Financial Wellness Management
A financial wellness approach helps people manage their finances in a way that suits their life and goals, not a decades-old formula like Modern Portfolio Theory (fun fact – this is not modern, it was founded in 1952 by Harry Markowitz. Taking a wellness approach stresses education and understanding, all directed at reducing financial worries and building confidence, empowerment, and security.
It all adds up to better financial wellbeing for you.
How Does It Work?
- Enroll in a customized one-to-one program to build your money confidence and your portfolio. This might be for you if you have a specific issue to tackle or limited time to get things straightened out.
- Do you like working with others and mutual support? Join a group to tackle the common issues many face when you’re not only getting your financial house in order but optimizing it for your future success.
- Attend a workshop; a great way to get started in small positive steps.
- Not sure where to start but know you need to do something NOW? Start with a self-study class to work at your own pace and comfort level to get started building your confidence and account balances.
Why pursue financial wellness program?
- Be self-employed.
- Have multiple engagements, often at the same time.
- Participate in many versions of a family - from blended to same-sex to commuting cross country and supporting multiple households.
- Take on financial responsibilities we weren’t used to or trained for after divorce or shifting family responsibilities.
