Last week, we talked about the stock market’s wild twists and turns in recent weeks. Today, Linda revisits one of her favorite topics: investor emotions. When the market is going crazy, and it looks like the economy is going to crash, what’s the best move to make? Before you cash out all your investments, take a deep breath and check in with yourself. The stock market and the economy will thank you for your mindfulness!

Beyond those crazy moments when the stock market fluctuates wildly, what are some of the other emotions investing can bring up in us? From greed to fear to scarcity mindset, investing can be a really triggering experience. Linda discusses how to identify, manage, and process some of the most intense emotions associated with investing.
