You Are Stronger Than You ThinkAfter SEVEN YEARS of Raw & Unscripted… this remains one of the MOST powerful, emotional, inspiring, and talked-about episodes we've ever done.This conversation with Monica Kretschmer is raw humanity at its finest.We talk about:

This week, I'm taking a fresh look at something that's been cropping up in my life—perspective. What if, instead of asking God to give us what we want, we started asking Him to show us a glimpse of what we're actually capable of? During a recent walk (inspired by a simple exercise challenge), I found myself wondering about the gap between what I believe I can do and what my Heavenly Father knows I'm capable of. How much more could we accomplish if we truly understood our divine DNA?I'm also sharing insights from a recent coaching call with my group clients, where one member showed vulnerability and worried it made her look weak—when in reality, her honesty and resilience inspired everyone. I know I'm not the only one who sometimes feels inadequate or suffers from imposter syndrome, but here's the twist: Most people only see your strength and assume you're doing better than you think you are. So here's my invitation: Let's lean into the magnificent truth that you are stronger, better, and more impactful than you know—simply because of who you are and your divine heritage.Please share this episode with someone who needs to hear it.

Psalm 104 Day 3 — You Are Stronger Than You Think Psalm 104:10-13 “You make springs gush forth in the valleys; they flow between the hills,  giving drink to every wild animal; the wild asses quench their thirst.  By the streams, the birds of the air have their habitation; they sing among the branches. From your lofty abode, you water the mountains; the earth is satisfied with the fruit of your work.” Today, we are back with Psalm 104. If you missed Monday's episode, I have decided to stick with Psalm 104 and break it down into smaller sections. The reason I chose Psalm 104 is that it shows us so many things we can be grateful for and the many ways God provides for and looks out for us. Psalm 104 also shows us His power and majesty, and I think it is a good idea to stop and reflect on that often. Otherwise, it can be easy to take the Lord for granted, since He is always there for us, and much of what He does goes unnoticed because we don't really think about how much He is doing. We think it just happens. For instance, we take for granted the sun coming up and going down because it happens every day. However, it wouldn't happen if God didn't make it happen. If He hadn't created the earth to spin the way that it does. Today's verse starts by talking about how God makes the springs gush in the valleys and flow between the hills, giving drink to every wild animal. Did you ever think about how great it is that there is water spread worldwide? There is water in the mountains, there are oceans of water, but then there are also streams and rivers. Then there is groundwater you can tap with a well if necessary. It's also interesting that where water is more scarce, the Lord created the things that live there to suit their environment. In a desert, plants like the cactus have water-storing characteristics. You also have camels in a desert, and they are extremely efficient with the amount of water they use daily. They can go for about a week without drinking water. They can also drink a lot of water in a short amount of time. A typical camel can drink 53 gallons of water in three minutes. Isn't it amazing how God thought of everything all the earth's creatures would need and then created us to meet those needs? Next, it says, “By the streams, the birds of the air have their habitation; they sing among the branches.” Water is important to birds, just like it is to all animals. Birds build their habitat in many different places depending on what the bird needs. Some build them on the ground, and yet they know this makes the nest more vulnerable, so they camouflage them well. Many others build them high off the ground so they won't be so vulnerable. They make the nests out of various materials. It depends on what they can find and what their needs are. Isn't it amazing that God always provides for them exactly what they need? The verse ends with, “From your lofty abode, you water the mountains; the earth is satisfied with the fruit of your work.” This part reminds us of how easy it is for God to provide for us. He doesn't have to lift a finger. He just spoke the world into existence, and it was so perfectly made. He can sit up in heaven and command things to happen down here. I like how the verse says, “The earth is satisfied with the fruit of your work.” The earth is satisfied with His work because He thought of everything when He created the world and all its creatures. When I think about how easily God created the world and how He thought of everything, even the smallest detail, and then made sure to provide for that detail, I feel