Mindful Wealth is an independent financial planning and investment advisory firm dedicated to helping individuals and families navigate financial complexity with clarity, confidence, and intention. We believe that financial planning is not simply about managing money; it is about helping people live meaningful lives aligned with their values, goals, and evolving circumstances. Money touches every aspect of life: career decisions, family relationships, health, geography, opportunity, and legacy. Yet traditional financial advice often focuses narrowly on investments or isolated transactions. At Mindful Wealth, we take a different approach. We view financial planning as an integrated, ongoing process that connects every financial decision to the broader story of a person’s life. Our work begins not with markets or products, but with people. We partner with clients during moments of transition, growth, uncertainty, and reinvention to help them make thoughtful financial decisions in an increasingly complex world.

Here’s the long version summed up in five bullets: 1) I started off in finance working at a regional bank, SunTrust, helping people with more transactional needs like opening home equity lines, loans, checking accounts, money market accounts, etc. 2) I found that I really enjoyed finance because it brought numbers to life, but I wanted to build deeper, lasting relationships with clients so I moved into wealth management / financial planning at Morgan Stanley (then Smith Barney) 3) I was recruited to move to Merrill Lynch/Bank of America as the world seemed to be falling apart. I thought I was moving to a more secure financial institution…ha! 4) As I watched what seemed to be the demise of modern finance and capitalism with it, I stumbled onto Biblical stewardship via Crown Financial and Financial Peace University 5) After seeing a different approach to personal finance, I started Metanoia Financial to provide Biblically-based financial planning and advice
