David McKnight addresses a brand new proposal that could transform the way Americans use Roth IRAs and Roth 401(k) – and that could have serious implications for your retirement flexibility, liquidity, and long-term tax strategy. With the current status quo, if a person has money in a 401(k) or even a Roth 401(k), they can usually roll it out into an IRA when they retire or leave their job. However, money can't roll the other direction: you can't take a Roth IRA and move it into a Roth 401(k)... A new bipartisan bill introduced by Republican Representative Darin LaHood and Democrat Representative Linda Sánchez aims to change that. Under this proposal, you could roll your Roth IRA into an employer-sponsored Roth account like a Roth 401(k), a Roth 403(b) or even a Roth 457 plan. This change could mean less paperwork, potentially lower fees, and a simpler investment picture. David cites simplicity, cost and protection as a few of the reasons why lawmakers may want this bill to pass. One of the incentives for Washington may have to do with the fact that encouraging people to use Roth accounts – which are taxed up front – can generate more short-term tax revenue for the government. Everything isn't as good as it seems, though. David lists a few of the trade-offs involved with this potential change. Firstly, loss of control. When your money is in a Roth IRA, you can invest it wherever you want: Index funds, EFTs, individual stocks, and more. With an employer plan, your investment menu would be limited by the options the plan administrator offers. The so-called Five-Year Rule is another aspect worth considering. Typically, every Roth account has to be open for at least five years or until 59 ½, whichever is later, before earnings can be withdrawn tax-free.  Here's the tricky part: Each different kind of Roth account has its own five-year clock. This could turn into a logistical nightmare for plan administrators. David shares some final considerations regarding who would benefit and who may get negatively affected by the proposed bill and points out that "Not all Roths are created equal."     Mentioned in this episode: David's new book, available now for pre-order: The Secret Order of Millionaires David's national bestselling book: The Guru Gap: How America's Financial Gurus Are Leading You Astray, and How to Get Back on Track Tax-Free Income for Life: A Step-by-Step Plan for a Secure Retirement by David McKnight DavidMcKnight.com DavidMcKnightBooks.com PowerOfZero.com (free video series) @mcknightandco on Twitter  @davidcmcknight on Instagram David McKnight on YouTube Get David's Tax-free Tool Kit at taxfreetoolkit.com Darin LaHood Linda Sánchez Employment Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA)

In today's episode, David McKnight breaks down the creditor protection rules for Roth IRAs and Roth 401(k)s, as well as why more and more Americans are turning to tax-free accounts to insulate themselves from creditors… and the Government itself. In theory, under Federal Law, all IRAs traditional or Roths receive a certain level of bankruptcy protection under the Bankruptcy Abuse Prevention and Consumer Protection Act of 2005. However, that protection is specifically tied to bankruptcy proceedings. If you're sued in civil court, the Federal bankruptcy statute doesn't automatically apply, state law takes over… By pointing out differences between states like Texas, Arizona and Florida on one end, and California and Montana on the other, David explains that whether your Roth IRA survives a potential lawsuit intact depends largely on the state in which you reside. Roth 401(k)s play by a different set of rules, as they fall under the 1974 Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA). David notes that "ERISA is the big Federal law that governs most employer-sponsored retirement plans, and it comes with some of the strongest creditor  protection available anywhere in the financial world."  According to David, it's not hard to see why the Federal Government is going to need huge infusions of new revenue in the very near future. Wondering how they will be raising that capital? By targeting the nearly $45 trillion in tax-deferred retirement accounts like IRAs and 401(k). In other words, while your retirement accounts may indeed be largely immune to lawsuits, they're entirely exposed to the impact of rising tax rates. David points out that contributing to 401(k)s or IRAs is like going into a business partnership with the IRS – every year, they get to vote on what percentage of your profits they get to keep. Remember: a well-planned Roth strategy doesn't just shield you from tomorrow's higher tax rates, it can also serve as a fortress protecting your wealth from outside claims.     Mentioned in this episode: David's new book, available now for pre-order: The Secret Order of Millionaires David's national bestselling book: The Guru Gap: How America's Financial Gurus Are Leading You Astray, and How to Get Back on Track Tax-Free Income for Life: A Step-by-Step Plan for a Secure Retirement by David McKnight DavidMcKnight.com DavidMcKnightBooks.com PowerOfZero.com (free video series) @mcknightandco on Twitter  @davidcmcknight on Instagram David McKnight on YouTube Get David's Tax-free Tool Kit at taxfreetoolkit.com Bankruptcy Abuse Prevention and Consumer Protection Act of 2005 Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA)

