About Us
Heather Caulkins has been in this industry since 2014. She started Evergreen Financial and Insurance Services in 2023. Heather has a determined, driven approach to helping you secure your financial future when saving for retirement.
One of the most prevalent fears amongst retirees is: Will I run out of money? Will I have enough to last? The first step to ensuring you have enough is to make a solid plan. Thankfully, there are options out there for retirees to protect their money, and still have a reasonable rate of return** on it. Basically, you can have both protection and reasonable** earnings. Protecting your principal from loss is the key to saving for retirement.
This is just one of the topics we cover in our ongoing education dinner seminars. We want you to feel confident about your money. Furthermore, we offer one-on-one meetings with people looking to get their retirement questions answered. Or if they need a second opinion about their financial situation.

We aim to provide safety, a reasonable rate of return,** and simplicity to clients.
These are, we believe, the main principles of a sound retirement strategy.

Safety
During your working years, you might have been okay with higher risks. But now, as you approach retirement, things have changed. If you've had money in the stock market, you've certainly seen some ups and downs. However, the older we get, the less we can handle this. If your retirement account takes a big hit during your golden years, you may not have time to recover from this loss. To help address this risk, we can show you options to keep your money safe, no matter what's happening in the stock market.

Reasonable Rate of Return**
How much money will you need in retirement? Earning a reasonable rate of return** on your money can help ensure you don't run out partway through retirement. Do you have to choose between keeping your money safe and earning reasonable returns? Thankfully, the answer is no. This benefit is possible to achieve with the right strategy. Some annuity or life insurance policies may allow you to protect your principal and still get a reasonable rate of return.**

Simplicity
Saving for retirement can seem complex. But it doesn't necessarily have to be. Retirees shouldn't have to spend time carefully watching their accounts and stressing over their success. Instead, you deserve a strategy that gives you confidence that it will work. This is what a straightforward retirement strategy can do for you. You can have safety, reasonable rates of return,** and straightforwardness in one retirement strategy.
