Podcasts about mind muscles

In this episode of The Band of Traders, Kyle reconnects with longtime friend of the show, Richard Friesen, for a deep dive into the psychology of trading and personal growth. Rich shares insights from his work with traders, emphasizing the power of self-awareness, emotional regulation, and identifying the internal voices that shape decision-making.Kyle opens up about his own process of mapping out these inner characters—from "John Rambo" to "Carl Sagan"—and how understanding their motivations has improved his trading discipline. The conversation explores the balance between process and results, the impact of past experiences on financial success, and how traders can develop a healthier relationship with risk, failure, and self-worth.Packed with practical mindset shifts and real-world applications, this episode is essential listening for anyone looking to elevate both their trading and personal development.Sponsors and FriendsOur podcast is sponsored by Sue Maki at Fairway Independent Mortgage (MLS# 206048).

Rich wants to make the world a better place for his family and for society at large. He was a philosophy major, has a masters in psychology, spent years as a futures broker/floor trader, and now has developed a program to help business leaders increase their personal effectiveness. He believes his experiences, including his time as a child when he was constantly seeking ways to make his depressive mother feel better, have given him insight into the human psyche. Rich created his "Mind Muscles" model (https://conversations.money/) to teach his clients mental models they can use to catch themselves when their mind breaks bad (e.g., biases, irrational insecurities, ego issues, etc.). The concept that came through most in this discussion is "chipping away." From the prior paragraph you might assume Rich is another quick-fix self improvement guy; coming up with some gimmicky model or program to help you be successful, happy, and fulfilled. But that is not what I got from this discussion. Rich has a deep appreciation for how hard it is to deal with our inherent mental flaws. He makes no promises of a quick fix. But he does believe with consistent work and effort you can find better, healthier ways to deal with your mental baggage. I'm on board with all of that, so we spent a good bit of the discussion exploring if it is actually doable. Given how hard it is to challenge our own ego and address our own mental flaws, do we really think we can pull it off? And even if we can, what does it say about humanity that we have to work so hard to be the best version of ourselves? This all led us to some interesting discussions about the value of money in our society, religion, liberalism, and the right approach to raising a well adjusted child. We took that "chipping away" approach to these questions, not claiming to have any definitive answers, but trying to do the work to understand them a little bit better and improve the quality of our lives and the lives of those around us.

Subscribe to How To Trade ItRichard (Rich) Friesen started his career with Merrill Lynch as a commodity futures broker before going to work at the Chicago Research and Trading Group in Chicago. When he got there, he was thrown into the S&P 500 pit—his first time on the trading floor. He had no idea what he was doing. So he was quickly pulled and switched to options, where his trainer told him point-blank: “You're the worst trainee that I’ve ever had.” Rich admits that the criticism was right-on—he WAS terrible. It was the wake-up call that he needed to turn things around.

Optimism is to a certain extent predetermined, but it's also heavily influenced by our mental process.  How we interpret the world, our moods, our self-image and the thoughts we generate all play a role in our reactions and our state of mind.  Using your mind muscles deconstructs the process to help you understand where you have the ability to direct your mood.

Rich Friesen is the creator and developer of Mind Muscles, training traders to improve their performance through awareness. In this episode, Rich talks about how traders should view their performance, how they can take stock of their emotions, and why they shouldn’t fight them. Rich even gives traders an easy exercise they should do each day before they start trading.
