A Life Well Lived: A Physicians Guide to Wealth

Ep16: Financial Wellness 101: The Impact You Seek to Make

Episode Summary

Before you tackle spreadsheets, budgets, or tax hacks, you need one thing: a reason. In this episode, James Nutter shares the cornerstone to every successful financial journey—your why—and walks you through the “Impact Primer” to help you build a vision strong enough to carry you through.

Episode Notes

Building wealth isn’t just about numbers—it’s about purpose. In this solo episode, James Nutter kicks off a transformative series by sharing the exact process his clients go through when they join I AM Wealth: “Getting It Together Forever.”

But before diving into deductions or investment strategies, James walks you through the most important question of all: Why are you here?

Using a powerful exercise called the Impact Primer (yes, it spells out “IMPACT”), James helps you visualize your future, rediscover what truly drives you, and make a time commitment to your financial wellness journey.

You’ll reflect, journal, imagine, and maybe even tear up a bit. Because this episode isn’t about numbers—it’s about meaning.

Key Takeaways:

  1. Start With Why — No spreadsheet matters until you know what you’re fighting for.
     
  2. Vision > Vibes — Picture your dream life and work backward. That’s your roadmap.
     
  3. IMPACT Framework — Use imagination, meaning, purpose, abundance, contribution, and time commitment to fuel your journey.
     
  4. Commitment is a Muscle — It’s easy to start. The magic happens when you keep showing up.
