I’m Shar-Né Warren, CFP®, CRPC®, the “excavator” behind Financial Excavation! You could say I’ve always been passionate about helping build more and achieve more. As a former interior design student, I wanted to help people build beautiful homes – and now I get to help them build beautiful lives. My financial story began early at 11 years old, when I witnessed our family lose our house just weeks before Christmas. I still remember the confusion, the stress, the pain, and the worry I felt and saw. From that young age, I’ve had a calling to be a positive difference maker in the lives of others. With over 15 years of experience in financial services, I’ve learned that the journey to financial well-being doesn’t happen overnight. It requires leaving your comfort zone, and it’s more challenging alone. I wanted to create Financial Excavation to help real people, imperfect people, who dream big and sometimes play small…until now! You know where you want to go, you just may not know how to get there. Financial Excavation isn’t another “by-the-numbers” firm. Our approach is more spiritually grounded. Inspired by Bible verse, Jeremiah 1:10, we’re here to help you tear down old beliefs and rebuild a rooted financial life. We know that taking that first step towards digging deep into past beliefs, clearing old patterns, and building a strong financial foundation isn’t easy. But together, we’ve got this! We are committed to helping YOU build the best financial future you can and uncover the beautiful treasure and life that you’ve always desired. Whether you are a new wealth individual, pre-retiree, in transition, or a person of color, we meet you where you are and guide you where you need to go. And we do it with a sprinkle of fun – yes, fun! – in the process.
