Welcome To Sustainable Wealth

For Values-Driven Business Owners & Professionals Who Refuse To Compromise

Financial advisors typically sell you financial products. I’m going to ask you a harder question: Is your wealth actually working for your values, or against them?

If you can’t answer that with confidence, you’re not alone.

You’ve built a business or career aligned with your values. You care about sustainability, social responsibility, and positive impact.

But here’s what I’ve discovered working with successful business owners and professionals like you: there’s often a massive disconnect between the values you live by and where your wealth is actually invested.

Financial Longevity

Richer Lifestyle

Enduring Legacy

The Challenge Many People Face

You’ve built a business or career aligned with your values. You care about sustainability and positive impact.

But when did you last check if your personal wealth actually reflects those same values?

Your pensions and investments may be unknowingly exposed to industries that openly conflict with what you stand for. Some “sustainable” options are wolves in sheep’s clothing – green labels slapped on standard funds.

Here’s what really concerns me: You may be paying a premium for investments that aren’t truly aligned with your values whilst seeking the financial returns you need.

But here’s what changes everything:

The 21x Discovery That Changes Everything

Research from Make My Money Matter, Aviva, and WWF-UK discovered something remarkable: Switching your pension from a standard fund to a sustainable fund delivers 21 times more carbon reduction than going vegetarian, avoiding all flights, AND switching to renewable energy COMBINED.

All those conscious choices you make daily? Your pension optimization could deliver 21x more environmental impact than all of them together.

But here’s the opportunity: If a simple pension switch can deliver 21x more impact than your lifestyle choices, imagine what’s possible when we optimize your entire wealth strategy around your values.

The first question is: Where do you sit on the Sustainable Investment Spectrum?

Why Me?

I work exclusively with committed individuals and business owners who want their wealth to reflect their values.

What My Clients Say

Real results:

– One client went from “I’ll work until I’m dead” to mortgage-free and retiring earlier than they ever imagined

– Another discovered their existing investments contradicted their business values – we aligned everything with their values while maintaining their financial objectives

– Multiple clients now sleep soundly knowing their wealth works FOR their values, not against them

(These are specific client experiences. It is not a guarantee of what all clients will experience given markets are outside anyone’s control. Past performance is not a guide to future returns)

How The Sustainable Wealth Framework™ Actually Works

Yes, some financial advisors work at the tip of the iceberg – the bit you can see above water.

They talk about products: pensions, ISAs, investments. It’s shallow and product-led.

I work differently.

Think of financial advice like an iceberg with three layers. Rather than stay at the surface, I dive much deeper to find where the real Sustainable Wealth happens.

Like a coconut, the real value is deep inside. I don’t focus on the outer shell – the products – I focus on what’s valuable inside: the outcomes you actually want to achieve.

The Three Outcomes That Matter

Nobody lies awake thinking about pensions and ISAs (well, maybe I do!). You’re more likely worrying about three fundamental questions:

  1. “What happens if I live too long?” – Will I outlive my money?
  2. “How do I optimize my resources to enrich my life?” – Am I making the most of what I have?
  3. “How do I shift from success to significance?” – What legacy am I creating?

It's About Outcomes Not Products

Financial Longevity – You’ll make wise decisions with confidence and execute your plan for Sustainable Wealth.

A Richer Lifestyle – You’ll enrich the life you deserve while staying true to your sustainable values. You’ll lead a life worth living.

An Enduring Legacy – It’s not just your money, it’s your family and the environment too. You’ll ease from financial success to true significance.

(A nod to my regulated industry  … clearly your outcome needs to be realistic and achievable within the constraints of your circumstances and risk tolerance. I get that you might want to solve world poverty with your legacy, but even Bill Gates is struggling with that one. So, achievement of your outcomes will depend on market conditions outside anyone’s control)

Here's How We Make It Happen

Generate Growth – You’ll move from vague to structured with a clear asset map and action plan aligned with your goals and objectives.

Accumulate Wealth – You’ll go from casual to measured with a structured growth plan and regular monitoring to help you stay on track.

Insulate Assets – You’ll move from vulnerable to secured by working to protect and shield your assets from financial threats. Like a coconut’s hard shell, we aim to create strong layers of protection around your wealth.

The result? Sustainable Wealth that truly reflects your values.

The Sustainable Wealth Roadmap™

Here’s how we work together to move from where you are now to true Sustainable Wealth:

01 – Connect

Determine whether we’re a good fit and whether it makes sense for us to proceed.

02 – Explore

Explore your financial position and clarify what Sustainable Wealth means to you

03 – Design

Create your Sustainable Wealth Blueprint™ and personal Action Plan.

04 – Execute

Recommend and implement your action plan to deliver and maintain Sustainable Wealth.

05 – Adapt

As life changes, we’ll adapt your Sustainable Wealth Blueprint™ and Action Plan to keep you on track.

01 – Connect

Determine whether we’re a good fit and whether it makes sense for us to proceed.

No advice or planning is provided at this stage.

If we decide to proceed, we move to the Explore stage, where paid financial planning work begins.

02 – Explore

Explore your financial position and clarify what Sustainable Wealth means to you

This stage involves a detailed review of your personal, family, and business finances, priorities, constraints, and objectives, to ensure the strategy we design is grounded in your reality.

03 – Design

Create your Sustainable Wealth Blueprint™ and personal Action Plan.

This stage converts the work done in Explore into a clear Sustainable Wealth Blueprint™, setting out the strategy and a practical financial action plan to achieve your objectives.

