Aiming to be more than “the business of numbers,” the tight-knit team prioritizes the most important results: a fulfilling life, cherished relationships, and a well-protected legacy.
From troubles to triumphs
Throughout his career, Dr. Michels faced two significant obstacles to success. He realized he hadn’t yet reached the influential advisor status he hoped to have one day. As a result, he became a zealot during his journey. Dr. Michels pursued post-graduate education, earned illustrious certifications, and hired the most established coaches nationwide, absorbing every word from an endless stack of applicable books.
However, his second hurdle permanently altered his perspective. After receiving a substantial monetary offer to switch firms, Dr. Michels was stuck between a rock and a hard place. Looking deeper, he noticed cumbersome patterns with the proposition and the entire industry. Feeling as though his beliefs and principles didn’t align with those of the agency hoping to snatch him up, Dr. Michels decided to walk away.
Now, the stalwart executive displays customary CFP® and CPWA® designations, a business doctorate, and nearly two decades of experience driving billions through turbulent market storms.
