The world is waking up. And it needs more wealth in the hands of conscious people. I'm Julia — The Conscious CFP. I'm a fee-only, fiduciary CFP® who works with conscious creators and purpose-driven professionals who have built real wealth through soul-aligned work and are ready for a financial advisor who finally understands them. You've done the inner work. You think in terms of alignment, energy, and intention — not just returns and risk tolerance. You have questions about whether the old financial tools and the old financial playbook still make sense in the rapidly shifting world we're entering. And you've never found an advisor who could hold that complexity alongside a comprehensive wealth strategy. That's exactly what I do. I combine rigorous financial planning and investment management with a consciousness-forward philosophy. My clients hold diverse portfolios — real estate, alternative assets, traditional investments — and I build strategies that are resilient, values-aligned, and built for where the world is actually going, not just where it's been. I grew up off the grid in rural Massachusetts, built a career inside JPMorgan and Morgan Stanley, and have spent years doing my own deep inner work alongside serious financial study. I know both worlds from the inside — and I built my business because I got tired of watching high-earning, deeply intentional people settle for advisors who only spoke half their language.
