Episode Summary:Laura Rehbein shares her journey from becoming head of household at age 12 in rural Michigan to building a successful financial advisory practice over nearly three decades. Her book "Fearless Finance" addresses the anxiety that highly educated, successful professionals feel about their finances despite their achievements. Laura reveals why knowledge replaces fear and how proper planning can help clients "face everything and rise" rather than "forget everything and run." She discusses practical strategies like productive pessimism, the bucket approach to retirement income, and often-overlooked risks that can derail investment plans.About the Guest:Laura Rehbein owns Impavid Wealth and has spent nearly 30 years in financial advising. Growing up in rural Michigan farming country, she became responsible for her household at age 12. She entered the financial industry after recognizing a need for more women advisors.Key Concepts Explained:Fearless vs. Reckless: Laura defines fearless as making informed decisions with knowledge and clarity, not reckless choices. Her approach focuses on empowering clients with understanding rather than eliminating all fear."Throw It in a Pile" Strategy: Laura encourages overwhelmed clients to gather all financial documents without organizing them perfectly. She compares this to hiring a personal stylist who sorts through your closet - sometimes you need an objective professional.Productive Pessimism: This planning approach involves overestimating expenses, underestimating investment returns, and planning for longer lifespans. Rather than being negative, it creates a buffer that helps ensure money lasts throughout retirement."Bad Math": Laura's term for overly optimistic financial thinking, like believing you can retire by cutting out Starbucks or that a $100,000 inheritance solves all retirement needs. It occurs when people avoid doing real calculations.Bucket Strategy: Laura structures retirement assets in three buckets: 12-24 months of expenses in cash, 3-6 years in medium-risk investments, and the remainder in growth investments. This provides short-term security while maintaining long-term growth potential.Overlooked Financial Risks:Sequence of Returns Risk: Two identical retirees can have vastly different outcomes depending on whether they retire at the beginning of a bull or bear market. Early losses can devastate portfolios even if long-term returns average out.Healthcare and Long-Term Care: Laura shares stories of clients facing unexpected healthcare costs that required rapid plan adjustments, emphasizing the importance of addressing these risks proactively.Modern Estate Planning Considerations:Digital Assets: Beyond cryptocurrency and online accounts, this includes cloud-stored photos, social media profiles, and email accounts. Some platforms delete accounts upon notification of death, potentially losing family memories.Pet Trusts: Laura emphasizes that verbal promises to care for pets often fail due to changing circumstances. Pet trusts provide funding and assign responsibility for animal care, preventing beloved pets from ending up in shelters.Practical Takeaways:Laura emphasizes that financial planning requires ongoing adjustments as life changes. Whether facing health crises, remarriage, or unexpected events, having a trusted advisor helps navigate transitions while keeping long-term goals on track.Connect with Laura:Email: impavidwealthadvisors@ampf.com | Book: "Fearless Finance"Support the show

Confidence is a self-fulfilling prophecy Key Quotes: Confidence is the mental and emotional strength to resist doubt, worry, and anxiety—and still move forward. The moment you change your mind, you change your game If you're always looking for others' approval, you'll always be searching. You don't fake it ‘til you make it. You do it until you become it.

Send us a textIn this episode, Scott and Chasity reunite in-studio after several remote recordings to discuss their recent activities and introduce a special panel discussion about the Scientific Advisory Work Group (SAW). Scott shares his excitement about getting accepted into OSU for a master's program, while the hosts debate the value of continuing education in fire investigation. They emphasize the importance of bachelor's degrees for investigators before diving into the main interview segment.The featured interview, recorded in Michigan, includes guest co-host Lauren Guber (a California Deputy Attorney General) along with Dr. Elizabeth Buck and Brian Fine (retired from the Texas State Fire Marshal's Office). They discuss SAW, a program that originated in Texas to improve fire investigation through peer review. The panel explains how investigators present cases to a diverse group of experts who then evaluate whether the investigation meets scientific standards. This constructive criticism helps investigators strengthen their reports and testimony, ultimately leading to more credible courtroom presentations. Brian shares how investigators initially dreaded these reviews but eventually began voluntarily submitting cases to showcase their improved work.The group discusses the challenges fire investigators face in court, particularly in Daubert states where scientific testimony is more strictly evaluated. Lauren explains how prosecutors must prove both that fire investigation expertise is needed and that the specific investigator is qualified to provide it. The panel emphasizes that maintaining credibility is crucial, as a poor performance in one case can follow investigators throughout their careers.Dr. Buck discusses efforts to expand the SAW program beyond Texas, having recently introduced it to Michigan with hopes of bringing it to California next. The episode concludes with the "Can You Use It in a Sentence?" segment featuring "hot gas layer" as the next term in their educational series, following previous explanations of "plume" and "ceiling jet." Scott and Chasity also address fan mail, including a question about Scott's recent court case and feedback about standardizing fire damage classification terminology.Thank you for listening!

Julie may look confident, but inside, she's anxious — silently struggling.Together, we trace her nerves back to early experiences that shaped her identity, including a pivotal moment when her father, with the best intentions, publicly praised her in a way that became a role she felt expected to play — even at the expense of her own truth.We also talk about how to feel more grounded, expand your stage presence, and create a sense of belonging in front of an audience.If you've ever felt unseen, misrepresented, or not fully yourself in the spotlight, this conversation will speak to you.Click here to check the full show notes.
