Lobo Tiggre remains firmly bullish on gold over the long term, but he warns that most investors will still get this bull market wrong by confusing the inevitable with the imminent. While patiently holding cash and waiting for better entry points, Lobo explains why patience may be the biggest edge in today's market, breaks down the Federal Reserve, inflation, the U.S. dollar, silver, gold stocks, and why disciplined speculation consistently outperforms emotion.

Willem Middelkoop believes the financial endgame has already begun, as record sovereign debt, relentless central bank gold buying, and rising geopolitical tensions all point toward the breakdown of the dollar-based monetary system. Willem argues these aren't isolated events, but the early stages of a historic monetary reset that could reshape the global economy for decades to come.
Willem explains why every reserve currency eventually loses its dominance, why gold is quietly returning to the center of the financial system, what a declining U.S. dollar could mean for investors, and how the next financial order may emerge. He also discusses the future of central banks, the shifting balance of global power, the risks facing financial markets, and much more.

Millions of people spend years in therapy, reading self-help books, meditating, and searching for answers. Yet when life applies pressure, they fall back into the same emotional patterns. Dylan Moscovitch and Mariana Mae believe the problem isn't a lack of awareness. It's that real transformation isn't measured by what you know. It's revealed by how you respond when everything feels uncertain.
For Dylan, that truth arrived when a 200-pound mirror shattered across his face and body just weeks before Olympic qualification. In an instant, the identity he had spent a lifetime building was gone. This conversation is about why healing doesn't always lead to change, how the nervous system quietly shapes the life you create, and why the biggest breakthroughs rarely happen when you're searching for answers. They happen when you're forced to become someone new.

We have never been more connected, yet millions of people feel more disconnected than ever from themselves, the people they love, and the lives they're trying to build. Dylan Moscovitch and Mariana Mae explore why we keep repeating the same relationship patterns, why achievement can never replace belonging, and why the relationship we have with ourselves shapes every relationship we have with life.
Recorded live at La Maison Ralia in Montreal, this conversation explores identity, self-love, belonging, conscious partnership, indigenous wisdom, sacred reciprocity (ayni), healing generational patterns, and what it truly means to live in right relationship with yourself, with others, with time, and with the world around you.

Peter Grandich says the financial collapse has already begun, and the pressures building beneath the surface are accelerating faster than most people realize. Drawing from 42 years in finance, Peter breaks down why rising debt, fragile retirement systems, widening wealth inequality, and AI-driven job displacement are setting the stage for a far more unstable future.
Peter also explains why debt is quietly destroying families, why younger generations may inherit one of the hardest financial environments in modern history, why preserving capital matters more than chasing returns, how faith rebuilt him after making and losing millions, and the billionaire story that proved money can't buy what matters most, and much more.

Grant Williams believes gold doesn't lead markets; it shows up when trust breaks, and when it does, it moves fast. After years of rising debt, constant intervention, and repeated crises, the system has become fragile. Grant explains why he doesn't view gold in terms of price but in terms of purchasing power, and why its real role only becomes clear under pressure.
By the time most people turn to gold, the move is already underway. This is about how risk builds quietly, how narratives keep people comfortable, and why the biggest shifts don't feel obvious until they've already started. The question isn't if trust breaks. It's what you're holding when it does.

Don Durrett believes gold could surge to $7,000, and he says the move may come a lot faster than people expect as US debt and interest payments spiral out of control and pressure builds across the financial system. He breaks down why confidence in the bond market could be starting to crack and how that could lead to a major shift into gold and silver.
Don also explains why he thinks traditional assets may struggle in this environment, why the system itself may not be fixable in its current form, how political dysfunction could impact markets, and what all of this means for investors going forward, and much more.

Chris Vermeulen believes markets could be heading for a sharp decline within the next 3–6 months, driven by a rising U.S. dollar, weakening participation, and shifting sentiment across equities, commodities, and global assets. He explains why this type of setup often leads to panic selling, frozen real estate markets, and why most investors are not prepared for that kind of move.
On the other side of the decline, Chris sees the potential for a generational buying opportunity, where disciplined investors can step in as assets reprice and new trends begin to form. He also discusses why he's currently sitting in cash, why he "loves the dollar," how capital is rotating into defensive positions, and why chasing short-term moves driven by algos and headlines continues to be one of the fastest ways to lose money, and much more.

Dylan Moscovitch says the accident that ended his Olympic path didn't just injure him; it shattered the identity he spent his entire life building. Just weeks before qualification, a 200-pound mirror fell on his face, knocking him unconscious and forcing him to confront the cost of years spent chasing perfection, validation, and approval. Dylan argues that elite sport didn't just shape him, it conditioned him to suppress emotion, build armour, and disconnect from himself.
He warns that when identity is built on performance, collapse isn't a possibility; it's inevitable. What followed wasn't a comeback but a reckoning. Years of buried pain, shame, and inner conflict surfaced, pulling him into a long and painful unravelling that ultimately became his awakening. Dylan shares how losing everything forced him to rebuild from within, and why real growth requires facing what most people avoid.

Rob Bruggeman says $10,000 gold is now "possible" as debt and deficits spiral out of control, trust in the dollar continues to erode, and rising geopolitical tensions push the global system closer to a breaking point. He warns that a potential oil shock could reignite inflation and force markets to rapidly reprice risk across equities, bonds, and monetary metals.
Rob breaks down why this shift may already be underway, why gold and silver could outperform in the next phase of the cycle, why many mining stocks still look deeply undervalued, where the next wave of disciplined M&A could emerge, and what investors may be missing as the macro environment begins to change, and much more.

Gwen Preston believes the dollar is not going back to what it once was and says "those days are done." She argues that gold's rise is not a speculative mania but a direct financial reaction to weakening trust in the dollar, fading demand for U.S. treasuries, and a world searching for a new reserve anchor as the old system starts to fracture.
Gwen also explains why central banks have been leading this move into gold, how Tether may now be emerging as a major force in the market, why the bond market is the real behemoth no one wants to confront, and why silver could become the more explosive story as supply falls further behind demand.

Mark Skousen believes the global economy has crossed a monetary threshold and entered what he calls an era of "permanent inflation." With gold surging past $5,000 and silver pushing toward triple digits, the repricing of hard assets may only be beginning as governments confront exploding debt, geopolitical conflict, and relentless money creation.
Skousen explains why the gold price breakout and the rising silver price could signal a major shift in the global monetary system. War, tariffs, and central bank liquidity are creating a powerful inflationary backdrop that could drive precious metals and mining stocks much higher. The conversation also explores the gold-silver ratio myth, the weakening dominance of the dollar, and why policymakers may have little choice but to keep printing money to prevent financial collapse, and what that could mean for gold, silver, and investors.

Michael Oliver believes silver is entering a phase the market has not seen in decades. After a violent correction that shook out investors, he believes silver has quietly reset and may now be preparing for a structural breakout similar to copper's historic move in 2005.
Using his Momentum Structural Analysis, Oliver explains that the silver gold spread has begun to shift, often the earliest signal that a powerful new trend is forming. In past cycles, when this structure flipped, silver did not move slowly. It repriced dramatically. Oliver's outlook is striking. If this breakout unfolds as his models suggest, silver could surge to $300 to $500 per ounce as soon as this summer, while the current gold bull market could ultimately extend to $8,000 or higher.
But the metals may only be part of the story. Oliver warns that financial stocks are quietly breaking down beneath the surface of the market, a divergence he compares to the early signals that appeared before the 2008 financial crisis. At the same time, mining stocks have just broken out of a massive 12-year base, creating what he calls "zero resistance overhead." If history rhymes, the next phase of this cycle may not unfold gradually. It could be violent.

