Meet Your Host

Tom Wall, Ph.D.

I've spent 23 years helping advisors position whole life insurance with conviction.

Starting out as an award-winning advisor at Northwestern Mutual and MassMutual, my career took a turn toward home office sales leadership where I coached thousands of advisors nationwide.

After completing two masters degrees in business and finance, I turned my focus toward a PhD in retirement income planning with original research on whole life as a fixed income alternative under industry legends Wade Pfau, Michael Finke, and Stephen Parrish.

Now I speak weekly all over the country and run Whole Life Masterminds, a coaching program for 1,700+ advisors who specialize in protection-first planning.

This one-day Accelerator is where I give you the research, the positioning, and the exact language I've developed over two decades - in person, in one focused day.

FAQs

Common Questions Before You Register

Here are the questions advisors usually ask before they reserve their seat. If you have a different question, please reach out. We'll get you a clear answer.

Where exactly is the seminar held?
Penthouse 45 at 432 W 45th St, New York, NY 10036. Full check-in details will be sent to you by email after registration. Plan to arrive between 8:30 and 9:00 AM for coffee and check-in.
Is the ticket refundable?
Tickets to the Whole Life Accelerator are non-refundable. If something comes up, you may transfer your seat to another advisor by contacting us before the event.
What happens with the 30 days of WLMM access?
Your 30 days of full Whole Life Masterminds access begins on July 14, 2026 (event day). You'll get access to the entire training library, live coaching, and member community for 30 days. After that, you can choose to continue at the standard monthly rate or let it end.
How is this different from the WLMM training library?
The topics covered are the most impactful concepts inside the WLMM curriculum. The difference is you'll go through them in one focused day, in person, with Tom in the room walking through case examples and answering questions live. Many advisors find this format helps the material stick differently than going through it on their own.
Who is this seminar for?
Financial advisors who want to position whole life with greater confidence and at higher premium levels. It works whether you're a few years in or already producing at higher levels. The material is technical and practical, and the room will be advisors who take the work seriously.
Will there be a recording?
The seminar itself is in-person only. However, all the day's topics are covered in the WLMM training library, which you'll have access to as part of your registration.
