"Money and Fame is loud, jail was quiet." Sebastian Telfair former NBA star No truer meaning of the word Pivot then the rise and fall of success, money and fame to hit rock bottom, accept the consequences and figure out how to move forward. In his first conversation since being released from prison, former NBA guard Sebastian Telfair joins The Pivot for a raw, honest, and long-awaited conversation. Once one of the most hyped prospects in basketball history, Sebastian made headlines as a teenager—gracing the cover of SLAM Magazine alongside LeBron James and becoming the symbol of New York City basketball before ever playing an NBA game. He opens up about the highs of making it to the league straight out of high school—and the lows that followed, including the choices that led to his time behind bars. Once celebrated for his basketball talent and condemned for his mistakes, Sebastian Telfair is now facing the hardest opponent of all: himself. A couple weeks after being out of jail, Sebastian addresses the legal trouble that led to his sentence, taking full responsibility for his actions and reflecting on the consequences that changed his life. Being at Fort Dix Federal Correctional Institution, same place Sean Combs (P Diddy) is serving his time, he chats about thier encounter and lessons that come with freedom. Now on the other side, he shares what prison taught him, how it reshaped his perspective, and what redemption, growth, and purpose look like today. Once a teenage phenom turned NBA pro, Sebastian Telfair's story is a reminder that talent opens doors—but choices decide the outcome. Drafted straight out of high school, Telfair opens up about the pressure that came with early fame, the expectations he carried, and why his NBA career never fully reached the heights many predicted. He speaks candidly about decisions on and off the court, navigating the league at a young age, and how distractions, environment, and accountability played a role in his journey. This is more than a basketball story—it's a conversation about hype, hardship, accountability, and what it really means to pivot when life forces you to. Real talk. Real lessons. Real growth. You don't want to miss this one. Pivot Family, please like, subscribe and comment, we love hearing from you and your support keeps us going! Learn more about your ad choices.

Today's guest, Guy Kawasaki, flips the usual “success story” on its head with a string of jaw-dropping missed opportunities that became the foundation for a life measured by impact, not just outcomes. In this conversation, Guy takes us from being a kid on the “wrong side of the tracks” in Honolulu to Stanford, Apple, and Canva—sharing how cars, connections, and a few spectacular “what was I thinking?” decisions shaped his relationship with money and ambition. Guy is a Silicon Valley original. As one of Apple's first evangelists, he helped introduce the Macintosh to the world. Today, he's a bestselling author, venture capitalist, podcast host, and a trusted voice on entrepreneurship, innovation, and making a positive difference through your work. Guy is the chief evangelist of Canva, host of the Remarkable People podcast and author of eighteen books including Think Remarkable. He is an adjunct professor of UC Santa Cruz and trustee of the University of Hawaii Foundation. He was the chief evangelist of Apple, trustee of the Wikimedia Foundation and brand ambassador of Mercedes-Benz. Kawasaki has a BA from Stanford University, an MBA from UCLA and an honorary doctorate from Babson College. When Success Isn't a Straight Line Guy Kawasaki's journey reminds us that success isn't defined only by wins, titles, or perfect timing. Missed opportunities, unexpected turns, and “what was I thinking?” moments often shape our values, ambitions, and relationship with money just as much as the highlights do. If you're reflecting on your own path—whether navigating career pivots, weighing new opportunities, or redefining what impact and success mean to you—an Aspiriant advisor can help you explore your financial decisions with perspective, purpose, and intention.

US stock market doubles roughly every 7-10 years Common Mistakes to Avoid in 2026 Not contributing to TSP at all (minimum 5%, goal 15%+) TSP loans for non-emergencies...change behavior instead New car trap: 7-year car loans becoming standard, shooting yourself in financial foot Lifestyle creep: Give half of pay raise to savings, half to lifestyle improvements Waiting for "perfect time."

In this episode of Think Smart with TMFG, Mike Connon and John Iaconetti, Financial Advisors at The McClelland Financial Group of Assante Capital Management, discuss common estate planning mistakes and practical strategies for Canadians. They explore why having a properly structured will, appointing executors, and setting up powers of attorney are critical for a smooth estate transfer and for protecting your family. They also highlight the risks of dying without a will, including the government dictating how assets are distributed, potential family disputes, and delays caused by non-liquid assets, like cottages or other properties. They emphasize the importance of beneficiary designations, insurance strategies, and ensuring liquidity in your estate to manage taxes and unexpected costs efficiently. Ultimately, they stress the importance of documenting decisions and communicating with family members to prevent ambiguity, safeguard relationships, and alleviate stress for loved ones. They explain that a will and a power of attorney are separate tools, each with specific roles, and that acting while in full capacity is essential to avoid future complications. Careful estate planning is not just about money; it's about protecting your family, preserving your legacy, and ensuring peace of mind.

New Total Wealth and Wellness Radio episodes post every Saturday.
No one plans to lose their financial independence. But for many women, it happens slowly, quietly, over years of caregiving and career pauses. In today's episode, Jessi Hempel sits down with Steph Wagner, expert voice in women's wealth and financial empowerment and author of Fly: A Woman's Guide to Financial Freedom and Building a Life You Love, to talk about what it really takes to rebuild your financial life. Steph began her career in investment banking, drawn to numbers, strategy, and financial control. A brief pause from work to focus on motherhood turned into 14 years, during which she lost her income, confidence, and ultimately her marriage. When she discovered her husband's double life, she was surprised to find herself financially unprepared. Her story is one many women will recognize, whether the catalyst is divorce, job loss, grief, or a major life transition. Jessi and Steph discuss: How women slowly lose financial power, and how to take it back The emotional toll of financial dependence, shame, and starting over Why so many of us carry scarcity mindsets we don't even realize we learned in childhood How to identify your “money personality” and how it shapes your habits How compounding interest and awareness of opportunity cost can quietly transform your financial future Why traditional budgets fail and Steph's 45/20/35 model that actually works How to talk about money with partners, kids, and family members who have their own money beliefs What it really looks like to rebuild your identity after financial and emotional collapse And how to build healthier relationships without giving up your financial autonomy again Steph's story is a reminder that financial freedom isn't about having more money, it's about understanding your choices, aligning them with your values, and believing you're capable of steering your own life. The skills are learnable. And it's never too late to begin.

Many retirees think their financial habits will magically reset once they stop working, but financial therapist Kine Corder explains why that never happens. The money lessons you absorbed decades ago don't retire when you do. They show up in quiet ways — how you react to market swings, how much you help your adult kids, how nervous you feel about spending even when the math says you're fine. These patterns feel logical in the moment, but they usually come from old stories you didn't choose and never questioned. In this episode, Kine and Matt explore how those childhood beliefs, family dynamics, and subconscious fears shape retirement more than any investment decision.

It's not always black and white.” 08:05 - 08:25 “So I sold my house, moved in with my mom, hired a bunch of people, and started training. There were a lot of growing pains. It took a lot to realize that just because you're great at something and you think you can train people, it's not the case.” 08:26 - 08:47 “It takes a special kind of person to do tedious work, like accounting. And then it also takes another type of person to actually talk to clients. That's not always the same person. So I was like, okay, so I can't duplicate me. I have to separate positions for different people.” Quotes “With taxes, you don't need just knowledge, you actually need some wisdom.” “If you're not growing, you're shrinking.” “Accounting is not really math. It's more of a puzzle.” “Finances are the heartbeat of your company.” Links mentioned in this episode: From Our Guest Website: https://www.goldenappleagencyinc.com/ Connect with Tanya Akimenko on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tanyaakimenko/ Connect with brandiD Find out how top leaders are increasing their authority, impact, and income online.
