Begin With The End In Mind - Joseph Templin

“When looking at success in whichever capacities, begin with the end in mind, and by doing that you can focus on making the best possible choice.” Joseph Templin
Every day you make decisions that either moves you forward or sets you back financially. Your beliefs about money, yourself and the world will inform every aspect of how you deal with money, and therefore is important to fully understand these held convictions. This is according to Joseph Templin, who helps his clients to understand why they make choices that they do around money matters, and why it is important to consider the bigger picture.

I went to grad school for physics and my MBA, and I was working full time as a college intern with Northwestern Mutual.
After I graduated I maintained my student lifestyle because I knew that deferred compensation was the best model.
I never let my lifestyle grow as fast as my income which gave me a lot of flexibility long range.
One of the big differences among the financial classes in the United States is people who are truly rich buy tremendous value for things that can last for decades as opposed to the quick fix.
People don't realize that if you can save on one area, that allows you to have more output because you dedicate it to things that actually pay dividends.
One of the things is you can tell what class somebody is by their philosophy and attitude around money.
If you can trade time for money, that's work, and if you can change money for time, that's leisure.
Our understanding about money and our philosophies on money are carried forth and reflected in our decisions.
One of the questions that I ask my clients is to tell me about their earliest and or strongest memory of money from growing up, and how that has influenced you.
It is important to invest the time essentially on financial counseling to understand why you and your significant other make financial choices and come up with a unified family philosophy.
Having a unified philosophy is important and ensuring that it can pass on down to the next generation.
Commercial break
If you really understand why you want to do something, it makes the discussions around it a lot easier, because you're clear about what your value and concern is.
When you're looking at your financial philosophies, you want to make sure that your loved ones are inheriting the mindset around money that you desire.
When looking at success in whichever capacities, begin with the end in mind, and by doing that you can focus on making the best possible choice.

Mindful Money - Jonathan DeYoe

“When you think about your finances, stop predicting, start planning and stay mindful.” Jonathan DeYoe
Most people have free-floating anxiety about anything to do with money. However, embracing mindfulness in financial planning allows us to include personal experiences, emotions and thoughts when making financial decisions. This is according to Jonathan DeYoe, who notes that life can be less stressful when we stop trying to solve problems that have not happened yet, and focus on what presently have.
Jonathan DeYoe is a Lutheran Seminarian turned Buddhist academic turned financial advisor. He has been an investor for over 40 years and an advisor for almost 30. In 2021, he merged his wealth management practice into EP Wealth – a national fiduciary firm where he continues to work with his clients.
After losing his only sibling in 2021, he wanted to return to a vision that he and his brother shared. In 2006, they had cofounded a company, Worker’s Financial, to bring education, financial coaching, and tools to people who were either struggling to get started or recovering from some form of financial ruin.
Jonathan speaks and writes about personal finance, wealth & culture, and behavioral wealth for news outlets like businessinsider.com and MindBodyGreen.com. He is the author of the Amazon Bestseller Mindful Money: Simple Practices for Realizing Your Financial Goals and Increasing Your Happiness Dividend. He has been featured in the N.Y. Times and the Wall Street Journal and he speaks locally and nationally on the intersection of money and mindfulness.
Today, his company, Mindful Money, offers low-cost financial education, a DIY personal financial planning course, and group financial coaching that can enable people to put their money lives into the larger context of their total lives and build “True Wealth.”  Jonathan is passionate about spreading a goal-focused and planning-driven approach to money that helps people enjoy better financial outcomes AND live happier lives.
In today’s episode, Jonathan speaks about the concept of mindfulness in financial planning and how he helps his clients contextualize their plans.

