Shownotes

In this episode of *Bridging the Gap*, Matt Reiner sits down with Kristen Burke, a goal achievement coach who has dedicated over a decade to helping financial advisors excel through focused clarity and continuous progress. Kristen shares insights from her career coaching hundreds of advisors at a Fortune 200 firm, emphasizing the importance of structured goal-setting and creating spaces for team input to foster ownership and innovative ideas. Kristen discusses the benefits of having quarterly reflections and shorter, outcome-focused meetings that help advisors and teams stay aligned, ensuring steady progress toward ambitious, yet realistic, goals.

Kristen’s approach to work-life integration is shaped by her own journey, including her graduate work on the concept of balance for women in the workplace. Recognizing that a “perfect balance” can be unrealistic, Kristen encourages advisors to embrace flexible routines that honor both personal and professional priorities. For her, setting non-negotiable family times, such as taking Sundays off, creates a natural boundary that maintains her personal well-being amid a busy schedule. This approach not only allows advisors to recharge but also fosters stronger, more resilient connections with those closest to them.

Throughout the conversation, Matt and Kristen discuss living intentionally and designing one’s career around individual aspirations rather than external pressures. Kristen highlights that meaningful growth starts with self-reflection, often driven by thought-provoking questions that help uncover true desires. Through practices like meditation and gratitude journaling, Kristen has cultivated clarity in her goals, which she encourages advisors to incorporate as they refine their own visions. By integrating these practices, advisors can set a strong foundation for both personal and professional success, leading with purpose and living by design rather than default.
