December 9, 2010, is the day my triplets were born, and the day I founded TAMMA. Fifteen years in, I can tell you neither plan I wrote that day survived. And that was never the goal.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="white-space:pre-wrap;" data-rte-preserve-empty="true">In this episode, I share the count of short runs I did not account for in my own life, walk through a composite client family who has been through five major transitions in five years, and unpack why senior professionals can be sophisticated about iterative planning at work and unsophisticated about it at home. The dissonance is not capability. It is that flexibility is a maintenance burden, and most plans have nobody carrying it.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="white-space:pre-wrap;" data-rte-preserve-empty="true">The action step this week takes fifteen minutes. Name the last three transitions your family went through in the past five years. Then ask, for each one, what financial decisions in your current plan still assume you are the person you were before. That is the work.</p><h3 style="white-space:pre-wrap;" data-rte-preserve-empty="true"><strong>ADDITIONAL RESOURCES YOU MAY LIKE</strong></h3></div> <style

December 9, 2010, is the day my triplets were born, and the day I founded TAMMA. Fifteen years in, I can tell you neither plan I wrote that day survived. And that was never the goal.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="white-space:pre-wrap;" data-rte-preserve-empty="true">In this episode, I share the count of short runs I did not account for in my own life, walk through a composite client family who has been through five major transitions in five years, and unpack why senior professionals can be sophisticated about iterative planning at work and unsophisticated about it at home. The dissonance is not capability. It is that flexibility is a maintenance burden, and most plans have nobody carrying it.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="white-space:pre-wrap;" data-rte-preserve-empty="true">The action step this week takes fifteen minutes. Name the last three transitions your family went through in the past five years. Then ask, for each one, what financial decisions in your current plan still assume you are the person you were before. That is the work.</p><h3 style="white-space:pre-wrap;" data-rte-preserve-empty="true"><strong>ADDITIONAL RESOURCES YOU MAY LIKE</strong></h3></div> <style
