Beneficiary designations are a crucial, but often overlooked, part of estate planning. These designations dictate who receives payouts from key financial accounts and can even override what is written in a will. Swipe to learn more.

Ensuring your beneficiary designations are aligned with your estate plan can help. If you need help reviewing or updating your beneficiary designations, contact our office.

August is filled with moments that remind us of what can happen when someone dares to do something never done before, moving the rest of the world forward with them. Here are a few milestones we are celebrating this month:

🌊August 6, 1926 - Gertrude Ederle became the first woman to swim across the English Channel, completing the 21-mile crossing in 14 hours and 31 minutes. Not only did she make history, but she also beat the existing men's record by nearly two hours.

🎵August 12, 1877 - Thomas Edison invented the phonograph, giving the world its first device capable of recording and playing back sound. The first words captured were a simple recitation of "Mary Had a Little Lamb.”

đź“şAugust 29, 1997 - Reed Hastings and Marc Randolph founded Netflix in Scotts Valley, California, starting out as a simple DVD rental service by mail. Netflix eventually grew into one of the most influential entertainment platforms in the world.

These moments continue to inspire conversations about courage, creativity, and the lasting impact of one bold step into the unknown.

As you might know, August is National Make a Will Month — making now the perfect time to revisit one of the most crucial parts of an estate plan.

Wills provide clear legal direction so your intentions can be carried out the way you want upon your passing. Without a will in place, such decisions may be left to the state, which might not carry out your intentions the way you would prefer.

With this in mind, we wanted to share a brief overview of some commonly asked questions about wills. Swipe for more information.

If you would like to review your current will or talk through how it fits into your overall estate plan, feel free to reach out. We are always happy to walk through your situation with you and help identify any gaps or updates that may be worth addressing.

August has a way of reminding us that change is already on its way. Summer is not quite over, but the days are already hinting at something new — earlier sunsets, a slight cool in the morning, and a quiet sense that a fresh season is just around the corner.

It can be tempting to hold on to what is familiar and comfortable, but this month is a gentle nudge to look forward instead. This is the moment to channel something new: a goal, a habit, or a mindset shift that moves you toward the next chapter with intention.

As we move through August, what is one thing you are ready to build or step into? Feel free to share it in the comments. We would love to hear what you are looking forward to.

If summer has you feeling like you have lost all concept of time and are never sure exactly what day it is anymore, we've got some good news to share... back-to-school season is here! And, with the season comes a return to structure, routine, and finally knowing the day of the week.

We hope the transition back to school is a smooth one for all of you. As always, please don't hesitate to reach out if there's anything we can be of help with as fall gets underway.

August often brings a natural pause. It marks the stretch just past the halfway point of the year, where we reflect on what’s working and what’s growing. For many business owners, that reflection leads back to one key area: the people who make everything possible.

The most successful businesses are rarely built on systems or strategies alone. They are built on people who feel supported and valued, and are continuously developing. When you invest in your team, your clients, and the relationships that matter most, the results tend to take care of themselves.

As we move through this month and look ahead to what is next, we want to hear from you: What is one way you are investing in your people or your relationships this August? Share it in the comments. We would love to cheer you on!

As July settles in, it is a natural time to embrace what this season does best: Invite us to slow down.
Rest is not the absence of productivity but a key part of what makes it sustainable. Whether you indulge in a quiet moment outside, a slower morning, or any other sort of small break, those moments are not wasted — they are worthwhile.

As we move through this month, what is one way you are allowing yourself to rest and recharge this summer? Feel free to share it in the comments. We would love to hear what that looks like for you.

The dog days of summer are here, and we are just stopping by to say hello!

We hope you’re soaking up the sun, catching a cool breeze, or maybe even catching a nap or two on a sunny beach.

Remember, if there is anything our team can help you with before the season winds down, please do not hesitate to reach out. We are always here and happy to connect whenever you need us.
