What tax prep taught a financial advisor with Mary McDirmid

In this episode, Steven is joined by fellow Spokane native and tax pro turned financial advisor, Mary McDirmid. Mary has extensive experience both doing tax preparation and in her current role as a financial advisor. Mary shares what she learned and how she is a better financial planner because of the time she spent preparing taxes early in her career. Steven and Mary both discuss some of the things that can only be learned from getting your hands "dirty" and doing the hard work of preparing tax returns and how that knowledge can help all financial advisors. Mary's area of focus now is on helping families who are supporting loved ones with rare diseases and disabilities navigate the financial and emotional challenges that can bring (this is also a service she provides to other financial advisors).
