She also opens up to share the importance of finding your ‘Why’ and gives tips on when and how to do it. Her experience in almost every area of the financial planning industry has given her some great insight that we can all learn from.

The lack of a strong academic and philosophical area to financial planning has motivated her and many others to fill this need. Elizabeth explains a lot about the course work and academic programs they are working on, and she sheds light on the definitions of Financial Life Planning vs. Financial Therapy and coaching vs. planning along with a look at how these effect the field. She gets into the messiness of financial planning and the need to find organization without over systematizing and unintentionally stealing the ‘heart’ from the field.
