The financial crisis wreaked havoc on David Edwards’s company…and life. As he watched his firm’s assets shrink by 50%, his endocrine system flew into disarray, and he wondered whether he was cut out for this job, this industry, this world.

But through grit, determination, and a ceaseless will to evolve, David rebuilt his firm, one client at a time. By transitioning from investment management to holistic financial planning, David grew his firm’s assets to $500M in the following decade.

David’s intelligence, wit, and resilience are just a few of the qualities I love about him. I’m so glad to have captured his story in the most recent episode of “To Grit, with Grace: The Entrepreneur Sessions.”
