When Life Changes,
Your Financial Plan Should Too


It’s not a matter of if you will experience a significant life change -  it’s when.

Retirement. The loss of a loved one. Divorce. The sale of a business. These transitions are emotional, complex and deeply personal.

During these seasons, you deserve more than someone who simply moves your money around. You need a partner who listens and walks beside you. Someone who helps you process emotions and evaluate options to create a plan that's best for you..

Purposeful Wealth Partners uses science-backed frameworks to guide you through life’s biggest transitions with clarity, confidence and compassion.

Legacy Vault

Every client receives access to their own secure Legacy Vault - a private, digital “fire safe” where you can safely store essential documents like passports, birth and marriage certificates, wills and financial records. Think of it as your “just in case” resource for your loved ones, ensuring they know exactly where to find what matters most.

Behind the scenes, I also work directly with your attorneys and CPAs to keep everything organized and seamless. If needed, I can even grant your accountant direct access to tax documents - saving you the hassle of coordinating it all yourself.

The Purposeful Wealth Partners Difference

"The one you always reach out to when you need sound, truthful advice"

“I wanted someone that will listen to me as well as educate me along the way. I also believe that men and women handle financial security and planning differently and for that reason, I knew I wanted to work with a female. Our first meeting was like talking with an old friend. You know the one you always reach out to when you need sound, truthful advice.”

"I would confidently recommend her"

"Preparing for retirement brings many important choices, and it's easy to feel uncertain. MaeLauren provides clear guidance, thoughtful direction and the reassurance that nothing is overlooked. She helps me stay focused on my long-term goals rather than getting lost in the details. I would confidently recommend her to anyone navigating a major transition."
