We Believe There Are
Two Sides of Money
The technical side and the personal side.
Both sides are equally important and complex but it is the personal side that drives decision-making.
We know that you have spent significant time and money to develop your excellent technical skills.
And it’s frustrating to find that it's the personal side that gets results!

Every Financial Advisor says they work with clients in transition.
What makes you different?
Like many advisors, I did not get the human side of training in becoming a CFP or CDFA, yet the skillset is critical for advisors to work with clients in difficult situations. The CeFT training is perfect to fill in the gap and definitely made me more confident, empathetic and effective in working with divorcees.
CeFT training provided me with a solid understanding of when someone is navigating a major life transition. Recognizing they are working with an advisor who is experienced and trained to help divorcees, my clients feel validated and relieved, they gain more clarity about what to do and what to expect, they can trust me as their thinking partner and voice of reasoning.
- Linda Cao CFP®, CeFT®
President of Silver Oak Wealth Advisors
Divorce planning is hard and important work. My CeFT training makes divorce planning easier and more productive for my clients and for me.
The CeFT training is valuable/invaluable when it comes to clients understanding their numbers, their options and making the decisions they need to make to get beyond their divorce to start their next life chapter.

The SMI training has given me greater insight to my clients’ transitions and allowed me to be more present as we move through life together.

The training had added the most needed ingredient in the financial planning process.

SMI training changed my client conversations. It provided me with confidence to address topics outside of technical financial planning and gave me tools how to carry the conversation. Being a (long-time) member makes sure I keep these skills sharp and continuously refreshed.
- Anja Luesink, CFP®, RLP®, CeFT®
Our divorcing clients say we make things so easy! There is so much less overwhelm, they feel taken care of, the trust created is such a bond. I speak their language and use so many one-pagers, not volumes of financial reports! I can say that this training has helped me be more confident, efficient, and human.
