Featured alum: Nathan Astle
When Nathan Astle entered graduate school at Kansas State University, the goal was simple: earn a master’s in couple and family therapy. Little did he know he would find his true passion in financial therapy. “I really found financial therapy as a home in grad school,” Nathan recalls. By the end of the program, he knew without a doubt that this was the career path to follow.
