Wow! This is the 100th post for the Fortrove blog. Thank you for reading all of the insights about money concerns and how they relate to your life.
A special thank you to all of my clients, friends, and family for all of the support with a financial planning career.
Reflections on the Milestone and Career
As I reflect on this important milestone, here’s what I’m thinking about.
The joy of helping my clients, who I think of as partners, is the reason why I do what I do. Providing ease, peace of mind, and solutions for partners are a few of the qualities that come to mind.
There’s a tremendous amount of satisfaction to see the relief on a client’s face after I’ve helped them with a tough decision(s) concerning their financial situation.
It makes me incredibly happy to dispense the knowledge that I’ve accumulated over the years of professional financial experience. In fact, I’m smiling in a big way along with a warm and fuzzy feeling in my belly as I write this.
The Benefits to Clients
Most important, though, is that my clients have enjoyed so many benefits.
We all have a lot of complex, often unexplored feelings when it comes to money. Worry, stress, FOMO, uncertainty, and confusion – to name a few. When a client makes a financial decision they are comfortable with, I can see the looks of alleviation and calmness.
- The pressure eases from their stomach and they feel like they can breathe again
- Relief from a burden, and they feel confident in their decision
- They feel proud of what they are doing and how they are moving forward with their lives
Appreciation
Helping you stress less and live a better life makes me feel lucky that I get to spend my time working in a financial planning career. There’s no better feeling than helping someone. It makes me feel incredibly happy!
