In this episode, Libby sits down with transition expert Shelby to unpack the increasingly complex landscape of advisor independence. With more channels, platforms, and business models than ever before, many advisors feel the pull to explore new options — but don’t know where to start. Together, they walk through how to think strategically about change, avoid costly missteps, and design a transition that truly supports your long-term vision 🚀📊🤝

You’ll learn:

How to evaluate whether your current frustrations are simple nuisances or true deal breakers 🔍
The three critical “fit” factors every advisor must consider before making a move
What a successful transition really involves beyond just repapering accounts
Why client communication and experience can make or break your move
Who should be on your transition team to protect your business and your clients

If you’ve been quietly wondering whether you’re in the right place — or if there’s a better option out there — this conversation will give you clarity, structure, and confidence to explore what’s next. It’s a thoughtful, practical roadmap for any advisor considering a major career move.
