  • From Fear to Strength: The Wealth 3.0 Approach to Advising Families | with Dr. Jim Grubman

    What if everything you've been told about generational wealth transfer is wrong? In this thought-provoking episode of On Pointe, hosts David and Carlos sit down with Dr. Jim Grubman, one of the most influential voices in family wealth psychology and author of the groundbreaking book Strangers in Paradise.

    The conversation takes us inside real family meetings where G3 inheritors confess to feeling like mere "conduits" for wealth rather than purposeful stewards. Dr. Grubman shares a powerful analogy from the Mayo Clinic that reframes how advisors should think about their role not as quarterbacks calling plays, but as air traffic controllers ensuring nothing crashes and everything arrives on time.

    From debunking the "great wealth transfer" myth to exploring why trust design is a lagging indicator that won't impact families for decades, this episode is essential listening for anyone navigating multigenerational wealth, whether you're a wealth creator, an inheritor, or an advisor seeking a more enlightened approach.

  • Cross-Border Wealth Planning: Protecting Assets & Navigating Global Tax | Sarah Jacobson, Day Pitney

    What happens when a US family member moves abroad, or when you finally buy that dream villa in Tuscany? The tax and estate planning implications might surprise you and could even render your investment worthless if you're not careful.


    In this episode, host David Savir reconnects with law school classmate Sarah Jacobson, a Partner at Day Pitney and one of the leading voices in international estate planning for high-net-worth families. Based in Miami, Sarah has spent her career navigating the complex intersection of US tax law, foreign trust structures, and cross-border wealth transfers.


    Their conversation reveals eye-opening scenarios that catch even sophisticated families off guard: how a single trustee relocating to the UK can accidentally trigger an exit tax on an entire trust, why funding a simple revocable living trust while living abroad could cost you 20% upfront in certain countries, and the surprising concept of "forced heirship" that overrides your will in places like Italy and Costa Rica. Sarah also shares how the rise of digital nomads and second-passport seekers is creating tax complexities that existing laws simply haven't caught up with yet.


    Whether you own foreign real estate, have family members scattered across the globe, or are considering a move abroad yourself, this episode is essential listening.

  • Starting With Why: Advice for Founders Selling Their Business | with Aaron Slavens, Partner & Head of Private Equity at Holland & Knight

    In this episode, we sit down with Aaron T. Slavens, Partner and Chair of the national Private Equity practice at Holland & Knight LLP, to unpack the state of the deal market in 2026. With decades of experience representing private equity funds, founders, and strategic investors, Aaron offers a rare 30,000-foot view of the middle market where most of the real action is happening.


    We explore why deal flow remains steady despite wars, tariffs, and interest rate shifts and why exits, not acquisitions, are the real bottleneck. Aaron explains how “dry powder” is still driving competition, why diligence has become far more rigorous, and how creative structures like continuation vehicles and structured equity are reshaping transactions.


    He also shares practical advice for business owners preparing for a sale, breaks down how reps & warranties insurance has transformed M&A risk, and offers candid insights on AI’s impact on both private equity and the legal profession.


    If you’re a founder, investor, or advisor navigating today’s evolving deal landscape, this conversation is essential listening.

  • Secrets to Multigenerational Success & Longevity | with Megan Helzner & Tom Bonner of CFAR

    What happens when the boardroom table is also the family dinner table? For many, the vision of building a lasting legacy through a family business can evolve into a complex reality, one met with unspoken tensions and competing desires.


    In this episode of On Pointe, host David Savir sits down with Megan Helzner and Tom Bonner, expert consultants from CFAR who specialize in helping multigenerational families navigate the many complexities of operating a family-owned business or holding shared assets across generations. Together, they explore the delicate balance between family harmony and business performance, moving far beyond simple financial advice to address the deeply personal dynamics that shape a legacy.

    This conversation uncovers the meaning of “fairness” when some family members work in the business and others do not, revealing a fascinating framework that includes not just financial wealth but also roles, influence, and evaluation. Megan and Tom share powerful insights from their work, including the importance of “making the implicit explicit” and the memorable analogy of a family leader who uses different physical hats to separate their roles as board member, manager, and family member.

    This episode is a must-listen for families navigating similar territory.
