AdvisorHub determined the 2026 Advisors to Watch ranking, published in Mid-June 2026, based on nominations evaluating practice metrics and data submitted for the 2024 and 2025 calendar years. Nominees were evaluated across a vast pool of nationwide candidates on a 100-point scale measuring scale (relative size of assets, production, and quality of service), year-over-year practice growth, and professionalism (regulatory record, community involvement, and team makeup). To be considered, advisors were required to have a minimum of 7 years of industry experience, at least $150 million in assets under management (AUM), a clean regulatory record, and a minimum of 2 years of tenure in good standing at their current firm. Selected advisors were grouped into specific subcategories (such as RIAs, Solo Practitioners, and assets over or under $1 Billion) for comparison purposes. The ranking may not be representative of any one client’s experience, is not an endorsement, and is not related to the quality of investment advice or indicative of future performance. Neither SageSpring Wealth Partners nor any of its Financial Advisors paid a fee to AdvisorHub in exchange for application, inclusion, or use of this rating/award.

Reflecting on a wonderful Men of Valor Ministry Annual Breakfast this morning—our team had the opportunity to hear from opening speaker, TN Governor Bill Lee, celebrate the program’s impact, listen to remarks from our very own Founder/President & MOV Board Chairman Jeff Dobyns and enjoy a surprise performance by Jelly Roll.

In a state where roughly 3 in 10 individuals return to prison within three years, programs like Men of Valor are quietly changing that story—seeing recidivism rates drop to around 10–15% for the men who fully engage.

As Jeff shared in closing:

“A young boy and his dad are checking out at the hardware store. And the son asks to buy one of the flashlights on sale by the counter. When his dad says, “Sure,” the boy immediately turns the light on, but his father could see his son’s disappointment.

He said, “Son, that flashlight's not broken. It's just light in here. Flashlights are made for the dark.”

The son replied with great enthusiasm: “Well then, Daddy, let's go find some darkness.””

In a few words, what does being a “Trailblazer” mean to you, and how did your path into wealth management begin? To me, being a trailblazer means creating your own path when there isn’t a clear roadmap, and then helping light the way for others who follow. Before entering wealth management, I ...
