Rick Kahler unpacks a recent article in The Jerusalem Post that mistakenly equated financial well-being with financial independence, highlighting why the two are not the same. Drawing on research and his experience in financial therapy, he explains how financial wellness is about more than income or net worth—it's about meeting obligations, feeling secure, and having choices. Just as importantly, he distinguishes between financial well-being and emotional well-being, showing why confusing the two can undermine both. Rick's insights offer a clear reminder that true wellness requires attention to both the numbers and the emotions behind them. #RickKahler #FinancialWellBeing #FinancialIndependence #FinancialTherapy #FinancialWellness #EmotionalWellBeing #MoneyAndEmotions #FinancialSecurity #FinancialEducation #PersonalFinance #MoneyMindset #FinancialLiteracy #WealthManagement #FinancialPlanning #FinancialPsychology A podcast that blends the nuts and bolts of financial advice with the emotions that drive our money decisions.

“A lot of people have thought about happiness and what it means to have a good life, and I would subscribe to this: We only have one life to live, and what can we do that would outlast our lives in the next 50-60 years?”We are glad to share part three, the final episode of our Providend Conversation with Jeshua, a 28-year-old who travelled during the COVID-19 pandemic to over 50 countries, navigating through the uncertainty of vaccinations, all while working remotely and keeping costs low.In this episode, Jeshua shares his experiences in running his company, Crossworks – the first remote hiring company in Myanmar – and what inspired him to start it, even before the COVID-19 pandemic.Jeshua shares that whether you are a janitor or CEO, a storeman or an army officer, it is secondary to whether you are investing in others and living in a way that will move the needle of life in the right direction.“The value and uniqueness of every individual are important; we are not robots. It is easy to reduce people to a statistic or a label, but we should also take the right path, not the easy path.

Why is financial wellness such a universally agreed-upon priority yet so painfully hard to deliver in practice? In this episode, I sit down with Jason Lee—founder of DailyPay, Salt Labs, and now Chief of Chime Enterprise—to break down why employees don't engage with financial programs, why saving feels like the world's most boring habit, and what it takes to design benefits that people actually use.Jason lays out why most employer programs are stuck in the 1980s, why rewards points sometimes function better than savings accounts, and why the best financial wellness programs should look less like coupon clubs and more like full-service hospitals—ER, diagnostics, and rehab floors included. We also explore how brand trust, design simplicity, and modern tech will shape the next generation of employee financial benefits.Related Links:Join the People Managing People community forumSubscribe to the newsletter to get our latest articles and podcastsConnect with Jason on LinkedInCheck out Chime EnterpriseSupport the show

Welcome to the sixth episode of our miniseries on Finding Your Ikigai, where we invite a series of guests to explore what it truly means to live a good life, incorporating the concept of Ikigai alongside Providend's Philosophy of Sufficiency. As trusted advisers to affluent clients for over two decades, we've always advocated that clients prioritise life decisions before financial ones. These life decisions are what we refer to as “Ikigai” decisions. In this episode, our Founder and CEO, Christopher Tan, chats with Shulin, a lawyer turned recruiter and Managing Director at Aslant Legal, whose mission is to serve the legal community. She is also the host of the podcast After the Bar, where she interviews lawyers, former lawyers and other movers and shakers in the legal industry. Shulin reflects on her evolving understanding of Ikigai, using it to embrace her God given strengths and pursue what truly lights up her life while making a meaningful impact on others. She emotionally recalls grieving the loss of her “lawyer” title and shares that, while money was never her main motivator, she feels genuinely happy and fulfilled, something that cannot be measured in financial terms.Through deep conversations with our advisers, you will gain clarity on what matters most in life and what needs to be done to live a good life, both financially and non-financially—with your Ikigai goals at the forefront of your wealth plan.Music courtesy of ItsWatR.The host of this episode, Christopher Tan, is Chief Executive Officer of Providend, Singapore's first fee-only wealth advisory firm and author of the book “Money Wisdom: Simple Truths for Financial Wellness”.The full list of Providend's Money Wisdom podcast episodes from Season 4 can be found here.Did you know that our Providend's Money Wisdom podcast is now available in video format on YouTube?

More than half of Americans report that they will run out of money when they stop earning a paycheck and millions haven't saved enough to maintain their standard of living in retirement, There is an urgent need to re-imagine the role record keepers play in financial wellness, and it starts by leveraging technology to close the gap between capabilities and customer expectations. “When I look at things like automatic enrollment and automatic increase, that's where it starts,“ explains Will Hicks, Head of FIS Global Retirement Products and Services. “Then it bleeds into the technology phase in terms of how you deliver that. How do you actually let participants know how that impacts their financial future?“. The sector is in transition, where traditional retirement record keeping is expanding into comprehensive financial wellness platforms. Scott Parker, Partner at Deloitte Consulting and leader of their wealth retirement practice, notes that the industry is “at the cusp of taking it to the next level and getting outside of what we've always done in the past, which is more and more communication.“ The change is driven by both technological capabilities and changing expectations which center around integrated solutions: “Our clients are asking us to bring those solutions together, because they want a clear picture of not just their retirement, but what are they doing in the banking space?“ said Sherry Baker, SVP and Head of Global Wealth Products and Services at FIS. Listen to the podcast to discover how retirement industry leaders are breaking down traditional silos to deliver integrated financial wellness solutions that go far beyond the 401(k). Learn the role that modernization, data, personalization, and cybersecurity play in pushing record keepers forward. It's a conversation on record keeping organizations can meet regulatory requirements while meeting the daily engagement expectations of younger participants.