I bring together non-judgmental awareness of the way things are, and knowledge about finance.
The happiness factors that determine well-being, are not unique to people with the money.
You can judge the choice of an expense, given the lack you see in other places, but you have to admit that you have no idea.
I have this background where I meditate a lot, and I really think about the meaning of life and what makes people happy.
I entered the financial world where I was an advisor and a broker on Wall Street and I realized that everyone was predicting things that are not predictable.
The concept of the application of mindfulness, the non-judgmental awareness of the present moment to finance sort of became natural.
I was scared and second guess myself but over time I became convinced and so it took me until I think 2019 to rename my firm Mindful Money.
The reality is, you can have better financial outcomes and happiness dividends if you do this the right way, which is separating it all out and focusing on the long term.  
People are not capable of planning for a future that they can't imagine, and so it is important to get people out of their current self and get them thinking about a lifetime.
Commercial break
Majority of people who come to me are looking for wisdom around the retirement plan.
The difference between us and most advisors is we tell clients right up front that because we can’t predict the future, we have to make decisions around different timeframes.
With regards to how or when mindfulness does come into play, we talk about ideas of mindfulness without naming mindfulness in the very beginning.
The value an advisor can provide is just how people can contextualize issues in a life that's complex and has lots of moving pieces.
When you think about your finances, stop predicting, start planning and stay mindful.

Next Level University - Alan Lazaros

“Aim high, keep it specific enough to give you direction, but open enough to make sure you're exploring and not pigeon holing yourself to where you will have regrets.” Alan Lazaros
In order to be more self-aware and get to maximize your potential, it is important to slow down and reflect on the substantial changes that happen to your life. This is according to Alan Lazaros, who notes that productivity and fulfillment are a byproduct of self-development, contribution to a larger cause, and living in the present.
Alan Lazaros is the Founder & Host of Next Level University, a Global Top 100 Self-Improvement podcast with more than 900 episodes reaching over half a million people in more than 100 countries. Alan believes in a heart-driven but NO BS approach to inspiring, motivating & educating others on what it really takes to get to the next level.
At age 2, Alan’s father passed away in a car accident. At age 26, getting into a nearly fatal car accident himself, he began to question everything, including who he was and the choices he was making. Now it's his mission to help others maximize their potential & design lives & businesses they love on their own terms.
In this episode, Alan talks about how people can achieve better life outcomes that are fulfilling to them and the people around them.

I was raised by two women, my mother and my older sister who was three years older than me.
My mom sat me down when I was seven years old she gave me the best lesson I've ever heard which was to aim high, and I'll have choices.
Fast forward, I got into my dream school and became an electrical and computer engineering graduate with distinction.
I went back for my MBA and then I did a bunch of job hopping and eventually landed a company called Cognex.
I got into an accident that left me mentally, emotionally and spiritually messed up and I started questioning everything about my life.
Now I've got this North Star that I wear around my neck which is my guide.
As I reflected on my life, I saw two stars I'd never seen before, Tony Robbins’ TED Talk and Bronnie Ware’s book called ‘The Top Five Regrets of the Dying.’
Now I have a podcast, Next Level University and we have reached out to 120 plus countries, coaching people all over the world.
Learning about these individuals, I go to learn that we don't shine as bright as we could, because we're afraid of what people will think about us.
We try to stay small due to the insecurities of others, and it doesn't help the world the way that we need to help the world.
People say life is about the journey which I agree, but one thing that is important is that the destination you choose in advance dictates the journey.
I think life is a dance between exploration and refocus where you go out and you explore and you double down on the things you do like, and you eliminate the things you don't,
Regret is the soul's recognition of misalignment with its highest calling.
Aim high, keep it specific enough to give you direction, but open enough to make sure you're exploring and not pigeon holing yourself to where you're will have regrets.
Commercial break
I always check in with my clients with a simple maximization triad which is a simple triangle with three sides.
Number one is maximizing one's own unique potential, number two is how one is maximizing one's own unique greatest level of contribution
Number three is about money and profitability and is how one is maximizing their own unique quality of life.
Money should not be number one, in my opinion but it shouldn't be number five, either.
Life improves when we improve and when we improve we get better.
If you are a wonderful, good intentioned human being, who truly wants to improve the quality of their life, what is best for you should be best for others.
The world needs more fulfilled human beings, because hurt people, hurt people.
Ignorance and apathy are the two root causes of all human suffering, and knowledge and care is the cure.

