She spent over a decade reporting from the floor of the New York Stock Exchange — but what Alison Kosik learned about money, power, and perception goes far beyond what made it on air.

In this eye-opening episode, Rachel sits down with longtime CNN business correspondent Alison Kosik to talk about the financial myths we still believe, what the media gets wrong about money, and why so many people feel left out of the conversation when it comes to wealth.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

    •    What it was really like behind the scenes at the NYSE

    •    How financial media shapes — and sometimes distorts — public understanding

    •    The emotional toll of reporting during financial crises like 2008 and COVID

    •    Why women are still underestimated in finance and how that’s changing

    •    Alison’s most surprising revelations from her time covering the markets

    •    What she believes everyone should know about money but rarely gets taught
