September was a month of recognition, fresh insights, and community engagement for GDS Wealth Management. From national awards and media features to new blogs, podcasts, and even a special webinar designed to strengthen personal relationships, here’s a look at what made this month special.
We are proud to announce that GDS Wealth Management has been named to the 2025 SMU Cox Dallas 100™ Entrepreneur Awards, which celebrates the region’s most innovative and fastest-growing privately held companies.
Now in its 35th year, the Dallas 100™ highlights the entrepreneurial businesses powering North Texas’s economy, from diverse industries that represent the heartbeat of growth in our region.
This marks the first time GDS Wealth Management has earned this recognition, underscoring the firm’s strong momentum as we expand services for families and business owners across the Dallas–Fort Worth area and beyond.

This month, Glen Smith hosted a webinar with Dr. Gary Chapman, author of The 5 Love Languages — a book that has sold more than 20 million copies worldwide and has been translated into numerous languages.
Dr. Chapman shared his principles for building stronger, healthier relationships with the people closest to us. If you missed the live event, the recording is now available on our YouTube channel. We hope this session provides lasting value and encourages deeper connections in your personal and family life.
September was a month of both professional recognition and community impact. From the Dallas 100™ award to our sponsorships, educational content, and relationship focused webinar, we’re reminded that wealth management also involves supporting values and connections that matter most.
As we move into the fall season, our goal is to support clients in pursuing their financial goals while also fostering the connections and values that matter most. Thank you for walking this journey with us, we look forward to sharing more milestones, insights, and opportunities with you in the months ahead.
