*This is a continuation of the conversation that started in the previous episode (Episode 118). We highly recommend listening to that episode first!

A statement of financial purpose serves as the mission statement for your client’s financial life.

It acts as the north star for making financial decisions that are in alignment with the things that are truly important in life.

Most advisors love the idea, but they don’t know how to do it.

Fortunately, Andy Baxley created an entire course on it.