better about the things I ask the Lord for. When I take the time to think about His marvelous creations and how he just spoke the words and the whole universe was created, then it reminds me that when I ask the Lord for things, I am not asking for too much. This is something we often think. We don't bring our little cares and worries to the Lord because we don't want to bother Him. We don't ask Him for healing for every ache and pain because we know how busy He is. The thing is, He is never too busy for anything you want to bring to Him. He is not busy because what would be impossible for us is easy for Him. He is not bound by the same worldly constraints as we are. God isn't even bound by time. All things are happening at the same time for the Lord. That means it is okay if you did not say the prayer you wanted to say for someone before they left on a trip. You can still say the prayer now, and it will help them because God sees you saying that prayer as they are going away.  I know that is a lot to wrap your head around, and we don't have to understand it perfectly. I don't actually think it is possible to fully grasp the majesty of God on this side of heaven. There is much that will remain a mystery, and we may have many questions we want to ask God once we join Him for all eternity. For now, I think it is important for all of us to know that we are not asking God for too much. He is not too busy for us to come to Him with all the little things in our lives. He cares about the small things just as much as He cares about the big things. Also, there is nothing too hard for God. Sometimes, I think we hesitate to ask God for the things we really want because we think it is too big an ask. It is too much to ask God for a complete healing of terminal cancer because the doctors said it wasn't possible. Guess what? All things are possible for God. It is not hard for God to cure terminal cancer. He can curse that cancer and can shrivel up and die. Did you know you can do this, too? You have the power of the Lord living inside of you. You have permission from God to speak with authority because of the power that lives inside of you. God wants us to come to Him with everything. Good or bad, big or small, He is our Father, and He wants to hear all about it. He also likes it when we use the power we have living inside us to help ourselves and others. Remember when I talked about how He created the camels and cactus with the ability to store water? God gave them what they needed to live in their environments. God did the same for us. He gave us the Holy Spirit to help us live in this world. This means we have all the power and the strength we need to survive this world. With the Holy Spirit inside of us, we have the wisdom and knowledge to do the right thing. We just need to ask. We have the power to heal. We just need to realize we have this power and use it. We have the power to resist sin. We just need to call on it. God created us to be the people we are, and He gave us all we need to live in this world. I know this world is crazy, and it seems to be falling apart. I know this world wants less and less to do with God. However, He knew this would happen. None of this is a surprise to the Lord, and He created you to live in this time. That means He knew all you would need, and He gave it to you. If you feel you lack anything right now, that is a lie from the enemy. Your Heavenly Father knew exactly what you would need and gave it to you. You have the same power that raised Jesus from the dead living inside of you. Rely on that power, call on that power. You are stronger than you think you are. Dear Heavenly Father, we ask you to bless everyone listening to this episode today. We ask that you help us to see how perfectly you made us. Please help us understand how you meet all of our needs. Lord, you are amazing. You have thought of everything when you created the world. We are in awe of how perfectly you created nature to fulfill all of our needs. You are truly remarkable. Lord, we ask you to help us bring everything to you, big or small. We ask that you let us know if you want to help with everything. Help us, Lord, to discover the power we have living inside of us and help us to rely on that power more than we rely on ourselves. We love you, Lord, and we ask all of this in accordance with your will and in Jesus's holy name, Amen! Thank you so much for joining me on this journey to walk boldly with Jesus. Let's get this message out to more people. Share this episode with someone you love or someone who has been on your heart. I look forward to meeting you all here again tomorrow. Remember, Jesus loves you just as you are, and so do I! Have a blessed day! Today's Word from the Lord was received in October 2025 by a member of my Catholic Charismatic Prayer Group. If you have any questions about the prayer group, these words, or how to join us for a meeting, please email CatholicCharismaticPrayerGroup@gmail.com.

