Eric Cooper has spent his life building and leading. From starting his first business at 15 to founding the Sooner family of companies, he has always been driven by a singular purpose: helping people align their wealth with their values and create a life of clarity, impact, and freedom. For 14 years, Eric has navigated nearly every corner of the financial industry, banking, insurance, wealth management, business consulting, only to discover the same problem repeated everywhere: fragmented advice. Traditional firms prioritize scalability and products, leaving clients with disjointed strategies and blind spots that hold them back. Eric built Sooner Private Financial Council to change that. Acting as an integrated command center, his team brings together six essential disciplines: advanced tax planning, wealth management, income planning, risk management, estate and legal strategy, and business value acceleration. This unified approach helps purpose-driven clients break free from confusion, outgrow outdated teams, and achieve total command over their financial lives. Clients who once felt overwhelmed or uncertain experience a powerful shift: from reactive to proactive, from imposter syndrome to absolute confidence. This is the transformation Eric lives to create, turning wealth into a force that reflects who you are and what you stand for. A national champion public speaker, devoted husband, and father of five, Eric lives in New Hampshire, where he pursues wild places as a hunter, coaches youth basketball, and continues his lifelong study of leadership and building things that matter.
