- 288 - Inflation, Through Your Own Eyes: Why Context Matters
Have you noticed how people have wildly differing opinions on the severity and significance of inflation? If you take two similar people, one may say inflation is killing them, and the other may say inflation is being blown out of proportion. Why? No, it's not because one person is being irresponsible. In today's episode, host Travis Shelton uses an illustration to showcase why we have such vast opinions on the topic. In short, context matters.

13 min - 286 - Expensive vs Priceless: Re-Focusing Our Attention to the Irreplaceable
Have you ever noticed how we often covet, protect, and respect the expensive things in our lives, while the priceless (but not necessarily expensive) things get left in the dust? This is a common phenomenon. In today's episode, host Travis Shelton discusses this dynamic and invites listeners (and himself) to intentionally shift the focus.

12 min - 285: Challenging Cultural Narratives: Navigating Toxic Financial Half-Truths
Our culture is full of narratives that are misleading at best, and destructive at worst. In today's episode, host Travis Shelton shines a light on one of them: investing in the US stock market. We hope this provides a fuller context on this issue, but also highlights a broader need to cut through the cultural narratives of half-truths that often lead us down the path of poor decisions.

13 min - 283 - Once You See It: Making Sense of Money and Happiness
Money and happiness is a lot like the KFC logo. Once you see it, you can't unsee it (IYKYK). In today's episode, host Travis Shelton explores the often misunderstood dynamic between money and happiness, and what it means for our life. It's hard to see through the lens of our modern-day culture, but once we see it, we can't unsee it. This episode gets to the heart of the Meaning Over Money message.

19 min - 282 - The Numbers are a Tell: Why Results Matter, But Not In the Way We Believe
We all love to see positive results. A higher paycheck. More profit. A growing number of customers. The numbers matter. However, we think they matter for a different reason. In most cases, the numbers in and of themselves aren't the answer. They are the tell. They are an indicator we're doing the right things. Instead of dwelling on hitting the desired numbers, we should dwell on the positive behaviors that will ultimately result in the numbers.

20 min - 280 - Parenting Toward Work that Matters: Helping Our Kids Unlock a More Meaningful Life
Studies show that 70% of Americans dislike or hate their job. It's an epidemic. Worse, it's an epidemic we're unknowingly passing on to our kids. Host Travis Shelton recently had the opportunity to share some insight and encouragement on this topic with 1,000 eighth and ninth graders. In today's episode, we're speaking to parents. As parents ourselves, we believe our kids deserve better than to wake up each morning for the next 40+ years with dread or indifference. We believe they can (and should) pursue a meaningful and fulfilling life. And one massive piece of that is work that matters. Let's talk about it!

The answer(s) to that question may actually be a tell about who you are and what you really want in life. It's a question worth pondering!
