Most financial planners want the tools first. Give me the exercises, the frameworks, the scripts. Breanna Blaney says that impulse is the exact thing holding them back. In this conversation with Rick Kahler, Blaney lays out her integrative wealth approach, where advisors spend nearly four months on self-mastery before they ever touch a client tool. She puts it simply — learn to cook, not follow recipes. The real skill isn't knowing which exercise to pull but trusting yourself enough to throw out your whole plan when the person across from you needs something different. They also dig into the tension between chasing money and villainizing it, and how both sides of that come from the same conditioning. For Blaney, success isn't accumulation but alignment, and real authenticity means being at peace with repelling the people who aren't for you.

Breanna Blaney spent years at war with herself — one side chasing money in private equity, the other on a meditation cushion wondering if any of it mattered. That tension broke open when she looked around at clients who had more wealth than they could ever spend and still weren't fulfilled. In this conversation with Rick Kahler, Blaney talks about what drove her to build the Anya Institute and the Integrative Wealth Advisor certification, where advisors maintain a daily self-connection practice and spend months doing their own inner work before sitting across from a client. She lays out her human operating systems framework — survival, achievement, creation — and argues that most of the profession is stuck in achievement mode, treating money as a scorecard instead of asking what it's actually in service of. Her bigger point is that advisors have a rare door into someone's entire life, and most aren't walking through it

Every time a caregiver sets something aside to deal with later, a box gets added to the attic. Then the garage. Then the crawlspace. Then the storage unit down the street. In this conversation with Rick Kahler, death doula and financial planner Rose explores what happens when helpers — caregivers, financial professionals, first responders — never go back for step two. She describes witnessing as one of the most transformational acts one human can offer another, and explains why it demands more interior work than most people realize. Rick connects her insights to IFS in ways that surprise even him. The two land on a truth that applies far beyond end-of-life care: you can't take a client somewhere you haven't gone yourself, and the boxes you haven't unpacked have a way of showing up anyway, usually at the worst possible moment.