Gold isn't getting richer. Currencies are getting weaker.
Ben Mumme explains why he owns gold and why many serious investors see it as one of the few assets capable of protecting purchasing power in a world drowning in sovereign debt and relentless money printing. Since the early 2000s, gold has surged dramatically, but the deeper story is monetary. As governments expand the money supply and debt levels spiral higher, the value of paper currencies quietly erodes.
Ben also explores why central banks continue accumulating gold, why many investors still view it as real money, and why it remains one of the few assets with no counterparty risk. Influential investors like Ray Dalio, Frank Giustra, Rick Rule, Ross Beaty, and Eric Sprott continue to emphasize gold's role as financial insurance in an uncertain monetary system. If the current trajectory of debt and monetary expansion continues, today's gold price may eventually look shockingly cheap in hindsight.

Andy Schectman believes physical silver is quietly being drained from COMEX vaults in what he sees as the early stages of a historic shift in the global monetary system. After decades of paper-driven price control, Schectman argues that sovereign entities and institutional capital are now demanding delivery of real metal and pulling supply out of the Western pricing mechanism, a move that could fundamentally reshape how silver is priced.
He explains why central banks have accumulated and repatriated gold at record levels, why gold appears to be moving back toward the foundation of money, and how silver's critical role in advanced technology, defense systems, and global infrastructure has created a supply imbalance that may no longer be containable. Schectman also discusses mounting sovereign debt, the erosion of dollar dominance, the rise of alternative settlement systems outside traditional financial rails, and why these forces could mark a turning point for gold, silver, and the global monetary landscape as the system enters a new phase and much more.

Christopher Aaron believes silver has just completed a 45-year consolidation and that the breakout above its 1980 highs marks the beginning of a major structural bull phase. After lagging behind other commodities for decades, Aaron argues silver is now entering its most explosive period, outlining a reasoned and calculated path toward $250 to $350 within the next several years.
He explains why recent pullbacks may be the healthiest part of a bull cycle, how a gold-to-silver ratio compression toward 38 could imply roughly $9,000 gold, and why his experience during the 2008 collapse forced him to abandon selective fundamentals and focus strictly on price action. Aaron also discusses potential retests of breakout levels, signals emerging from miners and the bond market, and what this shift could mean for investors positioning for the next leg higher, and much more.

Professor Steve Hanke argues the only way to restore stability is to abolish central banks and end discretionary monetary policy. Drawing on decades of crisis intervention, Hanke explains how currency boards stopped hyperinflation that reached 242% per month in Bulgaria, why Argentina collapsed after failing to eliminate central bank discretion, and why politicians will never impose fiscal discipline as long as they can finance deficits through money creation.
He says interventionism is now bipartisan across the West, sanctions have become economic weapons of war, and unstable currencies are eroding productivity and long-term prosperity. Hanke also outlines why more countries could move toward dollarization in the next crisis and why gold remains in a secular bull market with potential toward $7,000 per ounce, and much more.

Austrian economist Dr. Mark Thornton delivers a blunt assessment of the recent volatility in silver, arguing the violent snapback following a 165% year-over-year surge is not a correction, but evidence of rising stress inside the financial system. Thornton frames the move as a structural shift driven by distorted futures markets, high-frequency trading, and persistent policy intervention.
He explains why silver no longer trades like a traditional commodity, why fiat currencies now require constant support, and why periods of confidence loss produce sudden, disorderly price discovery. Rejecting conventional market explanations, Dr. Mark Thornton argues that gold and silver are reasserting their role as money, not trades, and that old assumptions about stability and control are rapidly becoming obsolete.

Matthew Piepenburg warns that silver above $100 is where markets stop behaving normally. The next move won't be orderly. As debt and deficits compound beyond control and fiat currency melts in real time, Piepenburg argues we're watching the end of a credit cycle collide with the end of a currency cycle.
He breaks down why "paper money is a beautiful ice cube that slowly melts," why inflation is the quiet weapon destroying the middle class, why central banks are hoarding gold at record levels while the public is told "nothing to worry about," and why silver's next move may be anything but orderly, and much more.

Michael Gentile warns that the global financial system quietly crossed a point of no return years ago and that COVID was simply the excuse to push it over the edge. Governments never stopped spending, central banks never stopped printing, and the result is now unavoidable as purchasing power collapses in plain sight. Gentile argues the middle class is being systematically squeezed while markets are held together by debt, denial, and distortion.
Gentile explains why gold surging from $1,100 to over $4,600 and silver pushing toward $90 is not a bubble but a warning signal most investors are ignoring. He draws unsettling parallels between today's AI mania and the dot-com collapse, warning that an entire generation has never lived through what happens when confidence breaks and liquidity disappears. This is not fear. This is math. And the system is running out of room to hide.

Rick Rule says the U.S. dollar and global fiat system are in their final phase. This isn't a normal correction. It's a quiet collapse where trust dies long before the headlines notice. Most investors are waiting for currencies to "stabilize." That's the fastest way to get trapped.
Capital is moving fast. Gold and silver are breaking out. They are no longer just protection; they are opportunity as real value replaces paper promises. Rule highlights deeply mispriced U.S. community banks and beaten-down Canadian oil equities. He also shares lessons from legendary investors like Eric Sprott and Peter Cundill on how wealth survives and multiplies when the system starts coming apart.

Michael Oliver warns that silver is entering a phase he describes as "not normal," where price discovery accelerates rapidly and unpredictably. After surging from $50 to $78, Oliver says the market is no longer behaving like a traditional commodity and that investors should stop expecting calm, orderly moves.
Using his proprietary Momentum Structural Analysis, Oliver explains why silver's dual role as money and industrial necessity has created a structural imbalance that can no longer be contained. With demand overwhelming supply for years, he outlines why silver could establish a $200 base far faster than expected, why prices approaching $500 would not shock him, and why silver miners could go berserk as reality snaps back.

Kim Barthel doesn't sugarcoat it: the obsession with comfort is quietly sabotaging your healing. Decades working with trauma, resilience, and the nervous system have shown her one brutal truth: real growth rarely feels safe.
Kim exposes why your nervous system remembers trauma long after your mind "forgets," why avoidance masquerades as self-care, and why chasing comfort keeps you trapped in the same destructive patterns. She tears apart the myth that healing should feel calm, controlled, or easy because if it feels safe, you're probably doing it wrong.
You'll learn:
- Why trauma and resilience are inseparable, and why most people never realize it
- How relationships, not techniques or affirmations, actually rewire the nervous system
- How technology and your environment quietly hijack emotional regulation
- Why protecting yourself from fear weakens your capacity to grow
- Why the self-help, therapy, and spiritual industry keep people stuck in false safety
If you've done the work, meditated, journaled, or gone to therapy, and you're still stuck. This episode will challenge everything you thought you knew about healing.

Clem Chambers delivers a blunt warning most investors aren't ready to hear: gold is no longer about safety. It's about war, power, and survival. As governments and central banks quietly stockpile metal and global tensions accelerate, Clem explains why gold is becoming strategic money again and why silver, the "fast horse," could deliver explosive upside as capital scrambles for hard assets.
Clem also breaks down why emotional investors get wiped out, why FOMO destroys returns, and why AI, energy demand, and tightening supply are setting up a historic repricing across commodities. He shares his outlook on copper, real estate, and equities, and explains why discipline, patience, and positioning will separate winners from casualties in the next financial regime.

Don Durrett warns the world is on the brink of a historic financial and societal collapse. Gold could easily hit $5,000, $8,000 is probable, and extreme scenarios point to $10,000–$15,000 as fiat collapses, stocks fail, and central banks quietly hoard gold at record speed.
Don reveals why buying monetary metals on the dips now could secure generational wealth, why gold and silver are about to explode, and how a coming spiritual awakening could completely upend humanity, consciousness, and the way we live by 2027.

David Morgan warns that silver's climb from $28 to $60 was only the beginning. The metal is now ready to detonate to $100, $200, or even $300 faster than anyone expects. Collapsing commercial-bar inventories, a paper market on the verge of breaking, and gold's quiet surge are creating a perfect storm that could leave the world unprepared.
David also reveals the forces behind this detonation: years of fiat manipulation, record central-bank gold buying, a looming silver default, and the rise of a blockchain-based monetary system that could rewrite the global financial order. If he's right, this could be the most dramatic monetary event of our lifetime.

