What do you want from 2019? How about becoming a badass? Our guest today says you’re already a badass and just might not know it. Jen Sincero has written TWO New York Times bestsellers, but today she’s here with us teaching you how to kick off a new year by bringing out the best in yourself and your wallet.
Plus, in our headlines segment, why should employers be worried about employee financial stress? We’ll tackle one article on the impact that financial stress has on employees while they’re at the workplace. Plus, in our second headline, can advisors use behavioral science to guide their clients to making better financial choices?
Later on we’ll throw out the Haven Life Line to Mike, who calls in to see what he can do to help his mom manage her portfolio.
And don’t worry… we’ll still have time for Doug’s trivia.
