Craig Siegel, once engrossed in the high-stakes world of Wall Street, found himself surrounded by financial gains but devoid of genuine fulfillment. When faced with his father's cancer diagnosis and the strains of a toxic relationship, Craig was driven to reconsider what truly mattered in life.

In this final episode of the season, I'm sharing the mantra that's carried me through one of the most clarifying seasons of my life: “I won't go back.” This isn't just about resisting old patterns—it's about consciously creating sacred boundaries that protect your energy, your peace, your alignment, and your evolution. As I prepare for my annual summer sabbatical, I felt led to offer you something deeply personal: a behind-the-scenes look at how I use mantras and affirmations to disrupt self-sabotage, spiritual amnesia, and the subtle pull of what no longer serves me. My prayer is that you create your own mantra—your own declaration of forward movement—as you dream and design your next season with purpose and power.   Questions to Reflect on as You Listen:

In this week's Follow Up Friday, Amber Kuhn highlights the impact of delegating your bookkeeping. On Monday, Matt and Duff Tucker from BELAY kicked off with a reality check every advisor needs—your books might be messier than you think, and that could mean big trouble. However, delegation isn't just to stay compliant but to also save time, money, and sanity. Doing your own books is probably costing you way more than you think so the math is simple: if outsourcing bookkeeping gives you back precious time to focus on revenue-generating work, why are you still DIY-ing it?

In this episode of The Perfect RIA podcast, Matthew Jarvis sits down with Duff Tucker from BELAY to tackle a topic that makes many financial advisors squirm: bookkeeping delegation. They dive into why clean books aren't just about avoiding audit headaches but are fundamental to running a thriving practice. The conversation reveals the psychological tug-of-war many advisors experience—feeling they should handle their own books while simultaneously drowning in tasks that pull them away from revenue-generating activities. Duff expertly dismantles common objections around security concerns and the "I can do it myself" mentality that keeps advisors chained to QuickBooks instead of meeting with clients. From the initial investment in training to the exponential returns of reclaimed time and reduced stress, Matt and Duff make a compelling case that professional bookkeeping isn't just an expense—it's a strategic growth decision. As they note, once advisors taste the freedom of delegation, they rarely turn back.

There's no space for dreaming. There's no space for new ideas or realizations.”“A lot of business owners are lonely, actually isolated.”“As leaders, part of our job is just kind of to help people settle and know they're safe.”“Stewardship is just simply managing something for a season of time… While we're there with our employees and leaders, we're stewarding our relationships with them.”Key TakeawaysThe Loneliness of Leadership.
