LIFE Aphasia Academy® Genevieve Richardson
About this episode

In this episode of the Listen for Life Aphasia podcast, host Genevieve Richardson talks with Glenda Molina, a wealth advisor from Austin, Texas, about the importance of financial planning for individuals affected by strokes and aphasia. Glenda shares her expertise in helping clients achieve financial stability and freedom after health crises.

Glenda discusses her approach to financial planning, which includes consolidating accounts, ensuring access to resources, and creating a clear financial roadmap. She emphasizes the importance of early financial planning, especially for those with progressive neurological conditions, and highlights the role of long-term care insurance and cash flow analysis in maintaining living arrangements and care costs.

The conversation also covers community resources for those who may not afford a wealth advisor, such as Foundation Communities in Austin, which provides financial coaching for low-income individuals. Glenda advocates for proactive financial planning throughout different life stages and encourages clients to enjoy life while planning for potential health risks.

The episode concludes with Glenda offering a 15-minute introductory call for those interested in exploring their financial options and expressing her dedication to community service.

Top Takeaways:

  • Financial planning is crucial for managing healthcare expenses after health crises.

  • Initial consultations involve reviewing bills, gathering financial statements, and ensuring account access through legal documents.

  • Early financial planning is essential for those with progressive neurological conditions.

  • Long-term care insurance and cash flow analysis are vital for maintaining living arrangements and care costs.

  • Community resources are available for those who may not afford a wealth advisor.

  • Financial strategies should adapt as individuals age, with a focus on comprehensive savings and enjoying life.
