Small town girl with big dreams and an even bigger heart. 💙

Give me sunshine, a lake, dogs, coffee, and good people and I’m happy. I’ve always believed hard work, kindness, and helping others goes a long way. From small town roots to building a business centered around serving families, I’m grateful for every lesson, every challenge, and every person I’ve met along the way.

Life isn’t about being perfect — it’s about being real, staying grounded, working hard, and making an impact where you can. Whether I’m out on the water, spending time with family, or helping someone create a better financial future, I try to lead with heart in everything I do.

Here’s to staying humble, dreaming bigger, loving deeply, and never forgetting where you came from. ☀️🐾☕🌲

The market has gone through major downturns throughout history, and many families nearing retirement have seen significant losses when heavily invested in the stock market. Here are some of the most well-known examples often referenced in retirement planning conversations:

2000 Dot-Com Crash
The S&P 500 dropped nearly 50% from its peak after the tech bubble burst. Many retirement accounts tied heavily to growth stocks lost substantial value.

2008 Financial Crisis
One of the largest market crashes in history. The S&P 500 fell about 57% from peak to bottom, and millions of Americans saw their 401(k)s and IRAs lose thousands — sometimes hundreds of thousands — of dollars.

2020 COVID Market Crash
The market dropped rapidly in just weeks due to global uncertainty. While markets later recovered, retirees withdrawing income during the downturn were hit especially hard.

2022 Market Decline
Rising inflation and interest rates caused both stocks and bonds to fall simultaneously, impacting conservative retirees who thought they were protected.
