“I entered the wealth-management business in 2002, in the middle of a bear market. September 11th was fresh on our minds, and we had just come off 20 years of good times. Everything I was learning as an advisor was transaction-based. But I learned quickly that when markets and statements are down, those transactions become meaningless.”
“Through Danner’s passionate, positive leadership, the company is poised to keep clients informed, engaged, and empowered, even during a global crisis.”
It may not be top of mind, but deep down many of us are concerned about how we’ll be remembered by our peers and loved ones. In other words, we might ask:
“What will be my legacy?”
“We have learned financial advisors spend so much time focusing on the future of others, they don’t have the energy to strategize for their business or retirement. Many times, they don’t have a succession or continuity plan and we create a solution.”
Making an impact and creating a legacy is easy and much more fun if it’s based on whatever you’re passionate about. I know what makes me happy: serving people, planning and throwing events, and wine. When I tied them all together, the wine festival was born.

A CEO, entrepreneur, coach, consultant and LIFE Optimization specialist, he is the author of the Amazon best-selling book Freedom Street. He hosts the podcast The High Performance LIFE for high performers in any profession.
Although a high income is often the by-product of success, Scott encourages high performers to focus first on L.I.F.E. (an acronym representing love, impact, faith and energy), and understand that, from there, the money will follow. He believes we all can make a greater impact when these four critical components of our lives are focused on and in symmetry.
Fascinated with the way high performers overcome obstacles, Scott dives deep with his podcast guests to explore how they have achieved success and where they have struggled.
He leads highly personal, unscripted and candid conversations with ultra-performers to explore their unique mindset.
In 2016, Scott took his decades of industry experience and launched his own business in Chesapeake, Va., that has grown to more than 70 professionals in seven states.
His business has grown more than 2,000 percent in less than six years and continues to expand nationally.
He knows firsthand what it takes for entrepreneurs to serve their clients and make an impact in their communities while also ensuring their own freedom and happiness.
Scott is the cofounder of the Chesapeake Virginia Wine Festival, which has donated more than $2.5 million to
local charities.
He and his wife, Adrienne, a kindergarten teacher, have two teenaged sons.
