  • AOMW 071 – Resilient Investing with Michael Kramer

    While living in Kona, Hawaii last fall I had the good fortune to meet a fabulous yoga teacher named Alyssa who teaches classes oceanside in old town Kona. We’ve stayed in touch through Facebook and one day I noticed a brilliant post by her friend, Michael Kramer and the minute I read it I knew I wanted to interview him for this podcast.

    What’s even more amazing is that Michael is living his dream (in Hawaii!) as a financial advisor focused on sustainable investing which fits perfectly with the kinds of topics I like to share with you.

    Michael is a financial advisor with Natural Investments, LLC and recently co-wrote a book titled, The Resilient Investor.  I knew you would find Michael’s story about how he came into ‘natural’ investing inspiring.  Speaking from his home office in Hawaii (with birds chirping and crowing in the background!!), Michael shares a framework that guides us on how to become a more conscious investor.  If you’ve wanted to learn more about investing sustainably and in accordance with your values, I know you’re going to walk away from our conversation with many ideas for how to get started right away!

  • AOMW 070 – Self-Discovery and Life Insurance with John Hutchinson

    Working as a financial advisor I saw firsthand what happens when families don’t plan for the unexpected and since then I’ve encouraged people to find solid solutions for their life insurance needs.

    When I met John “Hutch” Hutchinson recently at an Infusionsoft conference and found out that he shows entrepreneurs how to build their own tax-exempt bank using life insurance AND he enjoys attending personal development retreats, I knew that he’d be a great person to interview for my podcast.
    Hutch entered into this type of planning after his own father’s premature passing. He’s now on a mission using digital education to show other business owners the benefits they get from solidifying their own estate and succession planning. 
    Listen in to learn:
    – how different self-development courses helped Hutch better relate with clients. 
    – how to become the primary beneficiary of your own life insurance policy.
    – why estate planning is often synonymous with asset protection. 
    You can reach Hutch at:

  • AOMW 069 – Socially Responsible Investing with Bill Holliday

    When I became a financial advisor, I got really interested in socially responsible investing and was disappointed to see that very few people were as interested as I was.  I think because many people think you are going to get lower returns when it comes to investing with your heart and your mind but the good news is that it is a fallacy!  Plus is it not priceless to care about the world we are leaving to future generations?

    In today’s conversation with Bill Holliday, CFP(r), we discuss what socially responsible investing is, how it works and why people make the decision to move in this direction with their investments.  Bill is very devoted to this mission and I love bringing his story to you! Bill became interested in SRI when he saw the impact of micro-credit in Nicaragua, when he served in the US Peace Corps.  

    Every time we make a more conscious decision with our money, the world is affected in beautiful and powerful ways!  Enjoy!!

    This is a very special interview with a person who is referred to as the ‘father of life planning.’ The joy of being a podcaster allowed me to speak with George, who I have been admiring from afar for many years.  He has written many wisdom-filled books, taught 1,000’s of financial advisors how to help their clients engage in deeply transformative life planning and is one of the kindest people you could ever hope to meet.  This conversation blew my socks off and the good news is that George said we can talk again soon (YES, I love my life…)

    -Why money often increases grasping and self-concern.
    -The power of life and death to wake you up to who you really are.