"America's financial illusion is collapsing right before our eyes," warns Peter Grandich in one of his most urgent interviews yet. With $38 trillion in debt, exploding deficits, and markets hanging on the last fumes of a dying system, millions of Americans are on the brink of financial devastation. Seniors have doubled their stock exposure, half the population owns nothing, and the top 10% controls 86% of the wealth. "This is a house of cards built on debt and denial—and the fall will be brutal."
Grandich exposes a looming generational fracture—a coming "war among the ages" as younger Americans refuse to pay for the soaring costs of an aging nation. Fiat currencies are teetering on collapse, while gold and silver are positioned for historic revaluation. But the danger isn't just financial: America is facing a spiritual reckoning, with political chaos, moral decline, and collapsing trust shaking the nation to its core.

Chris Vermeulen delivers one of his most urgent warnings yet, stating that a "big and bad" financial reset is now dangerously close, with the stock market hanging by a thread and potentially collapsing within the next 1 to 3 months. Vermeulen explains how rising global fear is igniting record-breaking demand for gold and silver, setting the stage for a powerful move higher.
Vermeulen sees gold primed for a 30% surge and silver ready to rocket higher as investors rush to protect their wealth before the reset hits. Vermeulen's most alarming insight targets the AI-fueled stock market, which he calls a ticking time bomb, inflated far beyond fundamentals and vulnerable to a violent unwind. Vermeulen warns that once this bubble bursts, the ripple effects could trigger a decade-long financial crisis, wiping out unprepared investors and exposing millions who assumed the boom would never end.

Michael Oliver delivers his most explosive warning yet: silver is coiling for a monster breakout that could easily push past $100, and almost no one is prepared for it. His momentum signals, the same tools that have predicted major market shifts for decades, now point to a move so powerful that most investors won't believe it until it's already underway.
Oliver explains how years of manipulation have pushed silver far below its real value and why that pressure is finally reaching a breaking point. He also lays out why gold could surge into the mid-$8,000s, why crypto and the broader financial system are flashing early danger signs, and how a massive monetary shift is already taking shape behind the scenes.

Welcome to Building Generational Wealth—a podcast series for the everyday person. Whether you’re just starting your financial journey or rewriting your money story, this space is for you. Women and men. Millennials and Boomers. Gen X and Gen Z. Every race, background, and identity. Because financial literacy should be inclusive, accessible, and empowering for all.
We’re facing one of the most financially unstable times in modern history. Debt is soaring, inflation is biting, and wages aren’t keeping pace. Millennials hold just 4.6% of U.S. wealth. Gen Z is stepping into adulthood burdened by debt and locked out of homeownership. Meanwhile, $84 trillion is set to change hands in the largest wealth transfer ever. The question is: Will you be ready to receive, grow, and protect it—or be left behind? This is your moment to rise.
Through honest conversations with leading financial minds, we’ll show you how to build wealth patiently, intentionally, and wisely. It’s not about chasing trends—it’s about creating lasting security. Because if you don’t take care of your money, your money won’t take care of you.

Our sixth episode with Daniela Cambone and Michael Gentile, redefine what it truly means to build generational wealth. Neither born into privilege nor handed easy paths, their journeys are built on grit, relentless learning, and a clear sense of purpose.
Daniela Cambone, Global Media Director at ITM Trading, rose from zero financial experience to become one of the most trusted and influential voices in precious metals. Her sharp insights and candid interviews with top financial leaders bring clarity to complex markets.
Michael Gentile, a Montreal-based investor and father of five, discovered his passion for investing at just ten years old. Today, as co-founder of Bastion Asset Management, he manages over $550 million in assets, focusing on junior mining and small- to mid-cap equities across North America.
Together, they share powerful lessons: start before you’re ready—waiting for perfect conditions only delays your success. Invest in yourself fiercely—absorb knowledge, learn by doing, and let experience be your best teacher. Keep it simple, master the basics, and build habits that stand strong through market noise.
But their message goes beyond money. True wealth is multidimensional—rooted in health, family, values, and lasting impact. They challenge entitlement and stress passing down not just wealth, but work ethic, passion, and purpose.
Daniela and Michael also reveal the secret to confident investing: know your circle of competence, stay humble, and never stop asking questions. Above all, give back. Inspired by mentors who gave generously and quietly, they remind us that real greatness comes from lifting others as you rise.

In this episode, I sit down with seasoned investor and educator Peter Krauth to cut through the noise around money, investing, and financial literacy. We break down the barriers that make finance feel intimidating, showing how anyone (regardless of background or experience) can build lasting wealth with the right mindset, habits, and support.
Peter draws on decades of experience to offer clear, practical guidance on:
- Developing a patient, research-driven wealth mindset free from hype and shortcuts
- Mastering foundational financial habits, including why “pay yourself first” is essential
- Starting small, building confidence, and growing your financial knowledge step-by-step
- Grasping budgeting, risk, and asset classes without confusing jargon
- Avoiding common traps like impatience, speculation, and emotional decision-making

Welcome to Building Generational Wealth—a podcast series for the everyday person. Whether you’re just starting your financial journey or rewriting your money story, this space is for you. Women and men. Millennials and Boomers. Gen X and Gen Z. Every race, background, and identity. Because financial literacy should be inclusive, accessible, and empowering for all.

Gen Z is stepping into adulthood burdened by debt and locked out of homeownership. Meanwhile, $84 trillion is set to change hands in the largest wealth transfer ever. The question is: Will you be ready to receive, grow, and protect it—or be left behind? This is your moment to rise.
Through honest conversations with leading financial minds, we’ll show you how to build wealth patiently, intentionally, and wisely. It’s not about chasing trends—it’s about creating lasting security. Because if you don’t take care of your money, your money won’t take care of you.

Our fourth guest, Rick Rule, perfectly captures the spirit of this series on building generational wealth. Without inherited wealth or a formal financial background, Rick’s journey is a testament to grit, discipline, and relentless learning. Early in life, he faced adversity head-on, believing firmly that “how you overcome adversity is what matters.” This mindset shaped not only his approach to boxing but also his decades-long career in investing.
Rick’s success didn’t come from chasing flashy lifestyles or short-term gains. As he puts it, “I wasn’t interested in living rich. But I was interested in being rich.” By playing to his unique strengths and embracing a philosophy of honest optimism—summed up in his mentor Robert Friedland’s words, “The outlook is hopeless, but it’s not serious”—Rick forged a path defined by steady effort and resilience.
He emphasizes that true wealth begins with investing in yourself: your education, skills, and the community you build. “The sum of the community that you keep will determine your outcome,” Rick reminds us. His approach is rooted in timeless principles—saving, disciplined reinvestment, and living below your means—combined with an adaptive mindset that recognizes how tools like technology and social media create new opportunities.
Rick also delves into the critical role of trust and transparency in finance, distinguishing between fiduciaries and salespeople, and highlighting the power of mentorship and giving back. His warning about looming financial challenges, like the $100 trillion in unfunded U.S. social liabilities, underscores why it’s vital to focus on what you can control.
From humble beginnings to becoming a respected investor and mentor, Rick’s story shows that wealth is not just measured in dollars but in legacy, community, and purpose. His journey is a powerful reminder that true success comes from perseverance, continuous learning, and a mindset grounded in values—not just numbers.

In the third episode, we sit down with Daniela Cambone. She shares a hard truth many people are never taught: your salary alone will not make you rich.
Daniela, one of the most respected voices in financial journalism and the Global Media Director at ITM Trading, explains why relying on a paycheck—and saving money in the bank—is not enough to build lasting wealth.
With inflation eroding the value of your money and most people unaware of how currencies are devalued, the traditional approach to saving is broken. “We’re not taught about currency devaluation or that there’s a world beyond paper money. But there is—and that’s where wealth is built,” Daniela says.
This episode explores how anyone, regardless of background or financial experience, can begin to build wealth by making simple, intentional choices—like cutting unnecessary spending, asking better questions, and putting money to work in assets such as precious metals, stocks, or other long-term vehicles.
Daniela reminds us that building wealth is not about luck or hype—it’s about clarity, discipline, and curiosity. It starts with small steps, asking questions without fear, and surrounding yourself with people and information that challenge the status quo.
“Just start asking the questions. There are no stupid questions,” she encourages. We also talk about the deeper meaning of wealth: not just numbers in a bank account, but the values you live by, the legacy you leave, and the mindset you cultivate.
Daniela’s story—and her call for better financial education—is both practical and empowering. If you’re ready to stop relying only on your paycheck and start building wealth that lasts, this episode will give you the perspective and tools to take real control of your financial future—with confidence and purpose.