Send us a textMany of us want the holiday season to be a time of connection and celebration, but this time of year can also be complicated. Family gatherings can come with unspoken tension, old dynamics resurface, expectations rise, and the pressure to “keep the peace” can collide with our deep desire to protect and affirm our kids. And for some, this season can bring loneliness, depression, or grief—not warmth. We know you're navigating all of that. And you don't have to do it alone. Today In the Den, Sara is joined by therapist David Zealy-Wright to talk honestly about what the holidays can stir up, how to prepare for tough conversations, how to set boundaries with love, how to care for ourselves while caring for our kids, and how to find moments of joy and grounding even in challenging spaces.Special Guest: David Zealy-WrightDavid is a Licensed Professional Counselor (Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor), a Licensed Clinical Addictions Specialist, and a Clinical Supervisor Intern(Certified Clinical Supervisor).

Integrating small-group learning, online simulations, and reflective practice may improve competency outcomes. Drs. Rashmi P. Momin and Kala Christopherson describe a multimodal intervention –  the Small-group Learning, Mega Skills Lab, Online Escape Rooms, and Reflection (SMOR) Toolkit – that they developed to enhance students'  competencies in health assessment, diagnostic reasoning, and clinical documentation. They share the toolkit and other resources in their article.

Each of them works directly with campuses and headquarters staff across the country and will share a concise snapshot of: • The programs and interventions they're delivering right now • The outcomes advisors are seeing in real time • The issues they're being asked to address most frequently • And how their work can support your goals for 2026 Think of tonight as a curated menu — not something you need to adopt all at once, but a way to identify the right tools, voices, and partnerships that align with your campus culture, challenges, and priorities. Whether you're preparing for Spring new member trainings, onboarding new officers, navigating conduct concerns, responding to mental health needs, or simply trying to be more proactive instead of reactive — our hope is that tonight gives you clarity, confidence, and options. At the end of the session, you'll know exactly which programs might fit your campus, and how our team can support you as a long-term partner heading into 2026.

This episode features David McKnight sharing the top five reasons why a Roth 401(k) is far superior to a traditional 401(k). Something important to keep in mind: the decision you make today will determine how much of your retirement money your future self actually gets to keep. David touches upon the fact that choosing the wrong 401(k) could cost you hundreds of thousands of dollars in unnecessary taxes in retirement. Tax rate risk is the first big reason why you should consider investing in a Roth 401(k) over a traditional 401(k). David lists a series of key questions people who invest in a traditional 401(k) often fail to ask themselves. The second reason to consider a Roth 401(k) over a traditional 401(k) is Social Security taxation. Most people believe that Social Security is tax-free…but it's not. 50% of your Social Security, plus wages, pensions, and interest, as well as all withdrawals from traditional IRAs and traditional 401(k)s, are what the IRS counts as provisional income. The third reason for choosing a Roth 401(k) and not a traditional 401(k) has to do with something that most retirees never plan for: Income-Related Monthly Adjustment Amount (IRMAA). Remember: "When you control your taxable income, you control your Medicare costs." Required Minimum Distributions (or RMDs) are the fourth reason for opting for a Roth 401(k). The fifth reason for going for a Roth 401(k) instead of a traditional 401(k) has to do with your heirs. When they inherit a traditional 401(k), it becomes a tax bomb. So, why choose a Roth 401(k) over a traditional 401(k)? Because a Roth 401(k) helps you eliminate tax rate risk, avoid Social Security taxation traps, prevent Medicare premium explosions, stay in control of withdrawals, and leave tax-free income to your heirs.     Mentioned in this episode: David's new book, available now for pre-order: The Secret Order of Millionaires David's national bestselling book: The Guru Gap: How America's Financial Gurus Are Leading You Astray, and How to Get Back on Track Tax-Free Income for Life: A Step-by-Step Plan for a Secure Retirement by David McKnight DavidMcKnight.com DavidMcKnightBooks.com PowerOfZero.com (free video series) @mcknightandco on Twitter  @davidcmcknight on Instagram David McKnight on YouTube Get David's Tax-free Tool Kit at taxfreetoolkit.com