Want more plays to choose from? Pre-order ⁠The Mental Strength Playbook⁠ before April 28th and get exclusive bonuses delivered instantly — including a mental strength audit and the book's introduction. Imagine being a therapist from small-town Maine who has never spoken in front of more than 20 people — and suddenly finding yourself backstage at a massive conference, about to share a stage with Gary Vee. That's exactly what happened to me. And instead of running for the exit, I ran a play. Here's what that means — and how you can run a play to solve any situation or uncomfortable emotional experience you find yourself in. Some of the things I talk about are: The story of my very first big speaking gig — sharing a stage with Gary Vaynerchuk as a therapist from Maine with zero experience on stages like that one. The "Act As If" play — what it is, why it works, and how cognitive dissonance and behavioral activation explain the science behind it. Why "Act As If" isn't the same as toxic positivity or fake-it-till-you-make-it. A completely different situation that called for a completely different play — and how the If/Then Plan saved a 3-hour workshop. The 3Ps framework — Pause, Pick, Play — and how to use it to find the right play for any situation you face. How to figure out whether your thinking, your emotions, or your actions need support — because those are three different problems that call for three different plays. Why an imperfect play you actually run beats a perfect play you never do.

Want to know how to run the plays that will help you stay mentally strong? Pre-order The Mental Strength Playbook. Have you ever had to show up to do something when you felt like you had nothing to give? Or have you doubted your ability to handle a challenge because you didn't feel strong enough? Fortunately, you don't have to feel strong to be strong. And today, I'm sharing why. Some of the things I talk about are: The hardest thing I've ever had to do—and how it redefined my understanding of strength. Why your feelings of fear, doubt, or anxiety aren't proof that you're weak. The two biggest myths about mental strength—and how they might be holding you back. A simple 3-step formula—"Pause, Pick, Play"—that can help you take action when you aren't feeling strong. How to stop running plays that give you short-term relief but make long-term challenges harder. Why mental strength isn't about denying pain or glorifying suffering. It's about taking action, even when it's hard. How to identify and run plays that actually move you forward. A funny update to my "Victory Vault" story that proves rejection isn't the end of the road.

You snap at the kids. You’re exhausted. You promise, “I’ll do better tomorrow.” This week we learned something powerful: we are stronger than we think — but that doesn’t mean we’re limitless. From a sunrise alarm clock that changed our mornings… to a 15-year-old riding 20km before school… to a stadium concert that tested endurance… to a parenting moment that missed the mark — this episode is about resilience, sacrifice, and what really makes families stronger. Because sometimes the win isn’t perfection.It’s showing up again tomorrow. KEY POINTS Why a sunrise alarm clock transformed our mornings (and kept phones out of the bedroom) The hidden power of supporting your teen’s big goals A live school experiment proving we all have more in the tank Why resilience is relational What exhaustion does to even “expert” parents The difference between sacrifice and choosing what matters more QUOTE OF THE EPISODE “You are stronger than you think — but how you push through matters.” RESOURCES MENTIONED Sunrise Alarm Clock ACTION STEPS FOR PARENTS Keep phones out of bedrooms for one week and notice the difference. When your child sets a hard goal, ask: How can I support this? The next time you think you’re done, try 10% more. Protect sleep like it protects your parenting. If you blow it, model repair. Say sorry. Start again. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Why can't the UK shake its "confidence rut" despite having a £1 trillion savings buffer? How are global "populist" spending trends forcing the bond market to act as a fiscal referee? And is the UK actually poised to become an AI superpower? In this episode, Robert and Steph welcome back Karen Ward, Chief Market Strategist for EMEA at J.P. Morgan Asset Management and former advisor to the Chancellor. The discussion dives deep into the 'split personality' of the UK economy, where high financial stability in the private sector is juxtaposed with a pervasive lack of confidence in government by consumers and business.

