This Disclosure document is being offered to you by POM Investment Strategies, LLC, doing business as, Peace of Mind Wealth Management (“firm” or “POM”) about the investment advisory services we provide. It discloses information about our services and the way those services are made available to you, the client. We are an investment management Firm located in Raleigh, NC. POM was formed in November 2021. Radon Stancil is the Managing Member and sole owner of the firm. Radon Stancil is Chief Compliance Officer of the Firm. We are committed to helping clients build, manage, and preserve their wealth, and to provide guidance that helps clients to achieve their stated financial goals. We will offer an initial complimentary meeting upon our discretion; however, investment advisory services are initiated only after you and POM execute an Investment Management Agreement. INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT SERVICES We manage advisory accounts on a non-discretionary and discretionary basis. Once we determine a client’s profile, income need, and investment plan, we execute the day-to- day transactions with or without prior consent, depending on the client’s agreement with our firm. Account supervision is guided by the client’s written profile and investment plan. We primarily allocate client assets among various mutual funds, exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”), cash, and individual debt (bonds) and equity securities in accordance with their stated investment objectives. In some cases, our Firm does utilize pre-built portfolios for clients based on their risk tolerance and time horizon. In personal discussions with clients, we determine their objectives, time horizons, risk tolerance and liquidity and income needs. As appropriate, we also review their prior investment history, as well as family composition and background. Based on client needs, we develop the client’s personal profile and investment plan. We then create and manage the client’s investments based on that policy and plan. It is the client’s obligation to notify us immediately if circumstances have changed with respect to their goals and income needs. When managing client accounts through our firm’s investment management services, we most often manage a client’s Account in accordance with one or more investment models developed either internally by our Firm or developed externally by Model Managers. When client Accounts are managed using models, investment selections are based on the underlying model and we do not develop customized (or individualized) portfolio holdings. With our discretionary investment management relationship, our Firm will make changes to the portfolio, as we deem appropriate, to meet your financial objectives. We trade these portfolios based on the combination of our market views and your objectives, using our investment philosophy and strategies as described in Item 8 of this Brochure. We tailor our advisory services to meet the needs of our clients and seek to ensure that your portfolio is managed in a manner consistent with those needs and objectives. You will have the ability to leave standing instructions with us to refrain from investing in particular industries or invest in limited amounts of securities. You are advised and are expected to understand that our past performance is not a guarantee of future results. Certain market and economic risks exist that adversely affect an account’s performance. This could result in capital losses in your account. If a non-discretionary relationship is in place, calls will be placed to the client presenting the recommendation made including a rebalancing recommendation and only upon your authorization will any action be taken on your behalf. Our clients should note that being in a discretionary or non-discretionary account does not affect the management of the accounts. It is the decision of the client on what type account they elect to open with our Firm – a discretionary account without prior notification of investment trades or a non- discretionary account as described above. We will not enter into an investment adviser relationship with a prospective client whose investment objectives are considered incompatible with our investment philosophy or strategies or where the prospective client seeks to impose unduly restrictive investment guidelines. However, Clients have the ability to impose reasonable restrictions on the management of their accounts, including the ability to instruct the firm not to purchase certain securities. We do have limited authority to direct the Custodian to deduct our investment advisory fees from accounts, but only with the appropriate written authorization from clients. Clients may engage us to advise on certain investment products that are not maintained at our Firm’s recommended custodian, such as variable life insurance, annuity contracts, and assets held in employer sponsored retirement plans. Where appropriate, we provide advice about any type of held away account that is part of a client portfolio. You are advised and are expected to understand that our past performance is not a guarantee of future results. Certain market and economic risks exist that adversely affect an account’s performance. This could result in capital losses in your account. USE OF THIRD-PARTY MONEY MANAGERS If deemed appropriate, our Firm has the ability to utilize third party money mangers. The determination to use a particular model or models is based on each client’s individual investment goals, objectives and mandates. Our Firm has entered into an agreement with AE Wealth Management, LLC (“AEWM”), an SEC registered investment adviser, to provide asset management services that include:
• Third party model money managers
• Portfolio managers
• Strategists Through your Agreement with our Firm, clients authorize our Firm and AEWM discretion to select third party, non-affiliated investment managers (“Model Managers”) to design and manage model portfolios. Our Firm has access to AEWM’s reporting systems, client relationship management systems and workflow systems to assist clients to establish an advisory account. Due to this arrangement, AEWM will have access to client information, but AEWM will not serve as an investment advisor to our clients. Peace of Mind Wealth Management and AEWM are non-affiliated companies. AEWM charges our Firm an annual fee for each account administered by AEWM. The annual fee is paid from the portion of the management fee retained by us. Clients receive continuous investment advice based on investment objective, risk profile and time-horizon. While investment strategies and recommendations are tailored to the individual needs of each client, they consist of an asset allocation consistent as outlined in Item 8 of this Brochure. FINANCIAL PLANNING SERVICES We include financial planning services as part of our investment management engagement. However, if requested, we offer standalone financial planning services. Through the financial planning process, our team strives to engage our clients in conversations around the family’s goals, objectives, priorities, vision, and legacy – both for the near term as well as for future generations. With the unique goals and circumstances of each family