Struggling to get your spouse involved in retirement planning?You are not alone. Many financially-minded partners lose their spouse's attention by jumping straight into 401(k) allocations or tax strategies. The result is glazed eyes and little engagement.This approach works differently. Start with powerful, open-ended questions that spark curiosity and connection. Ask things like “What does your perfect retirement day look like?” or “If we had to spend $150,000 this year, how would you want to use it?” These prompts bypass resistance and lead to meaningful conversations about dreams, priorities, and lifestyle.When you know whether your partner envisions constant travel or staying close to home, or whether they fear losing purpose more than running out of money, you can build a plan you both believe in. Lifestyle clarity comes first. The numbers follow naturally.Retirement planning is not just about financial optimization. It is about creating a shared vision for the years ahead with the person who matters most. Try these questions with your partner and watch the conversation shift from spreadsheets to shared dreams.Visit earlyretirementpodcast.com to share your results or explore tools for building a plan that works for both of you.-Advisory services are offered through Root Financial Partners, LLC, an SEC-registered investment adviser.

“It's not about the ability to retire but also how we utilise the time while we are on this planet. In the last three years, I was travelling with just one backpack. Every item I buy has to fit in that backpack. If I buy something new, it means that I have to give up something else.”We are back with part two of our Providend Conversation with Jeshua, a 28-year-old who travelled during the COVID-19 pandemic to over 50 countries, navigating through the uncertainty of vaccinations, all while working remotely and keeping costs low.In this episode, Jeshua opened up about his reasons for choosing to study at a polytechnic versus the junior college and university route and why he considered it a ‘shortcut' in his filmmaking and creative journey.Jeshua believes that education is really about learning, and for him, it's less about being in a ‘branded' education institution and having a certificate. He also shared how his parents reacted to the choices he made: “It wasn't like I was going to drop out of school to do drugs or join a gang.” In fact, he considers himself to have graduated from the “university of life”.His thoughts on ‘fitting everything into one backpack' is truly a wonderful depiction of life and something for us to think about – what really matters to us and what we should or should not carry in our own ‘backpack' in life and how to live the most meaningful life that we possibly can.It has been a joy having Jeshua with us, and we hope you find his story as inspiring as we did.Music courtesy of ItsWatR.The host of this episode, Christopher Tan, is Chief Executive Officer of Providend, Singapore's first fee-only wealth advisory firm and author of the book “Money Wisdom: Simple Truths for Financial Wellness”.The full list of Providend's Money Wisdom podcast episodes from Season 4 can be found here.Did you know that our Providend's Money Wisdom podcast is now available in video format on YouTube?

On this episode of the Inner Edison podcast, host Ed Parcaut chats with Eric Brotman, a seasoned financial advisor and entrepreneur, about his unconventional journey into the world of finance and the lessons learned along the way. Eric shares how a failed plan to become a lawyer led him by accident into finance, his entrepreneurial leap after starting over from scratch at age 30, and how adversity—like the 2008 recession—shaped his business and personal growth. Ed and Eric dive deep into the realities of entrepreneurship: the risks, the need for resilience, and the lessons that come from setbacks. Eric shares actionable insights on building financial independence, including practical strategies for tax diversification, the use of whole life insurance, and the importance of financial literacy for business owners and families alike. They also discuss Eric's philosophy behind his book, “Don't Retire… Graduate,” which challenges the conventional notion of retirement and encourages listeners to plan for a financially free and fulfilling next chapter. Along the way, the conversation covers mistakes, management missteps, innovations during the pandemic, and the value of aligning company culture for long-term success. Whether you're an aspiring entrepreneur or a seasoned business owner, this episode is packed with candid stories, practical advice, and a refreshing perspective on success, failure, and building a life (and business) you love.

What do control, perfectionism, and money have in common? For many of us, they're deeply rooted in childhood wounds, and they're the very blocks standing between us and our manifestations.In this heartfelt Q&A episode, Lacy and Jessica respond to powerful community questions that crack open the real energetics behind love, money, motherhood, and glass ceilings. Whether you're navigating burnout, trying to call in more income, or craving peace while juggling life's many demands, this conversation offers guidance, tools, and expansion to help you move forward. You'll hear personal revelations from Lacy and Jessica about their own inner child programming around control; how it shows up in work, relationships, and even wedding planning.
