Show Notes

Be honest…are you likely to either shrug them off or offer a skeptical eye? Conversely, hearing you are in danger and that person has your undivided attention.

In this podcast episode, we discuss exactly why we are “seduced” by pessimistic news and how you can separate facts in the market from your own feelings.
