[family]

So as I'm starting to wind down my time here at MFP, I'm having all these really hard conversations with clients about my leaving MFP. We have to do it in a graceful ways so as to model what it's like for a client to also transition out of MFP when they age out at 25.

.....

Client: Where's Dave?

Me: Dave's out on vacation.

Client: Oh, ok so does that mean you're next?

Me: No, actually, Dave is gone this week then next week is our last week at MFP.

Client: Oh really?

Me:Yea, time flies huh? It's already been a year!

Client: Well, I suppose we all need to fly the coop at some point. I'm flying next month.

Me: Oh yea? Where are you headed?

Client: Well, I turn 25, so...

Me: Oh, really? Dang.

Client: Yea, well, I'll still come back once and a while. At least I've got a job and I'm saving up

money. It will certainly help aging out of here.

Me: Yup. That's awesome! Good for you! Besides, with that, you'll get to a point where you won't need us anymore.

Client: Well, you always need your family. You know? This [conversation] is always needed...

Me: You know we're always here for that.