In the summer of 2024, Irise brought together a diverse group of young people from across the UK, alongside their allies and educators to directly inform a ‘Toilet Policy Toolkit', to equip schools with the tools they need to create a Toilet Policy that works for everyone. https://www.irise.org.uk/uk-schools-toilet-policy-toolkitKelly Greenaway is phs Group's period equality lead. Over the past nine years with the hygiene provider she has led a number of thought-leadership campaigns, which have eventually been sewn into the identity of the business. From tackling period inequality and campaigning for better access to period products for people in a variety of locations, to championing the need for dignified disposal for men, Kelly has put purpose at the heart of phs.Chrissy Cattle - CEO of Irise International Irise is an award winning, global leader in menstrual justice programming, policy and research. Takeaways: The podcast discusses a newly developed toilet policy toolkit aimed at enhancing period equity in schools. This toolkit was co-created by educators and young activists to address the issue of toilet access. Research indicates that many students face significant barriers when trying to access school toilets, including the need for permission and limited availability. The conversation emphasizes the importance of listening to young people's experiences and incorporating their feedback into effective policy-making. The podcast highlights the collaboration between organizations to drive change in menstrual health and hygiene education. Both guests underscore the necessity of improving toilet accessibility to support students' health and well-being during their menstrual cycles.

"Our greatest fear should not be of failure but of succeeding at things that don't really matter." — Francis ChanSHOW NOTESEPISODE HIGHLIGHTS Drop the Hammer: Stop measuring your worth by your holiday performance. Practice self-compassion and apply grace to yourself before anyone else this season. Value the Value: Prioritize the reason for your activities (love, connection, celebration of Jesus) over the perfect execution of the tasks. Measurement is God's Belief: Your worth is defined by Christ's gift and the extravagant grace He has infused into you, not by your to-do list. His Faith is Your Mechanism: Jesus's faith lives on the inside of you, moving the mechanism of grace and making you equally advantaged in God's love. You Are Infused with Grace: God is head over heels in love with you, and His favor is attached to you on both your good days and your not-so-good days. Thank you for joining me today on the Interviewing Jesus Podcast. That toolkit just keeps getting fuller and fuller every time we open it up! Thank God he never tires of reminding us of the powerful tools of his love—the grace he gives so freely.

This episode sees David McKnight look at Suze Orman, who, despite being one of the most widely recognized financial voices in America, shares what appears to be incomplete advice. David believes that Orman has done a lot of good for a lot of people thanks to her financial discipline-centered approach (in addition to being a big proponent of Roth IRAs). He agrees with Orman: "Roth IRAs are powerful, no doubt about it. You contribute after tax dollars, your money grows tax-free, and, provided you meet the requirements, you can withdraw those funds in retirement 100% tax-free".  The U.S. is currently at historically low income tax rates and, thanks to the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, they have been permanently extended. However, David shares that, when it comes to the IRS tax code, there's no such thing as a permanent extension. David's pet peeve with Orman: getting money into Roth IRAs now (while tax rates are low) isn't something that will truly protect you from rising tax rates in retirement. That's because a Roth IRA by itself isn't enough. In his book The Power of Zero, David advocates for a balanced, comprehensive approach to tax-free retirement that draws from six different streams of tax-free income. David goes through the six strategies and explains why you need each and every one of them if you want to land in the 0% tax bracket in retirement.     Mentioned in this episode: David's new book, available now for pre-order: The Secret Order of Millionaires David's national bestselling book: The Guru Gap: How America's Financial Gurus Are Leading You Astray, and How to Get Back on Track Tax-Free Income for Life: A Step-by-Step Plan for a Secure Retirement by David McKnight DavidMcKnight.com DavidMcKnightBooks.com PowerOfZero.com (free video series) @mcknightandco on Twitter  @davidcmcknight on Instagram David McKnight on YouTube Get David's Tax-free Tool Kit at taxfreetoolkit.com Suze Orman OBBBA (One Big Beautiful Bill Act)

This is not an either or situation. It is an and. Therapy, exercise, medication, and every tool you use to support your mental and emotional health all work together, not in competition. I talk about what a productive relationship with a therapist actually looks like, why it is so hard to find, and why therapy is still the foundation of an inside/out process when it is accessible for you.I also break down a recent social media post that claimed exercise is more effective than therapy or medication. There is truth in the benefits of movement. There is also danger in oversimplifying mental health to a single solution. Exercise is a powerful tool, but it is not therapy. It can support your mental health, but it cannot replace the work that happens in a connected therapeutic relationship.As someone who has been in therapy for years, I share what the process has done for me and why I believe everyone deserves access to a therapist who can help them see their blind spots, develop skills, and work through their internal patterns. I also talk about how much the fitness space reinforces the belief that changing your body will fix how you feel, and how that leads many people into body dysmorphia and cycles of frustration.My hope with this episode is simple. If even one person hears this and begins to be easier on themselves, recognizes their own resilience, or takes a step toward connecting with who they are beneath the surface, then the conversation served its purpose. You deserve tools. You deserve support. You deserve to feel at home in your own head.

