What does independence really mean and why is financial freedom such a critical part of it?

Our latest story explores the powerful themes behind "We Do Declare: Women’s Voices on Independence," an oral history project from the Smithsonian American Women’s History Museum that highlights how generations of women have pursued economic power, opportunity, and self-determination.

Among the many remarkable voices in "We Do Declare" is Alexandra Armstrong, a long-standing leader in the financial advisory profession and the first-ever Lifetime Achievement Award winner from Invest in Others.

From access to capital and financial education to conversations about legacy and opportunity, financial empowerment has ripple effects that extend far beyond money alone.

At Invest in Others, we believe stories like these remind us that financial guidance is deeply human work and that helping people achieve greater independence can change lives and communities for generations.

Conversations about philanthropy and charitable giving are becoming an increasingly important part of the advisor-client relationship, and for good reason.

Today’s clients are looking for guidance that goes beyond investment performance and financial planning. They want to align their wealth with their values, create meaningful impact, and involve family members in conversations about legacy and purpose.

That’s why we’re excited to share this thoughtful article from Rethinking65, authored by Invest in Others Board member Thomas North,CFP, ChFC, CFS, exploring how the advisor’s role is evolving alongside clients’ giving priorities.

As charitable planning becomes more integrated into holistic wealth management, advisors have a unique opportunity to deepen relationships, build trust across generations, and help clients make informed, values-driven decisions about their giving strategies.

This is no longer a side conversation; it’s an essential part of understanding what matters most to clients and helping them define the impact they want to have on their communities and the world around them.

As AI continues to reshape the financial advice industry, one thing remains irreplaceable: trust.

In her latest Q&A thought leadership piece for Financial Advisor Magazine, Invest in Others Board Chair Meghan Peachey explores why charitable engagement and community involvement are becoming an even greater differentiator for financial advisors in an increasingly AI-driven world.

From volunteerism and board service to philanthropic leadership, advisors who give back demonstrate the human values clients continue to seek in trusted relationships. As technology advances, purpose, empathy, and authentic connection will matter more than ever.

We’re proud to see Meghan highlighting the power of philanthropy to strengthen both communities and advisor-client relationships.

We were excited to recently meet Emily Jaffe, CFP®, CDFA® at the Savvy Ladies Volunteer Summit, where she was recognized as one of three nominees for the organization’s "Volunteer of the Year Award" and joined the event’s opening panel discussion on the power of volunteerism.

Emily’s story is a wonderful example of how financial advisors can use their expertise to help people move from feeling overwhelmed to feeling empowered, especially when it comes to financial confidence and decision-making.

Through her volunteer work with Savvy Ladies, Emily is helping women gain access to guidance, support, and resources that can truly change lives.

At Invest in Others, we love highlighting advisor stories like Emily’s because they demonstrate the unique impact financial professionals can make in their communities beyond their day-to-day work.

National Mental Health Awareness Month takes place every May, serving as an important reminder to prioritize mental wellbeing, reduce stigma, and foster meaningful connection and support.

One powerful way to support mental health? Volunteering.
Our latest post explores the connection between volunteering and mental wellbeing, and how giving back can help reduce stress, create purpose, strengthen relationships, and positively impact both individuals and communities.

For financial advisors and professionals alike, volunteering can be a meaningful way to use your skills and compassion to make a difference while also supporting your own wellbeing.

At Invest in Others, we are proud to spotlight individuals who are creating impact through service and inspiring others to do the same.

We had the pleasure of meeting Jayeeta Choudhury, CFP®, CDFA® at the Savvy Ladies Volunteer Summit last week, and from the moment she shared her story, we knew it was one worth sharing.

Jayeeta's journey, from navigating her own first-generation experiences to helping others build confidence and financial empowerment, is a powerful reminder of the impact one person can make through service, mentorship, and community support.

At Invest in Others, we see this every day: financial advisors make incredible nonprofit volunteers because they bring empathy, problem-solving skills, strategic thinking, and a deep desire to help others build stronger futures. Whether serving on boards, mentoring individuals, teaching financial literacy, or helping organizations grow sustainably, advisors have the ability to create lasting change far beyond their day jobs.

Jayeeta’s story is inspiring not simply because of what she has accomplished, but because it shows how personal experiences can become a catalyst for helping others thrive.
We hope her story encourages more advisors to ask themselves: How can I use my own experiences, skills, and passions to make a difference in my community?
