Limiting beliefs are negative thought patterns that hinder our decision-making abilities, prevent us from reaching our full potential, and can cause harm to the people around us. As Nina Cooke explains during this episode, there is no such thing as objective reality, and the way we perceive our circumstances is what causes us to succeed or fail. In other words, it’s all about your mindset! There are so many different types of mindset blocks that we humans have, and so many ways in which we self-sabotage, but thankfully, there is also another way. Tune in today to hear how Nina has changed people’s lives by coaching them through their limiting beliefs, and
what you can start doing today to overcome yours.
Key Points From This Episode:
• Nina explains how our perception of our reality helps us or harms us.
• What it looks like when we make decisions from a place of fear.

In this episode of the Arista Wealth Podcast, Zach and Jordan talk all about the world of dividends – which are periodic payouts that investors love. This is an important financial strategy that helps build financial resilience.

Dividends are regular profit-sharing payments made between a company and its investors. A company's board of directors determines the price per share, when and how often dividend payments are made. Dividend stocks can provide a stream of income, which can be especially valuable during inflationary periods.

In this episode, they discuss:

• What are dividends and why are they so important in your portfolio?
• What type of dividend payments are out there?
• How Arista Wealth helps their client’s portfolios with dividends.
• What conversation you should be having with your advisor about dividends.
