Everyone has a unique “why”—their path, their purpose. It dictates how they choose to fill up the cup that is their life.

We surveyed financial professionals to find out…

what’s your “why” and how does it connect with that of your clients?

And then we asked clients why they seek the help of a financial professional.

And we discovered the overlap that provides an opportunity to build better client connections and find fulfillment within your profession.

Consider financial wellness as a path to forging these deeper relationships.

Because you may define financial wellness as this…

Financial wellness is having a plan that will work on getting you debt-free and financially independent.

Having strong cash flow, an emergency fund, and an investment mix you are comfortable with.

While your clients may define it as this…

Having enough money to take care of expenses and maintaining wealth so I don’t have to worry about money now or in my retirement years.

Not having debt and being positioned right for my age, having retirement savings and a good plan to reach my goals.

And they definitely want to talk to you about it.
