Description

Retirement is about more than finances — it’s about meaning and growth. Join us as we explore common “belief traps” that can hold you back, how to reframe your story, and expand what’s possible in the years ahead. 

In this episode, we discuss: 

  • How the echo chamber and certainty traps limit perspective and growth
  • Why the comfort trap keeps you stuck — and how to break free
  • The danger of the perfection and irrelevance traps in later life
  • A powerful exercise to reframe your time horizon and live with greater purpose

Listen in as Founder and CEO of Howard Bailey Financial, Casey Weade is joined by Les McDaniel to uncover common belief traps, how to reframe your story, and practical ways to expand what’s possible in the next chapter of life.
