Let’s be real, market swings can feel overwhelming. And with everything going on in the world, it’s totally normal to feel a little unsure about your financial plan.
That’s exactly why we hosted our recent webinar, Financial Planning During Times of Volatility, with our community. We discussed what’s happening, why it feels the way it does, and how you can stay calm, focused, and in control—no matter what the market’s doing.
This webinar was hosted by Tyler Horn, our head of planning here at Origin, and a Certified Financial Planner. Tyler works with all of our departments to ensure that our products and services are always aligned with financial planning best practices and are in your best interest.

Here’s What We Covered
Why Volatility Feels So Personal
Even if it’s not your first market dip, it still hits differently each time. We talked about the emotions that come up—like fear and panic—and why those feelings are completely valid (but not always helpful when making financial decisions).
“It feels different every time, but it’s not new.”
The Role of a Plan
We shared how having a financial plan in place helps take the emotion out of decision-making. When you know your numbers, have a backup plan, and are clear on your goals, you can stay grounded—even when headlines get loud.
