The Diamond Podcast for Financial Advisors

If you've ever thought about leaving your wirehouse, going independent, or just wondered what the other side looks like, Mindy Diamond has probably already recorded an episode about it. Mindy and her son Louis run Diamond Consultants, one of the most well-known recruiting firms in the advisor space, and they've turned that deep industry knowledge into a podcast that now has 300 episodes. Originally called Mindy Diamond on Independence, the show rebranded but kept its core focus: candid conversations about career transitions, breakaway stories, and the strategic decisions advisors face when they're thinking about their next move. The interview format typically runs 45 to 60 minutes, and the guests tend to be RIA founders, wirehouse veterans who made the jump, and fintech innovators reshaping how advisors do business. What makes the show especially useful is Mindy's insider perspective -- she's helped hundreds of advisors navigate transitions, so she asks the practical questions that matter: How did you handle your book? What surprised you? What would you do differently? Rated 4.5 stars from 98 reviews, listeners consistently say the podcast helped them think more clearly about their own career path. Even if you're not actively considering a move, the business strategy discussions are relevant to anyone building or growing a practice.
