 The Strategic Shift: Thriving in the Post–Broker-Dealer Era

The wealth management world is facing the biggest transformation in decades — and most advisors feel it long before they talk about it. Mergers. Payout cuts. Compliance bottlenecks. Shrinking product shelves. Rising tech fees.

These aren’t random frustrations…
They’re signals.

In the final episode of our Caught in the Shuffle series, host Jonathan Andrews and Your RIA Mentor, Ray Gettins, break down the truth behind the shift reshaping the industry while revealing why early movers will define the next decade of financial advice.

You’ll discover:
  • Why payout compression isn’t the real problem (and what is)
  • How micro-shifts inside broker-dealers trigger macro-level advisor consequences
  • The hidden cost of staying put and how it compounds over time
  • The A·B·C Framework (Assess · Break Away · Create) that simplifies the entire independence journey
  • The outdated myth about losing annuity and insurance business when going RIA
  • What thriving truly looks like in the era of independence
  • The RIA Tipping Point and why it’s closer than most advisors realize
Packed with real advisor stories, strategic insights, and the hard truths most firms won’t tell you, this episode gives you the clarity, confidence, and roadmap to navigate the industry’s biggest realignment.

Whether you’re already exploring independence or still inside a broker-dealer feeling the pressure rise, this episode will change how you see your future.

This isn’t the end of an era, it’s the beginning of one.

And the advisors who move with intention… will lead it!