Episode Summary: In this episode, Ann Pearson gets straight to the heart of the biggest challenge paralegals face managing an overwhelming workload. Skipping the usual intro, Ann dives right into why so many paralegals feel behind before their day even begins, and why that feeling has nothing to do with their competence. Drawing from her own early-career story of last-minute assignments and impossible timelines, Ann explains the real reason paralegals struggle: no one ever teaches them the systems and structures needed to stay ahead of the chaos. To change that, she introduces a four-step blueprint that helps legal support professionals move from reactive to proactive workload management. Ann also walks listeners through the first section of her new Paralegal Survival Toolkit, a free eight-part resource designed to help paralegals build clarity, control, and confidence in their daily work. As the episode unfolds, she reassures listeners that while the legal workload will always be heavy, the overwhelm doesn't have to be. Key Takeaways: Workload overwhelm is normal and fixable: Feeling behind is not a personal failing; it's part of the legal profession. What can change is your system for handling the workload. Prioritize by impact, not urgency: Inbox urgency is often an illusion. Instead, look for items tied to court deadlines, client deliverables, strategic decisions, or workflows that move a file forward. Map the work before you start the work: Most overwhelm happens because tasks aren't broken down. A project like "prepare discovery responses" contains 8 - 10 steps. Mapping creates clarity and reduces stress. Verify deadlines and assumptions every time: Asking clarifying questions isn't being difficult - it's being professional. Confirm deadlines, expectations, and whether a draft or final version is needed before you begin. Eliminate micro time wasters to reclaim hours: Small inefficiencies, repeated searches, rewriting emails, constant notifications, lack of templates, or unclear instructions add up quickly. System fixes unlock weekly time savings. You can't change the workload, but you can change your control over it. Heavy workloads are unavoidable, but overwhelm isn't. Skills and systems, not more hours, are what make the difference. Get the free Paralegal Survival Toolkit. The downloadable toolkit includes the workload clarity checklist, prioritization prompts, and a project-mapping template. It supports this episode and the seven episodes that follow.

David McKnight addresses three key questions you must be able to answer before executing a single Roth conversion. Too many people go for Roth conversions without a game plan – this is something that can lead to overpaying taxes and running out of money sooner than anticipated. David points out that if you can't answer the three key questions, you should stop and reevaluate because guessing here can cost you big. "What's the total amount I should convert from my IRA or 401(k) to tax-free?" is the first and most critical of the three questions. Remember, the goal of a Roth conversion isn't to get your tax-deferred bucket to zero at all costs. It's to get to the right amount of tax-deferred dollars shifted to tax-free, the amount that allows you to stay in the 0% tax bracket in retirement. "How much should I convert each year?" is the second question and is about pacing your conversion so as to avoid unnecessary exposure to higher tax brackets. The goal is to convert to Roth slowly enough that you don't rise into a tax bracket that gives you heartburn. "Over what time frame should I complete my Roth conversions?" is the third question you should address before executing a Roth conversion. Addressing each of the three questions helps you shift from Roth conversion guesswork to Roth conversion strategy. Be careful. Most financial gurus will say "Roth conversions are great, just pay the tax and move on!"     Mentioned in this episode: David's new book, available now for pre-order: The Secret Order of Millionaires David's national bestselling book: The Guru Gap: How America's Financial Gurus Are Leading You Astray, and How to Get Back on Track Tax-Free Income for Life: A Step-by-Step Plan for a Secure Retirement by David McKnight DavidMcKnight.com DavidMcKnightBooks.com PowerOfZero.com (free video series) @mcknightandco on Twitter  @davidcmcknight on Instagram David McKnight on YouTube Get David's Tax-free Tool Kit at taxfreetoolkit.com OBBBA (One Big Beautiful Bill Act) Donald Trump David Walker

Can science really help us live longer - and feel better while we age? In this episode, longevity expert Kayla Barnes-Lentz joins Jonathan and Dr Federica Amati to explore how daily behaviours, emerging science, and personalised data may shape our health span. Many people believe longevity requires extreme routines or expensive treatments, but new evidence suggests simple habits may have a powerful impact. This conversation asks one central question: how can we age well while still enjoying life? Together, Kayla, Jonathan and Federica explore what longevity science currently understands… and what it still doesn't. Kayla shares her personal journey from chronic fatigue and brain fog to measurable improvements after changing her diet, sleep routine and lifestyle. The discussion covers nutrition, sleep, oral health, fasting, environmental toxins, supplements, wearable tracking, personalised lab testing, and why women may need different guidance based on physiology and life stage. For listeners wanting practical steps, this episode includes guidance on five foundational habits such as consistent sleep timing, reducing late-evening eating, flossing and dental check-ins, supporting your gut and oral microbiome, and increasing plant diversity in meals.  As science continues to uncover how and why we age, what small behaviour could you change today that your future self may thank you for? And if you could meaningfully extend your healthy years, how differently might you live now? Unwrap the truth about your food

