Kenwyck Capital

As the daughter of a banker, I learned early on that if I wanted something, I had to earn it. I rolled my dad’s spare change for a 10% cut and birthday presents were stock certificates … not exactly on my wish list. At 16, I was already investing in the stock market and experiencing the sense of freedom and independence that comes when you understand your money. With this knowledge, I was paving the way to live life on my terms. This was so intoxicating I became a financial advisor to share my passion with others. As a financial advisor, I quickly learned that most women did not share my love of investing. In fact, many felt intimidated, guilty, and uncomfortable with their lack of knowledge, yet they yearn for financial independence. That’s why my true purpose as a financial advisor is to create an environment where women (and those who love them) feel heard, where they are encouraged and supported to express their fears and concerns without judgement. My unique brilliance is creating a positive wealth management experience, so they become more engaged in the conversation, while building the knowledge and confidence they need to live life on their terms.

In John 16:33 Christ has stated: “I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world, you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” Financial troubles will find us all. Uncertainty. Confusion about your financial future. The burden of debt. Challenges brought on by unexpected life events. The increasing costs of raising children. Saving and investing concerns. Retirement questions. And on, and on…troubles. Not knowing where to turn for simple, honest help is a concern of many folks. As Christians, we are all led by Christ to serve and to place the needs of others above our own. As a financial fiduciary, Greenway Financial Planning is bound to place the best interest of our clients ahead of our own interests. If you need some help, please reach out, and let’s start a conversation.

Sonas Financial Planning

I’ve spent two decades in an industry that doesn’t always make it easy to know who to trust. Hidden fees, half-answers, and vague promises aren’t good enough. That’s why everything we do is transparent—how we charge, how we plan, how we execute. You should never wonder what’s happening with your money. It shouldn’t feel so stuffy. It should be personal. It’s a collaboration. It’s sharing dreams and working together to find ways to see them come true. I started Sonas FP to help individuals and families like you understand how a healthy relationship with your money can lead to a lifetime of financial peace, wellness, and freedom. Sonas Financial Planning is owned and operated by Bradley Hilton, a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™, MBA, and Tax Planning Certified Professional® with over 16 years of experience as the sole financial advisor to more than 110 clients throughout the U.S., including dentists, small business owners, millionaires next door, and top executives at Fortune 500 companies. We’re constantly asking ourselves how we can do more and make a greater impact – and that is part of the reason Sonas Financial Planning was launched. Every good idea starts with a problem. Here was ours: Quality retirement planning and investment management can be expensive for clients under the traditional asset under management (AUM) fee structure. Also, many people fear working with a financial advisor because of either the high fees or the reputation that advisors earn commissions and will sell you products you don’t need. And finally, many wealth management firms do not emphasize financial planning or deliver data-driven financial roadmaps to guide clients. We take a people-centered approach. Our process begins with a free Zoom call so we can get to know one another and learn about your needs. There is no cost and no pressure to move forward. If we are not a good fit for each other, we will let you know upfront and try to recommend an alternative. If you are ready to worry less and live happily, schedule a free consultation by calling 404-545-5368 or email bradley@sonasfp.com.