In the second episode, we sit down with Michael Gentile, a seasoned investor and passionate advocate for financial literacy. Together, we explore the fundamentals of building generational wealth—and the mindset required to sustain it.
Michael’s journey began with a spark: a grade school teacher who introduced him to the world of investing. That early influence, combined with timeless wisdom from icons like Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger, ignited a lifelong commitment to financial education and independence.
We dive into why financial literacy is so often missing from traditional education, and how self-education becomes a vital bridge for anyone seeking control over their financial future. Michael reminds us that true wealth isn’t built on hype or shortcuts.
Instead, it comes from disciplined, consistent habits—like saving regularly, investing patiently, and allowing compound growth to quietly work over time. “It’s not about getting rich quick — it’s about building habits that last a lifetime.”
This conversation goes beyond personal finance. Michael challenges us to think bigger—about how financial literacy shapes not only individual lives, but also society and public policy. In an increasingly uncertain world, understanding money is no longer a luxury—it’s a necessity.
Whether you’re just starting your journey or looking to strengthen your financial foundation, this episode offers practical, empowering insights to help you invest in yourself, take control of your future, and build lasting wealth with purpose and intention.

Our first guest, Peter Grandich, embodies the spirit of this series. His unlikely journey began with no formal education and managing a warehouse, but a small investment sparked a passion for the markets. After losing everything to the notorious penny stock brokers of the 1980s, Peter didn’t give up. He started an investment club that caught the eye of a brokerage owner. Despite doubts from loved ones, Peter became a stockbroker in an era when the business was little more than a desk, pad, and pen. His story is proof that grit, perseverance, and a hunger to learn can turn setbacks into lasting success. Peter also opens up about the often-overlooked struggles behind the financial world’s glamour, revealing the toll it took on his mental health: “In 2022… I actually lost a will to live. And it’s hard to imagine why, but that’s what it came to.” He reminds us that wealth isn’t just about money but about values and mindset: “Money is not the root of all evil — the love of money is.” From founding one of the first national investor relations firms to becoming known as the “Wall Street Whiz Kid,” Peter ultimately left Wall Street at his peak to pursue a life grounded in faith, humility, and purpose. His story shows that true wealth is about more than dollars—it’s about legacy, resilience, and meaning.

And hopefully, how to bring out the best."
Alison’s success in understanding men led her to study women’s behaviour, discovering key connections between the two. She explains the difference between loving feelings and being "in love," while emphasizing the crucial role of self-love in building healthy relationships.

Dr. Nomi Prins is a renowned economist, best-selling author, geopolitical financial expert and financial historian. As a Wall Street insider and outspoken advocate for economic reform, Nomi Prins is a leading authority on how the widespread impact of financial systems continues to affect our daily lives. She has spent decades analyzing and investigating economic and financial events at the ground level and meeting with those that shape the world’s geo-political-economic framework. She continues to break stories by conducting independent research, writing best-selling books, and traversing the globe to share her knowledge and demystify the world of money.
Before becoming a renowned best-selling author and public speaker, Nomi reached the upper echelons of the financial world where she worked as a managing director at Goldman Sachs, ran the international analytics group as a senior managing director at Bear Stearns in London, was a strategist at Lehman Brothers and an analyst at the Chase Manhattan Bank. During her time on Wall Street, she grew increasingly aware of and discouraged by the unethical practices that permeated the banking industry. Eventually, she decided enough was enough and became an author with the goal of shedding light on the ways that financial systems are manipulated to serve the interests of an elite few at the expense of everyone else.
Nomi’s latest book is Permanent Distortion: How Financial Markets Abandoned the Real Economy Forever. Leveraging her practical expertise and academic knowledge, she coined the concept of Permanent Distortion as a way to educate readers on the gap between the financial markets and the real economy, and what it means for everyone’s future. Over the course of 2023 and beyond, she will be speaking at conferences around the world on this topic, as well as providing actionable ways to deal with it through media appearances, articles, and newsletters.

He also explains the barbell strategy and shares a time when this strategy resulted in outsized returns in the natural resource sector, highlighting the specific factors that contributed to that success.
The conversation also covers the lessons Rick has learned from investing in natural resource assets that have persisted over time, and how he evaluates the potential for future persistence when considering new investments. Rick shares his strategies for expanding his circle of competence as an investor, as well as his thoughts on aligning incentives with the management teams and insiders of the companies he invests in.

Grant Williams, much to his dismay, has logged over 35 years in finance. During that time, he’s lived and worked in seven major financial centres from London to Sydney, building the kind of network that many others can only dream about.
He began his career in the Japanese equity market in the mid-1980s before a three-year posting to Tokyo ensured he had a ringside seat as the twin bubbles in equities and real estate burst simultaneously and spectacularly at the end of 1989. After a short stint back in London, Grant relocated once again, this time to New York, where he spent 7 years. Subsequent postings have taken him to Hong Kong, Sydney, Singapore, and the Cayman Islands.
Currently, he is a senior advisor to Matterhorn Asset Management AG in Switzerland, and a portfolio and strategy advisor to Vulpes Investment Management in Singapore.
Back in 2014, Grant’s ambition to bring the most intelligent, engaging, and original people in finance to a wider audience led him to co-found Real Vision, an on-demand internet-based financial media platform.
Grant’s twin Real Vision interview series, In Conversation With… and On The Road raised the bar for financial content – engaging and educating viewers in equal measure and helping them learn the secrets behind a group of extraordinary investors’ success.
Long before Real Vision, however, Grant was guiding people around the fringes of finance with his regular newsletter, Things That Make You Go Hmmm…, a publication which, from humble beginnings as a daily note to a few friends and colleagues, has grown into one of the most widely-read financial publications in the world.

When the new year comes around the corner, we are more inclined to ask ourselves and others about our new year resolutions, instead of questioning “what lessons did we learn this year?” In other words, we prospect before even introspecting.
Pragmatic prospection is the process through which one thinks about the future by imagining what one wants to happen, while also considering the obstacles, so as to map out and guide the actions that would bring about desirable outcomes.
The problem is, however, that when we prospect before first introspecting—when we plan for what’s ahead before reflecting on what has already passed—we’re doing ourselves enormous disfavor by not allowing ourselves to process our emotions and thoughts.
Introspection is a process that involves looking inward to examine one's own thoughts and emotions. Also known as experimental self-observation, the term was used to describe a research technique that was first developed by psychologist Wilhelm Wundt, which involved training people to carefully and objectively analyze the content of their own thoughts.
That’s why, the best thing you can do for yourself around this time of the year is to create a comfortable space to sit in, put on some relaxing music, prepare yourself a hot beverage, let go of all expectations, and journal through some introspective and prospective questions.
The idea is simple: Prepare and plan for the year ahead by first working through and assessing the one that just passed. By reflecting on the year, you surface your successes, sorrows, and any behavioral and thought patterns that hold you back. By planning for the year ahead, you step into it with full confidence, along with the knowledge that you’re much more intentional about your life and in control of it.

