What does purposeful giving look like for you and your family? For many people, generosity isn’t just about writing a year-end check — it’s about aligning your values, creating impact, and passing something meaningful on to the next generation. In our recent webinar, Giving with Purpose: Strategies to Maximize Your Family's Impact at Year-End and Beyond, Director of Estate Strategy Andrew Kulha, JD, CFP®, and Senior Wealth Advisor Stephanie Bruno shared strategies to help you give with more clarity, confidence, and intention. We explored the key questions every family should consider: ✨ What causes matter most to you? ✨ How do you define the impact you want to make? ✨ Which strategies can help your gifts go further? ✨ And how can you teach younger generations to engage in thoughtful, intentional giving? From understanding what truly motivates your generosity, to exploring tax-efficient ways to amplify your giving, this session offers guidance that empowers you to make a lasting difference — both today and for years to come. 🎥 Watch the full webinar on demand: https://lnkd.in/gDYvR28b 📝 Read our top takeaways from the discussion: https://lnkd.in/gzKmuCiF

We’re honored to sponsor CALM’s incredible impact in the Santa Barbara community. This year’s annual luncheon raised $550,000 to help protect and uplift children in Santa Barbara County, and several members of our Mission Wealth team were there to show our support last week. Supporting organizations that strengthen families and create healthier futures reflects the values we hold as a firm and as community members. Thank you to CALM for the meaningful work you lead and to our team members who attended and continuously champion this cause! 💙

In Paris on the day of 𝘭𝘦 𝘩𝘦𝘪𝘴𝘵, I walked past the Louvre Pyramid at dusk. I was in the City of Lights on my first vacation in nearly a decade. The scene was calm, but the wild news reminded me that loss can happen without warning. Which got me thinking about financial planning. Though personal losses can occur for reasons both simpler and more complex than the fiendish ease with which the thieves liberated the famed French musée of its crown jewels, asset protection is always on the agenda when I meet with clients for their annual review. It’s so important to have a safety net to catch you in the event of an accident, claim, incapacity, or, yes, theft. 💰 💎 📿 A spectacular failure at the Louvre may keep art lovers and security experts up at night, but when you have adequate insurance to protect your family from unforeseen disaster you shouldn’t have a moment’s worry. #LouvreHeist #BusinessLessons #financialplanning #Insurance #AssetProtection #Louvre #CrisisManage

My time in the service taught me that leadership, grit, and true teamwork aren't just concepts - they're survival skills. While the personal sacrifices of serving were significant, the experience shaped me in ways that have been indispensable to my career. It taught me how to solve complex problems, lead with integrity, and build unwavering trust within a team. These aren't "soft skills"; They are foundational skills that I'm proud to have earned and apply in the business world. To all the veterans I had the honor of serving with, and all who have served before and after: Thank you for your service. I see you and honor your journey.

I had the opportunity to share insights in Wealth Solutions Report’s new article, “How AI Will Change the Lead Generation Game,” on how firms can use AI to make prospecting more intentional and human-centered. We explored how AI is reshaping prospecting for advisors, moving from guesswork to data-driven, human-centered engagement. At Mission Wealth, we’re embracing this shift by using AI to enhance connection, not replace it — helping our advisors reach the right people at the right time with genuine care and purpose. 🔗 Read the full article below 👇
AI-based lead generation tools are causing a sea change in client prospecting. Our CEO Larry Roth unpacks the details with Robert J. Sofia of Snappy Kraken, Michelle Winkles, MBA of Mission Wealth, Susan Theder of FMG, Chris Broussard of NewEdge Capital Group, Victoria Toli of FINNY and Derek Janis of AcquireUp. AI can do more than find prospects, it can identify when a prospect is likely to need an advisor – and much more. https://lnkd.in/eSdFypyG #WealthSolutionsReport #FinancialAdvisors #WealthManagement #wealthtech
