    What does wealth management look like when it’s truly built for business owners? In this episode of Path to Abundant Living, we sit down with Andree Mohr, President of Integrated Partners, to explore how the wealth management industry is evolving—and why traditional models often fall short for entrepreneurs. Andree shares her journey into the industry and the vision she’s now leading at Integrated, where the focus is on delivering a more coordinated, proactive, and deeply integrated experience for clients—especially business owners navigating complex financial decisions. At the center of the conversation is a powerful idea: business-owner transitions can’t be solved in silos.

    From Success to Significance: Rethinking the Exit (Feat: Micah Brandenburg & Elise Brandenburg, Legendary Exits)

    What does it really mean to exit your business and your identity? In this episode of Path to Abundant Living, we sit down with Micah Brandenburg and Elise Brandenburg of Legendary Exits to explore a topic that most business owners avoid until it’s too late: what happens after the exit. Micah Brandenburg is the founder of Legendary Exits, a business exit advisory firm based in Greenville, SC. A Certified Exit Planning Advisor (CEPA) and appointee to the SBA’s Thrive Program, Micah helps privately-held business owners maximize company valuations and execute successful ownership transitions. He is joined by his wife Elise Brandenburg, Head of Partnerships at Legendary Exits. Micah and Elise bring a unique perspective to exit planning—one that goes far beyond valuation and deal structure. Drawing on backgrounds in finance, entrepreneurship, and advisory, they challenge the traditional notion that selling your business is purely a financial transaction. Instead, they frame it as one of the most personal and defining transitions of an entrepreneur’s life. This conversation dives into the critical distinction between a life of success and a life of significance—and why that difference matters more than ever when planning your exit. From the emotional realities founders often underestimate, to the costly mistakes that can impact both quality of life and company value, this episode offers a new lens on what it means to truly prepare. You’ll also hear practical insights on when exit planning should begin, the most common misconceptions business owners have, and the key levers that can dramatically increase the value of a company before a sale. Whether you’re years away from an exit or already thinking about your next chapter, this episode will challenge you to think deeper, plan earlier, and define success on your own terms.

    Rebuilding Employer Healthcare from the Ground Up (Feat: Lee Lewis)

    Employer-sponsored healthcare covers more than 150 million Americans — yet costs continue to rise, outcomes remain inconsistent, and employee experience often falls short. In this episode of Path to Abundant Living, Matt Nordmann sits down with Lee Lewis, Chief Strategy Officer of the Health Transformation Alliance, to examine what’s fundamentally broken in employer healthcare — and what it would take to rebuild it from the ground up. Drawing from his experience advising Fortune 10 employers, launching two dozen health-benefit startups, and helping shape open-source employer benefits strategy through Health Rosetta, Lee offers a candid look at why decades of “cost containment” haven’t worked. The conversation explores misconceptions among CFOs, the realities of healthcare innovation, overhyped trends, and the structural forces driving costs beyond inflation. Matt and Lee also discuss the future: Will employer-sponsored healthcare still exist in 20 years? Where is meaningful disruption most likely to emerge? And how will AI and predictive analytics reshape benefits strategy? This episode challenges leaders to think beyond incremental savings and consider what true transformation requires.
