At HT|TC Wealth Partners, we believe that financial confidence begins with education and connection. This October, we hosted our Women & Wealth Workshop—From Paper to Practice: Living Your Estate Plan with Confidence—bringing together clients and friends in Downers Grove for an afternoon of learning, sharing, and planning for the future.

From understanding the roles of executors and trustees, to avoiding common beneficiary mistakes, Shannon Stevens, Kim O'Brien, and Alex Hoveln guided attendees through the essentials of protecting their legacy. The event was a powerful reminder of the importance of open conversations and intentional planning.

Let us know if we can help your family with this conversation or bring this workshop to your company or group.

It’s 2am. Everyone else is asleep, but you’re lying awake, having worrisome thoughts.

o “My mother is one fall away from needing full-time care.”
o “I’m not spending enough time with my kids.”
o “I still haven’t scheduled that MRI/eye exam/dental procedure/diagnostic.”
o “College has gotten so expensive—how can we make it work?”
o “What if I don’t have enough money to retire?”

Our biggest life stressors—such as familial concerns, financial strains, job pressures, or major life transitions—are commonly responsible for racing thoughts at night. They may be related to our past experiences, present circumstances, or future aspirations.

Worrying won’t solve our problems, but it can make us aware of the things we need to bring to light. In this month’s “A Time to Talk™ article, you will take away:

• A better understanding of why you may be experiencing nighttime worrying
• A deep dive into our thoughtful, 5-step approach to starting crucial conversations associated with your biggest concerns and issues
• How you can begin to address your worries at your own pace, when you’re ready
• Some simple action items you can take to move toward intentional resolution of the things that keep you up at night

Read the full article here: https://httcwealthpartners.com/blogs/wealth-perspectives/what-keeps-you-up-at-night

Whether you’re worrying at 2am or 2pm, we can help prepare you to resolve some of your deepest life issues and challenges in ways which align with your values.

Ultimately, our hope is that the deep and enduring relationships we build together can help our clients experience more ease and sleep better at night.

The more we know, the more we can help.
