At HAWKINS, we believe success isn’t just measured by what happens at work—it’s about supporting our team through every stage and situation that life brings. That’s why we were proud to host Jed Reese from Strive Financial Planning for a recent Lunch & Learn focused on Major Life Events and Financial Planning.
Navigating Life’s Unexpected Turns
Life is full of big moments—some joyful, others challenging. During this informative session, Jed guided us through the financial considerations tied to major milestones such as marriage, the birth of a child, divorce, long-term care, and even the loss of a loved one. These are events that can often be unexpected, and they each come with their own set of financial implications.
Jed’s expertise helped us understand not just what to expect, but how to plan and make informed decisions when life changes course. By discussing practical strategies and sharing real-world examples, he empowered our team to feel more confident and prepared for whatever the future may bring. He provided a checklist for all these types of events for us to reference in the future.
A Commitment to Our People
At HAWKINS, our people are our greatest asset. We know that providing the right resources and tools—whether for professional growth or personal well-being—helps our employees thrive both inside and outside the office. Events like this Lunch & Learn are just one way we invest in the success and resilience of our team.
We’re grateful to Jed Reese and Strive Financial Planning for sharing their knowledge and helping us better understand how to navigate life’s major events with confidence.
