What if the goals you're planning for today… aren't the ones that will actually matter most tomorrow?
In this Life, Money, and Living Well Reflections episode, we bring to life an article by Brad Weeks exploring a simple but powerful idea: financial planning shouldn't be rigid, it should be flexible.

This episode walks through a practical framework for building a strong financial foundation using four core categories: traditional goals, milestone goals, lifestyle goals, and philanthropic goals. Instead of trying to predict the exact future, this approach helps you prepare for a range of meaningful possibilities.
Because ultimately, great planning isn't about getting every detail right. It's about creating a structure that can adapt as your life does.