Project Management For Your Money - Simon Brady

“Start to take saving and investing particularly seriously, and as early as possible.” Simon Brady
We know that we need to invest in our financial future, but tackling it can be so daunting and downright overwhelming. It however doesn’t have to be that hard, especially for young people who still have the time and potential to accomplish their financial goals. Simon Brady helps people to plan their personal finances, and insists that the only person in charge of taking care of your financial future is yourself.
Simon Brady grew up in London but came to Wall Street in the late 1980s as a trader. He worked there for over 20 years in both currencies and equities before turning to personal financial planning and setting up his own fee-only firm, Anglia Advisors, which is a personal finance and investment consultant that specializes in working with younger individuals, couples and families looking to secure their financial futures. 
In today’s episode, Simon talks about his practice and why it is important that people start to take investment matters seriously.

I originally grew up in London and came over here in a trading capacity in the late 1980s.
I got qualified as a certified financial planner and set up my own firm, Anglia advisors.
My compensation method is completely different where I work per hour basis and with that model, I was able to work with younger people who have a lot going on and need a lot of hand-holding.
I love it when people come to me at an early stage because there's so much we can do if you give me 40 years of time horizon.
The transactional commission based financial advisors are not really incentivized to talk to you about that they can't monetize.
I get paid the same regardless of what we are talking about, so I can have a very wide range of conversation topics with people.
Commercial break
When someone reaches out to me, I always want to try and establish in that first discussion why they are reaching out.
I establish what kind of agenda we're going to put together, and it really is up to the client to put the agenda together.
The pandemic reminded quite a few people about their mortality which sort of reinforced that very unexpected things can happen.
There has been an increase in the general awareness that you can plan your life out in the way that you want to.
Some people that come to me do so because they've got a plan and they want me to come back and endorse what they're doing.
The delegators outsource everything about their finances to me, and my model permits me to work with all these people.
The best time to start saving and investing is during your first week at your first job, the second best time is now.
Start to take saving and investing particularly seriously, as early as possible.

Think Like A Banker - Mark Willis

“Applied knowledge is power, so take what you learn and do something about it.” Mark Willis
Financial literacy is important when it comes to our relationship with money. However, being financially literate is not enough to unlock generational financial success. As Mark Willis notes, applying the financial knowledge and skills effectively when making financial decisions is the key to growing wealth and achieving financial success.
Mark Willis is a man on a mission to help you think differently about your money, your economy and your future. After graduating with six figures of student loan debt and discovering a way to turn his debt into real wealth as he watched everybody lose their retirement savings and home equity in 2008, he knew that he needed to find a more predictable way to meet his financial objectives and those of his clients.
 Mark is a Certified Financial Planner™, a three time #1 Best Selling Author, the owner of Lake Growth Financial Services, a financial firm in Chicago, Illinois and co-host of the Not Your Average Financial Podcast™. Over the years, he has helped hundreds of his clients take back control of their financial future and build their businesses with proven, tax-efficient financial solutions unknown to most financial gurus. He has become known as “Not Your Average Financial Planner!”

The inflation conversation has quickly become a prevailing discussion that I have with my clients.
The mandate of the Federal Reserve has always been to keep inflation at about 2% to ensure that there is price stability and low unemployment.
They do that through a number of different tools, the most famous one being quantitative easing or money printing.
There are some strategies that you can use to help you get the wind of inflation at your back, rather than it being a headwind.
The wind is at your back if you've got strategies that actually do better in a higher inflation environment.
If we can help folks think like a bank, that helps them break free to a smart and stable financial future.
Our lives change when we start thinking categorically different and start to have a different conversation.
The lower your interest rate, the cheaper the money is to get access to, and the more stuff you can buy, and vice versa.
Commercial break
In the concept ‘Buy Borrow Die,’ the first step is to buy assets that go up in value.
The key here is you got to buy an asset that generally doesn't kick off any income because if you have no income, you pay no income tax.
The next step is to borrow against all those major inflated assets since loans are not considered income by the IRS.
The third and final step is to die, which means that when a billionaire passes away, their assets will get a step up in basis.
One of the challenges of buying stocks is that if the interest rate rises too high and there is too much inflation, the stock valuations go down.
Life insurance as a financial vehicle is a way to adopt the ‘Buy Borrow Die,’ strategy without the risk of going broke.
Applied knowledge is power, so take what you learn and do something about it.

