Nick Hutchings - Rock Wealth

This week on The Financial Planning Podcast, host Lewis Byford is joined by Nick Hutchings, Chartered Financial Planner and founder of The Retirement Lounge. Nick didn't set out to run his own firm, but after years of cultural misalignment and compromise, he decided to create a business that fits his life and values. In this episode, he shares how he found his niche in later life advice, why outsourcing is key to his model, and how being authentic has transformed the way he works. From school struggles to SOLLA accreditation, this is a refreshingly honest take on lifestyle firms, freedom, and designing work around the life you actually want. 🎧 Whether you're DA, AR, or just rethinking the way you run your business this one will resonate.
