Monero Talk typically focuses on fundamentals rather than technical analysis, but the current market conditions made it relevant to discuss price movements and broader market trends. Kevin presented detailed analysis of various markets, including the S&P 500, gold, Bitcoin, and Monero. He demonstrated how technical analysis can predict major market moves by showing historical examples, particularly with gold price predictions from 2019 that proved accurate. The discussion explored the relationship between different markets, with Kevin explaining how cryptocurrencies remain strongly correlated with stock markets despite occasional short-term divergences. He presented evidence suggesting a potential 'melt-up' scenario in the coming months, while also warning of longer-term risks.

Preview: Colleague Gene Marks reports the positive outlook of small businesses for the next year. More. 1871 MONTANA

Small Biz Matters: People, Policy, Purpose ~ Episode #258 Broadcast date: 18 Mar 2025 Host: Alexi Boyd, Small Business Advocate & Policy Advisor Guests: Dr Sherman Chan, Chief Economist at Business NSW Dr Sherman Chan is one of those few economists who, when they explain a complex problem, it makes sense. That's why whenever you attend a BusinessNSW event where she is presenting her findings or read their quarterly Business Insights data report, the science of economics becomes a little clearer. The report provides policy makers and business owners insights from small business in the form of robust, clearly presented data which is consistent in its presentation of its data. That's why we're pleased to present this information to you on a regular basis on Small Biz Matters. In March 2025, for the first time in three years, the report offering a positive lift in the confidence index. Insurance remains a top concern and we are very much in a 2 speed economy but the green shoots have started appearing alongside the RBA's interest rate cut and as Sherman says, “Confidence comes hand in hand with resilience.” Regularly briefing small business intel from the quarterly business insights report to the likes of NSW Treasury, the RBA and federal politicians, Dr Chan has an intelligent approach to data gathering, presenting it in a clear and relatable way, Dr Sherman Chan is exactly the right person to deliver the information you need to understand the state of small business right now. She joins us to unpack the findings of the March 2025 report for small business owners, their advisors and policy makers here on Small Biz Matters. Tell us about the findings in this quarter's Business NSW data report. What insights have you been able to extract from the data in particular for small businesses? Is the data showing different situation for regional or Metro base businesses? What will Business NSW adjust in its priority issues when representing small businesses in NSW? How will they change their policy priorities?  What do you see as the main issues that Business NSW will be advocating for change for small businesses in the coming 12 months? Were you surprised by any of the findings? Sherman is an economist with experience in government, banking and consulting. In her role as Chief Economist at Business NSW, Sherman drives strategic research and builds the evidence base for policy advocacy. She manages the quarterly Business Conditions Survey – Business NSW's flagship research product that generates insights into business opportunities and challenges across key industries in NSW. Prior to joining Business NSW, Sherman was a Senior Manager in the Risk and Regulatory Consulting practice at MinterEllison. This followed a six-year stint in NSW Government with agencies including NSW Treasury and the Audit Office of NSW where she led large-scale program evaluations and performance audits.   Sherman's journey as an economist also includes working at Moody's Analytics and HSBC (Hong Kong) during the Global Financial Crisis, covering economies and financial markets across the Asia-Pacific region. Sherman also has experience working at the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority. Sherman holds a PhD and a Bachelor of Commerce (Honours in Economics) both from UNSW. Proficient in both macroeconomics and microeconomics, Sherman has been a Lecturer at UNSW since 2014. She specialises in government policy evaluation, impact measurement and cost-benefit analysis. Business NSW is the peak business organisation for New South Wales representing the needs of 48,000 businesses across the state.

