Exhale Wealth

I spent over 10 years helping corporations, hedge funds and institutional investors squeeze every last dollar out of their investments before I finally asked myself: what is most important in life, and what's keeping me from getting there? So, what's important to me: spending time with my family, pursuing a career I'm passionate about and running a business that allows me to partner with like-minded individuals. My dad passed away at age 58 and I constantly remind myself that life is short, and I better not regret how I live it. I am now lucky enough to say I work in a field that brings me happiness and fosters my personal values. A perfectionist by nature and self-proclaimed finance/tax nerd, I genuinely love helping individuals simplify their financial lives so they too can focus on what's most important to them.

Torchlight Financial

Hello! I’m Laura Seymour, the founder of TorchLight Financial. I am a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ practitioner and truly enjoy working with clients transitioning into retirement or already retired. I’ve been working in the financial planning industry since 2007 and founded TorchLight in 2011. I have worked with hundreds of clients over the last 15 years to navigate the path to retirement as well as general financial considerations. It is my goal to use clear language versus “financial terms” to help people understand concepts and considerations related to financial choices. By offering comprehensive advice as well as ongoing investment management, I can truly know you and become a trusted partner in your decisions and journey. I grew up on a dairy farm in rural Minnesota (near Willmar) with loving parents who may not have had a lot of money but really stressed personal responsibility and integrity. I value authentic, genuine relationships with people and am grateful for clients who have trusted me to help them with their financial decisions. Travel and cycling are my non-work passions. Shannon, my life partner, and I traveled to Ireland (he’s 100% Irish!) in March 2023. We have experienced Maui, Puerto Vallarta, and Turks & Caicos. Up next: Europe in the fall (2024) and a Tour de France trip in 2025. Leading a weekly women’s cycling group and logging as many miles on my Bianchi Infinito as possible is one of my favorite summertime activities in Minnesota.

7th St. Financial

My mission is simple. To help my clients make smart financial decisions so they can be in the position to live the life they want. Every client is different and everyone has different dreams. Your unique combination of family, education, health, life experiences, and interests help shape you and what you want out of life. 7th Street Financial will help you on your unique path with custom advice and plans. As an advisor, I have several primary roles I need to perform for my clients. 1. Listen. My first objective is to truly listen to clients and hear what is important to them so we can work towards the correct objectives. 2. Be knowledgable. This is what you pay me for. To know the things you don't that will improve your financial position. 3. Be flexible. Throughout the course of our relationship, life will inevitably throw you a few curve balls. We have to be flexible and adapt to your new life circumstances and new goals. 4. Be accountable. One of the main things people want out of an advisor is someone to keep them on task forgetting the things done they need to do. The firm's tagline is Financial Planning for the 99%. I say this because I believe financial planning is not just for those that have over $5 million in assets. Many financial advisors require you to build up $500,000 before they will talk to you. I believe people need help to get to that mark and beyond. We all want to be able to do the things that bring joy to our lives. That is my ultimate goal for you. To help you make the financial moves that will put you in the position to do the things that bring
