About

Financial Excavation is a fee-only independent advisory firm that provides comprehensive financial planning to individuals and high-net-worth individuals through both ongoing and project-based engagements. Typical planning topics include business planning, cash flow and debt management, college savings, retirement planning, estate and tax planning, insurance reviews, and investment analysis.

The firm delivers tailored written financial plans and recommendations informed by fundamental analysis and modern portfolio theory, but does not provide discretionary investment management or custody of client assets; clients are responsible for implementing investment recommendations. Advisors work with clients to identify risk tolerance, time horizon, and goals, accommodate reasonable client-imposed restrictions, and perform periodic reviews or updates as part of ongoing engagements.

Noteworthy differences from many peers include an active educational offering—public and organizational seminars and the Financial Excavator workshops (virtual or in-person) on topics such as budgeting, debt management, investing basics, and retirement options—and an intentionally small, newly formed practice led by a sole principal with a limited client base. The firm is explicitly fee-only (no commissions or percentage-of-AUM fees), discloses an unrelated outside business activity, and maintains an online presence including LinkedIn and a YouTube channel.

Financial Excavation

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.

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.
