  • E 190-Are You a Financial Advisor… or a Curator of Life?
    May 6 2026

    What if your role as a financial advisor isn’t to help people retire—but to help them build a life they never want to retire from?

    In this episode, Wes and Justin unpack The Curator’s Creed, a framework designed to shift advisors from transactional conversations to transformational ones.

    They walk through the three-part process—Curate, Illuminate, Ignite—and show how better questions, deeper clarity, and intentional design can change everything about how you serve clients.

    If you want to create more meaningful conversations, more energized clients, and a more fulfilling practice… this is where it starts.

    In This Episode We Cover
    • Why advisors should think like curators—not product providers
    • The framework: Curate → Illuminate → Ignite
    • How to shift conversations from money to meaning
    • Why clarity creates energy—and drives action
    • The key focus areas: income, business value, capital alignment, and family legacy
