About

Inspired Financial Planners is a virtual, fee-only financial planning firm in Gulfport, MS and Flat Rock, NC. We serve clients from Gen Z all the way through retirees. While we have clients in any stage of life, Tricia specializes in working with professionals with families, advising employer-sponsored retirement plans, and individuals that have inherited wealth.

Tricia earned her chops as an intern at a large brokerage firm, mutual funds specialist, paraplanner, portfolio manager, and retirement plan consultant, before partnering with Germaine Weldon in 2019 to co-found Inspired Financial Planners. She is a Certified Financial Planner™ practitioner, a Certified Public Accountant, a Certified Student Loan Professional, and a Ramsey Solutions Master Financial Coach. Her greatest passion is helping young families advance toward financial independence and meeting their life goals.

On the personal front, Tricia and her husband Nick find life balance by hiking, running, scuba diving, and chasing their toddlers. They welcomed their third daughter to the world in 2021.

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.
