Take your performance to the Next Level

Scott A. McCord BIO:

For the last 16 years, I have spent my career educating clients on the importance of financial planning, focusing on the consistent process of building their long-term financial future. After years of building a successful practice, I felt I could do more. This internal drive led me to behavior finance, and what drives individuals to make the financial decisions they make, good and bad. The educator within was once again brought to life, thus I became certified as a Behavioral Financial Advisor to guide clients on their financial journey with an emphasis on their saving and investing behavior while maintaining integrity to their personal values. This then led me to focus on what is important to me and my family. Having two kids, Meyer, now 13, and Grady 10, only stoked the fire of mental coaching even more, one a rock climber, and visual artist performer, and the other, passionate about baseball and golf, lead me to dive into the mental side of sports, as I saw their anxiety and frustration hinder their “game day” performances. Along my self-educating journey and my love of the Chicago Cubs, them finally winning the World Series, I found Ken Ravizza. I thought, “If he can help the Cubs win the World Series then he must have that Midas touch!” Traveling down that path led me to Dr. Cohn and Peak Sports Performance and their Mental Game Coaching Professional certification program. My love of the mental side of life, not only in finance but in sports, focusing on the process of being the best you can be, regardless of the outcomes, was now tied all together. Not only has this journey improved my lifestyle, and grown my business exponentially, it has improved the relationships I have with all those I am involved with influencing: clients and kids alike! My dad would always say “Be the best YOU can be” I truly believe and trust that I am, and so can you and those you care about.
