Hi! I’m Natalie Slagle, CFP®. I co-founded EQUAL VOICES Wealth with my husband, Dan Slagle, CFP®. I specialize in guiding high-achieving couples who are taking retirement planning seriously and want a trusted partner to help coordinate the financial life they’ve worked hard to build. Many of the couples we serve have accumulated more wealth than their peers, often through disciplined saving, meaningful stock compensation, or an inheritance. They’re thoughtful, intentional, and committed to creating a life that reflects their values. Most importantly, they’re respectful, supportive partners who want to make decisions together with clarity rather than conflict. My role is to help you make the most of your opportunities, simplify complex financial decisions, and design a retirement path that feels confident and flexible. As a fee-only, fiduciary advisor, I provide unbiased guidance, proactive planning, and an ongoing partnership so you can enjoy life today while building toward the future you envision. If you’re looking for an advisor who understands the nuances of growing wealth and aligning your strategy with your life as a couple, I’d be delighted to support you. We offer two complimentary consultations to ensure a good fit. I look forward to meeting you soon. ***Typical Client*** Household income of $400,000 or more and/or +$1,000,000 of investable assets In a marriage built on mutual respect and ready to make financial decisions as a team ***Natalie's Awards and Recognitions*** 2025 Financial Advisor Magazine Young Advisor to Watch Winner (2025) InvestmentNews 40 Under 40 Winner (2023) XYPN Firm Of The Year (2020) Co-Host of the Money Dates podcast Media Mentions: New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and CNN