The holiday season is upon us. It's a wonderful time, but if we're being honest, it's also a little stressful. Whether you're worried about hosting a big family gathering, talking with cousins who have very different perspectives on politics or awkward questions from prying aunts, the holidays are full of complicated relationship dynamics. On this episode of “Modern Love,” Nedra Glover Tawwab, a therapist, responds to questions from listeners about making the holidays just a bit more tolerable. Tawwab is the author of “Drama Free,” a guide to having better relationships with family, and the forthcoming book “The Balancing Act,” which is all about creating healthy dependency within relationships. She tells us why Black Friday is her practice's busiest day of the year, and how we can all take control of our own holiday experience.  How to submit a Modern Love Essay to the New York TimesHow to submit a Tiny Love Story Subscribe today at nytimes.com/podcasts or on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

David McKnight busts some of the most common Roth conversion myths that are costing retirees hundreds of thousands – if not millions –  of dollars over the course of retirement. The "Don't worry about Roth conversion, you'll be in a lower tax bracket when you retire" myth is based on two flawed assumptions. The first one is that your lifestyle will drop significantly in retirement, while the second is the one related to future tax rates being the same or lower than they are today. David points out that, in retirement, people want to maintain their lifestyle. In some cases, they even spend more in early retirement (think travels, healthcare and helping with kids or grandkids). Let's remember that the U.S. national debt is projected to hit $63 trillion by 2035. The country has unfunded obligations in Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid that total over $200 trillion, and interest on the debt is going to crowd out most of the national budget items by the mid 2030s… The primary value of a Roth conversion is that it pre-pays taxes at historically low rates to avoid paying them later when rates are likely to be higher. Roth conversions not being binary, and the fact that you can get massive tax benefits without having to convert your entire IRA is another big myth David debunks. David explains why you should voluntarily pay taxes instead of delaying that decision. Ever heard of "If you don't have cash to pay the tax, you shouldn't convert"? It's another myth David addresses in this episode. For the millions of Americans who have most of their savings in tax-affirmed accounts, strategic conversions are one of the best ways to insulate yourself from the tax freight train bearing down on America.     Mentioned in this episode: David's new book, available now for pre-order: The Secret Order of Millionaires David's national bestselling book: The Guru Gap: How America's Financial Gurus Are Leading You Astray, and How to Get Back on Track Tax-Free Income for Life: A Step-by-Step Plan for a Secure Retirement by David McKnight DavidMcKnight.com DavidMcKnightBooks.com PowerOfZero.com (free video series) @mcknightandco on Twitter  @davidcmcknight on Instagram David McKnight on YouTube Get David's Tax-free Tool Kit at taxfreetoolkit.com

Today we hear from Dr. Maria Rutmann, founder of Lionheart Direct Primary Care in northern Maine. She discusses the transformative power of the Direct Primary Care (DPC) clinic model as physician burnout and healthcare system challenges escalate nationwide. Dr. Rutmann shares her journey from working in a traditional fee-for-service hospital group - where mounting administrative demands and loss of autonomy led to emotional exhaustion - to reclaiming her purpose and joy in medicine through DPC.Listeners learn how Lionheart DPC empowers physicians to practice value-based care by fostering lasting patient-physician relationships, personalizing health experiences, and eliminating the barriers of insurance-driven healthcare. Dr. Rutmann emphasizes that DPC not only improves healthcare access in rural areas, but also allows doctors the time and freedom to provide comprehensive, preventative, and patient-centered care. Families in her community have experienced the convenience and rapid responsiveness of the DPC model, sometimes avoiding costly and time-consuming ER visits and walk-ins thanks to direct communication and same-day appointments.This episode also highlights how DPC serves as a solution to physician burnout, supporting practitioners to reconnect with their sense of purpose, maximize patient outcomes, and enjoy professional autonomy. Listeners considering DPC - from those facing moral injury in fee-for-service settings, to those interested in community-driven, flexible healthcare - will find practical advice, heartfelt encouragement, and proof that a better way in healthcare is not only possible, but thriving.Keywords: physician burnout, healthcare access, direct primary care, DPC, value-based care, physician autonomy, patient-centered care, rural healthcare, medical practice models, Lionheart Direct Primary Care.Learn about healthcare for your own family and about health shares today!
