Welcome to The Personal Wealth Coach—where finance gets a personality, the market’s chaos turns into conversation, and economics is anything but boring! This week, your host, Jake McClure, flies solo to dissect the latest in the stock market, economy, and all the financial headlines that may (or may not) be keeping you up at night.

Markets move, economies shift, and uncertainty is the only certainty—but that doesn’t mean you have to be caught off guard. This episode takes a deep dive into the Federal Reserve’s latest decision to hold interest rates steady, the ongoing volatility in the stock market, and the broader economic shifts shaping the future. With tariffs on the rise, student loan payments skyrocketing, and government policies adding more question marks than answers, we’ll break down how these forces are impacting investors and everyday consumers alike. Whether you're keeping an eye on inflation, wondering about the likelihood of a recession, or just trying to make sense of where the economy is headed, this is your guide to understanding the bigger picture.
