Show Notes
In this episode, Carl introduces the idea of “crunchy bits” and emotional resonance—those subtle moments in a conversation when something important is trying to surface. He explains how to notice the signals: changes in tone, pauses, defensiveness, laughter, body language, or even a shift you feel within yourself. Most importantly, Carl talks about the courage to slow down and hold space, rather than rushing past discomfort. This episode serves as a practical guide to the fine-brush work of real financial planning, where presence, patience, and trust create the conditions for meaning to emerge.
