Financial Fluency Episode #57 Smart Future Planning with Nicole Wipp

/0 Comments/in , /by

Today on Financial Fluency, I am  so excited to have the amazing Nicole Wipp with me today. Nicole is a master of juggling multiple businesses.

She owns the Family and Aging Law Center in Michigan, focusing on elder law and asset protection. She’s the host of the Smart Planning 101 podcast, the founder of Wipp Enterprises, focusing on business and personal development, and does corporate consulting on the side!

In this episode, Nicole will share with us about the importance of preparing for the future, either for care for your ailing parents, or care for you children, should you be found with a disability or should they have a disability, like autism.

Nicole shares in depth about her illness, early in 2015, where she ended up in the hospital with a rare lung disease. It required her to be hospitalized for 30 days, receive over 50 medications, 4 surgeries, and her husband, 4 year old, and multiple businesses were left to make it on their own while she figured out exactly what was going on.

Luckily her business was set up in such a way that it was able to function and go on without her for a full 90 days while she was in recovery.

Her program Innate impact created out of this experience, to help entrepreneurs be prepared for temporary disability so their businesses can be self sustaining.

Quotes

  • “The goal of smart planning is to reduce the overwhelm.” – Nicole
  • “The day that I signed the special needs trust for my kids, I felt a huge weight lifted from my shoulders.” -JT
  • “Being a caregiver, whether for children with needs or parents with needs, is one of the hardest things that we can do as human beings.” – Nicole
  • “Understand that if you are a caregiver, you HAVE to take care of yourself!” – Nicole
  • “One in ten Americans has a rare disease.” – Nicole
  • “As a mother, I was like, I cannot die, this child needs me.” – Nicole
  • “Make sure, if you are a business owner, that you set up your business so it can run without you.” – Nicole
  • “When you have a really profound understanding of yourself it makes your business a lot easier.” – Nicole
  • “Innate impact is about being able to say, ‘Yes, I am great!’” – Nicole
  • “It’s about being powerful in a positive way.” – Nicole

Today I have the lovely Shari Teigman from the Creative Soul Lab. Creative Soul Lab is a podcast that I absolutely adore, I’ve been on it before and I listen to it regularly.

We talk about how our own beliefs can be the biggest obstacle to finding the success we want, the shame that comes from having not enough money AND too much, as well as how tied up we are emotionally to our own worth and finances.

As usual I got some tips for you!

Shari’s Tips

  1. Figure out where you are and how you got stuck there
  2. Curiosity and play are non negotiable for a fulfilled life
  3. Don’t hang out with people who bring you down and don’t get you
