Melinda joins us to offer guidance on how to make the most of the time between an ending and a new beginning and how to move forward into the next day when the ground beneath you is shifting.

Capitalism didn’t fail, it was ruined… Ruchir says progressives are right, in part, to mock it as “socialism for the rich.” For a century, governments have ballooned in size —spending more, regulating more, bailing out more. The result? A distorted system propping up monopolies, zombie firms, and billionaires. Capitalism is no longer fair or efficient. Join us as Ruchir unpacks how the system broke — and why building a bigger state will only make it worse.