Uncovering Your True Potential: You're Stronger Than You Think!Watch it here: https://youtu.be/kIOPHYWGtrEChris welcomes listeners back to the Further Your Lifestyle Podcast and introduces Episode 246, using “roundabouts” as a metaphor for feeling stuck because of indecision rather than lack of progress. He explains how busyness can create an illusion of momentum while masking fear of commitment and change, and how overthinking, over-researching, and fear of taking the wrong exit can lead to procrastination. He discusses overwhelm from too many options, the importance of clarifying what you truly want, and not letting external opinions dictate your choices, sharing his own example of building a successful clothing business on eBay despite others saying it wasn't possible. Chris emphasizes that wrong exits can still provide learning and boundaries, that sometimes you must create your own path, and that decisions require intention and consideration of consequences. He ends with reflection questions about what you're currently circling, what fears are holding you back, what could open up if you act, and a reminder that motion without forward movement isn't growth; exiting doesn't require certainty, just direction and confidence, with a nod to prior episodes 244 and 245 on small changes.00:00 Welcome Back + Why You Feel Stuck Mid-Year01:21 The Roundabout Metaphor: Circling Without Choosing an Exit02:42 Illusion of Momentum: Busy Doesn't Mean Progress04:24 Fear of the Wrong Exit: Overthinking & Analysis Paralysis05:39 Too Many Signs: Overwhelm, Clarity, and Ignoring Outside Noise07:24 Take the Exit Anyway: Learn, Pivot, and Build Your Own Road09:15 Calculated Risks: Quitting Jobs, Real-Life Constraints, and Change10:09 Reflection Questions + Final Push to Choose Direction12:11 Wrap-Up: Share the Episode & See You Next WeekPodcast Sponsors:Robert PiperHi Voltage BargainsEthan “Rooshock” The BOLO Hunter PODCAST: https://www.furtheryourlifestyle.com/► SUBSCRIBE to the podcast on▹ Spotify | https://bit.ly/FYL_Spotify▹ Apple Podcast | https://bit.ly/FYL_Apple▹ Google Podcast | https://bit.ly/FYL_GooglePod► Let's CONNECT on social media:▹ instagram | http://www.instagram.com/furtheryourlifestyle▹ email | hello@furtheryourlifestyle.comMUSIC:» via https://www.epidemicsound.com/referral/6hfvrvContinue the conversation: @furtheryourlifestyleJoin the Newsletter: check it out

Dr. Robert Koons has two forthcoming books on Aquinas's Five Ways—one popular, one academic—so we spend this episode walking through how he understands and defends each of the Five Ways, and why they're far more philosophically interesting than they're usually given credit for.  For more philosophy content, check out Pat's Substack at https://journalofabsolutetruth.substack.com/ 

In this episode, Brandon sits down with an educator and school principal, Kyle Sarka, to explore Stoic resilience—not as brute toughness, but as endurance guided by wisdom.The conversation moves fluidly between Stoic philosophy, leadership, fitness, history, and modern life, examining what it really means to persevere when outcomes are uncertain and comfort is abundant.Rather than glorifying suffering for its own sake, this episode argues that resilience is about knowing when to endure, when to adapt, and when to step back—and having the courage to act either way.

In this episode of Catholic Moms in the Middle, I'm reflecting on what it means to enter 2026 feeling stretched—but not broken. So many of us have walked through a year that stretched us mentally, emotionally, physically, and spiritually in ways we never would have chosen. And when you're in it, that stretching often feels like breaking. In this episode, I invite you to pause before rushing into a new year and to gently look back at 2025 not the highlight reel, but the real moments. The grief, the growth, the hidden blessings, and the quiet ways God was present even when it didn't feel like it. We'll talk about how stretching, when held in God's hands, isn't meant to weaken us, but t's meant to form us. How strength is often built in tension, surrender, and dependence on God rather than self-reliance. And how what feels like being broken open may actually be God creating more space for His grace. If you've been carrying a lot, if you're weary, or if you're stepping into this new year unsure of what comes next, this episode is for you. My prayer is that you'll leave encouraged, grounded, and reminded that you are stronger than you think—because God has been at work in the stretching.

