Are your financial decisions based on facts—or ego?
In this hard-hitting conversation with Mark Robinson (a.k.a. The “Shitty Leadership Guide”), we unpack how our self-deception, optimism bias, and avoidance of uncomfortable truths undermine our ability to lead, invest, and grow wisely.
Whether you're a financial advisor, business leader, or just someone trying to make smarter decisions, this episode reveals how ego distorts your sense of realism—and how to shift back into clarity.
In this episode, you’ll discover:
- Why optimism bias leads people to ignore risk and cling to illusions in both money and leadership
- How to spot when your decisions are ego-driven rather than growth-oriented
- Simple practices to increase self-awareness and start making realistic, long-term financial decisions
Stop flattering your ego and start feeding your future—listen to this episode now.
