Marie, citing the impact of U.S. tariffs on the sector. Vassy chats with Sault Ste. Marie Mayor Matthew Shoemaker about the potentially dramatic impact to the local economy. On today's show: Tim Anderson, a former Kinder Morgan CEO, chimes in on the business argument for a new oil pipeline in Canada. Money Talk with John Klotz: Tax-panning tips to end a crazy 2025. The Daily Debrief Panel - featuring Laryssa Waler, Sharan Kaur, and Nojoud Al Mallees.

"Creating safe spaces for people to talk about money is one of the most powerful things we can do right now to make the world better for change." -Meg Wheeler Our hosts Stephanie McCullough and Kevin Gaines sit down with Meg Wheeler, CPA and founder of the Equitable Money Project, who's on a mission to demolish the shame surrounding money conversations through accessible financial education. Her approach shows us that the path to financial confidence isn't about becoming an expert. It's about learning to simply talk about money without judgment. "Why should we know this when we've never been taught it in school?" Meg challenges the pervasive shame many people feel about their financial knowledge gaps. After all, we don't feel ashamed about not knowing brain surgery or environmental science because we were never taught those subjects either! The real problem isn't lack of knowledge, but the absence of safe spaces to discuss money openly. Meg's work centers on creating a community where people can share their financial stories without fear. She emphasizes that most people's situations aren't unique. Whether it's medical debt from our broken healthcare system or struggling with inconsistent business income, the factors contributing to financial challenges are systemic rather than personal failures. She suggests going for incremental progress rather than perfection. "Every quarter we want you to pick just one thing within one of those buckets to focus on," she explains, referring to her three-pillar framework: set up foundations, stabilize, and grow. This approach makes wealth-building feel achievable rather than overwhelming. Perhaps most powerfully, Meg advocates for teaching children about money early. Her eight-year-old has a debit card and checks his bank balance before purchases. Not because he's learning to become a financial professional, but because money should not be feared but normalized. Financial empowerment begins not with expertise, but with conversation, community, and compassion toward ourselves and others navigating the same challenges.   Key Topics ●      Meg's Path to Financial Education (02:26) ●      The Problem with "Financial Literacy" (04:28) ●      Why We Feel Shame About Money (05:21) ●      Information vs. Quality Education (05:56) ●      Creating Safe Spaces for Money Talk (14:07) ●      Teaching Kids About Money (16:13) ●      Learning the Language of Money (17:43) ●      The Three Pillars of Wealth Building (25:51) ●      Overcoming Emergency Fund Shame (26:54) ●      Business Owner Tips and Avoidance (33:00)   Resources: Equitable Money Project website   If you like what you've been hearing, we invite you to subscribe on your favorite platform and leave us a review.

November is financial literacy month, and when it comes to finances, ignorance is certainly not bliss.With all the resources online, whether that be from TikToks or business blogs or even ChatGPT, it may seem intimidating to cut through all the noise to find out what works for you. But the reality is, educating yourself is easier than you think. All it takes is one conversation.Host Kris McCusker speaks to Gary Teelucksingh, co-founder of the Money Wise Institute and partner at Electric Mind. He's also the author of Roots of Prosperity: Building Legacies Beyond Wealth. The two discuss how to build financial habits that work for your personal lifestyle, and how the worst thing you could do for your money is NOT talk about it, regardless of how old you are.

Kathi Kleff über Selbstermächtigung, Gehaltsverhandlungen und finanzielle Unabhängigkeit In dieser Folge spreche ich mit Kathie Kleff, Radiomoderatorin, Podcasterin, Autorin und traumasensitiver Coach. Wir tauchen ein in Kathie's Lebensweg: von der Sehnsucht nach Unabhängigkeit als Jugendliche, über ihre Karriere in den Medien, bis hin zu ihrem heutigen Wirken als Coach. Sie erzählt offen, wie prägende Kindheitserfahrungen ihre Motivation für finanzielle Selbstständigkeit beeinflusst haben. Kathie beschreibt, wie schwer es am Anfang war, in Gehaltsverhandlungen den eigenen Wert zu vertreten – und warum sie dabei sogar in Tränen ausgebrochen ist. Heute weiß sie: Wir Frauen müssen raus aus der Rolle der Bittstellerin und uns als wertvolle Dienstleisterinnen sehen. Besonders spannend: Kathie teilt, wie sie mithilfe von Coaching ihren Umgang mit Geld völlig verändert hat – vom unbewussten Amazon-Shopping hin zu einem liebevollen, bewussten Money-Mindset. Wir sprechen über toxische Glaubenssätze, die verhindern, dass Geld bleibt, und warum Selbstwert und Finanzen untrennbar verbunden sind. Außerdem geht es darum, warum das deutsche Rentensystem keine ausreichende Sicherheit bietet und wie Kathie ihre Vorsorge selbst in die Hand genommen hat. Eine Episode, die Mut macht, Geld nicht länger als Tabu zu sehen, sondern als Schlüssel zur Freiheit.

In the podcast, Andrew is joined by Pastors Scott Kramer, Eric Goldsborough, and Scott Nagle to discuss the new sermon series "Money Talks," focusing on biblical financial principles like stewardship and the idea that God owns everything. They emphasize teaching these concepts to both new believers and youth, while addressing cultural pressures and sharing personal experiences about trusting God with finances.

