In today's episode, we are going to address a topic that I don't feel is addressed very much but affects many families in the United States and around the world. You may have this need in your family, as well. What we're talking about today is special needs planning. If you have someone in your life, whether that might be a relative close to you or a child of your own that has special needs, today's episode is something for you to consider. We'll be talking about what to do from an investment standpoint in income planning, tax planning, and general financial planning. As always, these are concepts and educational tools, and resources for you to begin the conversation.

Have you ever found yourself walking into your financial advisor's office and dreading the conversation? Feeling like they're going to talk in a bunch of different abbreviations and a vocabulary that might feel like a foreign language to you? Today, we're going to talk a little bit about what the difference is, in working with a financial advisor or financial planner that focuses on behavioral finance. What does that experience look like for you? Why should you consider a financial advisor that is focused on helping you through your behaviors, your money story, your philosophy with money, and creating a strong foundation to implement a financial strategy. So if you know somebody that is in the market for having a stronger relationship with a financial planner, or shopping for a financial planner, this is a great episode for you to tune into.

I understand how all of those things play a part in how we make financial decisions, and what do all of these things really mean for us now, and in the future?

In today's episode, we are going to talk about being Sasha Fierce with your wealth! Maybe it's Sasha Fierce, aka Beyonce. Maybe it's Madonna. Maybe it's Gwyneth Paltrow. Maybe it's Michelle Obama, or maybe it's Oprah. You insert the woman who is the icon that you look up to. A woman who is a rebel without a cause in her own way, pushing through those glass ceilings and getting to the place that she wants to be. But she's also financially savvy and aware, producing that responsible level of wealth that allows for her family to be cared for, the community to be invested in, and that next generation of wealth to multiply. I'm talking about fierce female investors.What does it take for you to be in that same space? Well tune in to today's episode, and if you know another amazing female that should be listening to this podcast, share it with your friends.

Today we are talking about what you should be considering around your wealth in your 60s and beyond. And this is a fun spot for me because I have spent much of my career guiding individuals through transformations into this amazing time of their life. Today we are going to talk about the stress of replacing that steady income you were making, how to handle medical insurance, finding your purpose after leaving your job, deciding if it's okay to retire earlier than expected, and how to live with your partner in peace and harmony. After all, you two will be spending a lot of time together!Find out more about Forethought Planning: www.forethoughtplanning.comFollow Forethought Planning on social media:FacebookLinkedInYouTube channelScore our free Wealth Assessment tool on our website.Securities offered through LPL Financial, a member of FINRA/SIPC.
