Welcome to another episode of HALO Talks! Today, host Pete Moore sits down with Duff McDonald, former investment banker and well known business journalist, for a fantastic chat. Duff, whose career has spanned investment banking, business journalism, and bestselling books like “The Golden Passport” and “Tickled,” shares insights on how numbers and data have come to dominate our understanding of business and life—but why they often fail to capture what really matters. In this episode, you'll hear Duff break down the difference between “experts” and “specialists,” challenge conventional thinking on metrics, and advocate for living—and doing business—in the present. Pete and Duff explore why true connection, presence, and awareness can lead to better decisions, stronger relationships, and more meaningful work, especially in the world of health clubs and other verticals in the HALO sector. Whether you're an entrepreneur, leader, or simply curious about finding more joy and meaning in your day-to-day, this conversation will invite you to rethink how you measure success and what it means to build something that truly “tickles” you. When we talk about coming "full circle," Duff definitely can relate. He says, "I worked at Goldman Sachs for two years. I was an investment banker in their analyst program, left that and went into business journalism and spent 20 years as a magazine writer, left that and sort of stopped doing so much magazine writing when the Internet kind of destroyed the economics of print, and weirdly, ironically, ended up writing books after that!" Key themes discussed Numbers vs. Essence: Counting doesn't capture true meaning or human experience. Specialists vs. Experts: Doing is valued over analyzing and predicting. Relationships Over Metrics: Human connection outweighs numerical data in business. Entrepreneurship Mindset: Focus on purpose, not just growth or financial results. COVID Reflections: The pandemic brought unexpected personal growth and realizations. Recruiting and Team Building: Seek people driven by passion and engagement. A Few Key Takeaways:  1. Numbers Don't Capture the Whole Story: McDonald challenges the idea that, “if you have the numbers, you have the story.” Having spent years in business banking and journalism, he realized that while numbers can track growth or comparison, they can't really grasp the true essence of a business. Counting and data analysis are certainly valuable, but they're just one dimension—true meaning often lies elsewhere. 2. The Power of Presence Over Metrics: The most impactful moments in life and business happen when you're fully present in the moment—not distracted by the past or anxiously projecting into the future. Duff relates how, during the pandemic, his own mindset shifted to appreciating the “now,” leading to more genuine experiences and better decision-making. This is a reminder that being present—not just monitoring KPIs or quarterly numbers—can actually produce the strongest connections and best results. 3. The Difference Between Experts and Specialists: Duff makes a subtle but powerful distinction: Experts count, analyze, and predict; specialists do, master, and experience. (Read that again!) Real business insight (and life satisfaction) often comes from those with hands-on expertise—the “specialists”—rather than just those who look at or talk about the data. For example, if you're sick, you want the infectious disease specialist, not just the epidemiologist with numbers. 4. Human Connection and Authenticity Trump Data for Retention: Specifically for health clubs and service businesses, Duff and Pete agree that relationships are everything. Customer retention and loyalty aren't driven by clever data models, but by staff who are present, ask questions, and genuinely care. Looking people in the eye, building trust, and creating a real bond is more effective (and fulfilling) than merely simply tracking attrition rates or conversion numbers. 5. Find What “Tickles” You—and Others: Duff's philosophy, as explored in “Tickled,” is about seeking out what genuinely excites and engages you. When people are truly passionate (“tickled” by what they're doing), their energy is palpable and contagious—whether in recruiting, management, or customer interactions. Asking “What are you passionate about?” or “What tickles you?” leads to deeper, more meaningful relationships, both personally and professionally.

“Should I add tax prep to my coaching business? What about investment management or insurance?”I hear this question from coaches all the time, especially when they're looking to grow their revenue. You see other financial professionals offering multiple services and it makes sense—more services should mean more income, right?Here's what I've learned after working with hundreds of coaches: adding a new service is like starting a whole new business. You need different marketing, different systems, different expertise, and a completely different client experience for each one.When coaches ask me about adding services, I start asking questions. How many clients are you working with right now? How many hours a week are you coaching? Could you take on more coaching clients if you wanted to?Most of the time, coaches aren't maxed out on their coaching capacity yet. They're working with five to ten clients. They're coaching a few hours each week. They're getting their clients great results. But they have room for more.So when we dig into it, the real question isn't “Should I add more services?” It's “How do I grow my revenue in a way that doesn't spread me too thin or take away from the coaching work I'm already doing well?”In this week's episode, we're talking about when it makes sense to add services, what actually grows your revenue without burning you out, and how to make decisions about your business that serve both you and your clients.Your clients hired you because you're excellent at helping them with their money. That excellence is what creates results, and results are what create referrals and a strong reputation. When you try to be good at everything, you end up being great at nothing.If you've been thinking about expanding what you offer, this episode will help you figure out what your next move should be.Links & Resources:Ultimate Growth GuideJoin the Facebook groupRoadmap trainingEpisode 91FCAKey Takeaways:Every new service is like starting a brand new business. Each one needs its own marketing, systems, expertise, and client journey built from scratch.Most coaches aren't actually maxed out when they want to add services. If you're not at full capacity with your current offer, fill those spots first before adding complexity.Excellence creates results, referrals, and reputation. When you spread yourself thin, you become known for dabbling instead of being great at one thing.The restaurant rule applies to coaching too. If your tables are half full on Friday nights, don't launch catering. Fill the seats you already have.Specialists can charge more than generalists. Become the coach for couples who fight about money or the coach who helps people crush six figures of debt.Better results equal better marketing. When clients are getting consistent outcomes, you get more referrals, testimonials, and repeat business naturally.Your clients don't need you to do everything for them. They need you to be excellent at the transformation you're already best at delivering.