Pastor Scott explores the concept of "money talks," highlighting that God owns everything and that all possessions are His, urging us to adopt a biblical worldview and see ourselves as managers rather than owners of our resources. He encourages us to align our perspectives on money with biblical principles by understanding that everything we have comes from God.

Pastor Eric's message addresses the biblical perspective on money, emphasizing that God owns everything, and we are merely managers of His resources, responsible for using them wisely and generously. It challenges listeners to adopt a godly attitude towards wealth, encouraging them to prioritize eternal treasures over earthly possessions and trust God with their finances.

Have you ever hesitated to recommend a treatment because you weren't sure your patient could afford it — or worried your fees would look like you're putting profit before care? Many private-practice providers freeze at the money conversation: we undercharge out of guilt, over-explain costs, or avoid talking about outcomes and value — and that leaves patients confused, underserved, or worse, exploited. That discomfort is exactly why this episode matters. The Roundtable pulls back the curtain on pricing, billing, and ethical care — we name the tension between value and access, then give you practical ways to hold both at once: clear upfront conversations about outcomes, flexible "plan B" options, warranties/refund approaches for devices, pro-bono funnels, and clinician-level boundaries that protect both patient outcomes and your team's sustainability. BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU'LL LEARN: How to frame cost conversations around value and outcomes (so patients see spending as investment, not just expense). Concrete strategies for setting and defending fee schedules while staying ethical and compassionate (including transparency, team conversations, and when to push back on insurer-driven rates). A practical, team-based clinical approach for complex concussion cases — what to assess first (vision, vestibular, neck, nervous-system regulation) and how to coordinate referrals. Real ways to increase access without going broke: pro-bono slots, low-cost/online resources, sliding plans, and negotiating efficient treatment doses that still get results. On this episode of The Roundtable we dig into the hard stuff — cost, billing, and caring for people in vulnerable positions — and we walk through a real, messy case study (Michelle's multi-system concussion) so you leave with both mindset shifts and actionable tools.    Join the Clinician's Edge to have Your Weekly Taste of Neuro Wisdom here: https://www.natashawilch.com/clinicians-edge   Visit Natasha's Website: https://www.natasha-wilch.com   Thank you to our sponsor Neuronic.

Advisors on This Week's Show Kyle Tetting Art Rothschild Steve Giles (with Max Hoelzl, Joel Dresang, engineered by Jason Scuglik) Week in Review (Oct. 27-31, 2025) Significant Economic Indicators & Reports Monday An indicator of demand for manufactured products, the Commerce Department's report on durable goods orders, was unavailable because of the federal government shutdown. Tuesday Housing prices continued slowing in August, according to the S&P Cotality Case-Shiller national home price index. The measure showed a 1.5% year-to-year gain in residential prices, the lowest in more than two years and below the overall inflation rate for the fourth straight month. An S&P analyst said the housing market has been trying to find a sustainable equilibrium following its post-pandemic boom. He added, "(H)omeowners are watching their real equity erode while buyers face the dual challenge of elevated prices and high borrowing costs." The Conference Board said its consumer confidence index moved sideways in October. The index dipped slightly from September with lower expectations offsetting consumers' marginally higher opinion of the present situation. The business research group said pessimism about the future continued to suggest an impending recession for the ninth month in a row. Prices and inflation remained the top concerns among survey respondents. Mentions of tariffs declined from earlier surveys but stayed elevated. Some consumers expressed dismay about the federal government shutdown. Wednesday The National Association of Realtors said its pending home sales index was unchanged in September and down 0.9% from the year before. The trade association said lower mortgage rates and increased wealth effect – from record-high stock prices and elevated home values – could not overcome apparent softening in the job market.  The pending sales index remained more than 25% below its 2001 base, which the Realtors consider a normal level of sales activity. As expected, the Federal Open Market Committee lowered short-term lending rates by one quarter of a percentage point for the second time in six weeks. The Federal Reserve Board's policy-making body said continued consideration of slowing labor markets prompted it to loosen monetary control, though it also expressed reluctance to lower rates while inflation stayed above the long-term target of 2%. The September Consumer Price Index showed broad inflation rising at a 3% annual rate, although more complete data reports have been curtailed by the federal government shutdown. Thursday The broadest measure of U.S. economic output, the quarterly report on gross domestic product, was not available from the Bureau of Economic Analysis because of the federal government shutdown. The GDP report includes the Fed's preferred measure of inflation, the personal consumption expenditure index. The Labor Department's report on initial unemployment insurance claims was not available for the fifth week in a row because of the federal government shutdown. Friday The Bureau of Economic Analysis did not release its consumer spending report for September because of the federal government shutdown. Market Closings for the Week Nasdaq – 23725, up 520 points or 2.2% Standard & Poor's 500 – 6840, up 49 points or 0.7% Dow Jones Industrial – 47563, up 356 points or 0.8% 10-year U.S. Treasury Note – 4.10%, down 0.10 point

If you are one of the millions pof Americans who doesn't have a will, trust, or other estate planning tool in place, your assets are left at the mercy of the laws of the state in which you live, which can lead to unintended costs, headaches, and conflicts for your loved ones.
