzer's research on implementation intentions.The four traps that turn a move back into a plan, and how to recognize them before they happen.Why the middle of the year is one of the most powerful fresh start landmarks available, and almost nobody uses it.A five-step sequence you'll work through before this episode ends, leaving with a specific move already made, not planned.This episode is for anyone who has spent the first half of this year meaning to do something and hasn't yet. Not because you lacked motivation, but because you were waiting for the right conditions that were never going to arrive. They don't have to. You just have to make one move.Episode TranscriptIf you LOVED this episode, you can find the 1-page worksheet HERE.Next week, I'm sitting down with an old friend, Jessica Ortner, to explore something that most people have never tried, that looks a little ridiculous at first, and that turns out to have a surprisingly serious body of research behind it. It's called tapping. We're not going to sell it, and we're not going to dismiss it. We're going to give it a genuinely honest look: what the science does and doesn't support, who it's actually for, and then Jessica is going to guide me through a real session, live, on the episode that you can follow along with in real time.

The year is half over. How many of the goals you set in January have actually moved? In this solo episode of Harder Than Life, Kelly Siegel delivers a midyear wake-up call for anyone feeling behind, stuck, unmotivated, or frustrated by a lack of progress. Kelly challenges a hard truth: sometimes we don't miss our goals because we lack potential. We miss them because our daily actions have been more aligned with comfort, avoidance, and staying busy than with the results we say we want. This episode breaks down why motivation follows action, how your calendar reveals your real priorities, and why goals without systems rarely survive discomfort. With 26 weeks left in the year, Kelly introduces the Siegel Second Half System—a practical framework for auditing the first six months, resetting your identity, choosing three focused priorities, removing what drains your progress, and building momentum through consistent weekly review. If your New Year's goals have stalled, this episode is your reminder that the year isn't over. You still have time to change your body, mindset, business, habits, and direction—but the reset starts now, not Monday. Key Topics:

The first half of the year may be behind us, but the cosmos still has plenty in store. This week, Dr. Joy is joined by astrologer Camille Michelle Gray to explore the major astrological themes that will shape the rest of 2026. Together, they chat about the biggest transits, retrogrades, and discuss how these cosmic movements may influence everything from our relationships and careers to our personal growth and our shared experiences. Whether you're someone who checks your birth chart regularly or you're simply curious about what astrology has to say, Camille breaks down the season ahead in a way that's insightful and accessible. She explains what these astrological shifts can teach us, how to navigate periods of uncertainty with intention, and why understanding the energy of the moment can help us make more empowered decisions. Plus, Camille shares sign-by-sign guidance for the remainder of the year, highlighting what each zodiac sign should prioritize, where opportunities for growth and transformation may emerge, and what lessons the stars may be inviting us to embrace as 2026 unfolds.

The month of July announces the second half of the year's beginning, and yet, it doesn't rush ahead. It is as if time stands still for about four weeks before picking up pace with August's arrival, and then September rapidly moves time along at the pace we seem to follow for ten months of the year. Because of this sensation of time slowing down, I find myself physically permitting myself to slow down as well. To linger, to rest, and then, as a result, having the space to ponder all that leaps into the forefront of my mind, asking me to entertain in some way, figure out how to bring it into my life to add to the symphony that already is. After all, any instrument that is frequently used and appreciated needs to be maintained. So, while this will involve new ideas, it will also be reminders of what is already contributing to the life we love living, so we are deepening our awareness and thus reminded to appreciate what already is going well. How we do that is by slowing down, shifting into a lower, toodling-along gear for more than a day or a weekend. Whenever you are able to begin shifting down into a slower pace, today's post/episode is an invitation to sink into your being, rest your mind and then observe where it wishes to go, what tickles the curiosity. Let July be the month that reminds you that you can refuse to live the life that the world says you should want and instead build a life that makes you infinitely content and joyously happy. Let July provide the time and space to ponder what that life consists of.

In this episode, Drs. Drew Brannon and Gabriela Caviedes explore a challenge nearly everyone faces: goal drift. Despite our best intentions, life gets busy, priorities shift, and the goals we set often fade into the background. Drew and Gabby discuss why this happens, common misconceptions about discipline and motivation, and a practical framework for getting back on track. If you've lost momentum on a personal or professional goal, this conversation will help you reset, realign, and recommit to what matters most.

