Become more human.
If you’re feeling threatened by artificial intelligence, the answer is not to race it.
The answer is to become more human.
The Society of Advice is where financial advisors gather each month to practice the craft that can’t be automated.

"The Deep Craft of Excellence"
A Conversation with Olympic Silver Medalist Haley Batten
Â
This month, we’re talking with Haley Batten, Olympic silver medalist in women’s mountain biking at the 2024 Paris Games.
This conversation won't be not about motivation. We'll focus on about craft.
Haley did not arrive on the podium by accident. She arrived there through years of deliberate practice, obsessive attention to detail, and a deep respect for preparation.
She knows courses inch by inch.
She trains specific movements for hours.
She treats performance like a discipline.
As she puts it:Â
   “If I’m going to be the best bike racer in the world, this is a business. I’m the CEO of winning bike races for Haley Batten.”
If you give advice for a living, you know exactly what that means.
We’ll spend the first part of the session with Haley. Then we’ll stay and do what we always do. We’ll turn it back on ourselves and ask what excellence really requires in our work as financial advisors.
If you care about being excellent at the craft of advice, this conversation is for you.

When are the monthly workshops and Q&As with Carl?
Is it an investment or an expense?
Is this made for people at a specific point in their career? Or in a specific geographic location?
I don't give advice for a living or work directly with clients. Does that matter?
I run a team. Can I share this with them?
What are examples of past guests?
How do I cancel if I don’t want to continue?
How does this compare to a free study group?

Hosted and curated by Carl Richards.
The Society of Advice is a monthly, live conversation about what it actually takes to become a better advisor.
In an age of AI, becoming more human is the advantage. The deep wisdom you have as a financial planner has never been more valuable. This is where we practice communicating it clearly and helping clients experience it fully.
