Want To See Your Finances In A New Way? Do THIS
Saturday, I watched a ‘data nerd’ financial coach have his entire worldview shift in real time.
We were discussing whether data or experiences drive decisions, so I said: “US Figure Skating has lost two entire generations to plane crashes – 1961 and 2025. When they think about flying, what data matters: national statistics saying crashes are rare, or their own experience losing 46 people?”
His response: “Obviously their experience.”
That’s your story too, isn’t it?
You’re not being “difficult” or “overthinking.”
You’re being intelligent.
While financial advisors, TikTok gurus, and other financial coaches throw statistics at you – like “78% of people live paycheck-to-paycheck”- here’s what you’re thinking about:
Your parents who lost everything in 2008 and how not to repeat that experience
How you nearly lost your business when you were required to shut it down in March 2020.
Having millions but unable to trust your financial decisions
While they’re preaching stats & strategies, you’re remembering how one-size-fits-all advice failed people you love.
They see problems. I see wisdom.
Your lived experiences will always matter more than their case studies – and that’s exactly why traditional financial advice feels wrong.
Ready to work with someone who says ‘That makes complete sense’ instead of ‘You’re being irrational’?
Because the people who call you ‘difficult’ wish they had your financial instincts.
