The Spark That Leads to an Entrepreneur with Lauren Zangardi Haynes

Episode 100…. 100 episodes, I can’t believe it!! When I first started Wine and Dime, I didn’t know how long it would last. And now that I’ve been doing it for a couple of years, I don’t know what I’d do without it! I’ve had incredible guests and great talks, and of course, great wine along the way. Thank you for all of your support over these 100 episodes, and here’s to 100 more! à votre santé!

In this episode of Wine and Dime I chat with someone I have a lot in common with, Lauren Zangardi Haynes. Lauren is the owner if Spark Financial Advisors. Lauren and I talk about starting our own female owned Fee Only Financial Planning Practice, where we are both passionate about helping our clients in any way that we can. We talk about some of the struggles along the way, and how we overcame those struggles to build a thriving business. I think this episode really shows the entrepreneurial spirit that is within us, and showcases the spirit that drives her.

With over 14 years in the financial services industry working for U.S. Trust (Bank of America’s Private Bank) and as a Fee-Only financial planner I’ve fielded a lot of questions. My favorite is, “How do I know I’m doing the right thing with my money?”

I get it. Most of us weren’t taught about personal finance in school or at home. Yet now you find yourself responsible for managing your financial future and frankly, it’s a little bewildering.

Building strategies for myself (and now for my clients) gives me the certainty I need to make crucial decisions about saving for retirement and college, reducing our taxes, and knowing where and how to invest our money. 

The best part of my job is getting to know what my clients cherish, collaboratively building a solid financial plan that supports your best life, and seeing it put into place. It is truly an honor to walk with my clients on their financial journey.

What’s your big dream?

Let’s talk about how to get there.

Epic Reserve is a rich blend of Finger Lakes Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Merlot.  While fermenting, we "rack and return" the wines -- called délestage in French -- to increase oxygenation and improve extraction of color, flavor and tannin.  The result is a wine of distinction and depth with ripe berry notes that pairs beautifully with juicy meats like steaks, pork roasts or chops, pasta with white or red sauces, and other hearty dishes.  Serve at cool room temperature (60-65 F).  Bring a bottle to dinner with friends!
