The Map Is Wrong: How to Navigate a Changing Economy

Andrea Oliver names the unsettled feeling many of us have when the old economic map no longer fits: grocery-store calculations, shaky job security, and the math that made our parents’ moves feel possible but now doesn’t add up. She outlines three structural shifts—labor, costs (housing, health care, education), and geopolitics—and argues the response is specific, practical adaptation rather than optimism alone.

One concrete step: write down the exact version of the anxiety you’re feeling so you can turn vague worry into a targeted plan. The episode points to further resources, including a free book you can find at www.andrea-oliver.com/noonescoming
