The Flourish Feed Podcast
A series of curiosity driven deep dives into the nature of flourishing through wealth. If you have already built the financial plan, the question underneath it is the harder one: what are the next thirty years actually for? The Flourish Feed goes after that question the way a wealth advisor would, using the science of attention, longevity and human connection to work out what the money is actually for. Gillian Stovel Rivers, MA, CFP®, CEA, is a Senior Wealth Advisor with CI Assante Wealth Management Ltd. who has advised Canadian families for over twenty years. Each week she sits down with one coach, researcher or practitioner and tests what they know against what she sees in practice. Guests have included Steven Kotler on flow and adaptive flexibility, and Dr. Jon Beale on measuring flourishing. Wealth here means four things you invest, not one: Time, Energy, Money, and Attention. Made for financially independent women and power couples who want a deep personal understanding of wealth and how to enjoy it at every stage of life. Know Thy Wealth, Know Thyself. This program was prepared by Gillian Stovel Rivers who is a Senior Wealth Advisor with CI Assante Wealth Management.
