Analyzing Behavior to Design a Better Plan

As we begin our partnership with you, we explore four key concepts that help us design and develop your financial plan.

Chaos Theory of Financial Planning

Our financial journey has two key phases: accumulation and distribution. As we move between phases, we become more aware of our own uncertainty. The predictability that we once had is replaced by the unpredictability of forces beyond our control.

Liminality

Liminality is about navigating the transitions and boundaries between different life stages. It’s the phase between "no longer and not yet." These transitions are moments where great loss and great gain can be realized.

Behaviors for Financial Success

Stewardship

Manage your resources responsibly, recognizing that we are all stewards of both tangible and intangible assets. 

Contentment

Embrace the past without guilt, the present without envy, and the future without fear. 

Transferable Truths

Spend less than you earn, avoid debt, set long-term goals, give generously, and pay taxes with gratitude.

Money & Happiness

People find true happiness when they live with purpose, embrace challenges, and seek growth. Choose to be intentional: giving, pursuing goals, thinking well, being grateful, forgiving, having faith, and establishing boundaries.
