Divorce often brings a long list of immediate decisions and emotions. In the middle of everything, it's easy to overlook the financial details that can have lasting implications.

When discussing divorce planning, some of the areas I encourage people to focus on include:

• Understanding assets and liabilities
• Reviewing retirement and investment accounts
• Evaluating future cash flow needs
• Updating estate planning and beneficiary designations
• Building a team of trusted legal and financial professionals

Taking a thoughtful approach today can help create a stronger foundation for the future.

A conversation I have been having more often with clients lately:

“My parents may need financial help… and I’m not sure where to start.”

This is not an easy shift. At some point, many families move from parents supporting children to children stepping in to help.

When that happens, I usually encourage families to start with a few key steps:

✅ Get a clear picture of income, expenses, and assets
✅ Look for ways to adjust before stepping in financially
✅ Have open conversations early, before decisions feel urgent
✅ Set clear boundaries around what is realistic to provide

It is not just a financial decision. It is an emotional one as well. If your family is navigating this, here is a helpful guide to getting started: https://bit.ly/4oNAKNx

For years, homeownership was framed as something tied to marriage or dual incomes. That narrative is changing. Single women now account for 20% of home purchases — more than any other group besides married couples. This shift represents more than changing demographics. It reflects how women are using homeownership as a deliberate financial strategy.

Planning on retiring before 65? Discover your healthcare coverage options!

I suspect I hear more often than any other objection to early retirement “but I need health insurance”. If you have had this conversation with me, you know that I believe that health insurance is no reason to keep working if you have taken the appropriate steps to plan and prepare accordingly. (no, this doesn't mean saving more, it means saving differently most often). We have invited Caribou to provide an education webinar to you all on this topic on July 10th, 1:00pm MDT.

By the end of this Caribou webinar, you'll have an understanding of:
