The "Her Life, Her Practice, Her Way" podcast—was created for female financial advisors who want more than just success on paper. It’s for those of us who care deeply about our clients, our families, and ourselves, and who are looking for real connection, support, and inspiration as we navigate the complexities of life and work.
What You’ll Find Here:
Stories of women building financial advisory practices on their own terms
Honest conversations about challenges, growth, and fulfillment
Practical insights from women who are redefining success
A supportive community of like-minded, exceptional female advisors
I believe that we do our best work—and live our best lives—when we honor our values, trust our instincts, and leverage our unique strengths.
This is a space where we can explore what that looks like together.
Whether you’re new to the profession, evolving your practice, or simply seeking a little more ease and joy in your day-to-day, you’re so welcome here.
Let’s build something meaningful—together.

What if stepping back is sometimes the best way to move forward?
In this episode, I talk with Bridget Borel, CFP®, founder of Clairwell Financial, (https://clairwellfp.com/) about the winding path that led her to financial planning, entrepreneurship, and a practice focused on helping women navigate divorce.
Bridget shares openly about a period of profound change in her own life—including divorce, the loss of her mother, and other personal challenges—and why she chose to step back before deciding what she wanted next. We talk about launching her own firm around age 50, the unexpected challenge that forced her to rethink her firm's name and brand, and how taking the time to really listen to the women she wanted to serve ultimately gave her greater clarity about the business she wanted to build.
We also explore the role therapy and personal growth have played in Bridget's life and work, including the idea that our ability to help others is connected to the work we're willing to do on ourselves.
Throughout our conversation, Bridget offers a powerful reminder that progress doesn't always mean pushing harder or moving faster. Sometimes stepping back gives us the clarity, healing, and self-knowledge we need to move forward in a way that is more intentional and more aligned with what we truly want.

Money Is a Mirror: Slowing Down, Trusting Yourself, and Finding Genuine Joy with Liz Hand
What can the way we earn, save, spend, and hold money reveal about ourselves?
In this season-opening episode, Tara talks with financial planner, coach, and author Liz Hand (https://www.lizhandcoaching.com/) about her new book, Money Is a Mirror (https://www.lizhandcoaching.com/money-is-a-mirror-book). Liz introduces us to “The Responsible Ones”—the dependable, conscientious people who take care of everyone around them, often without stopping to consider what they really need or want.
Together, Tara and Liz explore:
How responsibility can turn into overperforming
Why slowing down can help us hear ourselves more clearly
What it means to experience genuine joy
How intuition can guide our financial and life decisions
Why financial freedom is not always about having more money
The value of creating more spaciousness in our lives
Small experiments that can help us make choices from trust rather than fear
This thoughtful conversation invites us to consider not only what our money reveals about us, but also what might become possible if we gave ourselves permission to want something more.

What This First Season Taught Me
As Tara closes out the first season of Her Life, Her Practice, Her Way, she reflects on what these conversations have revealed—about the profession, about the women in it, and about herself.
Through powerful themes like mentorship, meaningful work, and the desire to build a life that feels aligned, Tara shares what stood out the most from her conversations with this inaugural season of female financial advisors.
She also speaks candidly about the quiet struggles many women face—juggling too much, navigating an industry that hasn’t always been built or welcoming for them, and questioning whether they belong.
This episode is both a reflection and an invitation—to think differently, to create more space, and to trust yourself in building a life and practice that truly fits.
Before taking a break, Tara shares what’s next, what she’s still figuring out, and why she believes this work—and this community—matters more than ever.
