“Without question this is the most profound experience an advisor can provide their client or can experience themselves. Providing financial planning services without first life planning the client can leave a gaping hole in the client’s life. To truly deliver exceptional planning, one must integrate the client’s deepest life goals with their financial goals and resources.”