Overcoming Challenges in UK Housing DeliveryThe government's ambitious goal of delivering 1.5 million homes within this parliamentary term is undeniably bold. Bob Weston, Chairman of Weston Homes, highlighted the need for significant action to meet demand, particularly given a 40% drop in housing output and a decline in first-time buyers due to limited mortgage support schemes.Robert Mulryan, Director at Ballymore, emphasised that London, in particular, faces a steeper challenge, with construction starts down approximately 70% from the 10-year average. However, both experts expressed optimism that with the right policy changes and industry collaboration, the sector can regain momentum.Keeping London Competitive on the Global StageLondon remains a world-class city, but maintaining its appeal to high-net-worth individuals and businesses is crucial. Daniel Daggers, Founder of DDRE.Global, pointed out that London must compete more effectively for global talent and investment.“The ultra-high-net-worth community is hypermobile,” he explained. “We need to create an environment that entices them to choose London over other global hubs.”Daggers advocated for more supportive tax policies, streamlined entrepreneurial regulations, and enhanced AI capabilities to foster a thriving business environment.Bridging the Housing Affordability GapGeeta Nanda, a leader in both affordable housing and private development, underscored the importance of making housing accessible to medium-income groups. “The demand for housing is massive, particularly in London. We need to innovate in how we fund and deliver affordable housing,” she said.She highlighted the vital role housing associations play in affordability but noted that rising costs and financial pressures have limited their ability to build at scale. Her call to action? More efficient allocation of existing government funds rather than reliance on new funding sources.Practical Solutions for a Stronger Housing MarketThe panel shared a range of solutions designed to boost housing supply and affordability, including:Recapitalising Housing Associations: Redirecting funds to support building safety measures, freeing up resources for new development.Simplifying Design Standards: Adjusting London's design requirements to enable the construction of more affordable homes, better aligned with market demand.Expanding Mortgage Availability: Introducing genuine 90% mortgage products to improve accessibility for first-time buyers.Updating Shared Ownership Caps: Revising outdated income thresholds to reflect current market realities and allow more people to benefit.Empowering Small and Medium Developers: Supporting smaller projects that can contribute to overall supply while waiting for larger developments to materialise.A Positive Outlook for London's FutureDespite the challenges, the panel remained confident in London's enduring appeal. Robert Elder, Senior Economist at the Bank of England, reassured attendees that the current government is committed to building more homes and is open to practical solutions from industry leaders.London's cultural and economic strengths remain a powerful draw. “60% of global music production happens in the UK. We have an incredible theatre district. The talent here is exceptional,” noted Daniel Daggers.Robert Mulryan added a note of urgency: “London is one of the greatest cities in the world, but competition is fierce. We need to act decisively to maintain our position.”Turning Ideas into ActionThe message from the panel was clear: the time for discussion has passed—it's time for action. Addressing the housing crisis isn't just about policy; it's about people.Geeta Nanda summed it up best: “We need to start making real, actionable changes.”With the right strategies, collaboration, and commitment, the UK has the expertise and investment potential to create a thriving, inclusive housing market that works for everyone.

Anna Palumbo (SO/SP 9w8 973) is a Type 9 mother who has been undergoing a profound transformation—untangling herself from patterns of enmeshment and reconnecting with her own life-force. In this episode, we focus on Anna's relationship with her Type 6 daughter and how her Type 9 tendency to merge initially obscured her ability to be present with her daughter's reactivity. We also explore the Positive Outlook reflex of Type 9 and its dynamic tension with the "point-out-the-problem" and "raise-the-alarm" tendency of Type 6. Anna brings remarkable clarity, grace, and self-awareness to this discussion, offering a rare, high-resolution look at the inner experience of a 9 navigating parenthood and the individuation journey.

So often when we talk about breast cancer, the conversation often revolves around survival, diagnosis, treatment and remission, but what's rarely discussed is how it profoundly impacts a woman's sense of self. Beyond the physical toll, there's the emotional and psychological journey, one that reshapes identity, body image, intimacy and even pleasure. For many young women, cancer treatment also comes with an unexpected and abrupt transition into medically induced menopause, a conversation that's often overlooked in the US. Around 7% of breast cancer cases occur in women under 40, and studies show that up to 31% of young women undergoing chemotherapy experience sudden menopause. Unlike natural menopause, this transition can be jarring, bringing hormonal shifts, changes in libido and a new relationship with the body that can feel unfamiliar or even isolating. But survivorship isn't just about overcoming the disease, it's about reclaiming who you are in the aftermath, and my guest today embodies that reclamation so beautifully.Are you ready to awaken your sensuality and feel more empowered in your body?

Voice of the Maple Leafs on TSN 1050, Joe Bowen joins Game Play to chat about what makes the Leafs' recent stretch of play so impressive, his positive outlook on Leafs goaltending and Notre Dame's Orange Bowl win.

As a result of reading Dale Carnegie's book "How to Stop Worrying and Start Living" and then going on to be a Dale Carnegie Inc. advocation coach, thankfully I have had a positive outlook for most of the time in my life. Or, as the song says and Monty Python sings, "always look on the bright side of life". Do what I personally do to help improve difficult situations: Turn your lemons into lemonade. Ask yourself what is the worst that can happen, accept the worst and then move on to look at how you can improve on the worst situation. Example: Golfers regularly say something like this, and what's more, they say it out loud. "Don't go into the water!" My suggestion, along with the best golfing coaches and sports psychologists, is to recommend that you visualise and verbalise your ball landing in the middle of the fairway. Which thought is most likely to succeed? Here is some advice to help you present with increased confidence in 2025: I hear people give this advice to people who are nervous before speaking to an audience. "Imagine your audience is naked." I know this advice would be of little help in overcoming nervousness, and it will likely be distracting. I advise speakers to mingle and chat with their audience, rather than nervously go over their talk's opening lines, which will take your mind off your content and onto the most important participants, your audience. How to start? When coaching people to present, my first job is to stop them starting with some form of apology. "The dog ate my homework!" "I would have liked more time to prepare" etc. "I'm not sure why they asked me to give this talk." My advice is to create a strong opening line, think HEADLINE. Then, memorise it and deliver it with confidence and energy. Example: Barack Obama spoke to thousands of people in College Green Dublin in 2011. His opening comment was, "Hello, I am Barack O'Bama, and I have come to Ireland to find the missing apostrophe in my name". This opening made a positive impression. "I need a script": Do not think I must have a script; scripts are for actors. I hear you cry "but I will forget something". So what? Nobody will know but you! Worry: Perhaps worry, it's an Irish trait, as we are generally too hard on ourselves. In the past, our parents and teachers invariably played a part in our lack of a positive outlook. I believe this situation is now improving. Affirmations to try out: Act enthusiastic, and you will be enthusiastic. Fake it till you make it! My best advice: STOP delivering speeches, lectures and sermons; those days are gone. Think conversation; audiences will love you and engage with you when you speak to them in a conversational way. Action for 2025 Upgrade all your communications. People we email, we should phone. People we phone, we should meet. People we meet for lunch, we should meet for dinner.

