Rock Your Reinvention: Tips For High-Achieving Women Who Want to Exit Their Six-Figure Career And Start A Successful Business Financial Considerations for Leaving Your Corporate Job (#47)
- Are the golden handcuffs of your corporate job preventing you from pursuing a more fulfilling career?
- Does the idea of investing your money leave you with more questions than answers?
- Do topics like investment strategies, estate planning, and retirement goals make your head spin? (Never mind insurance analysis or tax planning.)
Anna Wolford, a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER® practitioner and an Associate Financial Advisor at Parallel Financial, is here to help answer your questions and help you think about money with a fresh perspective!
Anna takes a holistic approach to your personal and professional needs. We dissect how fear might be holding you back from creating the life you desire, share guidance on how to make a career pivot more easily, and why you need an investment advisor or CFP® professional if you want to increase your returns.
Key Takeaways:
- The Importance of Holistic Financial Planning: When planning your corporate exit or managing your finances, consider all aspects—investments, insurance, goals, and risk tolerance—to make informed decisions.
- Money is Morally Neutral: Money itself is just a tool, and how we use it determines its value. Breaking down old money mindsets can help shift our perspective.
- The Downside of Cash Reserves: Sitting on too much cash can have negative consequences due to inflation and other factors. Having an objective partner ensures you strike the right balance for an abundant future.
- Navigating Fear and Scarcity Mindset: Fear often holds people back from making bold financial moves. Sometimes, creating a ‘manufactured’ scarcity can drive better financial discipline and long-term success.
- Understanding Different Financial Roles: Knowing the difference between a financial advisor, financial planner, and a certified financial planner (CFP) can help you choose the right professional based on your specific needs.
One stat that I mentioned in the show was, people who have an advisor can 2x their returns, but only 35% of people have an advisor. I also found this one on NerdWallet: Working on a financial plan now can potentially increase your retirement savings by 4x in the future. (2024 T. Rowe Price Study)
