You’ve done the courses. You’ve read the books. You’ve built the spreadsheets.
 So why aren’t your trading results matching your potential?

In this powerful episode of Talking Trading, psychologist and trading mindset expert Linda Miller joins Louise Bedford to reveal why even the most intelligent investors can underperform in the markets.

We dig into the hidden psychological traps that derail smart traders, including:
 • perfectionism and the fear of making mistakes
 • overanalysis and “paralysis by data”
 • the psychological toll of constant market noise
 • why consuming more news, charts, and opinions often leads to worse decisions
 • how high achievers sabotage their own strategies without realising

If you’re trading the Australian sharemarket, learning technical analysis, or following a structured trading mentor program, this episode will give you the mindset tools you’ve been missing.

You’ll discover:
 • why intelligence alone can’t make you a profitable trader
 • how to spot when your brain is working against you
 • practical ways to filter out noise and stay aligned with your trading plan
 • how to turn your psychology into a genuine trading edge

Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned investor, this episode will help you trade with more clarity, confidence, and emotional discipline.

Perfect for traders who feel smart… but stuck.

The emotional cost of ambition in the Australian sharemarket

In this episode of Talking Trading, I sit down with author and high-performance coach Andy Reid to explore a blind spot many traders ignore: the impact of ambition on your closest relationships.

If you’ve ever pushed too hard, worked too long, or chased results at the expense of the people who matter most, this conversation is for you. We talk about why emotional resilience is just as important as technical analysis, and how strong relationships can actually improve your trading performance.

Sometimes the smartest trade you’ll ever make is choosing connection over isolation.

Tune in to explore what really counts when the markets close and real life begins.