If you're feeling overwhelmed by productivity pressures, stuck in endless meetings, or managing a team under constant stress, the problem may not be what you think.What if the root cause of your unhappiness isn't your workload, hours, or even your boss, but rather the neglect of some fundamental, non-negotiable principles in your career?In this episode, your host, Lona Small, career success coach, dives into "10 Non-Negotiables" that could be the hidden reasons behind your unhappiness at work. These are the essential questions every lab professional should ask themselves to ensure they are on the path to a satisfying and rewarding career.Key Takeaways: The 10 Non-Negotiables to Consider for a Happier Lab Career1.Do I Have Opportunities to Share Ideas and Foster Innovation?Innovation isn't just for tech startups—it's crucial in labs too! Whether it's streamlining daily tasks or contributing to large-scale projects, your voice and ideas should be heard. If you're not given a seat at the table, it may be time to speak up or look for opportunities elsewhere.2.Is My Role Providing Me with Purpose and a Sense of Meaning?Purpose is a powerful driver of job satisfaction. Are you able to see the impact of your work on patient outcomes or lab efficiency? If not, consider finding ways to connect your daily tasks with a bigger picture that resonates with your values.3.Am I Continuously Growing and Learning in My Current Role?Career satisfaction requires continuous growth. Are you gaining new skills and facing fresh challenges? If you feel stagnated, push for new opportunities—whether leading cross-functional projects or earning additional certifications.4.Am I Valued and Recognized for the Contributions I Make?Feeling valued is crucial to feeling fulfilled at work.

Are you taking time for self-care, meditation, or reflection?

In this episode, we're diving deep into transforming our outlook and truly embracing a positive mindset. Whether you're struggling, feeling stuck, or in pain, this process will guide you towards a more positive life. Understanding positive perspectives is crucial—they can fundamentally change how you experience life. Consider a scenario where your car breaks down. It's not just about the mechanical failure but how you perceive and respond to this challenge. A mechanic might see it as a simple fix, showing how perspective can transform a situation. Life will present difficulties, but remember, it's within your power to shift how you perceive and react in the moment. Your perspective is your pathway through these challenges. It's all about the internal journey. Regardless of external circumstances, your internal state dictates your experience. This journey isn't just about achieving or acquiring things; it's about who you become along the way. The external world—be it a demanding boss, heavy traffic, or a tough economy—doesn't define you. You're a high-level being capable of influencing your reality through your mindset. Embracing this power starts with recognizing that your mind acts as a filter. What you focus on shapes your experiences and feelings. Even if you achieve your dreams, like buying an expensive car, if your internal state isn't aligned, you won't find happiness. True change comes from within. By altering your internal perspective, you not only change your personal frequency and experience but also the energy you contribute to the world. You have the power to shift your perspective regardless of external difficulties. Viewing challenges from a different angle, like a breakdown as a chance for learning, can transform your approach to life. Become an expert in positive energy. Study and seek out love, joy, happiness, and abundance daily. Recognize the abundance around you—it could be as simple as the oxygen you breathe or the daylight. Your perspective is key. It not only shapes your personal reality but also allows you to lift others. Everyone's journey is different, and by fostering a positive internal state, you can help others see beyond their challenges. Give yourself the power to rise above your circumstances. This isn't a quick fix but a lifelong journey of aligning more closely with your higher self, seeking the good in life despite challenges. The world will test you, but these challenges are gifts that affirm your strength and capacity to live in alignment with your desired state. - Henry -------------------------------- Social Media ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Say hi on TikTok⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Say Hi on Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ -------------------------------- Email Me ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠henry@vibeabundant.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ -------------------------------- ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Email List⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/positive-mindset-podcast/support