in mind, our team will offer financial planning ideas and strategies to address the client’s holistic financial picture, including estate, income tax (POM is not a tax services Firm and you should always consult a tax professional), charitable, cash flow, wealth transfer, and family legacy objectives. Our team partners with our client’s other advisors (CPAs, Enrolled Agents, Estate Attorneys, Insurance Brokers, etc.) to ensure a coordinated effort of all parties toward the client’s stated goals. Such services include various reports on specific goals and objectives or general investment and/or planning recommendations, guidance to outside assets, and periodic updates. Our specific services in preparing your plan may include: PERSONAL: We can review family records, budgeting, personal liability, estate information and financial goals. TAX & CASH FLOW: We can analyze the client's income tax and spending and planning for past, current and future years; then illustrate the impact of various investments on the client's current income tax and future tax liability. Keep in mind, POM is not a tax services Firm and clients should consult a tax professional for specific tax questions and advice. INVESTMENTS: We can analyze investment alternatives and their effect on the client's portfolio. INSURANCE: We can review existing policies to ensure proper coverage for life, health, disability, long-term care, liability, home and automobile. RETIREMENT: We can analyze current strategies and investment plans to help the client achieve his or her retirement goals. DEATH & DISABILITY: We can review the client's cash needs at death, income needs of surviving dependents, estate planning and disability income. ESTATE: Some personnel that are appropriately licensed can assist the client in assessing and developing long-term strategies, including as appropriate, living trusts, wills, review estate tax, powers of attorney, asset protection plans, nursing homes, Medicaid and elder law. A written evaluation of each client's initial situation is provided to the client. Our financial planning and consulting services do not involve implementing any transaction on your behalf or the active and ongoing monitoring or management of your investments or accounts. For standalone plans, Clients have the sole responsibility for determining whether to implement our financial planning and consulting recommendations. To the extent that the client would like to implement any of our investment recommendations through POM or retain us to actively monitor and manage your investments, the client must execute a separate written investment advisory services agreement with POM. If requested by the client, a written financial plan is presented to the client within three (3) months of the contract date, provided that all information needed to prepare the written financial plan has been accurately and promptly provided by the client. Estate Planning Services Our Firm offers Estate Planning guidance as part of our ongoing financial planning services to our clients that consists of education on estate planning topics and the collection of general information necessary to complete a new estate plan or review a current estate plan. For clients engaging in financial planning services with our firm, there is no separate fee for estate planning guidance. Our Firm uses the services of a third-party digital estate planning service for clients who need estate planning review, document creation or updates. This third party provider is not a law firm. Tax Planning Services Our Firm has partnered with CPA firms to provide tax planning advice and tax return filing as part of our financial planning services to our clients who have $1,000,000 or more in assets under management with our firm. For clients engaging in financial planning services with our firm, there is no separate fee for tax planning and filing of individual tax returns. Clients can directly engage the services of the CPA firm or another CPA firm for tax planning and filing. Participant Account Management (Discretionary) We use a third-party platform to facilitate management of held away assets such as defined contribution plan participant accounts, with discretion. The platform allows us to avoid being considered to have custody of Client funds since we do not have direct access to Client log-in credentials to affect trades. We are not affiliated with the platform in any way and receive no compensation from them for using their platform. A link will be provided to the Client allowing them to connect an account(s) to the platform. Once Client account(s) is connected to the platform, Adviser will review the current account allocations. When deemed necessary, Adviser will rebalance the account considering client investment goals and risk tolerance, and any change in allocations will consider current economic and market trends. The goal is to improve account performance over time, minimize loss during difficult markets, and manage internal fees that harm account performance. Client account(s) will be reviewed at least quarterly and allocation changes will be made as deemed necessary. DISCLOSURE REGARDING ROLLOVER RECOMMENDATIONS When a client or prospect leaves an employer, they typically have five options regarding their existing retirement plan: (i) leave the money in the former employer’s plan, if permitted; (ii) roll over the assets to the new employer’s plan, if one is available and rollovers are permitted; (iii) rollover to a brokerage (self-directed) Individual Retirement Account (“IRA”); (iv) roll over the assets to an advisory IRA; or (v) cash out the account value (which could, depending upon the client’s age, result in adverse tax consequences). Clients contemplating rolling over retirement funds to an IRA for us to manage are encouraged to first speak with their CPA or tax attorney. There is an inherent financial incentive for your IAR to recommend that you roll over your assets into one or more accounts, because the enrollment will generate compensation based on the increase in your IAR’s total assets under management. We address these financial compensation conflicts by including the disclosure of the conflicts in this brochure and by requiring your IAR to recommend investment advisory programs, investment securities, and services that are in the best interest of each client based upon the client’s investment objectives, risk tolerance, financial situation, and cost. As fiduciaries of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, we have to act in your best interest and not put our interest ahead of yours. At the same time, the way POM makes money creates some conflicts with your interests. Clients are under no obligation, contractually or otherwise, to complete the rollover. Furthermore, if the client does complete the rollover, the client is under no obligation to have the assets in an account managed by us. WRAP FEE PROGRAM POM does not offer a Wrap Fee Program, a wrap fee program (i.e., an arrangement where brokerage commissions and transaction costs are absorbed by the Firm). ASSETS As of December 31, 2023, POM has $156,296,371 of discretionary assets under management and $13,012,645 of non-discretionary assets under management.
