In this heartfelt and perspective-shifting conversation, Amy Sylvis sits down with financial planner and former global CFO Jay Ding to explore how abundance is created through awareness, intention, and courageous decision-making. From his upbringing in Taiwan to arriving in rural Missouri as a teen exchange student, from climbing the corporate banking ladder to intentionally pivoting into a meaningful second-half career, Jay’s story is a masterclass in choosing alignment over expectation. Together, Amy and Jay unpack the difference between financial planning and financial sales, how compensation models shape advice, the power of reaching out, and why abundance begins with self-awareness. Jay also shares a touching look at fatherhood, intentional living, and his annual “life audit” practice. This is a conversation full of wisdom, warmth, and actionable clarity for anyone wanting to build both wealth and a meaningful life. Connect with Jay Ding:[email protected]://www.linkedin.com/in/jaywding/Connect with Amy Sylvis:https://www.linkedin.com/in/amysylvis/Contact Us:https://www.sylviscapital.comhttps://www.sylviscapital.com/webinar00:00 Introducing Jay Ding: A Journey from Taiwan to the US03:02 Jay's Career Path: From Banking to CFO04:02 A New Beginning: Discovering Abundance During COVID09:42 The Transition: From Corporate to Entrepreneurship14:52 The Philosophy of Financial Planning17:42 Client Relationship Models18:00 Financial Planning Fees and Fiduciary Duty19:15 Financial Advisor vs. Financial Planner19:50 Multiple Streams of Income20:04 Real Estate Investment Webinar20:51 Understanding Financial Incentives22:18 Personal Financial Engineering28:46 Practicing Abundance31:23 Final Thoughts on Abundance
