Shawn Phelps, our Founder, again qualified for Northwestern Mutual's 15th annual Lives Leader Summit in Nashville, TN where fewer than 3% of the over 9,000 national affiliates achieve this recognition! In addition, Shawn was invited to join a panel discussion among leading advisors to share how River Tree Wealth is well positioned to help privately held business owners and entrepreneurs protect, grow, and sell their businesses.

Shawn enjoyed connecting with old and new NM friends around the country, and grateful for his time with fellow advisors Drew Pavlov, Aadi Pawar, Matt Enns, Joe Anderson and Rob Randles.