*Stages 2 and 3 form the initial paid engagement. This is unregulated financial planning — strategy, action planning, and blueprint creation — not regulated financial product advice.

04 – Execute

Recommend and implement your action plan to deliver and maintain Sustainable Wealth.

If we both decide to proceed, this is where regulated financial advice is provided and your plan is implemented using appropriate financial products.

05 – Adapt

As life changes, we’ll adapt your Sustainable Wealth Blueprint™ and Financial Action Plan to keep you on track.

We provide an ongoing financial review and advice service to ensure your Sustainable Wealth Blueprint remains appropriate and effective.

The key point: You’re only committing to Stages 2 and 3 initially. Execute and Adapt are optional and only proceed where appropriate for both parties.

"But What About...?" - Your Questions Answered

Q “Doesn’t sustainable investing mean lower returns?”

Not necessarily. It depends how sustainable you want to be. The more you move toward impact investing, the more investment risk you accept. But for most B Corp business owners, the majority of your investments can probably use exclusion-based strategies that avoid the worst players while maintaining diversification.

Q “This sounds expensive.”

My charges are transparent and reflect fair value for the work I do. If you’re lucky enough to have £1m to invest, my charges may reflect economies of scale. But if you want to invest that £1m in ten chunks of £100k, that’s ten times the work. You’re not paying for my time – you’re paying for my experience and expertise. (You can read my full Terms of Business including costs disclosure by clicking here. Before any regulated advice is ever given, you will receive a full, clear, and transparent breakdown of all costs including how those costs may impact returns)

Q “I don’t have time for complex planning.”

Planning is the foundation. If you don’t have a clear plan with clear goals and objectives, there’s no way to measure whether your financial action plan is delivering against those outcomes. Any plan is better than no plan at all. Most people put more time into planning their holidays than planning their financial future! What does that say about the importance of their future well-being?

Q “My current advisor already offers sustainable options.”

Do you trust them enough to get a second opinion? Some “sustainable” investment options may be wolves in sheep’s clothing with a green label slapped on. Have they actually looked at the percentage exposure you have to various industries? Has your advisor been through B Corp certification? Do they understand what it actually means? I have – because I’ve walked the walk, not just talked about it.

Q “I’ve had bad experiences with financial advisors.”

I get it. Every industry has bad apples. Many advisors focus on products, not outcomes. They use confusing jargon and sit on the opposite side of the table from their clients. I sit on the same side as you, working together to do the right thing at the right time to get you to the right place.

Q “What do we mean by ‘values-aligned / sustainable?”

We use ESG screening criteria, exclude certain sectors, consider positive impacts, and regularly monitor holdings. We use third-party data / independent benchmarks. We also recognise that what counts as “sustainable” may differ between clients; we tailor based on your personal values and objectives.

Q “What does it mean to be a B Corp?”

B Corps do not have a single written definition of “sustainable”; instead, they define it through a commitment to a triple bottom line, valuing people, planet, and profit equally, and ensuring that their products, practices, and profits do not harm but rather benefit all stakeholders. Sustainability for B Corps means integrating social and environmental goals into their core business strategy to achieve positive societal impact and build a more inclusive, regenerative, and sustainable economy.

Why Am I Telling You This Now?

Because every day you delay, the gap between where you are now and achieving Sustainable Wealth gets wider.

The longer you leave it, the bigger the jump you’ll need to make to get your wealth aligned with your values while still meeting your financial goals.

Here’s the reality: I can only work with 3-5 new clients each quarter. Once those spaces are filled, you go on the waiting list. If you’re serious about unlocking the 21x potential of your wealth alignment, the best time to start was yesterday. The second best time is today.

Aligning Wealth With Values Starts With A Conversation

Working together begins with a conversation.

To book a time that works for you, I’ll need to understand your circumstances and what you’re looking to achieve. The booking process includes a few questions that help me prepare for our conversation.

I personally review every booking. If I don’t believe we’re a good fit or that I can add meaningful value, I’ll contact you before our scheduled call.

No financial advice is provided at this initial conversation. This is a decision point for both of us to determine whether it makes sense to proceed.

If we decide to proceed, paid financial planning work begins at the Explore stage, where I carry out detailed financial analysis and begin building your Sustainable Wealth Blueprint™.

What Happens Next

  1. You book a conversation (takes 60 seconds)
  2. We meet and discuss how I can help you
  3. We both decide whether it makes sense to proceed

There is no obligation to proceed beyond this point.

What You Can Expect

  • A clear decision on next steps
  • Straight answers
  • No pressure, no selling, no obligation

My Approach

I only work with clients where I believe I can add meaningful value over the long term.
If that isn’t the case, I’ll say so.

That selectivity is deliberate — and essential to how we work.

The Gap Is Widening

Every day you delay makes the jump to Sustainable Wealth harder and more difficult to achieve.

Don’t let another month pass with your wealth working against your values. I can only work with a limited number of new clients each year. If aligning your wealth with your values matters to you, the appropriate next step is to book a conversation.

It takes 30 seconds. The Sustainable Wealth conversation lasts a lifetime.

P.S.Your wealth is either working for your values or against them. There’s no middle ground. Let’s make sure it’s working for you.

P.P.S. Remember: switching your pension could deliver 21x more carbon reduction than going vegetarian, avoiding all flights, and switching to renewable energy combined. If aligning your wealth with your values matters to you, the time to act is now.

P.P.P.S A final nod to my regulated industry … All investments carry risk. The value of investments can fall as well as rise, and you may get back less than you pay in. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results. There is no guarantee your objectives will be achieved in the time frame you require given markets are outside anyone’s control.
