143 - Empower, Don't Advise: Unlocking People's Potential

The Financial Therapy Podcast - It's Not Just About The Money

Most professionals make their living giving advice. Many of us go to lawyers, doctors, therapists, accountants, and financial planners for their advice. Early in my career I was more than willing, even eager, to oblige dispensing advice, solicited or not. At the heart of seeking advice is when we may be contemplating making a change in the status quo, I say “contemplating” because when we ask advice, we are often not completely ready to take action and follow that advice. Today, I try to avoid dispensing financial advice, especially unsolicited, for many reasons.
