After quite a bit of time away from home, I’m heading back feeling grateful, refreshed, and energized!

Between team time, great dinners, exploring new places, learning, and plenty of laughs, it’s been an awesome stretch.

A few photos from our time in ATL at the Park Avenue Wealth Management conference!

Lots of great takeaways, new ideas, and conversations. Excited to dig through my notes this weekend and, more importantly, turn those ideas into action to better serve our clients.

Always learning. Always growing. Always looking for ways to get better.

Grateful for the people I get to do this with!

Three new meetings a week for nearly 10 years.

We’ve seen student loans double while no payments were being made.

We’ve seen someone go from owning one property to ten in a single year.

Businesses grow. Income changes. Families expand. Life gets complicated fast.

The stories are endless, but the mission stays the same:

Help people make better decisions, get organized, and feel more confident about their money.

Whatever season you’re in, we’re here for you.

Before you give up equity in your business…

Slow down.

Equity is the most expensive currency you have.

Sometimes bringing on a partner makes sense.

But before you hand someone 10%, 20%, 30% of what you’re building, consider other ways to solve the problem:

Pay a strong salary.

Create a bonus structure.

Use profit sharing.

Offer phantom equity.

Build a deferred compensation plan.

Hire a consultant.

Create a revenue share.

Use a contractor.

Finance the growth.

Improve cash flow.

Raise prices.

Cut waste.

Systematize the business.

Build a stronger management team.

Create employee incentives without giving away ownership.

Equity should be protected.

Because once it’s gone, it’s very hard to get back.

Don’t give away the upside forever to solve a temporary problem today.

Every day looks a little different in this business.

Some days you’re playing golf with clients.

Some days you’re traveling to a conference in Napa Valley.

Some days you have 5–10 meetings back-to-back.

Some days are for business planning, team meetings, and working on the vision.

And some days are just freaking hard.

Strategy meetings.
Listening intently for hours.
Having tough conversations.
Carrying real responsibility.
Helping people through things you never imagined you’d be part of.

That’s the part people don’t always see.

This career can look shiny from the outside.

But behind the scenes, it takes a lot of grit, care, patience, and emotional energy.

Still wouldn’t trade it.

A cool problem to have:

June was booked.
July is booked.
And we have 3 openings left in August.

I’m incredibly grateful.

One of our team goals has been simple:

A referral from every client.
A client from every referral.

Not because we want growth just to grow.

Because good people know good people.

And when a client introduces us to a friend, family member, or business connection, we take that seriously.

That trust means everything.

The momentum has not come from hype.

It has come from real conversations.
Real planning.
Real life changes.

Kids.
Marriage.
Growing businesses.
Big tax bills.
New jobs.
Retirement decisions.
Too many accounts in too many places.

At some point, life gets bigger.

And when life gets bigger, the plan has to grow with it.

So thank you.

For every introduction.
Every conversation.
Every chance to help someone get more organized, more clear, and more confident with their money.

We’re continuing to make room for the right people.

People who want real financial planning.
Not just investment talk.

Who do you know that could use a second set of eyes?

Top 10 Reasons People Hire ME

A Financial Planner

1. They had a kid
Life gets real when people start depending on you.

2. They’re getting married
Two incomes, two money habits, one future.

3. Their business is growing
More income, more complexity, more decisions.

4. They got crushed by a tax bill
Nothing creates urgency like writing a painful check.

5. They make good money but don’t feel organized
High income doesn’t automatically mean clarity.

6. They have too many accounts everywhere
Old 401(k)s, IRAs, insurance policies, bank accounts, random investments.

7. They want to protect their family
Life insurance, disability, estate documents, cash reserves, the unsexy stuff that matters.

8. They’re tired of guessing
Google, TikTok, coworkers, golf buddies, too much noise.

9. They’re approaching a big transition
New job, new house, business sale, retirement, inheritance, baby, divorce, etc.

10. They want confidence
Not perfection. Just a clear plan, better decisions, and someone helping them stay on track.

The real reason?

Life got bigger.
The money got more complex.
And they’re ready to stop winging it.

There is a weird gap that starts to show up around $5M of net worth.

People look buttoned up from the outside.

Business is doing well.

Investments are growing.

Real estate is worth more.

Insurance is in place.

Estate docs exist somewhere.

But when you actually look under the hood…

Nobody is really driving the bus.

The CPA is doing tax returns.

The attorney drafted documents years ago.

The advisor is watching the portfolio.

The insurance was bought three kids, two houses, and a business ago.

None of them are bad.

They just are not all working from the same plan.

And that is where things get expensive.

I have seen families with millions of dollars still feel like they are the project manager of their own financial life.

Forwarding emails.

Chasing answers.

Trying to figure out what decision impacts the next one.

That is not planning.

That is a bunch of smart people working in silos.

At a certain level, planning is not just investments.

It is coordination.

It is sequencing.

It is making sure the right people are in the room before the big decision gets made.

Most big mistakes do not happen because people are reckless.

They happen because successful people are busy.

And no one is watching the whole picture.

Quick retirement planning reminder for 2026 👇

The IRS increased several contribution limits for 2026, which means there may be more room to save, invest, and build flexibility.

A few big ones:

✅ 401(k), 403(b), 457 & TSP
Employee contribution limit increased to $24,500.

If you’re 50+, the catch-up is $8,000, bringing the total to $32,500.

If you’re age 60–63, there may be an even higher catch-up opportunity.

✅ IRA / Roth IRA
Contribution limit increased to $7,500.

If you’re 50+, the catch-up is $1,100, bringing the total to $8,600.

✅ SIMPLE IRA
Contribution limit increased to $17,000, with additional catch-up options depending on age and plan rules.

✅ Medicare Part B
The standard Part B premium increased to $202.90/month in 2026, which matters for retirees watching cash flow, Social Security, and income planning.

The point:

Don’t just “set it and forget it.”

Review your savings rate, employer plan, Roth eligibility, cash flow, tax bracket, and retirement income plan.

Small adjustments each year can create a big difference over time.

This is where good planning matters.
