Show Notes

In this episode, Carl continues the conversation about “risk hangover,” the emotional aftermath that can follow a painful financial loss. He explores common patterns that show up in that state, like overcorrecting, anchoring to old highs, shortening time horizons, or rushing to repair the damage. Carl also shares a simple recovery protocol: pause, separate emotions from the numbers, give your nervous system time to settle, and then reinstall thoughtful guardrails before making the next decision. The goal is not to avoid risk entirely, but to recover from it in a way that leads to wiser decisions next time.
