Comprehensive financial planning is like having satellite navigation, nautical charts, and a navigator to get you through uncharted territory.
I take a holistic approach to discover who you are and where you want to be.
We will set goals based on your priorities and aspirations. We will identify potential obstacles so that you never get off course.
Once your course is set, I will continue to help you on your financial journey. If things change, I will help you adjust your course to align with your desired path.
You’ll have ongoing access to my services for questions, to share in life’s joys and challenges, or to be a sounding board.
I will go on the adventure with you.
Planning with me is a four step process that follows the tenets of appreciative financial planning:
1.Discovery
An introductory meeting and discovery meetings to learn your strengths, successes, personal, and professional values. This gives us the opportunity to determine if we’re a good fit.
2.Dream
We will establish your vision for your business, family, and future. We will identify goals and objectives to create an actionable strategy.
3.Design
I’ll layout different options with their anticipated outcomes. I’ll establish action items and receive your feedback to help determine which course to take, then share timelines and metrics for success.
4.Delivery
After you choose your plan, I'll periodically check in on your progress. This allows you to identify what’s working and what's not, so that you never get off course.
