Pathways Financial Planning

Kristen provides unbiased, comprehensive financial planning with expertise in budgeting, retirement planning, investment strategies, tax planning, and major life transitions, including divorce. Her background in education - spending a decade teaching middle school English in San Francisco and Maine- gives her a unique perspective on guiding career changers through financial transitions. She is particularly passionate about working with Childfree individuals, early retirees (and the FIRE community), those navigating divorce, and those forging non-traditional financial paths. She offers hourly financial advice for those seeking one-time guidance or a cost-effective option, divorce planning for clients managing the financial complexities of separation, and ongoing financial planning for those who want continuous support in achieving their goals. Whether you're changing careers, planning for retirement, building wealth, or facing complex financial decisions, Kristen provides knowledgeable, compassionate guidance to help you create a plan that aligns with your goals and values.

Warmer provides personalized recommendations and introductions to independent fiduciary advisors. We do not supervise advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.

Each advisor listed on our site is an independent fiduciary responsible for their own advice. Warmer may receive fees from advisors for participation or referrals; these fees are paid by advisors and do not affect the fees clients pay for advisory services.

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. Please review an advisor's Form ADV and do your own diligence before entering into an advisory relationship.
