Signature Talks

Keynotes drawn from the book

Every talk is tailored to the audience, and each one ends with something the room can act on the same week.

You Didn't Work This Hard to Get It Wrong

Financial success creates its own complexity — and unmanaged complexity becomes dangerous. Joshua walks audiences between the two ditches of senseless accumulation and frivolous consumption, and makes the case for the Radical Middle.

  • The three complexity traps that follow every financial win
  • Why more money often produces less clarity
  • A standard for making high-stakes decisions under pressure

The Clarity Snapshot™

Most people have never seen their entire financial life on a single page. This talk introduces the Four Cornerstones — Income, Financial Position, Assets, and Protection Planning — and what changes when overwhelm becomes a picture.

  • The four cornerstones of a complete financial picture
  • The gaps that hide when the picture stays scattered
  • A one-page exercise attendees can complete that week

Wealth With a Purpose

A talk about what wealth is actually for — purpose, generosity, and legacy — and how families and leaders build a financial life that reflects their values rather than their fears.

  • How to name what your wealth is for before strategy begins
  • What multigenerational stewardship looks like in practice
  • How generosity changes the way families make decisions

Equity, Exits, and Once-in-a-Lifetime Decisions

For executives and founders: the compensation and liquidity decisions that only come around once, and the costly patterns Joshua has watched repeat for nearly three decades.

  • The RSU, option, and deferred comp mistakes that cost the most
  • What to decide before a sale or IPO — not after
  • How to assemble and lead the right advisory team
