* edit: reposted above with pics!* Look at these incredible nests which I’m so intrigued by teetering at the top of Arco da Vila in Faro, Portugal. I love them! It got me thinking - who puts the time in male or female? I had to look it up 😂 … it’s both ! Nice one Storks 🥰 Every year, storks return to the same nest, refurbishing what’s already there, and making it stronger and better with each season. The male might gather the sticks, but it’s the female who arranges them into a home that’s safe and secure. 🥲 Neither can do it alone—each depends on the other to get the job done. As a business owner, I know this well. I might have the vision, but it’s my incredible team that turns that vision into reality. They handle the details, refine our processes, and make sure that each year, we come back stronger and better than before. Just like those storks, we’re always building, improving, and ensuring that our business stays strong and stable. I couldn’t do it without them, and I wouldn’t want to! What I love most across both of my companies, is the rewarding sense of building on the strong foundations laid down, learning invaluable lessons along the way. Each experience adds a new layer of strength, helping me to grow, evolve, and go further. Big thanks to the white storks in Portugal for making me pause and reflect just now 🪺 Gillie Atkins Carol Pull @katekettlewell Nancy Dye & Beth! As well as all the incredible Med VAs of course! #teamwork #womaninbusiness #femalefounder #growth

For advisors the transition to an independent practice can be a daunting move. We get it because we’ve been there. Two feet at the edge of the diving board ready to make the leap to freedom but just the tiny bit fearful of the unknown. The ability to take the first leap can be INTENSE, but the rewards are endless! When we made the leap and jumpstarted Cedarwood, we had a clear vision of the independence that we wanted and the family that we wanted to build. We have seen the fulfillment that fearfully “leaving our feet” had brought us as advisors and more importantly as parents, spouses, partners and friends. Now that we are “in the pool”, we are excited to empower other advisors just like us to take that same leap!

A family legacy is more than just inheritance. It encompasses traditions, values, culture, and stories passed down from one generation to another. The Soriano Family is a testament to this, with 120 years of legacy that includes tangible assets like property and businesses, as well as intangible aspects like values and culture.

🚨 JANUARY IS ALREADY OVER! 🚨 Are you still committed to your goals? If you've fallen off the horse or your month did not go as you wanted, relax, you still have time to win the year.
