This week, Tim Regan is joined by guest host Kaitlyn Hedger, Associate Wealth Partner at PrairieView Wealth & Tax Partners and lead of the new Financial Kickstart Program. Together, they explore the unique financial planning needs of early career professionals and explain why financial guidance shouldn’t wait until you’re “rich.”

In this episode, Kaitlyn outlines how the Financial Kickstart Program is designed to support individuals who may be new to the workforce or navigating job changes, offering step-by-step help with everything from understanding employee benefits and setting financial goals to creating a will and managing student loan debt. “We expect you to know nothing. And we’re going to start from base zero, and really walk through those things. It’s a safe place to ask questions,” Kaitlyn assures listeners.

Tim and Kaitlyn also discuss the importance of intentional planning early in your career, the Two Comma Life® mindset, and why having a supportive advisor can make all the difference as you make big decisions like buying a car or your first home. The Financial Kickstart Program’s transparent, approachable format includes access to resources, regular meetings, and professional connections to make estate planning less intimidating.

Tune in to learn how to bridge the gap between knowing what you should do and having a real plan – and partner – to help you do it.
