Have questions about The New Art of Living? You're in the right place!
Depending on choice of your 15-20 minute call, we will:
1. For Career Clarity
On that call, I will:
+ ask what you are looking for
+ see if this is a fit
+ explain the next step clearly
If it is not a fit, I will tell you that too.
2. For Family Money Check-up
On that call, I will:
+ Confirm your goal and urgency
+ Get a quick snapshot of your situation
+ Tell you the next best step
If it makes sense, we can book a longer review afterward.
3. For Alignment
On that call, we will identify:
+ what is currently holding you back
+ what environment you are in
+ and what the best next step is for your growth
For All:
+ Share the next step: book the full review 60-90min, set a follow-up plan, or refer you out.
In a 60–90 minute review meeting, we:
+ Get clear on your current situation (income, debts, savings, coverage, and goals).
+ Identify any gaps or risks that could affect your family.
+ Create a simple, step-by-step plan so you know what to do next.
+ Answer your questions in plain language so you feel confident moving forward.
Bring whatever is easy. Even if you bring nothing, we can still do the check-up. If you have them, helpful items include:
+ Recent pay stub or a rough idea of household income.
+ List of monthly expenses or bills (even approximate).
+ Any insurance documents you have (life, disability, critical illness, mortgage insurance).
+ Investment or savings statements (RRSP, TFSA, FHSA, RESP, pension).
+ Debt balances (mortgage, car, credit cards, lines of credit).
+ A list of your top 2–3 goals (kids’ education, retirement, debt-free, etc.).
No. There is no cost and no pressure.
+ The goal is clarity first.
+ If you decide you want to implement a plan afterward, we can discuss options.
+ If you decide not to, you still leave with a clearer understanding of where you stand.
Yes, absolutely. Couples are welcome and it often helps because:
+ You can align on goals together.
+ It reduces back-and-forth later.
+ You both hear the same explanation and next steps.
I’m local in Brandon and I work with Brandon and Manitoba families. However:
+ If you’re outside Brandon, you can still book.
+ I’m licensed in Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, and Ontario, so I can work with families in those provinces one-on-one through Zoom appointments, or in person when possible.
+ We can meet by phone or online if that’s easier.

I live and work here too. I know the people and families here in Brandon. I’ve helped folks in different stages of life—new parents, workers, and retirees—make plans for their future. My job is to make sure your money works for you and your family.
This is my full-time work, not a side job. I guide you from start to finish—insurance, savings, investments, retirement, and more. I want to make things simple, clear, and easy to follow.
I use easy tools to check your financial life plans. But I explain everything in plain language, so you never feel lost or confused. My goal is to make sure you understand and feel good about your choices.
You can call, text, or email me anytime with questions. I believe in being there when you need me—not just once a year for annual review of your portfolio.
I make simple, step-by-step plans to help families:
+ Protect income and loved ones.
+ Save for kids’ school.
+ Build a safe nest egg for retirement.
There is no cost/fee for the meetings. If you ever choose to implement a plan, the company pays me. You never pay me out of pocket. That means you get lifelong support without cost. My hope is to build trust, be part of your family’s journey for many years and generations to come.

Many families already trust me to guide them. They send their friends and loved-ones to me too. That trust is very special, and I work hard to honor and earn it every day.
