Managing Through An Economic Downturn
In this episode, John breaks down the economic realities behind the headlines — and what they mean for your wallet. While the U.S. remains the world’s strongest economy, warning signs are flashing: rising costs, slowing consumer confidence, cracks in real estate markets, and widening financial strain in working families — especially in Black America. John reveals the “canary in the coal mine” indicators most people are missing, explains why Wall Street and Main Street are telling two different stories, and highlights how artificial intelligence is reshaping the future faster than any previous economic shift. Most importantly, he gives you a practical game plan to not only survive potential downturns — but win in them. This episode is your blueprint for staying clear-eyed, confident, and prepared.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
