Master Your Stress – Practical Tips to Reduce Stress in Business and Life
presented by Kerry Williams
As a society, we have come to accept stress as a fact of life. Stress levels in the U.S. are increasing dramatically and are taking a toll on our health, our happiness, our marriages, and our bank accounts. Living under constant stress seems inevitable in modern daily life, and we often blame our stress level on outside forces: a client, the system, the world. It can seem overwhelming and beyond our control. But it doesn’t have to be that way.
Understand the science behind stress and how your perspective and choices impact your stress level. Learn practical techniques to take control of your stress and tips to reduce, prevent and cope with stress.

Jason Russell
Edward Jones - Financial Advisor
Phone: 510-844-4772
eMail: jason.russell@edwardjones.com
I have 30 years of a diverse professional life in international markets. As a 'serial entrepreneur' I built successful small businesses which included bars and restaurants in Prague, an export and distribution business in India; a franchise of English language schools for children in Italy; and finally a real estate investment company in Florida.
Each chapter of my professional life presented its own challenges and opportunities and contributed in profound ways to my ability to assess situations, listen with great care, identify pain points and provide real, tailored solutions. As an Edward Jones financial advisor, I have found my calling.
PHILOSOPHY
I take the time to get a clear understanding of what's important to my clients, then use an established process to build personalized strategies to help achieve their goals. Finally, I partner with them throughout their lives to help keep them on track. Many of my clients seek to achieve their financial goals through investments which are in alignment with their ethics. To that ends, I work deeply with my clients to build portfolios suitable to their financial goals while incorporating ESG investing principles (Environmental, Social, and corporate Governance).
MY CLIENTELE
While I welcome the opportunity to meet with anyone who has questions and/or concerns about their financial life, and to seek mutual agreement if we are a 'good match' of client and advisor, I also focus on two major demographics:
--Early to Mid-Career Professionals seeking to design a 'work optional' lifestyle who may have irregular streams of income (small business owners, real estate agents/real estate investors, sales representatives, etc.)
--Late career households which are approaching or already living in retirement with concerns about maximizing their investments to live a full life in a tax efficient way, not outlive their money and leave a legacy for their loved ones and/or charitable causes important to them.
