This month marks my 11th anniversary at Winstone Wealth Partners, and it's made me reflect on what an incredible privilege this career has been.

One thing I've always heard is that women have been underrepresented in the financial advisory profession. Out of curiosity (you know I love the data), I recently looked it up. According to Investment News, women make up just 24.2% of financial advisors nationwide.

Of course, the quality of financial advice has nothing to do with whether your advisor is a man or a woman. Some of the best advisors I've ever knownโ€”including my own colleaguesโ€”are men.

But over the past 11 years, I've also seen firsthand that many women appreciate sitting across the table from another woman. Someone who can more readily understand the realities of taking time away from a career to raise children, caring for aging parents, navigating the loss of a spouse, balancing competing priorities, or simply wanting a space where every question feels welcome and not judged.

Those conversations have become some of the most meaningful parts of my career. They remind me why I chose this profession in the first place and continue to fuel my passion for helping people make informed, confident decisions about their financial future.

Whether we've worked together for years or you're just getting to know Winstone, I hope the articles in this month's newsletter leave you feeling a little more informed, a little more confident, and a little more prepared for whatever comes next.

How much money do you really need to retire? Is $1 million enough? Should you be aiming for a specific number? Or are you asking the wrong questions altogether?

In this episode of The Green Zone Podcast, Jeff Green and Lauren Smith break down why there is no one-size-fits-all retirement number and share the questions that matter far more than simply asking, "How much do I need?" Together, they discuss:

โ˜‘๏ธ Why there is no universal dollar amount needed for retirement

โ˜‘๏ธ The difference between focusing on assets versus focusing on expenses

โ˜‘๏ธ How the 4% and 6% income withdrawal rules work

โ˜‘๏ธ Why your retirement lifestyle matters more than your account balance

โ˜‘๏ธ The role Social Security, pensions, and taxes play in retirement income

โ˜‘๏ธ How estate planning goals can change your retirement strategy

โ˜‘๏ธ Why comparing yourself to others can lead you astray

โ˜‘๏ธ How annual financial planning helps keep your retirement on track as life changes

โ˜‘๏ธ The importance of understanding your investment risk and "guardrails" before retirement

Whether retirement is 30 years away or right around the corner, this conversation will help you think beyond the headlines and focus on building a retirement plan that's designed specifically for you.

As we look back on some of our favorite memories so far this summer, this one definitely stands out. Over the Fourth of July weekend, we were able to catch up with two former Winstone teammates, Melanie Shaper and Hilary Holmes. We love seeing all they're accomplishing and will always be cheering them on, even though we donโ€™t work together anymore. Because once you're part of the Winstone family, you're always part of the Winstone family!

As we gather with family and friends this Independence Day, there is an added sense of significance to this year's celebration.

July 4, 2026 marks the nationโ€™s 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independenceโ€”a historic milestone that invites us to reflect on where we've been, appreciate the freedoms and opportunities we enjoy today, and look ahead to the future we hope to create for generations to come.

While much has changed since 1776, the values that inspired our nation's foundingโ€”freedom, opportunity, perseverance, innovation, and entrepreneurshipโ€”continue to shape the American story.

Our history is one of builders, dreamers, innovators, and risk-takers. Generation after generation, people have pursued new ideas, started businesses, created opportunities, overcome challenges, and worked to leave something better for those who would follow. The ability to envision a brighter future and take meaningful steps toward it remains one of our nation's greatest strengths.

In our work every day here at Winstone Wealth Partners, we are reminded that the most meaningful accomplishments rarely happen overnight. Whether building a nation, growing a business, raising a family, or pursuing financial goals, lasting success is often the result of thoughtful planning, patience, and a commitment to future generations.

With that in mind, we hope you enjoy a safe and memorable holiday weekend and take a moment to appreciate this unique chapter in our nation's history as we begin the countdown to America's 250th birthday.

From all of us at Winstone Wealth Partners, Happy Fourth of July!

Please join us in wishing a very happy birthday to Claire Holmes!

As our Director of Marketing and a member of our leadership team, Claire is the creative mind behind so much of what you see from Winstone Wealth Partners. From client communications and videos to social media and events, she has a talent for bringing ideas to life and helping tell our firm's story in a meaningful way.

Outside the office, Claire is a busy mom of three boys, spends plenty of time at the ballfields, and somehow still finds time for creative projects of her own (if you need a hand-painted banner, sheโ€™s your girl!).

Claire, thank you for your creativity, leadership, and all you do for our team. We hope you have a wonderful birthday and a fantastic year ahead!

After nearly 30 years as a financial advisorโ€”and as the father of three sons in their twentiesโ€”I've spent a lot of time thinking about the financial advice I'd give to folks just starting out.

In my latest article, What Financial Advice Would a Financial Advisor Give a 25-Year-Old?, I share the habits, lessons, and principles I believe matter most when you're building your financial foundation.

One of the things that makes our team work well is that everyone knows their role.

We collaborate constantly, but we're not all doing the same job. Each person brings a different skill set, perspective, and area of responsibility to the client experience. While our clients may interact with some team members more than others, every role plays an important part in helping serve clients well.

To give you a look behind the scenes at how our team is structured and what each person contributes, we recently asked each member of our team to describe their role in one sentence.

Here's what Antonino Green, Client Service Associate, had to say:

"As Client Service Associate, I help clients feel taken care of from their very first interaction with our team, whether they're calling with a question, visiting our office, or reaching out for support."

For many clients, Antonino is one of the first voices they'll hear on the phone and one of the first faces they'll see when they walk through our doors. He helps keep things running smoothly behind the scenes, coordinates client needs, and ensures every interaction reflects the level of service and hospitality we strive to provide.

At Winstone Wealth Partners, we know that some of life's most important roles don't come with a job title.

Fatherhood is one of them.

We're fortunate to work with many fathers who spend years providing guidance, support, encouragement, and leadership for their families while balancing careers, responsibilities, and countless demands along the way.

That certainly describes our founder and CEO, Jeff Green.

As the father of three sons, Jeff has always placed a high value on family. Whether he's sharing stories about his boys, planning time together, or sneaking away for a fishing trip, it's clear where his priorities lie.

Jeff, we're grateful for the leadership you provide our team and the example you set as a father.

Happy Father's Day to Jeff and to all the dads, grandfathers, and father figures in our Winstone community.
