Advisor Talk with Frank LaRosa

Key questions answered in this episode: What does it mean when financial advisors choose not to decide? Choosing to stay put - without evaluating alternatives - is still an active decision, often driven by comfort, fear, or overwhelm rather than strategy. Why do advisors delay firm transitions even when they’re unhappy? Two major factors show up repeatedly: the path of least resistance and paralysis by analysis. Both create inertia that keeps advisors stuck. Is transitioning firms as risky as advisors think? Modern transitions are more automated, efficient, and client-friendly than ever. The perceived risk is often outdated. How does too much information stop advisors from moving forward? Without a filter, advisors get overwhelmed by competing offers, recruiters, and platforms - leading many to shut down instead of decide. Why should advisors evaluate their firm regularly - even if they’re not planning to move? Because you can’t know what you’re saying no to unless you understand what options actually exist. If you’re a financial advisor who feels frustrated, stuck, or unsure whether staying put is truly the right move, this episode offers clarity - not pressure - to help you think through your next step. For many advisors, simply understanding what’s available is enough to break decision fatigue and regain momentum.
