In this episode of Take Pride in Retirement, I tackle one of the biggest mistakes I see retirees make—letting emotions drive their investment decisions. When the world feels chaotic and markets swing like a roller coaster, it’s human nature to react. But emotional investing is one of the most expensive mistakes you can make in retirement—especially for LGBTQ+ retirees, who often lack the traditional financial and family support systems others rely on.
I’ll show you exactly how a skilled advisor helps you stay disciplined, avoid costly mistakes, and build a retirement plan that’s structured, strategic, and built for the long haul.

Betrayal Season 5
Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same. The night before, she learned the unimaginable – that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskia’s discovery of her husband’s secret life and her fight to bring him to justice. Along the way, we expose a crime that is just coming to light. This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
