I'm Marie Thomasson, CFP®, and I built Mothered to offer financial planning for women so that money supports your human experience instead of dictating it. My clients carry a lot of labels: wife, divorcee, widow, mother, daughter, or single. At Mothered, you’re more than any of them. Whether you’re planning for the next three generations or “just” yourself, we support your needs and desires fully, without judgment, and with the care you deserve. You’ve carried the weight financially and emotionally, whether you’re in the midst of figuring out the moving parts or in a place to stop and get organized. Let Mothered share the load by caring for your finances like a mother would. Mothered keeps a small client load to give each person depth of care and attention. My job is to collaborate with you to build a framework that nurtures your financial empowerment so that your will outshines the pull of fear. My clients often bring me problems that aren’t financial, and I organize a financial gameplan to dispel the fear at the root of the issue. Mothered’s services transmute your emotional responses to money so you can use it as the tool for the life you want: a life of art and culture, hotels with robes, travel, and care for your loved ones and community. Money gets to be a resource for connection and expression as well as freedom from want and security from fear. Wild, worldly matriarchs and childless cat ladies, please apply.

My name is James, founder of HiFi Planning. I’ve spent my entire career as a financial planner and feel quite passionately about the work we do. I’ve seen good financial advice make meaningful differences in peoples’ lives many times over. I’ve also seen the financial advice industry fail to adapt to the needs of today’s working professionals. HiFi Planning is an attempt to change that. I’ve built my career at the intersection of financial planning and equity compensation, and am now sharing that expertise in an Advice-Only, DIY-friendly format. If you’ve been looking for a financial planner but aren’t interested in investment management or ongoing fees, I’d love to have a chat. When I’m not at my computer, you can usually find me around Long Beach throwing the frisbee with my dog, playing guitar at venues around town, or trying to get a laugh out of my sweet and patient wife, Lillian.
