Sadly, it was not for 99% of my clients.




The Courtesy Plan bridges that gap, it covers the lifestyle you would want to live under any life changing or health event. It lays out personalized options for any circumstance that may arise in the 10 to 20 years people don’t plan for in retirement. Lets talk about why this plan is so important to add to your traditional Retirement plan.


Let’s give your retirement plan a Makeover to ensure you live YOUR life…YOUR way, no matter what!

i want to see my options

Close your eyes and think about what your retirement years will look like…

IS THAT WRITTEN INTO YOUR RETIREMENT PLAN?

What’s the first movie that began playing in your head? 

Were you traveling, playing golf, tennis? Crushing? grapes beneath your feet at a winery in Tuscany? Where were you living?

THE COURTESY PLAN® WILL BRIDGE THE GAP.

how

 most people do not have a plan for they want to live if; 

they are suddenly single or
 
 their current lifestyle is compromised due to health issues

It kept me awake at night as I was consistently working in crisis mode with frantic stressed-out families. I saw firsthand the ripple affect it had on families. Adult children flat out arguing in disagreement about what is best for their parent as a result of being forced to make major decisions while in REACTIVE mode.

Scrambling, not having time to perform any real due diligence or spending the months investigating the options and yet, having to make huge life decisions based on availability and sadly, many times settling for what is available which in planning may have been their LAST choice.  This doesn't have to be you!

Certified Senior Advisor®

Certified Senior Advisors (CSAs)® have supplemented their individual professional licenses, credentials, and education with knowledge about aging and working with older adults. It is recommended that you verify the validity of any professional’s credentials with whom you conduct business. Be sure you completely understand what those licenses, credentials, and education signify. The CSA certification alone does not imply expertise in financial, health, or social matters.

After years of watching people scramble over and over... I began to investigate to see if anyone or any program was in existence to help people prepare for unexpected and sudden lifestyle changes, I couldn’t find one.

A traditional Plan vs. TheCourtesy Plan®

I rolled up my sleeves and began to dive deep into becoming a Certified Senior Advisor. I studied senior care law, gained an in depth understanding of financial and estate planning and the challenges faced when planning for Senior Living and Long Term Care. 

I soon learned that Estate Planning, Wills, Trusts, Living Wills and Medical Directives do not cover WHERE or HOW you want to live. It touches on what you can afford... but it stops THERE. 

As a result of my background in psychology, my love for matchmaking in real estate and my dedication to the senior community, I quickly saw the gaps and how it could be filled. 

My Goal is to makeover traditional planning and add The Courtesy Plan, so your wishes for how and where you want to live, under any circumstances will already be laid out in a simple plan. Removing any burden or Reactive planning. Keeping your loved ones by your side, not running around trying to get an emergency education on senior living.

kind words

“We would never had made the move if Alex had not showed us exactly how to downsize, set us up with the right senior move managers and created a floorplan with our stuff in it for the new community.”  Mr. & Mrs. M

“We had to find a home health company fast for my mom.  Alex gave us the top 3 in order of recommendation.  My family is so grateful for her experience and advice and we hired the 1st one the list”!  Rebecca M.

“I had no idea what questions to ask, or the difference between home health, hospice or assisted living.  It was such a relief and comfort to have someone I know, and trust educate me on the language and option for senior living for my mom & dad."  Donna B.

“Alex was such an authority on the communities, I felt confident in her knowledge about their reputation and what they had to offer.”  -Ms. betty

This is not just a job for me...its personal, a calling. I will not rest until I can provide clarity and bring awareness to this void in retirement planning. I work alongside your financial and estate planners, I want to make sure my clients have an advocate that will guide them through these uncharted waters. I designed a plan that will address ALL the issues that are not covered in traditional retirement planning, thus creating the Courtesy Plan®.
