    [08:58] - "When your firm has a great culture, a great vision, and a great purpose, you naturally attract the people you want to hire. I think it's a combination of seeking and being found." ~ April Turch

    [12:56] - "We really take a lot of time getting to know the client and understanding what makes them tick, their thought processes, their values, their challenges, and what they are trying to achieve. Taking that time allows us to customize the things they need to get on their journey." ~ April Turch

    [17:46] - "We want to do what's in the client's best interest, whatever that may be. And so I help people have a compliance mindset when making those decisions on the front end so that it's not so scary on the back end." ~ April Turch
