What to Expect
Personal financial planning is much more personal than financial. That’s why Human-First AdvisorsTM begin with understanding you. Together, we’ll talk through a series of questions to organize your thoughts, ideas and the decisions you’re facing. Finally, before offering advice, we'll discuss how you feel about your situation and different choices. As fiduciaries and fee-only financial planners, we help you make decisions in your best interest.
Human-First Financial Guidance®
Guiding You Through 4 Questions:
What circumstances are you experiencing? What are the details of your situation, both personally and financially?
What brought you to this point? What’s your story? What actions or life events led to here?
What options are you considering? What questions are you struggling with? What decisions are on your mind?
Are you thinking clearly or feel confused? Are you energized by life or feeling fatigued? How you feel influences what you think. Understanding both are necessary as we begin to address your financial situation.
Determining Clear Steps Forward
Once we understand your situation and state of mind, we help you prioritize. Using our Guide, tasks and decisions are identified as Now (urgent and important), Soon (important but not urgent), or Later (maybe important in the future).
Bridging the Two Sides of Your Life
Through a Close Partnership

The right decision for one person may be the wrong decision for another, even when the financial details looks similar. No two people are the same, which is why our approach focuses on getting to know you and tying together your unique personal and financial needs.
