If you've been watching recent coverage on the U.S. economy on just about any major TV network, you'll have seen Diane Swonk offering her take on inflation during the war with Iran. In this episode, KPMG's Chief Economist shares her thoughts on the current U.S. economic situation and takes us through a life filled with both trials and opportunities: from a latchkey kid with dyslexia sneaking into her family home through the milk-chute, to surviving 9/11 while attending a conference at the world trade center, beating cancer, testifying before congress, and becoming one of the nation's go-to experts on matters of economics.
