What is the meaning of life? What truly makes it worth living? How can having a meaningful life help you become financially independent? It comes down to responsibility. Choosing what you want to be responsible for gives your life structure, direction and purpose. It's also the same mindset that can help you become financially independent. In my latest podcast episode you'll learn: What is the meaning of life? What makes life worth living? How do many people avoid taking responsibility for their life? How can having a meaningful life help you become financially independent? How can you become wealthy? If you've ever wondered how to align your deeper “why” with your financial success, this post is for you.  

A lot of people think they have a financial plan — but do they really? Bruce is joined by Sandi Martin, a certified advice-only financial planner, to break down what a real financial plan looks like and why it matters. You'll also hear why a real plan is more than just an investment portfolio or a set of bank statements, how to stress-test assumptions (like inflation and market returns), and why focusing on the top three “needle-moving” actions is better than a 15-point to-do list. Sandi explains how to avoid “straight-line” planning mistakes by considering worst-case scenarios, and why an annual review keeps your plan relevant as life changes. If you've ever wondered whether the plan you got from your bank or investment advisor is actually setting you up for success, this conversation will help you tell the difference — and take steps toward a truly comprehensive, purpose-driven financial plan.

Housing costs keep climbing, but smart ideas (and smarter planning) can help you move forward. In this episode of Moolala: Money Made Simple with Bruce Sellery, we explore four timely topics: turning empty office towers into co-living spaces for young professionals, what a real financial plan actually includes, how to design mini retirements without derailing your future, and a first-time homebuyer app that helps you understand and grow buying power. First, Robert Barnard of Toboggan Flats explains how co-living office conversions in Canada can deliver private rooms with shared amenities, stronger communities, and faster timelines by reusing office infrastructure. It's an affordable housing approach that leverages existing buildings instead of starting from scratch. Then, advice-only financial planner Sandi Martin walks through the seven pillars of a real financial plan—purpose & goals, cash flow, debt, risk/insurance, investments, retirement/financial independence, and estate & lifetime tax—plus how to stress-test assumptions and focus on the three actions that move the needle most. Next, author Jillian Johnsrud shares how a mini retirement (a month or more) can fit real life. You'll get practical budgeting rules of thumb, ideas for front-loading affordable adventures, and tips to offset costs by renting out or exchanging your home. Finally, Andrew Peker introduces Homie, a first-time homebuyer app in Canada that models mortgage readiness like an underwriter. Learn how daily habits affect approval, why car leases can hurt more than you think, and how the app nudges you to build buying power over time. Whether you're chasing cheaper rent, real planning clarity, more meaningful breaks, or your first set of keys, this episode delivers practical steps you can act on today.

A lot of business owners look at budgeting as punishment for past money mistakes, but budgeting doesn't have to feel restrictive. In fact, budgeting can be used as a tool for freedom while protecting your business at the same time, especially if you allow yourself the space and time to plan.  In this episode, Danielle Hayden, reformed CFO and founder of Kickstart Accounting, Inc., shares how to use budgeting as a tool for clarity, confidence, and intention in your business, and she explains why Q4 is the best time to reflect, reset, and plan for the year ahead, instead of waiting until January.  Key Takeaways:  Budgeting Is About Clarity, Not Restriction: Budgeting isn't punishment. It's a tool that provides direction, helps you spend with intention, and protects your vision for the year ahead. Pay Yourself with Confidence: Danielle breaks down the three key numbers every business owner should define: what you want to pay yourself, what you need to feel secure, and what you desire to feel free. Quarter 4 Is Your CEO Power Season: The most strategic business owners use Q4 to zoom out, reflect on what worked, and plan for the next year, so they start January with confidence, not chaos. Your Budget Should Reflect Your Real Season of Life: Whether you're scaling up, slowing down, or balancing big life changes, your budget should support the business season you're actually in, not the one you think you “should” be in. Overcome Financial Shame & Guilt: Fear and past money mistakes don't define you. By using strategy and support, you can rebuild confidence and step fully into your CEO role.

In this episode of Financial Clarity for Doctors, hosts Corey Janoff and Rachelle Vanderzanden unpack many of the assumptions that are built into financial planning.  This is necessary when you can't predict the future, but how conservative or aggressive your assumptions are can greatly impact your chances of success. Some of these assumptions include: Your projected age of retirement How much money you will need to be comfortable in retirement What inflation rates will be between now and then Investment returns Estimated taxes at different points during your career and retirement How much you will be able to save How much income you will receive from social security   No two projections will look the same.  They all rely on assumptions, because we don't have all the data we need for the next 30, 40, or 50 years.  When you are working through financial projections, it is a great idea to adjust the inputs to see how your assumptions are impacting your plans.  For example, if you adjust your inflation estimate from 2.5% to 3.25%, you will need to save MUCH more or modify your standard of living to reach your goals.  We recommend focusing on the things you can control (mostly your spending and your savings) but also understand how different future outcomes outside your control can affect your plans.   For more financial planning tips from Corey and Rachelle, you can reach out to them at podcast@thefinitygroup.com.

Here's What You'll Take Away from This Episode: The phrase Amy Bloom uses to turn emotionally charged conversations into collaborative ones—whether you're a parent, a partner, or a planner. Why emotional honesty matters when talking about things like death, money, or family tension—and how to keep the conversation open. How one simple question revealed a major gap in end-of-life planning—and why addressing these topics early can reduce confusion later.

Money conversations fall short when only one spouse is at the table. It's easy to treat financial planning like another household task to divide and conquer, but unlike errands, your financial plan is the blueprint for your shared future.What we've seen time and again is that the person sleeping next to you often holds the key to your blind spots. They know what stresses you out, what brings you joy, and what dreams you've stopped saying out loud. That's why the best financial plans aren't just about returns or tax strategies—they're built around conversations that reflect what both of you actually care about.One question we love to ask: “Would you rather spend more each year, or donate that money to your least favorite political cause?” It's uncomfortable and it works. Couples suddenly uncover real goals they've never voiced before.When both partners are involved, tradeoffs become clearer, values rise to the surface, and decisions feel more connected. It's not just better planning, it's a better relationship with your future.What conversations might you and your partner still need to have?- Advisory services are offered through Root Financial Partners, LLC, an SEC-registered investment adviser.
