Chris' story begins in Arizona, where his family was among the first to settle the wild and beautiful land. He grew up a cowboy, surrounded by storytellers, where he learned a fundamental truth: words create worlds.His journey to wealth management wasn't planned. As a top-producing commercial real estate broker, Chris outperformed seasoned veterans not because he knew the most about properties, but because he understood people. When a friend insisted he'd excel in financial services, Chris initially resisted. But upon entering the industry, he immediately saw what others missed—advisors weren't struggling because they lacked knowledge. They were struggling because they lacked leadership.This insight was personal. Having witnessed how wealth dissolves across generations, including in his own family—Chris recognized the devastating consequences beyond financial loss. The statistics are stark: 90% of generational wealth disappears by the third generation, leaving broken families in its wake. That's why this isn't just business for Chris—it's legacy work. After transforming one wealth management firm's approach from technical expertise to authentic leadership, the results were undeniable—in just two years, they were bringing in as many assets monthly as they had previously achieved annually. Chris recognized a profound opportunity: financial advisors, with their intimate connection to families and wealth, could create a generational impact far beyond investment returns.Learn more: https://www.psblty.com/Influential Entrepreneurs with Mike Saundershttps://businessinnovatorsradio.com/influential-entrepreneurs-with-mike-saunders/Source: https://businessinnovatorsradio.com/interview-with-chris-smith-founder-of-psblty

I enjoy blending strategic thinking with creative problem-solving to drive meaningful change. My focus has always been on building connections and finding ways to enhance our communities.I kicked off my career in finance, where I found success as a top salesperson. That experience sharpened my analytical skills and taught me how to understand complex needs, which I now apply to my work in non-profit fundraising.What motivates me is the chance to contribute to causes that resonate with me. I thrive on collaboration, brainstorming new approaches, and discovering innovative strategies to advance our mission. Whether it's through partnerships, campaigns, or improving processes, my aim is to make a real impact.On a personal note, I grew up in Colorado, am a military brat, and the youngest of six siblings. I speak Spanish and love to travel! I'm a devoted wife who loves spending time with my husband. We enjoy serving our church, exploring new places, birdwatching, and practicing my compound bow in our league. And there's nothing better than a road trip through the Midwest with classic country tunes playing in the background. These experiences enrich my perspective and fuel my passion for giving back.I'm excited to connect with anyone who shares a passion for making a difference or wants to chat about innovative ways to engage in philanthropy and community work.https://boulderbridgehouse.org/https://www.linkedin.com/in/heather-lagge*************************************************************Judy is the CEO & Founder of the Judy Carlson Financial Group.

Scott Oldford has helped over 200 businesses scale past seven-figures. Today, he spends the majority of his time as a mentor, advisor and investor. In addition, he is the CEO of The Wisdom Group and helps entrepreneurs scale their businesses while remaining in harmony and balance.When Scott was 8 years old, he made his first $20,000 selling eggs from the chickens on his parents' acreage. By the age of 16, he had a seven-figure web and marketing agency. However, at the age of 21, he lost it all and went $1 million in debt. Since then, he has bounced back and, in total, has built nine of his own seven-plus-figure businesses while becoming one of the top business advisors and strategy coaches to entrepreneurs and online businesses looking to surpass $10M/year.Scott has been featured in nearly every publication and podcast, and his methods and frameworks have been viewed by millions of people, with hundreds of thousands regularly watching his business strategy videos and reading his emails, each of who are impacted directly (and indirectly) by the 100+ entrepreneurs he has helped scale past seven figures.At heart, Scott is a scientist. He's known in his community for converging groundbreaking ideas and future-oriented thoughts, and make them easy for others to understand and implement, and can typically be found researching, watching documentaries, or in a deep rabbit hole about something that most people haven't even heard of.Learn more: http://scottoldford.com/Influential Entrepreneurs with Mike Saundershttps://businessinnovatorsradio.com/influential-entrepreneurs-with-mike-saunders/Source: https://businessinnovatorsradio.com/interview-with-scott-oldford-mentor-advisor-to-entrepreneurs

For over thirty years, Amy Mays has worked alongside teens, helping them navigate life's challenges. As a youth director and counselor, she learned something crucial: teens need more than programs. They need places where they feel they truly belong, where getting support doesn't feel like a big deal.That's why she started Happy Crew in 2007. It began with weekly meetings where teens could be themselves, find their voice, and know they matter. What started with just a few students grew steadily. In the 2024-2025 school year, Happy Crew will host a total of 23 weekly meetings that bring together an average of 75 students each time. Already, 183 different teens have found community through Happy Crew this year alone—and we're on track to connect with over 200 students before summer. But we need to do more.https://thehappycrew.org/https://www.happycrewcoffeehouse.com/*************************************************************Judy is the CEO & Founder of the Judy Carlson Financial Group.

As a former spouse of a federal employee, I had first-hand experience of the lack of knowledge that employees and their spouse have around the federal employee benefits. After taking my first federal benefits class for professionals in 2014, I made it my mission to educate employees and their spouses about their complexities and challenges they have with their federal benefits; so that they don't have to face the rude awakening that some of my family and friends faced when it came to the retirement planning process.My position has changed through the years though. Originally, I began helping federal employees directly as an independent insurance representative, then after a couple of years I began helping financial professionals all over the country. This shift was one of the best life changing decisions I made. While still serving my original mission of educating employees and their spouses, I get to have an even larger impact by helping professionals understand the challenges, complexities, and possible solutions that assist employees, and their spouses have a better retirement future. With Fed Options, we provide a variety of services, resources, and tools that increase service, trust, and credibility with the federal employee community saving financial professionals time, money and energy of having to be the federal benefits guru. This helps them to be able to stay the master of the solution!Money Pryor-itieshttps://businessinnovatorsradio.com/money-pryor-ities/Source: https://businessinnovatorsradio.com/money-pryor-ities-with-darryl-alicia-pryor-retirement-planning-for-government-workers-with-cassie-graves