In this episode, Ben explains the science behind value-based goal setting. What if we based our new year’s resolutions not only on what we want but on why we want it? What if we let go of our perception of societal expectations and made our New Year’s resolutions based on what really makes us tick - our values?
Research suggests that doing so will not only make our resolutions more successful, it’ll boost our health and well-being. Science has something interesting to say about values and successful goal-setting.
Value-based goals are not only more successful than those created to meet extrinsic societal expectations, but they’re also healthier. We attach meaning and significance to pursuing value-based goals, which give our lives a sense of purpose.
Increasing the feeling of purpose in your life through activities like value-based goal-setting can increase your resilience to stress, promote healthy behaviours, and improve mood and overall well-being. In other words, linking a resolution to a value connects it with purpose, makes it more likely to change the way your brain is wired and will have subsequent sustainable and consistent effects on your behaviour.
Two steps for creating value-based goals:
- Catalogue your values
- Link your values to your goals
Value-based goal setting infuses your day-to-day activities and behaviour with your “why” or the things that make you tick. Positive health benefits aside, nothing is more motivating and empowering than fuelling your goals with your “why.”
When you find your “why”, embrace it. Live it. Be it.

In this episode, Ben explains how to make your fitness routine a sustainable habit. One of the biggest barriers to starting or maintaining a fitness routine has to do with fitness resistance; the reluctance to welcome fitness into our lives in the form of a sustainable fitness routine.
It’s human nature to simply revert to the comfort of our existing routines. This means making fitness a sustainable habit requires a bit of conscious effort and some willingness.
The first thing to note is that if you’re going to start an exercise habit, an incremental approach works better than going big right out of the gate.
One or two workouts that leave you feeling exhausted and sore aren’t enough to achieve your goal, and they might just discourage you from getting into a fitness routine. Instead, to fall in love with fitness you will need to create a habit loop.
Any habit is essentially a feedback loop of four phases: cue (make it obvious), craving (make it attractive), response (make it easy), and reward (make it satisfying).
The goal is to train your brain to crave the reward and therefore, the new fitness routine. When you stick with this routine, over time you will create great habits and sustainable results.
When it comes to building a long-term fitness habit, there are many ways to increase your chances of success. Ben talks about nine ways that you can create a fitness routine that you will love to do:
- Set a realistic starting point
- Build your workouts into other routines
- Understand your why
- Create SMART goals
- Set short-term tasks
- Keep a workout journal
- Expect setbacks
- Keep yourself accountable
- Find a workout you love

George Couros is an Innovative Teaching, Learning, and Leadership Consultant and speaker and the author of “The Innovator’s Mindset” and “Innovate Inside the Box”. In 2013, George gave a TEDx talk about Innovative Teaching and Learning.
George has worked at all school levels, from K-12 as a teacher, technology facilitator, and school and district administrator, and is currently an Adjunct Instructor with the Graduate School of Education at the University of Pennsylvania.
George believes in creating a collaborative environment with all stakeholders to help meet the best needs of all children. George is a father of two children and is driven to ensure all students have an amazing experience in their K-12 schooling.
By being curious, collaborative, and open to new learning, George thinks we can truly inspire our students to not only be prepared for the real world but ensure that they make the world better than it is now.
__
In this podcast episode, George talks about what inspired him to become a teaching, learning, and leadership consultant which lead to the outcome of a best-selling author. George then gives a better understanding of what an innovator’s mindset is and isn’t. He then provides one characteristic of an innovator’s mindset and shares an example of an innovative hero.
As children are naturally curious, George explains how we can respond to a child’s natural curiosity and help empower them to wonder, explore and become forward-thinking leaders. As the traditional system of education requires students to hold their questions and compliantly stick to the scheduled curriculum, George explains how we can do a better job at fostering innovation, encouraging critical thinking, and inspiring creativity.
George believes that innovation first starts with mindset and not skillset. He explains how someone can develop a growth mindset to inspire the ability, motivation, and attitude to unleash hidden talents. Also, George believes in the importance of asking quality-based questions. He shares some writing prompts or critical questions that we can ask ourselves so we can become more innovative. Lastly, George provides his definition of greatness and what it means to him.

He then shares some inspiring stories of some world-class performers, discussing how they make the shift from good to great.

In this episode, Ben explains that real wealth is an abundance of what is truly valuable. Wealth is a state of mind, not just your account balance. Societal pressures can have you easily fall into thinking money and status defines wealth but it goes beyond that.
Ben discusses that wealth is about having the time and health to enjoy the significant net worth you’ve built with the people you love. It is important not to live a life where you are rich in money but poor in other things that matter more.
Living your greatest life requires years of learning, practicing, and building four different types of wealth:
- Financial Wealth (Money)
Financial wealth measures how much money or assets someone has accumulated. It encompasses the ability to be financially free.
- Social Wealth (Status)
Social wealth comes down to how you interact with the world. This is determined by your relationships with other people, such as family, friends, and community.
- Time Wealth (Freedom)
Time wealth is the freedom to choose how and where you spend your days. Most people are too busy trying to achieve financial wealth that they ignore time wealth.
- Physical Wealth (Health)
Physical wealth is the glue that holds all the other types of wealth and our life together. Physical wealth is more than just physical, it is mental health. Being able to feel happy, and invigorated each day.
Ben then explains that we all have the ability to achieve all four types of wealth within our lives and only when we do get to this point can we begin to feel the wealth of fulfillment. This occurs when all four types of wealth are at play at the same time and in the right balance. This is the place where we should all strive to be.
Each of these types of wealth requires years of dedication, practice, humility, learning, and understanding. It should be viewed as a lifelong process that doesn’t end because there is no final destination.

87 Ben Mumme: The Anatomy of A Champion Mindset
Ben Mumme is the founder, curator, and podcast host of the Living Your Greatness Podcast. The purpose of the podcast is to inspire millions of people across the world to achieve greatness and enhance their overall personal well-being.
Living Your Greatness is becoming the go-to resource that CEOs, elite athletes, professional coaches, and entrepreneurs rely on to upgrade themselves. The podcast helps you master the best of what other people have already figured out.
__
In this episode, Ben talks about the anatomy of a champion mindset. To become a true champion, we must think like a true champion. They really know that the best way to forecast the future is to create it. Also, a true champion has a clear vision, takes small steps forward, reflects on the learning experiences, and builds that learning into betterment.
Ben then explains that sports can teach us a lot about a champion mindset. Many natural athletes don’t make it, while other athletes with deficiencies do. For instance, Pete Gray, with only one arm, made it to the major leagues; successful golfer Ben Hogan was an uncoordinated child, and the runner Glenn Cunningham’s legs were badly burned.
The many obvious examples of failed naturals and successful, though flawed, athletes should have debunked the myth of talent, but it hasn’t.
Ben speaks about 3 inspiring stories of athletes (Michael Jordan, Wilma Rudolph, Jackie Joyner-Kersee) who successfully demonstrated a champion mindset.
Whether it is sports or other areas of life, there are 10 character traits that are significantly valuable when deciding to foster a champion mindset:
- Persistence
- Fearlessness
- Think Before You Speak
- Sincerity
- Positive Attitude
- Integrity
- Helpfulness
- Ambition
- Responsibility
- Compassion

In this episode, Ben talks about creativity and how it can have the ability to make new things exist; generating ideas, alternatives, or possibilities that may be useful in solving problems, communicating with others, and even entertaining ourselves.
Creativity can be thought of as the ability to perceive the world in novel ways, unearth hidden patterns, make connections between seemingly unrelated phenomena, and generate solutions. It includes a creative process of making new connections between old ideas or recognizing relationships between concepts.
Thinking creatively doesn’t mean you have to start with nothing and make something. Instead, you take building blocks that you already have and construct them in an original way.
Ben then talks about the creative process and shares the five steps to produce remarkable ideas:
1 - Gather new material
2 - Thoroughly work over the materials in your mind
3 - Step away from the problem
4 - Let your idea return to you
5 - Shape and develop your idea based on feedback
Ben then explains that creativity matters. Developing creative sensibilities and habits enhances the quality of life for people. Opportunities for people to be creative during the years spent in school ultimately contribute to lives that are joyful, productive, meaningful, and abundant.
Creativity matters because of the intrinsic value of creative acts. It is also because creative pursuits can enhance learning in other subject areas and support productive habits of lifelong learning.
To set yourself apart in the world, nourish your creative side and become a creative genius, Ben gives six tips:
1 - Keep a notebook handy to capture your ideas
2 - Ask better questions to get betters answers
3 - Be a voracious reader
4 - Seek out new experiences
5 - Become a whole-brain thinker
6 - Set aside time for genius hour

