What if building wealth isn’t really about chasing the highest return but creating a structure that gives you more clarity, flexibility, and peace of mind throughout every stage of life?

In this episode of the Make Life Less Taxing Podcast, Daniel Hanzelka sits down with Dane Volek of Stacked Life Financial Strategies to explore a different way of thinking about cash flow, protection, liquidity, and long-term financial wellbeing.

Dane’s path into financial services is anything but traditional. After spending more than 15 years with Anchor Brewing Company, his lifelong interest in economics and financial systems eventually became a new calling: helping families think more intentionally about how the pieces of their financial lives work together.

You’ll hear why Dane believes structure begins with mindset, why accumulating assets is only one part of the journey, and how thoughtful planning can create greater confidence when life inevitably changes.