Edward Yardeni joins Soar Financially to recap his major market calls and lay out his outlook for 2026. We discuss market “fatigue” versus fear, the potential rotation away from Big Tech, excessive fiscal and monetary stimulus, and why Yardeni believes the U.S. economy remains resilient. He also explains why gold is a geopolitical hedge, not an inflation hedge, and why he sees a path toward $10,000 gold and a 10,000 S&P 500 by the end of the decade.#gold #2026outlook #tech ----------Thank you to our #sponsor MONEY METALS.

Ali Truwit didn't know if she would survive. Shortly after graduating from Yale, where she was a competitive swimmer, she was on vacation when she was attacked by a shark. Thanks to her incredible strength and the quick actions of her friends—one of whom applied a life-saving tourniquet—Ali survived, though she lost her lower leg in the attack. And now? She's a two-time Paralympic silver medalist and amputee who has turned a senseless tragedy into a powerful mission of hope. Ali shares her remarkable journey of recovery, from the early days of facing a debilitating fear of water to becoming an American record holder and medaling at the Paris Paralympics. We discuss everything from the power of community and support systems to the "stronger than you think" philosophy that led to the creation of her nonprofit and documentary. IN THIS EPISODE The emotional experience of running the NYC Marathon with her support system The details of the shark attack and the heroic actions of her friend, Sophie Learning to find hope and joy after trauma The "permission to feel and intention to reset" strategy Redefining what's possible in a "new body" The mission behind her nonprofit, Stronger Than You Think Representing the Paralympic movement in Sports Illustrated Swimsuit and in her work as a Nike athlete QUOTABLE MOMENTS On Mindset and Resilience "The message that we're stronger than we think is for everyone. We all go through hard times and trauma and hardship and I think that message that you have more in you is something that I hope everyone sees." "If you ask 'why me?' ... make sure you're asking it in both directions." "Our fears and our feelings are not facts." On the Power of Community "Community really is so important. I think about my journey as a testament to the power of community and support." "There really is no wrong form of support. Whatever you have to give, whenever you have to give it, matters and moves the person forward." On Growth and New Beginnings "I'm swimming faster than I ever swam in certain events with two legs. It's a message to myself of what is still possible for me in this new body." "I can take this bad, senseless trauma that happened to me and use it for good." "It's just as likely that things can go better than you expect than it is that they might not go well at all."

This week on Groove with Portia, I open with a story close to my heart — a moment when unexpected jewelry reminded me of my uncle's powerful words: “Let go. Let God.” It brought me back to gratitude, to presence, and to the divine ways signs show up in our lives when we need them most.Then I sit down with Rachel Samani, founder of The Honest Jeweler, a woman who took her deepest personal struggles and turned them into soulful reminders of resilience. Rachel shares how her unique spinner rings helped her transform her inner critic into an inner coach, and how grief—especially walking through her daughter's loss of a best friend—became a bridge to deeper empathy, strength, and love.Rachel's brand isn't just about jewelry. It's about wearing your healing and remembering your power every time you look at your hand. From being present for her 14-year-old daughter in the depths of sadness, to learning that silence and holding space are often the most powerful responses—we talk about it all. We also touch on perfectionism, identity, leadership, and how grief reshapes your worldview.She shares the inspiration behind her Naomi Ring, the process of engraving pieces on-site, and how every product she creates carries a story of overcoming. Whether you're navigating loss, trying to build something meaningful, or learning to hear your inner voice again—this episode is your reminder that grief leaves us with gifts, too.Connect with Rachel: https://thehonestjewelershop.com/

