Aug 27, 2021

Taynia Vakapuna is a paraplanner with Everspire in Midvale, UT. Today she joins the show to discuss her journey going from a biology major to a paraplanner in a financial planning firm, including why she ended up not going through with a degree in the sciences and what led her to consider a change in direction.

Listen in as she talks about how the initiative she took to attend a financial planning conference changed the course of her career and what it was like trying to complete the program with three small children and a military spouse who deployed often. You'll learn what changes Taynia would like to see in the profession and the things she wishes she would have done differently.
