Description

In this essential behavioral finance episode, we dive into the psychological freedom of differentiating between the financial factors you can control (like savings rate and fees) and the ones you can't (like market volatility and interest rates). Learn how to identify and avoid the emotional biases, such as panic selling, that derail long-term success when headlines are screaming about the uncontrollable. We provide actionable, Zen-like strategies to help you tune out the noise, stick to your plan, and find confidence in focusing only on the levers you can actually pull.