In this episode, we break down the current refrigerated freight market, the massive rate spikes coming out of California, and the mid-season produce update! Joined by Cody Koehler from A&Z Trucking, our discussion focuses on the real-world operational challenges of managing a reefer fleet, including the impact of safety check weeks on truck capacity and the critical differences between non-domiciled and illegal CDL drivers.  We also explain how smart brokers can protect customers from market volatility through strong, dedicated carrier relationships built on fast payments, easy tracking, and mutual respect!   About Cody Koehler Cody is a 21-year veteran in supply chain/logistics. He has done just about everything in this industry minus holding his CDL (he did drive a yard dog though). In his current role, he oversees the sales and marketing teams for A&Z trucking, a 20-year old brokerage that specializes in produce and reefer freight, as well as cold storage and cross docking.   Connect with Cody LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/cody-koehler-1a922b162/  Website: https://aandztrucking.com/  Email: info@aandztrucking.com  

In this mid-year outlook episode of Facts vs Feelings, Ryan Detrick, Chief Market Strategist at Carson Group, and Sonu Varghese, Chief Macro Strategist at Carson Group, revisit their 2026 forecast and explain why they've raised their S&P 500 target from 12-15% to 15-18% for the year, while holding bonds steady at 3-5%. They walk through how AI capex has become a macroeconomic story as much as a market one, contributing roughly 90 basis points per quarter to real GDP growth, and why hyperscaler spending plans for 2026 and 2027 keep getting revised sharply higher.The conversation covers the labor market's quiet resilience, why business creation data suggests confidence rather than desperation, an inflation picture that isn't going away despite market expectations for Fed rate hikes, and a sector rotation story where former "value" stocks like Micron have become momentum plays almost overnight. Ryan and Sonu also dig into earnings estimate revisions, midterm-year volatility patterns, diversifiers like gold and managed futures, and swap stories from their World Cup travels before previewing next week's guest.[Key Takeaways]Carson raised its 2026 S&P 500 target from 12-15% to 15-18% at the midpoint of the year, with the index already up 11% total return year-to-date; bonds remain forecast at 3-5%.AI-related hardware and software investment (excluding data centers) has contributed about 45% of real GDP growth over the last five quarters, roughly 90 basis points per quarter.Hyperscaler capex estimates keep climbing: the five largest tech spenders were projected to spend $470 billion in 2026 back in November; that figure is now $740 billion, with 2027 estimates rising from $530 billion to nearly $900 billion.S&P 500 2026 EPS estimates have risen from $308 to $339 a share (up 10%) since the start of the year, with 2027 estimates up 12%, led by technology, energy, and materials.The labor market shows underlying strength despite headline softness, with unemployment at 4.2%, average payroll growth around 110,000 a month, and falling continuing claims.Inflation remains sticky due to incomplete tariff pass-through, reshoring-related cost increases, and rising computer/software prices, a reversal from the deflationary tech trends of the 1990s.Jump to:0:00 - Welcome And The Midyear Setup1:45 - Why We Raised The Stock Target5:38 - AI Spending Shows Up In GDP9:44 - The Consumer Looks Better Than Feels14:20 - Business Creation As A Confidence Signal17:08 - The Real Leaders Inside “Tech”18:53 - Earnings Keep Getting Revised Higher27:03 - The Inflation Problem Isn't Gone31:06 - The Fed Pause Versus Hike Pricing35:00 - Second-Half Equity Playbook And Rotation42:19 - Volatility, Breadth, And Midterm Patterns49:06 - Bonds, Oil Headlines, Gold, Diversifiers52:55 - World Cup Travel Notes And Wrap-Up57:08 - DisclosuresConnect with Ryan:• LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ryandetrick/• X: https://x.com/RyanDetrickConnect with Sonu:• LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sonu-varghese-phd/• X: https://x.com/sonusvarghese?lang=enQuestions about the show?

The meeting focused on a mid-year reset presentation led by Barry, who discussed the importance of recalibrating goals and maintaining momentum in the second half of 2026. Barry emphasized the need to reignite vision, refocus purpose, and avoid the discouragement of feeling behind on goals. He encouraged participants to ask themselves about dreams they stopped pursuing, goals they quietly lowered, and promises they broke to themselves. Barry highlighted common reasons goals fail, such as distractions, lack of tracking, and emotional fatigue, and stressed the importance of pivoting when necessary due to market changes. He used analogies like GPS recalibration and airplane course adjustments to illustrate the need for ongoing adaptation. Barry also discussed the value of consistency, discipline, and focusing on personal growth to achieve goals, urging participants to concentrate on who they need to become rather than just what they need to do. The presentation concluded with a reminder that the year is not over and that now is the time to make necessary adjustments for a strong finish.

We are over halfway through 2026, which honestly feels a little unreal...like, where did the first six months of the year go?

The year is not over — but it is moving. In part one of the Mid-Year Money Check-In, Shari looked at cash flow, cash reserves, savings, investing, retirement accounts, and whether your money is actually doing what you want it to do. Now in part two, we are looking ahead. Because a lot of financial stress does not come from true surprises. It comes from predictable things that did not have a plan. Taxes. Holiday spending. Travel. Family obligations. Home projects. Insurance premiums. Lifestyle creep. Charitable giving. Year-end decisions. The things you keep saying you will deal with later. In this episode, Shari walks through the second half of your mid-year strategy check-in so you can stop letting predictable expenses, vague goals, and delayed decisions sneak up on you. This is not about budgeting because you are broke. This is about lifestyle planning because your life costs money — and your money deserves direction. You'll learn: Why tax planning should not wait until next spring What to review before year-end if your income, bonus, business revenue, or investments changed How to plan for upcoming expenses before they become stressful Why predictable expenses feel chaotic when you keep pretending they are surprises How lifestyle creep shows up when your defaults quietly get more expensive Why being able to afford something does not automatically mean it is the best use of your money How to revisit your January goals without shame Why a goal that no longer fits your life is not a moral obligation How to choose one to three financial priorities for the rest of the year The goal is not to fix everything in one sitting. The goal is to create visibility, make one or two stronger decisions, and stop letting the lack of a decision become the decision. Money should not just accumulate, disappear, or sit there because you are unsure what to do next. Money should be a tool that helps you live life on your terms.

