We bring on Angela Palacios, Partner and Chief Investment Officer at the Center for Financial Planning, to translate noisy headlines into steady, real-world steps for anyone rebuilding finances after a divorce. From interest rates and mortgages to taxes and risk, we focus on choices that protect your present and grow your future. We start by grounding the investment outlook in fundamentals. After a volatile stretch, both stocks and bonds showed surprising resilience, reminding us that corporate earnings, consumer strength, and employment drive long-term returns more than breaking news. We unpack how potential rate cuts may filter into mortgage costs and why timing a home decision is less important than building a runway of six to twenty-four months of cash. That buffer buys peace of mind and avoids panic selling. Next, we get practical with portfolio building blocks. Bonds offer scheduled income and lower volatility for mid-term needs, while stocks fuel long-term growth and protect purchasing power. We explain how to match money to time—now, soon, and later—so market dips don’t derail essential spending. We tackle common post-divorce questions: Should you liquidate investments to pay off the mortgage? What’s the tax impact of rebalancing after a strong year? How do you reset risk tolerance when your income and responsibilities change? If you’re ready to feel in control of your money, follow the show, share this episode with a friend who needs it, and leave a quick review telling us your top financial question post-divorce.

Post-Divorce Investing Strategy for 2026 with  Angela Palacios, CFP®, AIF®

<a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/2301773/open_sms">Send a text</a>Ever felt the surge of “I just want to be done” and almost signed away your future for a little quiet? We’ve been there with countless clients, and today we walk through how to turn that burnout into smarter, calmer decisions that protect your long-term peace. We talk strategy, not slogans: how to slow down without stalling, how to see numbers instead of noise, and how to finish wisely so you’re not paying for quick relief with decades of regret. We also unpack the house dilemma—the powerful urge to keep it at any cost. We break down the real math: maintenance, taxes, insurance, repairs, and the emotional premium we pay for “stability.” You’ll learn to compare scenarios like keeping the home, downsizing later, or setting a cash reserve, and how those choices change net worth and breathing room over time.  If you’re ready to trade panic for a plan—quantify tradeoffs, set pre-commitment rules, and keep your energy for the parts that truly matter—this conversation is for you.
