Ep #195: Professional Musician to CFP and Entrepreneur with Cody Garrett

Cody Garrett is the Founder of Measure Twice Financial and Measure Twice Planners. He joins the show today to share his journey from professionally trained musician, where long hours away from family led him to realize he needed financial guidance as a self-employed business owner, to financial planner. If you're interested in transitioning to financial planning from a different career, exploring the advice-only model, or learning how to balance professional success with family time, this episode is for you! Listen in as Cody discusses how he got hired at an RIA, his roles there, and why he left to start his own financial planning and education firm. He also talks about how he secured clients, developed his planning process, and achieved a better work-life balance. You'll hear why the advice-only model works for him, why it's a great niche for new planners, and his mission to change the public's perception of what a financial planner is and does.
