Money + Meaning

Too often, the consumer culture is the dominant voice in shaping our money habits. This can lead to unfortunate consequences like increased stress and diminished wellbeing. At Share Save Spend®, we help you deconstruct a variety of money issues, open new lines of communication and build new skills for the journey ahead. When your financial goals reflect your values—including the people and issues that are most important to you—they open a whole new world of possibilities.

Nathan participated in one of our recent Tolleson Family Education Events. We’ve been doing these twice-yearly events since 2008, and they have become very popular among clients and friends of our firm. Nathan kicked off this event by providing the audience with an overview of his financial wellbeing work with families of wealth. He then took part in a panel discussion with two young adults. One of them was a young, sixth generation member of 480-person family, and the other was a member of a much smaller family that had only recently sold a family business. Nathan did a great job with the introduction, and watching him interact with the audience and the two other panelists brought the topic to life. Many of the participants told us that this was the best program we’d EVER done! Thank you, Nathan!!

"Nathan understands how to cultivate wellbeing through financial education by focusing on both (in his words) the “transactional” and the “interactional”. He has done this work for many years and with many families, and this experience comes through in his advice and as a speaker. His solution-based approach provides parents and financial mentors with effective tools. It was easy to partner with Nathan to plan a Community Square gathering where our client community connected with his expertise and one another. He engages the crowd with stories and data, and is excellent at facilitating meaningful conversations."
