About this listen
Register for Farnoosh's free webinar on How to Get a Book Deal.
In this episode, Farnoosh opens with a candid reflection on media narratives around Iranian identity and addresses a recent editing glitch from a prior interview.
From there, the conversation turns to a growing concern on many economists’ minds: Are we heading toward a recession in 2026?
With oil prices climbing past $100 per barrel and historical data linking energy shocks to economic downturns, Farnoosh breaks down what this could mean for your money—and how to prepare with what she calls a mindset of “healthy panic.”
The episode also dives deep into the rising costs of long-term care, why traditional insurance options are becoming less accessible, and what newer hybrid solutions could offer families trying to plan ahead.
Plus, a powerful excerpt from Senator Andy Kim, who shares his personal connection to elder care through his father’s Alzheimer’s diagnosis.
Finally, Farnoosh answers listener questions about:
- Supporting aging parents while still saving for your own future
- Navigating financial misalignment in relationships when one partner is giving more to family
