Phil Weiss, Founder of Apprise Wealth joined Tony on this episode of Get Ready Before Life Happens to talk about how understanding your financial situation, aligning your resources with your values, and having regular money conversations can help you navigate major life changes with more confidence and intention. Life transitions require clarity and confidence.

Key Takeaways

• Your money story shapes how you make financial decisions.
• Knowing your financial situation helps you see what’s possible.
• Moving from your accumulation (saving) phase to your spending (decumulation) phase requires a mindset shift.
• Align time, energy, attention, and money with what matters most.
• Regular “money dates” strengthen communication and clarity.
• During major transitions, pause and avoid rushed decisions.
• Asking questions builds confidence and better outcomes.

🧠 Tony’s Take: Financial confidence grows through clarity and conversation. When you understand where you stand, align your resources with your values, and stay engaged through regular discussions, you create the ability to navigate life’s transitions with confidence.