Health insurance or health cost-sharing—which is the better fit for your family? With open enrollment upon us, it's the perfect moment to explore your choices. Joining me today is Lauren Gajdek to highlight the key differences between health insurance and health cost-sharing.Lauren Gajdek is the Senior Director of External Affairs at Christian Healthcare Ministries (CHM), an underwriter of Faith & Finance. The Landscape of Traditional Health InsuranceOpen enrollment season is right around the corner—running from November 1 through January 15, 2026. For most people, that means navigating the world of traditional health insurance. These plans typically require you to select doctors and specialists within a designated provider network, often necessitating referrals or pre-authorization before receiving care.While insurance companies provide coverage, their structure can come at a high cost. Premiums and deductibles are often steep, and because insurers operate for profit, patient care and affordability don't always align. For many families, this creates a significant financial burden.How Health Cost Sharing Is DifferentHealth cost-sharing ministries, such as CHM, offer a unique alternative. The end result is the same—your medical bills are taken care of—but the process looks very different.No provider networks: Members are free to choose their own doctors and hospitals.Nonprofit model: Unlike insurance companies, CHM is a ministry. Members send in a set monthly contribution, which is pooled together to reimburse medical costs.Community approach: Instead of being absorbed into a bureaucratic system, members know that their contributions directly help fellow believers in need.Since its founding, CHM has facilitated over $10 billion in shared medical bills.How Does Health Cost-Sharing Work?Here's how it works for a typical family:Choose your provider. Members can see any doctor or hospital as long as the treatment fits CHM's guidelines.Identify as self-pay. This allows members to receive significant discounts often, sometimes as high as 40%.Submit bills to CHM. The ministry coordinates with providers as needed. In the meantime, members may set up a temporary payment plan until reimbursement arrives.The process is straightforward, designed to give families peace of mind while also offering flexibility and savings.What to Keep in Mind During Open EnrollmentWhen weighing your options, consider more than just the monthly premium. Ask:How much am I actually paying out-of-pocket after deductibles, co-pays, and coinsurance?Will my coverage travel with me if I go out of state—or out of the country?With CHM, members don't face co-pays or coinsurance, and qualifying medical bills are shared 100% according to ministry guidelines. Additionally, portability makes it an appealing option for families who want flexibility, regardless of where life takes them.A Biblical Approach to HealthcareAt its core, CHM is more than a healthcare solution—it's a ministry. Members not only share medical expenses but also pray for one another and receive prayer support in return. Every monthly contribution is a gift that directly helps another member in need.CHM reflects biblical principles of bearing one another's burdens while providing a practical, affordable path to healthcare.To explore whether health cost sharing is right for your family this open enrollment season, visit CHMinistries.org/Faith.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I'm refinancing my home and am unsure whether I should roll the closing costs into the new loan or pay them from my investments or retirement accounts. Rolling them into the loan would lower my monthly payment, but is that the wisest choice financially—and biblically?Could you explain where the funds actually come from with a reverse mortgage, who technically owns the home in this arrangement, and whether the FHA backs the loan?My wife and I recently took a required minimum distribution from her IRA and made a qualified charitable distribution to our church. They told us it wasn't tax-deductible and wouldn't issue a receipt. What does the IRS actually require in this situation?Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly Magazine (Become a FaithFi Partner)Christian Healthcare Ministries (CHM)Understanding Reverse: Simplifying the Reverse Mortgage by Dan HultquistWisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on MoneyLook At The Sparrows: A 21-Day Devotional on Financial Fear and AnxietyRich Toward God: A Study on the Parable of the Rich FoolFind a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA) or Certified Christian Financial Counselor (CertCFC)FaithFi App Remember, you can call in to ask your questions most days at (800) 525-7000.

Send us a textChris Cornette, a longtime securities trader who grew up in the business, reveals how the most important innovation that made US capital markets preeminent in the world was the exchange itself.• Cornette's father worked in the P&S (Purchase and Sales) department on Wall Street, eventually becoming the controller of an American Stock Exchange specialist unit• The original Buttonwood Agreement from 1792 created exclusivity among traders that helped establish trust in the market• Exchange specialists subsidized trading in small-cap stocks using profits they made from large-cap stocks• The phrase "your word is your bond" wasn't just a saying but the foundation of the trading system. Exclusion from the exchange was enough of a threat to discipline bad actors• Specialists would ensure market liquidity and "continuity" in pricing, preventing wild price swings• The transition to electronic trading and decimal pricing in the late 1990s fundamentally changed market dynamics• High-frequency trading firms don't have the same ethical obligations that floor traders did• The number of publicly traded companies has declined significantly since the move to screen-based trading• Self-regulation through the exchange helped create trust that made markets function effectively. Not perfectly, but effectively.If you have questions or comments, or want to suggest a future topic, email the show at taitc.email@gmail.com ! You can follow Mike Munger on Twitter at @mungowitz