My journey has been about finding my place and my purpose, and helping awaken people and get them aligned with who they are.
When I'm working with my clients, it's about teaching them what they love to do, and who they are on a soul level so that they can just have that money come to them.
Everyone over the last couple years has really had to think about things differently, and find new ways of reinventing themselves.
One of the things for me was finding ways of working less and making more.
The point is to figure out how to set and maintain the level of income that I want going forward, and that's usually a mindset ceiling.
When we get so stressed out about money, our body releases cortisol which makes it not work right.
One thing that I've noticed is that when I start to get stressed about money, I pay attention and I head it off before it gets full blown.
The biggest problem that I find when I'm working with people is that they recognize there's a problem, but don't really have any idea or solution of how to get out of it.
The worst thing that we do to ourselves, is compare ourselves to other people.
One thing that I learned and help my clients with is, it doesn't matter what someone else is doing, we all have a unique proposition and a way that we help.
One thing that sometimes people miss is not realizing who they are is their formula, and they start to complicate it to be more.
It's that authenticity of stepping into who you really are that is attractive to everyone else, and which creates the easiest path of success.
A lot of times, it's just giving my client the permission by laying it all out for them and telling them that they can walk into this.
Commercial break
The key is doing the things that I'm good at because there's a big clarity and understanding why you're doing it.
One thing I realized when I was in my law of attraction coaching program was to really go with the flow of life.
Acceptance, and finding the natural way that you're designed to operate is very key in getting rid of the struggle and getting into our own bliss in the search for pleasure.
Get help for whatever hurdle you are working through it, because nobody out there that is successful did it on their own.
Live your life in authenticity and understanding your why on doing it.

Lighting Designer To The Stars! - Alan Blacher

What makes a great television interview? Consider it a performance!
Behind every performance, there are thousands of tiny details that hold a show together, and scenic lighting is one of the key pillars when it comes to the power of visibility. Knowing how and when to put these pieces of aesthetics together, so that they can create the needed effect, is an art form in itself. This is according to Alan Blacher, who’s love for lighting was evident from a young age, and has over the years turned numerous media projects from mundane to vibrant.
Alan has spent decades as the go-to guru for lighting design on major talk shows and media performances. Alan’s love of lighting was kindled in high school, where stage productions led him eventually to Broadway, along the way learning lighting for theatre, dance, and eventually television. With his experience, he also found the opportunity to create innovation in lighting and use it to the advance of many of the elements of live television that we take for granted today.
Today Alan oversees a team of specialists who continue to provide excellence in lighting, even when the world of in-person studio taping has been hard-hit by the pandemic. He stays as motivated as ever to make sure the on-camera futures are bight.
In this snippet from the full-length interview, Alan talks about his diverse experiences as a lighting designer and the effects especially for performing arts and television.

Memphis Majic - Eddie Bailey

How do you showcase your expertise in a media interview?
When it comes to media interviews, there is no substitute for preparation. And as Eddie Bailey notes, getting your scripts in order is important. However it is important to that the participants do not robotically follow the scripts, but learn to just let the conversation to flow.
Eddie Bailey discovered his knack for storytelling during his formative years. Early on, Bailey relocated to Atlanta and found himself stepping into the next Southern music mecca - a development that would pique his interest in media. Seeking to build on this interest, Bailey entered the prestigious Howard University as a film studies major.
Upon graduation, Bailey made the next logical step and set his sights on opportunities to grow as a media maker and storyteller in New York City’s film and television community. Bailey soon became an in-demand production assistant with multiple networks effortlessly ascending the ranks. With his incomparable reputation in tow, it wasn’t long before Bailey was able to transition from production assistant to story producer. He excelled in his new role on various episodes of television series.
Following a confluence of events, including the 2007 writers’ strike and the 2008 recession, Bailey was inspired to construct his own lane by laying the foundation for his new production company: The Savoy Media Group. Ultimately, Bailey’s goal with The Savoy Media Group reaches far beyond just creating compelling stories. He is convinced that it’s his mission to imbue his passion with a deeper sense of purpose at such a critical time in history.
In this snippet from his full-length interview, Eddie talks about how to prepare for and conduct a media interview successfully.