Have you ever pushed so hard to become "enough?" Going for all the external achievements, those goals and milestones? That's where this episode begins — with my own spiritual healing journey, one that changed everything I thought I knew about self-worth, healing, and power. TIMESTAMPS: 00:00 – Why I Finally Shared My Spiritual Healing Journey 03:15 – From Feeling Invisible to Chasing Worth 07:40 – Saying Yes to Ayahuasca 10:55 – The Moment Everything Shifted 16:45 – Integrating the Healing Journey   For most of my life, I was driven by the need to prove myself — to be someone, to never go back to feeling small or unseen. And for a while, that drive worked… until it didn't. It left me exhausted, disconnected, and numb. I'm sharing something I never thought I would: my ayahuasca experience — what led me there, what I saw, and how it cracked me open in ways I didn't know I needed. This isn't a story about plant medicine.  It's about what happens when you finally stop pushing and start listening — when you surrender instead of hustle. It's about remembering your deeper self — the one that's always been powerful and whole. Inside the podcast:  THE DRIVE TO PROVE: How chasing self-worth through achievement is a losing battle REMEMBERING YOUR POWER: Finding the strength that's always been inside of you LETTING GO TO HEAL: Why real spiritual healing often begins when you stop trying to fix yourself and start trusting yourself instead. You don't need ayahuasca to begin your own healing journey — just a willingness to look within and listen.  Listen to next:Ep 323 Spiritual Awakening with Paola Sellaro

In Episode 4 of our Great Coaches series, Kelly talks with Ali Truwit, who went from Yale Division I swimmer to shark attack survivor to Paralympic silver medalist in just over a year. Two days after her college graduation, a snorkeling trip in Turks and Caicos ended with Ali losing her left foot and part of her leg as a result of a shark attack. What followed wasn't just a physical recovery but a complete reimagining of identity, guided by coaches who understood that rebuilding Ali meant helping her see what was still there, not what was lost.

We often admire strength and resilience in others while doubting we have it ourselves. But here's the truth: strength doesn't always look bold and unshakable, and resilience doesn't always feel like bouncing back quickly. Most of the time, this actually looks a lot more like exhaustion, baby steps forward, and continuing to show up.In this episode, we'll rethink what it really means to be a woman of strength and resilience. From identifying with (or bawling through) Luisa's “Surface Pressure” song in Encanto to the practice of keeping a simple “ta-da list,” you'll discover that you're already stronger than you think. And when your own capacity feels like it's run out, God's Word reminds us that His strength shows up in our weakness.Episode HighlightsHow we view strength and resilience in others vs what it actually looks likePractical ways to identify and validate your own strength and resilience in daily lifeThe value of showing up rather than looking tough2 Corinthians 12:9 - “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.”Resources MentionedGive Yourself Credit - You Do a Lot! - “Ta-Da” List Journal Shop all Merciful Mornings journalsListen to “Surface Pressure” from EncantoRelated Episodes You Might Also LikeEP 3 - Encouragement for the Woman Who is Drowning in OverwhelmEP 18 - Giving Yourself Grace Through Seasons of LifeEP 21 - 5 Tips to Keep Going and Never Give UpEP 39 - The Source of Empowerment with Becky BeresfordEP 59 - Rethinking the Proverbs 31 Woman: Inspiration, Not ExpectationEP 64 - Letting Go Isn't Giving Up: The Faithful Fight Against Anxiety with Nichole SuvarConnect with RachelWebsite: racheldbaker.comInstagram: @rachel.d.baker Email: rachel@racheldbaker.comIt means so much to me that you are part of this community!

The headlines don't tell the full story. Behind the noise, the net lease sector is stronger and more dynamic than most investors realize — with nearly 99% occupancy in REIT portfolios and opportunities emerging across multiple sectors.In this episode of What's in Store, Karly Iacono and Chris Ressa go beyond the headlines to uncover the hidden strengths and future potential of net lease. From retail to alternative asset classes, we break down the metrics, trends, and investor strategies that are shaping the market right now.

In this episode of the Matthews Mentality Podcast, host Kyle Matthews sits down with Dr. Chris Thornberg, one of the most respected economic voices in the country and founding partner of Beacon Economics. The discussion covers a range of topics including the current U.S. economy, the housing market, interest rates, and the future of AI in labor markets. Dr. Thornberg provides data-driven insights and shares his perspective on why Americans are currently living in one of the best times in history, despite prevalent narratives of economic hardship. The conversation also touches on the challenges and potential risks facing the economy, such as the growing federal deficit and asset bubbles. Tune in for an enlightening discussion that offers a contrarian but accurate take on the economic landscape.

