About
Mindful Money Financial Counsel, LLC provides fee‑only financial planning and investment advisory consultation to individuals, families, and small business owners through hourly, fixed‑fee, and subscription engagements. It delivers written holistic financial plans and consultative investment advice but does not manage client assets, custody funds, or exercise trading authority.
The firm follows a three‑step planning process—initial assessment, a tailored written financial plan, and optional ongoing planning—and offers two ongoing options (an annual Private Client service and a monthly Wealth Builder subscription) for clients who want continued guidance. Investment recommendations emphasize passive asset allocation using index mutual funds and ETFs, while implementation and brokerage selection are left to the client.
Mindful Money is notable among solo independent advisers for regularly offering educational seminars and speaking engagements and for providing a subscription membership that includes a personal financial website with budgeting software, daily net‑worth tracking, and secure document storage. It operates without percentage‑of‑AUM billing and without custody or discretionary portfolio management, so clients receive advisory guidance rather than hands‑on asset management.

Not sure where to start?
We'll help you think it through — whether you ultimately need an advisor or not.
Warmer helps you compare advisors clearly — so you can choose with confidence.
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.
