We'll dive deep into the origins of Elements, the technology itself, and the ideas that inspired its creation.
Reese shares how his frustrations with the lack of realistic, standardized measurements for a client's financial health led him to define what he calls the client's 11 vital signs—an essential aspect that eventually led to the development of Elements.