In this episode, Ben talks about curiosity and how it is the hunger of the human mind. It is such a basic component of our natures that we are nearly oblivious to its pervasiveness in our lives.
Curiosity is thought of as the noblest of human drives. It is an innately human quality that has driven us to explore, ask questions, investigate, wonder why and search for a deeper understanding.
We see curiosity most clearly in how it manifests itself in geniuses. Intellectual giants such as Thomas Edison, Leonardo da Vinci, Albert Einstein, and Richard Feynman are all curious characters.
In a very fundamental way, curiosity is the driver of all self-directed learning. It is our desire to find out more, unlock new knowledge and answer our questions that compel us to learn.
Ben shares 8 reasons why you should increase your intellectual curiosity:
1 - Curiosity makes your mind active instead of passive.
2 - Curiosity boosts your probability of achievement.
3 - Curiosity makes your mind observant of new ideas.
4 - Curiosity can expand your empathy.
5 - Curiosity opens up new worlds and possibilities.
6 - Curiosity helps strengthen relationships.
7 - Curiosity is essential for your happiness.
8 - Curiosity brings excitement into your life.

In this episode, Ben talks about mental models and how to become a better thinker. A mental model is the specific thought process you use to examine a problem. There are many types of known mental models, and each one takes a unique view of a foreign concept in order to reduce its complexity. In short, it is the mind’s way of making sense of something.
As James Clear explains: “Each mental model offers a different framework that you can use to look at life…If you develop a bigger toolbox of mental models, you’ll improve your ability to solve problems because you’ll have more options for getting to the right answer. This is one of the primary ways that truly brilliant people separate themselves from the masses of smart individuals out there.”
There are tens of thousands of mental models, and every discipline has its own set that you can learn through coursework, mentorship, or first-hand experience. Ben shares 10 mental models that you can add to your thinking toolbox.
1 — Circle of Competence
2 — Divergent vs. Convergent Thinking
3 — Historical Wisdom
4 — Inversion
5 — Map Territory Relation
6 — Middle Ground Fallacy
7 — Paradigm Shift
8 — Systemics
9 — The 5 Whys
10 — Weasel Words
Being shown a new mental model isn’t enough. To get real value out of them, you need to understand them deeply. You need to see them in many contexts and get a feel for how they work.
But, if you hear an abstraction come up again and again, and you don’t understand it well, that’s a good sign there’s a hidden mental model waiting to be unlocked.

In this episode, Ben talks about how mental fitness is just as important as physical fitness. You can have a healthy, flexible, and lean body but can lack a healthy and flexible mind. For this reason, an emerging trend is gaining traction called mental fitness.
Mental fitness is defined as a state of well-being and having a positive sense of how we feel, think, and act. There are three ways to go; keeping up with stress and anxiety, becoming dull and unable to find interest in anything, or maintaining your mind sharp and active for as long as possible.
Just as there are components to physical fitness, there are components to mental fitness. These are known as the four pillars of mental fitness.
The benefits of developing strong mental fitness:
-
Being present
-
The ability to respond, not react
-
Improved cognitive function
-
Increased positive emotions of optimism
-
More confidence
-
Ability to develop positive habits in all areas of life
-
Improved sleep
One of modern neuroscience’s most exciting findings is that our brains are neuroplastic, meaning that they can change. The way that we think and behave can strengthen or weaken specific neural pathways. This means that we can influence the structure and functioning of our brains to maximize our mental well-being.

In this episode, Ben talks about 12 things that you will never regret.
The older we grow, the more peaceful and grateful we become. Life humbles us gradually as we age. We realize how much nonsense we have wasted time on.
In life, there will always be ups and downs, but ultimately, at the end of the day, that’s what makes each of us who we are. It is important to accept both the good and the bad that fall on your plate with grace. Most things in life happen for you, not to you.
It is important to be mindful of your outlook on life. Every day you can either regret or rejoice; it’s your decision. When you choose to have a growth mindset, life opens doors to amazing experiences you will always remember.
Here are 12 things you will never regret:
- Working hard on something you love
- The way you feel at the end of highly productive days
- Walking comfortably in your own shoes
- Being courageous enough to grow and evolve
- Seeing a genuine smile you helped create
- Moments of mindful presence
- Aligning what you do with who you are
- Relationships that make you a better person
- The euphoria of first-time experiences
- The nimble feeling of being a beginner
- When your patience finally pays off
- When you have a great reason to be impressed with yourself

Ben Mumme is the founder, curator, and podcast host of the Living Your Greatness Podcast. The purpose of the podcast is to inspire millions of people across the world to achieve greatness and enhance their overall personal well-being.
Living Your Greatness is becoming the go-to resource that CEOs, elite athletes, professional coaches, and entrepreneurs rely on to upgrade themselves. The podcast helps you master the best of what other people have already figured out.
In this episode, Ben explains that greatness is a moment-to-moment choice. You can’t control what happens around you, but you can control your perspective and practice patience, forgiveness, courage, and strength — to choose greatness in every moment.
Realizing your dreams and goals does ultimately require a long-term vision, but that can often be discouraging when you reflect on just how much we need to accomplish to reach our goal. However, by shifting your mindset to this moment-to-moment approach, you can simplify the process and utilize a more dependable path.
Here’s a practical approach that combines several best practices for maximizing productivity and performance:
- Find greatness in each moment: Don’t worry about maximizing your performance all day long, just pick one or two windows of about an hour or two where you seek to maximize your performance and then grow from there.
- Track your progress and performance: Track your performance each week and compare it to the previous week. How did you do? This ensures you’re making progress each week.
- Seek to go to bed each day thinking “I’ve done my best”: Hold firm to your resolution to be at your best during those short windows of time. Find greatness in those moments and don’t let yourself go to sleep at night without knowing you did your best.
By using this process to maximize the effectiveness of this moment-to-moment mindset, you’ll simplify the path to realizing your dreams. It won’t be any easier, but you won’t face disorientation and discouragement when looking at the road ahead.
Remember, you are stronger, smarter, and more resilient than you think. You are capable of achieving more than you believe. You are meant for greatness like anyone else who has already achieved it.

Ben Mumme is the founder, curator, and podcast host of the Living Your Greatness Podcast. The purpose of the podcast is to inspire millions of people across the world to achieve greatness and enhance their overall personal well-being.
Living Your Greatness is becoming the go-to resource that CEOs, elite athletes, professional coaches, and entrepreneurs rely on to upgrade themselves. The podcast helps you master the best of what other people have already figured out.
In this episode, Ben explains that it is our mindset that affects how we see the world. If it is distorted, so will the way you see yourself and others. Our beliefs and thoughts shape the way we behave, even if we don’t realize it. Developing the right mindset is crucial to succeeding in life.
Ben talks about the 8 mindset shifts that help someone live a great life:
- Time is precious
- Everything starts in the mind
- Be grateful
- Live in the present
- Happiness is a phase
- Remember the word why
- Make failure a positive
- Apply what you learn.
If you are ready to live a better life, then it’s time to shift your thinking.
You decide who you want to become. You decide how you get there. Create the vision you have for yourself and your dream life and go after it. Remove all the barriers in your way, especially those in your mind.
Remember, in order to change your story, you must consistently tell yourself a new story. In order to change, you must be willing to change. In order to shift, you must have an open mind and a desire to grow.

