Susan Bradley, CFP®, CFT™, Founder of the Sudden Money® Institute (SMI), PPI Dean of Transitions

Like most transitions, the pandemic is lasting longer than we initially thought and it is bringing challenges that are different than the ones we faced before. The Great Pause, a reframe term for the pandemic, is like all pauses, it will eventually end. You can choose to just wait it out and see what happens next, or you can choose to prepare your clients for some big and possibly permanent adjustments; many they could not have imagined even one year ago. In this session, we consider processes for addressing the human dynamics of helping clients see forward rather than waiting to go back to the way life used to be.

Ross Ellenhorn, LICSW, PhD, Owner/CEO, Ellenhorn, LLC

Dr. Ross Ellenhorn and a team at Rutgers University studied the concept of Fear of Hope, developing a Fear of Hope Scale, showing that fear of hope is a valid variable in people’s lives. In his talk, he discusses this research, the theories behind it, and how they apply to understanding behaviors often associated with psychiatric issues. In fact, Ellenhorn is concerned that much of what we ascribe to issues of the brain have to do with people fearing hope. He will also discuss with participants how fear of hope is a helpful concept in legacy and family business planning. .
