Why have a financial advisor? . Great question! I’m so glad you asked 😆 . Because we all have blind-spots, especially when it comes to money, that can often come with a whole lotta baggage. Whereas an advisor has the ability to look at your financial situation with an unbiased view, we don’t bring our emotion into your money. Granted advisors care deeply about helping you to do little things now & have a vision for how you can achieve all of your goals & dreams. . The key to finding an advisor, is making sure you really like them & don't leave a meeting with them feeling dumb or that you didn't understand something. This is YOUR money, you want to be in the driver's seat & feel that the person helping you has your back! 💯! . . . . 📸@natcaronphoto . . . #tellyourmoneywheretogo #femalefinancialadvisor #FinancialAdvisor #financialcoaching #financialadvisorcoach #financialadvisortips #financialcoach #financialadvisorbarrie #financialadvisortoronto #financialadvisorvaughan #financialadvisorbradford #financialadvisornewmarket #financialadvisororillia #wilimekfinancial #howtohireafinancialadvisor #whyadvisorsarevaluable 
Back when the word "bubble" was still associated with fun! Happy Friday everyone! Hope you all get a chance to rest & recharge yourselves this weekend. 
You do! And never doubt or discount your worth or your services again! Affirmation card lovingly designed by my friend @redbyrdstudio isn't she talented?! 
Random Acts of Kindness Day! I don't know about any of you, but I never thought much of a day devoted to kindness. I mean, like most things, I always figured we should be practicing kindness everyday. But this year, I feel compelled to highlight this day, cause I kind of feel like we all need just a touch more kindness in our lives right now. Am-I-right? So I want to treat you to whatever you'd like from Starbucks, or if you're local to Barrie, from @bohemiabarrie DM me for the details to go & treat yourself to something, on me! 📸@natcaronphoto is a women who often reminds me that being kind is always the better way to do anything. I chose this shot with my son because I try to soak up all-of-the-time-with-him as I know I will blink & I won't be cool to hang out with anymore...😢 
What is your happy place? I ask "what" because, I would say my happy place is getting in to the nitty gritty of my client's goals & dreams to help them to project out into their future. I often say to my husband, Matt, "I'm so excited about my recommendations for this family". Truly nothing makes me happier than watching, often over many years, your life plan come together. So tell me...what is your "happy place"? 📸@natcaronphoto who always makes me laugh like this :)

So, not everything about lockdown has been terrible, am-I-right?! 🍩🍪🌮🍕 We do so many things for comfort. Hoarding money can be a big one for many people. I get it, without certainty on our side, we reach for the things we can control. And I know this has been a financially taxing time for so many of us. But what if we could build wealth building & preservation into something that we take out to provide comfort & certainty, like life or critical illness insurance? True story! We CAN do this within your insurance policies and because of I would encourage all of you to go check out your options sooner rather than later as the older we get, the more your premiums become. 📸@thesocial.focus 
Savings vs. Debt? I’m often asked, what should I do first? Pay off debt or save? And to that I always say... YES! You do both, if, & only IF, you don’t have a cash cushion of $1,000. This cash cushion effectively breaks the debt cycle for you, by being there for you as you aggressively pay down your high interest debts. As it will pay for unexpected stuff that will inevitably come up for you. There are many ways to pay down/off your debt, but I’m a fan of the #debtsnowball as this method gives you momentum to keep going! If you have any questions about your debts & savings, I’m happy to answer! 📸@natcaronphoto 
I had to document this precious moment with Isla yesterday...love this 👧🏼 This moment right here, is why I’ve chosen to take care of both myself & my family if I was to ever be diagnosed with an illness So that no matter what life throws at me, I can turn up & be present for my family & not anxious & panicked about how we’ll get through this financially I choose this, because I won’t have a choice to get cancer or have a heart attack

What goes into your #retirementnumber anyway?⠀ ⠀ Yep, I am continuing our "conversation" from yesterday. ⠀ ⠀ I feel like, you start hearing about retiring when you're young. You know what the whole concept means & stuff, but what do we actually need to consider when thinking about our eventual departure from the workforce? Here are some things to think about:⠀ ⠀ 🏡 Will you live in or sell the home you're currently living in?⠀ 💸 Will you be getting benefits from the government? CPP?⠀ 🏪Will you have a mortgage at your retirement age?⠀ 📑 Will your life, critical/disability policies be part of your income?⠀ 🤑 What will your current investments be worth at your retirement age?⠀ ⠀ I know, you don't have to have answers to all of these questions just yet. But have a think about them, chat about them with your spouse. ⠀ ⠀ I think our ideas of retirement have drastically changed & will continue to evolve as we really start to decide what we want to be doing with our lives. But regardless, there will come a time, when you might not want to be hustling so hard or building your business (if you have one) & you'll want the option to control your own time. Or you may have to slow down due to a health change. ⠀ ⠀ The point of all this though, is that you want to give yourself options.⠀ ⠀ 
Do you know your number?⠀ ⠀ No, not your enneagram number, but your retirement number. ⠀ ⠀ You know, the amount of money you'll need to say adios to your full-time, income earning gig. ⠀ ⠀ I'm guessing that if you're like most of my client's, you've been mostly focused on the making of money for your now. Instead of on how much you'll need for retirement. ⠀ ⠀ This is where I can help! I can tell you what "your number" should look like. But then I don't just leave you with a number that feels overwhelming & impossible to get to. I also help you to implement all of the baby steps to break down your goal into bite sized achievements. ⠀ ⠀ And with the 𝗥𝗥𝗦𝗣 𝗱𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗰𝗵 𝟭𝘀𝘁 right around the corner, what better time is there to find out your number? ⠀ ⠀ 📸@natcaronphoto 
These two are typically at the nexus of all of my 'why's' in my life. ⠀ ⠀ As I'm sure, you, as any type of parent know, the efforts of your parenting aren't immediately evident. And often takes years (decades?) of parenting to see the fruits of your intentional labour. ⠀ ⠀ Same goes for your money, contributing to your investments 1 time is great, but it really is doing & committing to that habit that, much like growing a garden, lets you reap the rewards of growing your money into something that can support you & your family. ⠀ ⠀ So today, I want to encourage you to have a look at what you can do today with your money, that you will thank yourself for years from now?⠀ ⠀ Post it in the comments what your plans are so we can all cheer you on!!⠀ ⠀ 📸@hipnotikphotography 
Ain't this the truth? 💣⠀ ⠀ I know we're all missing the connection we could have with each other pre-lockdown. So I wanted to invite all of you to come connect with us in our "Books, Babes & Bucks" book club, where we are beyond #grateful to say that we have created connections that I know I depend on every month to lift me up & get me through this bizarre time. ⠀ ⠀ We "meet" online on Tuesday February 2nd at 8pm, put it in your calendar. We'll be chatting all about our latest read "Beautiful Money" by Leanne Jacobs, that you can still download for free from the public library. ⠀ ⠀ And we all would genuinely LOVE to connect with you!⠀ ⠀ 📸 by one of our lovely members, @natcaronphoto