Ben Mumme is the founder, curator, and podcast host of the Living Your Greatness Podcast. The purpose of the podcast is to inspire millions of people across the world to achieve greatness and enhance their overall personal well-being. Living Your Greatness is becoming the go-to resource that CEOs, elite athletes, professional coaches, and entrepreneurs rely on to upgrade themselves. The podcast helps you master the best of what other people have already figured out.
In this episode, Ben talks about the art of becoming an expert and how to achieve high-level performance at almost anything. It is not easy to become an expert or master performer at something. Ben explains that it takes at least 10,000 hours of practice. This is a common rule of thumb, popularized by best-selling author, Malcolm Gladwell. For example, the Beatles put in 10,000 hours of practice playing all-night concerts in Hamburg in the early 1960s before their music got popular. Another example was Bill Gates who put in 10,000 hours of programming work before founding Microsoft.
This was why Gladwell strongly believed that 10,000 hours was the magic number of greatness. However, it is important to understand that the focus should not be on quantity training. It needs also to be quality training. You cannot become an expert without either of these ingredients. Expert performance is the end result of individuals’ consistent efforts to improve performance while negotiating motivational and external constraints. Ben discusses that deliberate practice refers to a special type of practice that is purposeful and systematic. While regular practice might include mindless repetitions, deliberate practice requires focused attention and is conducted with the specific goal of improving performance.
4 Ways To Use Deliberate Practice:
- Break it down
- Create a schedule
- Practice with focus
- Get a coach
Whatever it is you want to master and improve your skills at, when you use the power of deliberate practice, you can quickly become better than the average and achieve high-level performance.

Peter W. Hart is a self-taught, Montreal artist. He fell in love with painting at the age of 39 by chance while flipping through a book that included a reproduction of Degas’ “Dancers”. This painting was a revelation to him and awakened a sudden and intense passion for art - especially for the works of the "Impressionists".
Inspired by the paintings of iconic artists like Monet, Renoir, Manet, Courbet, Pissarro, and Van Gogh, Peter began painting and travelling the world to admire the original masterpieces. Painting started as a hobby in 1989 to relieve the stress of running one of the world’s leading employee recognition companies. After the successful sale of the company in 2019, painting has now become Peter’s full-time vocation.
In his paintings, Hart crystallizes his moods, transposing his emotions onto canvas, wood, and other materials. Imbued with fiery energy, Peter's works never leave the viewer unmoved. Vivid and expressive, his pieces are inspired by figurative paintings from another era but are eminently contemporary. His colour palette, composed mainly of primary colours, is radiant. Each stroke is lively and assertive - the textures rich, and the movement compelling. Today, Peter finds joy in harnessing the spontaneity of acrylic and the three-dimensional density of mixed media using everyday items such as noodles, rice, and beads.
Peter's works are an “ode to life.” They are defined in different collections; sometimes impactful like his close-ups of tulips and sunflowers; sometimes sunny and more languid such as his landscapes with fields and bodies of water; and sometimes purely abstract compositions with bold strokes and convoluted spirals. Peter often favours large or atypical canvases — in various shapes and dimensions, and often diptychs — but what’s striking is that each of his paintings, even the smallest, has a strong and flamboyant presence that seems to extend beyond their frame, generously occupying a space of their own.
A prolific artist, Peter permanently exhibits his work at his self-titled gallery located in the heart of Old Montreal. This is where he stays in touch with more than 1,200 collectors from over 30 different countries. He also participates in group exhibitions and finds immense pleasure in holding workshops with various charities, specifically, the homeless and kids who are traumatized or intellectually handicapped.
In this episode, Peter talks about his formative years growing up and what inspired him to become a creative artist. Peter is also a former water polo player on the Canadian Men’s National Team. He played with some of the best water polo players that ever played for Canada. Many of his former teammates have been recognized and have made it into the Canadian Water Polo Hall of Fame. Peter talks about the brotherhood he and his teammates fostered. He believes this is one of the reasons his water polo generation was so great!
Afterwards, Peter talks about his entrepreneurial spirit. He was the CEO and President of Rideau, Inc. He worked with the company for 50 years. Peter discusses how he helped build a better world for people, businesses and communities by focusing on the power of recognition. He also explains how anyone can learn how to foster creativity, innovation and an entrepreneurial mindset. Peter then talks about what separates a good artist from a great artist. Lastly, he provides his definition of greatness and what it means to him.

Ben Mumme is the founder, curator, and podcast host of the Living Your Greatness Podcast. The purpose of the podcast is to inspire millions of people across the world to achieve greatness and enhance their overall personal well-being.
Living Your Greatness is becoming the go-to resource that CEOs, elite athletes, professional coaches, and entrepreneurs rely on to upgrade themselves. The podcast helps you master the best of what other people have already figured out.
In this episode, Ben talks about how you can discover your Ikigai. The word, Ikigai is one thought to combine the Japanese words ikiru, meaning “to live”, and kai, meaning “the sensation of what hopes for”. Together these definitions create “a reason to live” or having a life purpose. Ben explains that we all strive for satisfaction and purpose in our lives. Your ikigai is your reason for jumping out of bed in the morning, what motivates you to revel in and appreciate life every day.
According to Japanese culture, Ben explains that everyone has ikigai. Detecting our strengths is not always easy. There are four questions that can help us find our path. To find your Ikigai, you must ask yourself:
- What do I love? (passion)
- What am I good at? (vocation)
- What can I be paid for? (profession)
- What does the world need? (mission)
Key learnings and takeaways:
- What the world needs, and what people will pay for are the same
- The law of association guarantees you a spot in the division of labour
- What do you love and what you prefer
Lastly, Ben speaks about the 5 pillars from Ken Mogi that enhance your Ikigai which are the following:
- Starting small
- Accepting yourself
- Connecting with the world around you
- Seeking out small joys
- Being in the here and now
Lastly, Ben explains that we cannot expect to find our Ikigai overnight. Ikigai is an understanding of our own unique life mission, and for most, that takes many years and it often changes. However, the more determined you are to find your Ikigai, the more quickly you will do so.

Ben Mumme is the founder and podcast host of Living Your Greatness. He has achieved greatness in his life both professionally and personally. The purpose of the Living Your Greatness podcast is to help millions of people across the world achieve greatness and enhance their overall personal well-being.
In this episode, Ben recorded a solo episode where he shares personal knowledge, wisdom and life lessons. The goal of solo episodes is to equip you with mindset strategies, tactics and tools to help you live a great life!
Ben starts off the episode by defining what is emotional wellness. He explains that it involves expressing your feelings, adjusting to challenges, coping with the stress that life brings, and enjoying your life. It includes knowing our strengths as well as what we want to get better at, and living and working on our own but letting others help us from time to time. Emotional wellness includes both emotional intelligence and emotional regulation. The construct of emotional well-being lies within the broader understanding of mental health. The lack of emotions does not equal emotional health, just as the lack of mental illness does not equal mental health. Someone suppressing emotions, especially from childhood, may not be as emotionally healthy as someone vulnerable enough to express their emotions.
Ben discusses why emotional wellness is so important. When we are emotionally well, we are better able to enjoy our life and the people in it. We can love, express ourselves creatively, learn new things without fear and test our limits. We are better equipped to cope with difficulties, disappointments, sadness and stress, secure in the knowledge that, in time, we will be able to enjoy our lives once again. Emotional wellness matters, to all ages, everywhere.
Ben shares 10 effective ways to improve your emotional wellness:
-
Brighten your outlook
-
Take responsibility for yourself
-
Cope with loss
-
Accept the changes in your life
-
Strengthen social connections
-
Take good care of your body
-
Choose to be a good friend to yourself
-
Surround yourself with positive thoughts and people
-
Get quality sleep
-
Be mindful

Jp Cortez is the Policy Director of the Sound Money Defense League. Armed with the belief that restoring sound money would improve the quality of life of billions of people throughout the world and a background in Austrian economics, Cortez crafts policy and testifies at legislative hearings. He is regularly invited to speak at events on sound money, constitutional issues, monetary policy, and state policy.
Jp is the lead author of the Sound Money Index, an annual report that ranks all 50 states to determine which states offer the most pro-sound money environment in the country. With legislative victories in over a dozen states since 2018, Jp has become a leading contributor to sound money efforts across the nation.

