Episode 189: Creating Honest Conversations

Dan Karlsberg of Freedom Trail Wealth at Dove Mountain  

 “I’m always trying to better my clients’ experience and figure out how I can make that experience better. What value-add can I continue to give my clients?”

With dreams of being a sports agent, or the general manager of the Boston Red Sox, Dan Karlsberg’s journey into the financial services industry has been nothing short of unique. After spending 15 years in sales within the sports industry, Dan knew he was ready to take on a new career opportunity. Thanks to some advice from a couple of friends, he took the leap into financial services and soon found himself in the independent space. In 2017, he founded Freedom Trail Wealth at Dove Mountain, where he currently serves as president and specializes in working with pre- and post-retirees on retirement income planning strategies, legacy planning, and fully comprehensive long-term financial plans.

Tune into Episode 189: Creating Honest Conversations, as Dan joins Cambridge CEO Amy Webber to discuss:

  • His journey from the sports industry to financial services
  • How he made the decision to take the leap into the independent space
  • His involvement as a 2022 member of the Financial Services Institute’s Advocacy Circle of Excellence