In this episode, Linda McKissack and Dana Gentry reflect on the halfway point of the year, sharing why now is the perfect time to revisit goals, eliminate distractions, and focus on the opportunities that create the biggest long-term impact. They discuss lessons from the viral "Yap Challenge" and why authentic, simple content often outperforms polished perfection, before diving into the importance of thinking 10X instead of settling for comfort, building passive income through the right partnerships, and challenging yourself to pursue goals that feel just beyond reach

What actually mattered in banking during the first half of 2026 — and what was just noise? Jim Marous welcomes Ron Shevlin, Chief Research Officer at Cornerstone Advisors, back to Banking Transformed for a mid-year review that cuts through the hype. The conversation covers why agentic AI is both overweighted and underweighted by banks and credit unions; Ron Shevlin's three-part framework for AI's impact, and the pivotal question of how work gets done versus who does the work; the stablecoin and tokenized-deposit debate, and the evolving role of core providers including Fiserv, FIS, and Jack Henry. They also discuss bank and credit union consolidation driven by capabilities and digital maturity rather than geography, and the fintechs Ron is watching most closely — SoFi, Robinhood, and Coinbase. At the heart of the episode is the decline of primacy: why a single “primary bank” no longer exists for consumers under 40, and why direct deposit no longer signals a growing relationship. The episode closes with each guest's top priority for the second half of 2026. Ron Shevlin publishes the Fintech Snark Tank on Substack (ronshevlin.substack.com) and LinkedIn. Hosted by Jim Marous, co-publisher of The Financial Brand and Owner and Publisher of the Digital Banking Report.

The halfway point of the year is one of the best moments to review your business finances, and most entrepreneurs let it pass without taking action. In this episode, Brian Thompson shares the CASH framework, a simple mid-year review you can complete in under an hour, that helps you understand where your business stands and make better decisions for the second half of the year. Brian gets honest about his own relationship with numbers and why most entrepreneurs avoid their finances, not because the news is bad, but because looking feels uncomfortable. This episode is a practical and compassionate guide to changing that relationship, one question at a time.   In this episode you will learn: What your financial statements are really saying How to complete a mid-year review using the four-step CASH framework What questions to ask when reviewing your revenue, expenses, and cash flow How to assess your spending and whether it reflects your values Why cash flow creates peace of mind and how to strengthen it before year end How to head into the second half of the year with three clear financial intentions Why small adjustments made consistently over six months can completely change your year   A good mid-year review is about gathering the information you need to make better decisions going forward. When you understand your cash flow, your spending patterns, and your financial position, the second half of the year becomes much easier to navigate with clarity and confidence.

You can hit every goal you set in January and still be running on empty in the parts of your life the list never thought to measure. That's not a failure story. That's a design flaw in the instrument most of us reach for at the midpoint of the year.Jonathan Fields has spent 14 years exploring what it takes to build a life that genuinely feels like yours.

Halfway through the year and not sure if you're actually on track, or just busy? Those are two very different things, and most spa owners don't stop long enough to tell them apart until Q4 is already here. This episode is a full midyear audit: revenue versus goal, profit versus revenue, retail-to-service percentage, client acquisition cost by channel, and the profitability of every service on your menu. Daniela walks through each number, what it actually tells you, and where most spas are leaving money on the table without realizing it. She also covers the operational questions you need to answer right now, before your busiest season, while there's still time to address them. If you are running a spa that looks successful from the outside and can't figure out why it doesn't feel that way, this episode is for you. In this episode, we discuss: Why tracking revenue as a flat total misleads you, and how to read it against your actual seasonality The difference between revenue and profit, and why profit is the only number that funds your life Retail-to-service benchmarks by business model and why this is the fastest lever to increase margins without adding a single new client How to calculate client acquisition cost by channel, and why the channel producing the most clients is rarely the one worth investing in The cost-of-treatment analysis that shows which services are quietly draining your practice What your operations need to look like before Q4 arrives: team ownership, documented onboarding, and marketing that runs without you A personal check-in framework: whether you're still aligned with the goals you set in January and what needs to be true by December for this year to feel like a success   Want to break past $25K–$35K months without adding more treatment hours? Watch The Systems Shift and learn how 600+ spa owners are scaling into their Spa CEO role (without sacrificing family time or sanity).
