0:00.0 | Welcome to the Financial Advisor Success Podcast, where you go behind the scenes with financial planner, |
0:08.4 | speaker and consultant Michael Kitsis to hear stories of how leading financial advisors |
0:13.6 | navigated the inevitable challenges that arise on the path to success and get insight from leading |
0:19.2 | industry consultants about how to break through to the |
0:22.0 | next level in your advisory business. And now here's your host, Michael Kitsis. Welcome, everyone. |
0:29.3 | Welcome to the 24th episode of the Financial Advisor Success Podcast. My guest on today's podcast is |
