About

Westward Planning Group serves individuals, families and small businesses, and states an explicit willingness to work with people who feel left out of the financial services conversation. The firm provides comprehensive financial planning and both discretionary and non‑discretionary portfolio management, and it also conducts a separate consulting practice advising employers on self‑funded health plans.

The advisor follows an asset‑allocation based approach that emphasizes cost control and market participation, favoring index mutual funds and ETFs and regular quarterly reviews following a multi‑meeting onboarding process with access to an online account aggregation portal. Westward Planning Group may recommend a sub‑advisor, First Affirmative Financial Network, for certain managed strategies and impact‑focused preferences while retaining ongoing monitoring responsibility.

Compared with many independent solo advisers, the firm does not rely primarily on percentage‑of‑assets fees and instead uses an ongoing flat fee structure for planning and investment services. The firm’s profile is also notable for its non‑investment affiliations and activities: the principal earns per‑participant consulting fees and legacy renewal commissions related to self‑funded health plans (he no longer holds an active insurance license as of March 2026), and the firm offers educational seminars to groups including college and professional athletes, sometimes on a pro‑bono basis.

We'll help you think it through—whether you ultimately need an advisor or not. Warmer helps you compare advisors clearly, so you can choose with confidence.

Find your advisor

For advisor listings, we rely on sources including public filings and data provided by advisors, and we cannot guarantee that all information is current or accurate. Advisors are independent and may not have reviewed or updated this information. Please review an advisor’s Form ADV and do your own diligence before deciding whether to work with them.

Advisor matching and introductions are provided by FinanceHQ LLC (“FHQ”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Warmer and an SEC-registered investment advisor. We receive compensation from certain participating advisors for introductions or referrals. This creates a conflict of interest because we have an incentive to recommend advisors who compensate us, including those who pay us more. You pay no fee to use our matching service, and advisor fees are not increased because of a referral or introduction. We do not review the ongoing performance of advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.

By using our service, you agree to our Terms of Service and Advisory Agreement, and acknowledge our Privacy Policy. Please review FHQ’s ADV Part 2A and Form CRS. Logos provided by Logo.dev
