With the rise of AI, we are beginning to witness the next-stage transformation of the family advisor role. Craig shares his thoughts on what is likely to happen to the role of the fiduciary advisor in the era of AI – how will CPAs, estate planners, and wealth planners will coexist with the AI tools. One practical consideration advisors and families need to navigate is the increasingly divergent preferences between older-gen and rising-gen clients. Craig offers his tips on how professionals and clients can best manage the “generational tug of war” caused by their different values and preferences. Finally, Craig provides his and suggestions for UHNW clients on how best to interact with their CPA – especially given all the self-serve tools and AI solutions that are increasingly available in all professional services fields. Please enjoy this highly informative conversation with a leading expert and experienced UHNW advisor serving enterprise families.

Create your board of directors. As a business owner, you shouldn't be the middleman between all of your advisors. Surround yourself with a trusted team of professionals, including attorneys and tax experts, and let them collaborate on your behalf. Educate the next generation. The great wealth transfer is happening now. Get the next generation involved in conversations about the family's financial history, values, and goals. Women are not a niche market. With women living longer and the rise of female breadwinners and business owners, the financial industry is overdue in adapting to serve women. Financial planning is about empathy and understanding the unique goals and concerns of every client, regardless of gender. Quotes "There are a lot of tools in our tool belt as advisors. We just have to remember to educate our clients and let them know what's available." ~ Tiffany Irving "Women are not a niche market. We're over 50% of the population. So, we're trying to make sure that both partners or spouses are engaged and involved in all of our financial discussions." ~ Tiffany Irving "Client demographics are evolving. The next generation is here, and we have to meet them where they are." ~ Tiffany Irving Links Tiffany Irving on LinkedIn Mesirow Salesforce eMoney Advisor Holistiplan Charles Schwab Fidelity Investments The God of the Woods Lula Dean's Little Library of Banned Books Connect with our hosts Milemarker.co Kyle on LinkedIn Jud on LinkedIn Subscribe and stay in touch Apple Podcasts Spotify YouTube Produce game-changing content with Turncast Turncast helps your company grow by producing top-quality content and fostering transformative conversations.

Uncertainty is a constant in life—and especially in our financial lives. But not all uncertainty is created equal. Some arises from missing information we could know. Other times, the outcome is simply unknowable—or truly random. In this episode of The Behavioral Divide, UCLA Professor Hal Hershfield talks with decision science expert Professor Craig Fox to unpack the psychology of uncertainty. They explore why our brains struggle to deal with it, how different types of uncertainty influence our choices, and what the research says about interventions that actually help. Joining them is Dagny Maidman, Executive Managing Director and Wealth Advisor at Cresset, who brings the practitioner's lens—sharing how she guides clients through unpredictable markets, imperfect information, and the emotions that come with both.
