In this episode of The Blueprint, hosts Deshawn Peterson and Mike Zarrelli sit down with Paul Gaudio, CFP®, a client advisor at Crestwood Advisors and NexGen Chair of FPA New England.Paul opens up about his early skepticism toward designations like the CFP®, how industry involvement shaped his career, and why taking out the trash at his first job helped him stand out. He shares reflections from FPA's Gathering, discusses the power of mentorship, and explores how staying “comfortably uncomfortable” fuels growth.Plus, Paul talks about running marathons, prioritizing wellness, and building authentic connections in an industry that often defaults to networking over drinks.Whether you're a student, a new planner, or someone looking to lead with purpose, Paul’s story is a reminder to stay curious, stay committed, and keep running toward the next big thing.
