We wanted to share a quick update on Jesse, as he’s had great momentum lately around PopEnomics, in addtion to some exciting side quests you might enjoy learning about.
He’s been featured on several podcasts over the last few months, where he breaks down core ideas from the book in really approachable ways. Please watch or listen when you can!

PopEnomics also picked up a Reader Views Literary Award in the Business/Economics/Sales category, which was a nice recognition!

On top of that, Jesse’s written a couple of pieces for Kiplinger that expand on his experience and knowledge of the financial planning industry:

Also asked by Akron Community Foundation, Jesse recently shared some of his financial wisdom with their Institute for Emerging Philanthropists class.

We’ll keep sharing updates as things continue to build, but wanted to pass this along in the meantime. If you get a chance to check any of these out, we’d love to hear what you think.
As always, we appreciate you being part of the Impel journey.
Thank you!