In 1971, the United States severed its ties with the gold standard, turning its currency into fiat money. That led all national currencies to be valued against the U.S. dollar. Instead of using gold as the power behind the money, the government is the strength and the reason fiat money has value. JP talks about how this decision by President Nixon changed the global monetary system and weakened the world economy.
As inflation has made new global record highs, Jp explains that this is a generational opportunity for people to invest in gold and silver as they are real tangible assets. Jp talks about Dr. Ron Paul and highlights some of the valuable life lessons that he learned from him.

Ben Mumme is the founder and podcast host of Living Your Greatness. He has achieved greatness in his life both professionally and personally. The purpose of the Living Your Greatness podcast is to help millions of people across the world achieve greatness and enhance their overall personal well-being.
In this episode, Ben recorded a solo episode where he shares personal knowledge, wisdom and life lessons. The goal of solo episodes is to equip you with mindset strategies, tactics and tools to help you live a great life!
Ben starts off the episode by defining what is social wellness. He explains that social wellness is about nurturing ourselves, others and our relationships. It consists of not only balancing our own physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual health but also actively participating as an interdependent piece of the bigger puzzle of humankind. As we care about our personal connections, we also care about the greater good of society, including our communities and the environment.
Social wellness involves openly communicating needs, feelings, thoughts and desires to those we trust, and actively listening with empathy when they share with us. It involves engaging in and enjoying positive interactions with other people in work and leisure and building and maintaining meaningful friendships, intimate relationships and professional connections.
Ben discusses why social wellness is so important. People who have healthy relationships, and a strong social network tend to live longer and respond better to stress. One of the biggest benefits of having good social wellness is the presence of a social support network. This network can be close friends and family members to turn to when you are in need or in a crisis situation. Your support system can offer assistance, perspective and insight into a situation that may have caused your judgment to become clouded.
Ben shares 14 ways to cultivate social wellness:
- Disconnect to connect
- Make connections
- Improve your communication skills
- Make an action plan
- Connect with your community
- Get active together
- Be positive
- Evaluate your emotional intelligence
- Celebrate and compliment your family and friends.
- Smile and learn people’s names
- Improve time management
- Take care of yourself while caring for others
- Learn to disagree, or argue in a positive, constructive way
- Build Healthy Relationships

As silver is a generational opportunity, Peter shares his strong convictions about why silver will be the trade of the decade. There are many great reasons, silver, not gold, became the first truly international currency. Peter talks about the unique properties of silver that make it an ideal form of money.
Silver matters today as central planners, past and present, have negatively impacted the money supply. Peter explains the strategies that central planners have used, and continue to use, to try and climb their way out of huge debts. The story always ends badly for investors who don’t see it coming.
Silver is considered an irreplaceable metal as it is both a monetary and industrial metal. Peter speaks about how this will raise silver demand and provide a rare opportunity for investors to make huge gains from silver investments.

Ben Mumme is the founder and podcast host of Living Your Greatness. He has achieved greatness in his life both professionally and personally. The purpose of the Living Your Greatness podcast is to help millions of people across the world achieve greatness and enhance their overall personal well-being.
In this episode, Ben recorded a solo episode where he shares personal knowledge, wisdom and life lessons. The goal of solo episodes is to equip you with mindset strategies, tactics and tools to help you live a great life!
Ben starts off the episode by explaining that getting started with managing your own finances can be rather daunting in the face of financial goals (i.e. buying your first house, clearing debt that has spiralled out of control, etc.).
Ben discusses that financial wellness is not only about striking off your own financial goals but it’s a lifetime discipline of achieving your current and subsequent financial goals that you want to meet. People who have higher levels of financial confidence tend to have better results with day-to-day money and debt management than those with low levels of confidence.
Ben explains that financial wellness includes three different elements of an individual’s financial situation and their attitude towards it: financial health, financial well-being and financial literacy.
Ben believes that financial wellness is achieved when people can apply financial knowledge confidently to manage their economic lives effectively. That includes making good financial decisions, spending within one’s means, planning adequately for emergencies, and preparing for the future.
Ben shares 5 healthy habits that build financial wellness:
- Have a reliable income
- Make a budget and stick to it
- Create a solid financial plan
- Pay yourself first before anything else
- Work with a financial expert
Ben explains that financial wellness doesn’t happen overnight. You need to take constant, intentional steps toward your financial goals to slowly work your way toward a total picture of wellness. Your financial wellness is an important part of avoiding financial mistakes and planning for a strong, secure future.

Dr. Nicole Adshead-Bell is a director at Cupel Advisory Corp. Nicole is a geologist with over 24 years of capital markets and minerals sector experience, including a dozen years cumulative as an independent director for TSX-, NYSE-, AIM- and ASX-listed companies, and an additional six years for a non-profit.
Nicole's career includes CEO of a gold mining company, long-short fund research management, investment banking (>20 M&A transactions and >C$1.8Bn in equity/debt financings), sell-side equity research, specialist geology consulting and geology research. Her diverse background in capital markets, the minerals industry and as a mining executive and independent director has provided insight into the common traits of successful and unsuccessful companies of all sizes.
Nicole’s extensive on-site due diligence, on more than 250 mineral projects (including precious/base metals, uranium, lithium and iron ore) and involving the integrated assessment of geological, engineering, metallurgical, financial, social, political and environmental risks, has resulted in a first-hand appreciation of positive attributes and red flags.
Nicole has an extensive global network with company management teams/boards, industry professionals, sell and buy-side, and has built a reputation for having a broad understanding of how the dynamic mining sector functions at all points in the cycle.
In this podcast episode, Nicole starts off by sharing what inspired her to first become a geologist. She then talks about why she is one of the few geologists that turned into a strategic investment advisor. Nicole has a deep understanding of both the company builder side and capital builder side. This has contributed to her strategic advisory, due diligence and research services to institutional funds and mining companies.
Nicole shares what caught her attention when she recently attended the BMO Global Metals & Mining Conference. As Nicole has worked with many exceptional mining companies, she speaks about her experience working with world-class mining entrepreneur, Keith Neumeyer (CEO of First Majestic Silver). Rick Rule, former president and CEO of Sprott Inc., believes Nicole is an upcoming personality in the mining and natural resource sector. Nicole shares why she thinks that she earned respect from one of the top investors and speculators in this investment space.
Investing in junior mining stocks involves substantial risk and high volatility. But when you invest in the best ones, you can reap massive profits. Investors often talk about their winners but rarely their losers. Nicole discusses when she hit a home run and when struck out.
To make a smarter buy decision, an investor must increase their probability of success (people, project, strategy, promotion, cost of capital, catalysts, people). Nicole explains how a retail investor can have great success when investing in junior mining stocks. She then speaks about the positive share price catalysts that an investor needs to be aware of.
The best investors in all spaces know how to sell a stock the earliest. Nicole talks about how an investor can become better sellers and keep their emotions out of play. Additionally, she discusses how an investor can foster a contrarian mindset and spot a world-class mining entrepreneur. As Nicole has worked with many high-profile investors, she talks about what separates a good investor from a great investor. Lastly, Nicole provides her definition of greatness and what it means to her.

Ben Mumme is the founder and podcast host of Living Your Greatness. He has achieved greatness in his life both professionally and personally. The purpose of the Living Your Greatness podcast is to help millions of people across the world achieve greatness and enhance their personal well-being.
In this episode, Ben shares that from time to time, he will host a solo episode where you will receive personal knowledge, wisdom and life lessons. The goal of solo episodes is to equip you with mindset strategies, tactics and tools to help you live a great life!
Ben starts off the episode by sharing the famous quote from Albert Einstein “Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance, you must keep moving.” Most of us on a daily basis use some type of vehicle. Whether you use a bike, car, tractor, wheelchair, or scooter the common element for each is a tire.
Tires are symmetrical and move easily and help us attain smooth travel. But, when the tire is flat, travel is impacted until the tire is changed and this creates a bumpy ride! Using that same analogy, to have a sense of well-being in our lives, Ben explains that there is a balance that must be achieved to keep our bodies and spirits strong enough for our journey called “life.”
While health and wellness seem similar and are often used interchangeably; they are different. Ben discusses how you can achieve the best personal well-being through wellness.
