Moonshot Planning LLC

Hi, I'm Louis Guajardo. I’m the founder of Moonshot Planning, a financial planning firm built specifically for creators, freelancers, and self-employed professionals - the people traditional finance tends to overlook. My journey started when I saw firsthand how the industry dismissed talented creators who didn’t fit the usual model. I watched a young creator making more than many people twice her age, yet she had no retirement plan, no tax strategy, and no financial roadmap. When I asked how we could help her, I was told to just ignore her. That stuck with me. After passing my CFP® exam and launching my own firm, Brighter Days Planning, I realized I’d built something safe and predictable - like everyone else. But when that same creator came back, signed up, and started referring her friends after we built her plan, everything changed. I realized this wasn’t just a niche; this was the entire point. So I burned it down and rebuilt, and that’s how Moonshot Planning was born. Today, I’m committed to serving the creators, freelancers, and self-employed people that the rest of the industry has overlooked, helping them build personalized financial plans that actually fit their lives and careers. Outside of work, I stay active and creative. I train in jiu-jitsu and boxing, skateboard, draw, and listen to music, all of which help me stay balanced, focused, and energized both personally and professionally.

We'll help you think it through—whether you ultimately need an advisor or not. Warmer helps you compare advisors clearly, so you can choose with confidence.

Find your advisor

For advisor listings, we rely on sources including public filings and data provided by advisors, and we cannot guarantee that all information is current or accurate. Advisors are independent and may not have reviewed or updated this information. Please review an advisor’s Form ADV and do your own diligence before deciding whether to work with them.

Advisor matching and introductions are provided by FinanceHQ LLC (“FHQ”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Warmer and an SEC-registered investment advisor. We receive compensation from certain participating advisors for introductions or referrals. This creates a conflict of interest because we have an incentive to recommend advisors who compensate us, including those who pay us more. You pay no fee to use our matching service, and advisor fees are not increased because of a referral or introduction. We do not review the ongoing performance of advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.

By using our service, you agree to our Terms of Service and Advisory Agreement, and acknowledge our Privacy Policy. Please review FHQ’s ADV Part 2A and Form CRS. Logos provided by Logo.dev
