    The Automatic Millionaire Reimagined: David Bach on Wealth, Freedom, and the Future of Money with Joe Polish

    David Bach explains why automation—not intention—is the real key to building wealth, and how "pay yourself first" creates financial freedom without painful budgeting. He also shares a bold IRA flat-tax idea to unlock retirement money and why mini-retirements and sabbaticals can be a life-changing investment. Here's a glance at what you'll discover in this episode: How one woman's $1 decision at age 30 changed four generations of a family and sparked a global movement for financial freedom. The overlooked moment that turned a young financial advisor's frustration into a sold-out seminar for women and a bestselling book series that changed millions of lives. Why budgeting and discipline rarely work, and a simple automated system designed to help people build wealth over time without relying on constant effort. The biggest lie entrepreneurs tell themselves about "the exit," and what to do instead if you actually want financial independence. The three overlooked moves that turn a successful business into lasting wealth and protect the people you love most. The near-death experience that forced David to clean up his finances, update his will, and rethink what truly matters. The bold $45 trillion idea that could unlock a generation's retirement savings and spark a new economic boom. Why money is not the goal but the tool—and how financial peace frees you to hear your higher calling. How taking a one-year sabbatical can reset your health, creativity, and soul, and why every entrepreneur should plan "mini-retirements" before burnout hits. The simple daily practice that costs nothing, changes lives, and makes you (and everyone around you) richer in the ways that count most.

    Mastering High-Stakes Communication: How to Lead, Influence, and Connect Without Losing Control with Chris Voss, Jefferson Fisher, and Joe Polish

    Joe Polish sits down with former FBI hostage negotiator Chris Voss and communication expert Jefferson Fisher to break down what actually works in high-stakes conversations—at home, in leadership, and in negotiations—without slipping into aggression or defensiveness. Here's a glance at what you'll discover in this episode: Why most leaders spend 80% of their time communicating yet never learn how to do it effectively, and what separates those who connect from those who collapse under pressure. The myth of "finding common ground," and why trying to relate can quietly destroy empathy instead of build it. The counterintuitive reason sharing your own story often backfires, and what to do instead to make people feel truly heard. How one airplane disaster proved Chris Voss's rule that "common ground" can be the fastest way to lose trust. The fine line between aggressive, assertive, and passive, and how to command respect without crossing it. A phrase Jefferson Fisher says can help stop an argument and save a relationship (used by countless couples and CEOs alike). A handful of simple words that dissolve defensiveness and open the door to real resolution. How to turn anger into intelligence: what neuroscience and hostage negotiation reveal about why "strategic umbrage" always fails. The mindset that makes you unshakable in any crisis, and why c________ is stronger than confidence. The simple breathing trick Jefferson teaches to steady your voice and calm your nervous system before the words even start. The hidden ingredient of influence that outperforms charisma, and how to use it so people lean in when you speak. The surprising mindset shift both Chris and Jefferson say can transform every negotiation, every argument, and every relationship.

    Emmy-nominated actress and author Cheryl Hines joins Joe Polish to share how living Unscripted—in Hollywood, marriage, and life—taught her to trust her instincts, stay grounded under pressure, and find humor in uncertainty. How growing up with nothing gave Cheryl Hines the fearless mindset that launched her from a Florida lunch line to Hollywood.

What writing her life story taught her about saying yes to uncertainty before she felt ready. Why the safest path can be the most dangerous one, and how real freedom begins the moment you stop trying to protect yourself. How the improv rules that made Curb Your Enthusiasm a hit became her framework for living with courage, humor, and connection.