On this Make A Difference Minute, I'm encouraging listeners to remember the strength they've already proven in past challenges. Life's setbacks can leave us feeling weak or defeated, but resilience often shows up in small, quiet ways, like taking one more step when it would be easier to stop. This segment is a reminder that if you've made it this far, you already have what it takes to keep moving forward. You're stronger than you think.

Our CIO and Chief U.S. Equity Strategist Mike Wilson explains how his outlook on earnings and valuations give him a constructive view on U.S. equities for the next 12 months.Read more insights from Morgan Stanley.----- Transcript -----Mike Wilson: Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Mike Wilson, Morgan Stanley's CIO and Chief U.S. Equity Strategist. Today on the podcast I'll discuss where there is the most push back to our Mid-year outlook and why I remain convicted in our generally constructive view on U.S. equities for the next 12 months.It's Monday, June 2nd at 11:30am in New York.So, let's get after it.To briefly summarize our outlook, we have maintained our 6500 12-month price target for the S&P 500 this year despite what has been a very volatile first five months – both in terms of news flow and price action. Part of the reason we didn't change this view stems from the fact that we expected the first half to be challenging for U.S. stocks but to be followed by a more favorable second half. Much of this was related to our view that the new administration would pursue the growth negative part of their policy agenda first. This played out -- with their focus on immigration enforcement, spending cutbacks and tariffs. In addition to these policy adjustments, we also expected AI capex to decelerate in the first half after such fast growth last year. All of these factors conspired to weigh on both economic growth and earnings revisions.Second, the way in which tariffs were rolled out on Liberation Day was a shock to most market participants, including us, and served as the perfect catalyst for what can only be described as capitulation selling by many institutional investors. That capitulation has set the stage for the very reflexive snap back in equity prices that is also supported by a positive rate of change on policy, earnings revisions breadth, financial conditions and a weaker U.S. dollar.The main push back to our views centers on our constructive earnings outlook for high single digit growth both this year and next and our view that valuations can remain elevated at 21.5x forward Earnings. On the earnings front, our calendar year earnings estimates already incorporate a mid-single-digit percent hit to bottoms-up consensus forecasts. Second, our Leading Earnings Indicator which projects Earnings Per Share growth 12 months out is suggesting a sideways consolidation in growth in the high single-digit range over the next year.Third, a weaker dollar, elements of the tax bill and AI-driven productivity should be incremental tailwinds for earnings that are not in our model. Fourth, we have experienced rolling recessions for many sectors of the private economy for the last 3 years, which makes growth comparisons easier. Finally, and most importantly, the rate of change on earnings revisions breadth has inflected higher from a very low level after a year-long downturn. On valuation, our work shows that if earnings growth is above the long-term median of 7 percent and if the fed funds rate is down on a year-over-year basis, it's very rare to see multiple compression. In fact, Price Earnings multiples have expanded 90 percent of the time under these conditions to the tune of 9 percent over a 12- month period. Therefore, in some ways we're being conservative with our forecast for the S&P 500's price earnings ratio to remain flat at current levels over the next year.With respect to our favorite valuation metric, the equity risk premium, it's interesting to note that in the week following Liberation Day, the Equity Risk Premium reached the same level we witnessed in the aftermath of the 9-11 shock in 2001 and even exceeded the risk premium reached during the Long-Term Capital Management crisis in 1998. Both episodes resulted in 20 percent corrections to the S&P 500 much like we experienced this year only to be followed by very strong equity markets over the next year.The bottom line is that I remain convicted in both our earnings forecast for high single digit earnings growth for this year and next; and my view that valuations can remain elevated in this classic late cycle expansion of slower economic growth that typically elicits interest rate cuts from the Fed.Thanks for tuning in; I hope you found it informative and useful.
