This is not an April Fools joke! You have about two weeks left to contribute to an IRA before the April 15 tax filing deadline. Don’t wait until the last minute. An IRA contribution can help: ✅ Lower your taxable income ✅ Boost retirement savings ✅ Keep your long‑term plan on track If you’re not sure which IRA makes sense or how much you can contribute, let’s take a look now while there’s still time. #TaxPlanning #RetirementPlanning #FinancialPlanning #Thrivent See thrivent.com/social for important disclosures.

Planting season is almost here! Farmers are getting busy in the fields, but that doesn’t mean planning has to wait. If you’ve got a little downtime while using auto‑steer, it’s a great time to review your accounts and make sure your life insurance coverage still fits your family and operation. I do reviews over the phone, so you don’t have to leave the tractor. Picture is of Lydia's daughter Ida a few years ago, relaxing on the farm — a good reminder of why this planning matters. If you’ve been meaning to check your coverage, let’s schedule a quick call. #FarmLife #Planting2026 #LifeInsurance #FarmFamilies #ProtectWhatMatters See thrivent.com/social for important disclosures.

Sunday Spotlight! Barb used an Action Team to help provide fresh food to families in need. "We were happy to be able to provide hamburger, milk, and fresh fruit and veggies to 30 families. I'm thankful to Thrivent for helping us do this. I also appreciate Main Street Market in Hanover for a discount, which allowed us to stretch it a little further." #livegenerously #hanoverks #midwestvalues #loveyourneighbor

🏀 March Madness is here—and both of Lydia's teams are still in! 🏀 Fun fact: Lydia is a proud alum of 🎓 University of Illinois Urbana‑Champaign — Bachelor’s in Ag Business & Farm and Financial Management 🎓 Purdue University — Master’s in Agricultural Economics What March Madness reminds us of every year is this: ✅ Championships aren’t won on one hot game ✅ They’re won with a clear plan, discipline, and adjustments over time That’s exactly how successful financial plans work, too. Markets will have ups and downs—but a long‑term strategy built around your goals is what keeps you in the game. If you’re not sure your financial game plan is built to last, now is a great time to review it. Go Illinois! Boiler Up! 🔶🔷 🚂 See thrivent.com/social for important disclosures.

It’s okay to be scared—and do it anyway. Watching Dietrich face his fears at the trampoline park was a good reminder. Confidence comes after we take the leap. If you’ve been putting off looking at your finances or retirement, you’re not alone—and it may not be as bad as you think. I’m here to walk through it with you.
