Rusty and Daniel join us today to discuss how financial advisors can connect with their clients and guide them through difficult economic conditions. They explain how they encourage their clients to continue on their investing path.

They also enumerate the five elements of wellness and underscore why the success of a financial advisor’s business and career relies on self-care and wellbeing. “We have to convey to our clients that we’re partners in the journey, and our ability to get there is only as good as their ability to take the ride.” - Dr. Daniel Crosby This week on The Model FA Podcast: How financial advisors can communicate their value proposition to their clients The value of communicating technical aspects as features How financial advisors can encourage their clients amid challenging economic times The five elements of wellness and the role of self-care in a financial advisor’s life The first thing financial advisors need to do when the markets take a downturn Why everyone should explore existentialism and stoicism Resources Mentioned: Book: A Guide to the Good Life: The Ancient Art of Stoic Joy by William Irvine Book: Man’s Search for Meaning by Viktor Frankl Book: Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill Our Favorite Quotes: “To have a thriving business and happy clients—whether the market is crushing it or crashing down—you need to be the best version of yourself mentally, physically, emotionally.” - David DeCelle “Whatever the normal person needs to do from a self-care perspective, the financial advisor needs to do even more because of all the bullets they take.” - David DeCelle “A confident advisor will create a confident investor.” - Rusty Vanneman Connect with Orion: Orion Portfolio Solutions Orion Practice Management Orion Advisor Tech on LinkedIn Orion Advisor Tech on Twitter Connect with Rusty Vanneman: Book: Higher Calling: A Guide to Helping Investors Achieve Their Goals Podcast: The Weighing Machine Rusty Vanneman on LinkedIn Rusty Vanneman on Twitter Connect with Dr. Daniel Crosby: Book: The Behavioral Investor Book: Personal Benchmark: Integrating Behavioral Finance and Investment Management Podcast: Standard Deviations Daniel Crosby on LinkedIn Daniel Crosby on Twitter About the Model FA Podcast The Model FA podcast is a show for fiduciary financial advisors.
