• Manifesting a Cross-Country Move with Love, Ease & “This or Something Better” | Fireside Chat 216
    Sep 16 2025

    Moving across the country is one of the biggest transitions a family can make—but what if it didn't have to feel overwhelming, stressful, or chaotic? What if selling your home, buying a new one, and relocating your family could actually unfold with ease, joy, and even a sense of love-filled alignment?

    In this special Fireside Chat episode, Hannah Chapman, CFP®, APMA®, CRPC®, and her executive assistant, Svetlana, share the behind-the-scenes story of Hannah's recent move from Cincinnati, OH to Mesa, AZ, exploring how intention, manifestation, and practical action came together to create a surprisingly smooth and abundant transition.

    In this episode, you'll learn:

    • Intentional Manifestation (that isn't woo-only): How Hannah paired meditation and energy work with meticulous prep, pricing, and timing.
      “Love as an operating system”: What it means to infuse a transaction with care—for your family, buyers/sellers, neighbors, and community businesses.

    • From vision to sold in <24 hours: The specific timeline, offers (including escalation clauses & appraisal gaps), and terms that exceeded expectations.
      Prep that pays: Upgrades that mattered and what they skipped.
      Holding boundaries with grace: Staying grounded when other parties bring hard-nosed energy.
      Mantras & meetings: The weekly “relationship board meeting,” shared meditations, and the phrase that kept everything spacious: this or something better.

    • Svetlana's story: From rental uncertainty to first-time ownership—and the people who made it possible.

  • Fed Cut Likely — Here’s What It Means for Your Cash and Mortgage | Investment Friday 215
    Sep 12 2025

    Inflation may be cooling, but investors are still holding their breath ahead of next week's Fed meeting. With producer prices turning negative and CPI holding near 3%, the data suggests relief—but markets know that interest rate cuts ripple unevenly across savings, mortgages, and housing. Will this shift spark opportunity, or more frustration for households still waiting for rates to ease?

    In this episode, Hannah Chapman, CFP®, APMA®, CRPC®, and Brad Haines, CFA, FRM, and Chief Investment Officer of Juncture Wealth Strategies, unpack the week's economic headlines, from inflation surprises to the tariff impact on farms, and explain what a Fed rate cut really means for your cash, mortgage rates, and the housing market.

    Learn about:

    · Inflation check: With PPI negative and CPI ~3%, how much “air cover” does the Fed have to cut?

    · Your cash next week: If the Fed trims 25 bps, how quickly might money market and high-yield savings rates reset, and by roughly how much?

    · Mortgage rates ≠ Fed funds: How do 10-year Treasury yields drive mortgage rates, and why do home-loan rates often lag short-rate cuts?

    · Tariffs & prices: Where tariff impacts are showing up (and not), the farm economy angle, and how changing policy guidance could add or remove ~1% of inflation pressure over time.

    · Housing tug-of-war: Rates vs. prices—what could happen if mortgage rates drift toward 5% while supply stays tight?

    · Fixing supply: Why local permitting & financing bottlenecks matter; ideas to re-open bank lending lines to builders/developers.

  • The Great Life Experiment with Joey Vaillancourt | 214
    Sep 9 2025

    What if the real secret to success isn't grinding harder, but learning to relax, surrender, and align your life with what truly matters? Too many entrepreneurs build the business they thought they wanted, only to wake up stressed, unfulfilled, and longing for more presence with family and joy in daily life.

    In this episode, Hannah Chapman, CFP®, APMA®, CRPC®, sits down with Joey Vaillancourt—entrepreneur, consultant, coach, and founder of The Great Life Experiment. Joey shares his journey from chasing success through ego and hustle, to redefining success as alignment, freedom, and peace. From releasing numbing habits like alcohol, to learning the power of neuro-sculpting and the reticular activating system, Joey shows how shifting your mindset and emotional state can change everything about how you build and live your life.

    Key themes from this conversation:

    • Why success built on hustle and ego feels empty in the long run

    • The pivotal lessons Joey learned from mentors who challenged his mindset

    • How to recognize when you're operating from a primal state vs. a powerful state

    • The role of forgiveness, surrender, and emotional depth in lasting transformation

    • Why numbing behaviors (alcohol, overwork, distraction) block true growth and joy

    • How to align your business with your lifestyle instead of sacrificing life for business

    • The vision behind The Great Life Experiment—and how micro-reflections create macro change

    • Could AI be a bigger bubble than the dot-com era — or is it the next “Goldilocks” growth phase?
