Full Episode
Recession is in the air. The stock market has tanked over 4,500 points in the last four days. Donald Trump has initiated reciprocal tariffs across the board. We've got business owners that are calling me up and saying, what do we do? Do we keep our business open? Do we wind it down? Do we keep things rocking and rolling? Do we go all in?
All these questions are going through people's minds right now. JP Morgan just recently said a 60% chance of a complete recession in 2025. What are you doing right now to make sure that your business is recession-proof? All this and more on this episode of Next Level Pros. Yeah, so, I mean, dude, 2025 is crazy. Donald Trump is coming in hot.
This guy is freaking throwing just haymakers from the left corner. And you just have no idea what's going on.
It's been wild. Whether you agree with Trump or not agree with Trump, regardless, there is change happening. There is change.
For sure. And we could talk a little bit deeper about that, but I think it's more important, like, What is happening right now in business? A lot of people are scared. A lot of people got things going on. I mean, me and you just got off the phone yesterday with a couple of business owners. They said, hey, Chris and Daryl, these are guys in our community.
They've ran this business for quite a few years, and they are doing everything which they feel is in their power to keep this thing rocking, but the overall macro economy is hurting them.
Yeah, I think it's a really interesting aspect because people are really concerned with what to do. And the concern comes from what used to work isn't working anymore. And really that's the point that we're at is like everything's got to change.
which actually is a good reference to one of my favorite books, Who Moved My Cheese? Yep. Right? You read that book before? It's a good book. It's a fantastic book. Real small, easy read. Basically, the premise of the book is you got two mice and then two little people, and they're going every single day, and they go through this maze, and they find their cheese, right?
And they go, and whatever your cheese is, money, relationships, whatever, they're going and they're getting it, and it's always there. They show up, they do the same thing, and it's there. Then one day, it's gone.
