Description

Many CPA financial planners give credit for the career they have created to the relationships they have built within their AICPA PFP community. To spread these stories and pearls of wisdom more broadly, we created the Deeper CPA Financial Planner Connections series in November 2021. In this episode of the PFP Section podcast, Lyle Benson, CPA/PFS, and Andrea Millar, CPA/PFS, discuss the 7 recurring themes and lessons learned that have played through the many stories shared and what they mean to them, including:

1. Know yourself.
2. Be a constant learner and do what is right for your client.
3. You are the coach to your clients.
4. Get involved.
5. Don't let others define success for you.
6. CPAs are incredibly well positioned to provide these services to their clients.
7. Be courageous.
