If you get a raise, or take a distribution on a huge stock, or win the lottery, the first thing you do is celebrate. Obviously. The next thing you do is ask yourself: what do I do now?

Plus, Nicole revisits her conversation with Brandi Glanville, a Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum who suspected her husband of financial infidelity during their divorce.

That's right: Lorilyn Wilson is our new favorite CPA who makes taxes *actually* kinda fun. Nicole holds nothing back and asks all the burning tax questions people are normally too scared to ask: How can I get the most back on my tax refund?

A financial planner is like a money coach that can help you meet your money goals. Let's be honest: we all could use that. Historically, financial planners have gotten a bad rap as inaccessible to the 99% and just plain intimidating— but, it doesn’t have to be that way. Today, Nicole will prove it. Nicole calls up Brent Weiss, a CFP®-certified financial planner and Head of Financial Wellness at Facet— a financial planning company that is truly changing the game. Nicole and Brent do a little client-financial planner role play to make your first conversation with a financial planner easier. Then, they dig into which questions you should ask a financial planner to make sure they're legit, what goals you should set, and how to measure success.
