The Family Love Letter: Turning Financial Planning into an Act of Love with Jennifer Lee

In this empowering conversation, Dr. Felecia Froe sits down with Jennifer Lee, AIF®, AWMA®, founder of Modern Wealth and author of Squeeze the Juice: Live With Purpose, Then Leave a Legacy. With over 26 years of experience helping clients through divorce, loss, and retirement, Jennifer brings heart and strategy to the financial planning process. She shares why money is simply a tool, how to build trusted relationships with advisors before a crisis strikes, and why every family should write a “Love Letter,” a simple yet powerful way to communicate values and ensure peace of mind for loved ones.

 

This episode serves as a reminder that true wealth isn’t just about numbers; it’s about clarity, connection, and living a life that feels as good as it looks.
