Financial advisors with heart, clarity, and purpose.

The Financial Boutique

Founded by Katie Young, a financial advisor with a passion for clarity and connection, our boutique practice is built on trust, empathy, and genuine care. We take the time to understand your story, simplify the complex, and guide you with strategies that reflect your goals—not someone else’s template.

Our Philosophy

We believe financial wellbeing is about more than numbers - it’s about feeling confident, supported, and in control of your future. We offer holistic, values-aligned advice that evolves with you, no matter your life stage. We’re here to make financial advice feel human. That means:

  • Listening first, advising second

  • Tailoring strategies to your life - not just your balance sheet

  • Supporting you through every season - from planting to harvesting

  • Creating space for clarity, confidence, and long-term wellbeing

  • Empowerment – Helping clients feel confident and in control of their financial future 

  • Clarity – Making complex financial concepts simple, actionable, and jargon-free 

  • Integrity – Offering advice that’s honest, transparent, and always in the client’s best interest 

  • Inclusivity – Creating a safe, respectful space for all clients, with a special focus on supporting women 

  • Connection – Building long-term relationships rooted in trust, care, and genuine understanding
