At Truist, we understand everyone’s financial journey and goals are unique. But when you reframe your relationship to money, a positive mindset can lead to positive changes — in more than just your financial life. We’re helping with inspiration and guidance.

Money and Mindset with Bright and Brian

Listen to our Money and Mindset with Bright and Brian podcast. Together, happiness expert Bright Dickson and financial expert Brian Ford discuss ways to grow your financial confidence and live happier.

When things get difficult, control what you can and let go of what you can’t. The result can be a wave of optimism that pushes you to accomplish great things — even in troubled times.

In this latest episode, hosts Bright Dickson — a recovering pessimist who specializes in positive psychology — and Brian Ford — a natural optimist who specializes in financial well-being — reveal how controlling what you can and understanding what you can’t control can lead to a healthier, more productive mindset.

They cover:

  • Why feeling helpless sometimes is OK.
  • How to understand what you can realistically control.
  • The difference between control and influence.
  • How letting go can give us more freedom.
  • Optimism and the resilience phenomenon.
