About Our Guest(s):
For the past 20 years, Lisa Brown has been providing financial advice to corporate executives and high-net-worth individuals across the United States. Currently a Partner at a wealth management firm in Atlanta, Georgia, Lisa speaks to audiences throughout the country on financial planning and money empowerment topics.
Her financial advice is regularly featured in national and local media, including The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, Yahoo! Finance, Kiplinger, CNBC.com, Atlanta television, and many more.
Although Brown’s clients are affluent, her own upbringing was far more modest.
Raised by two schoolteachers in a rural farming town in upstate New York, Brown learned at the age of twelve how hard work translated into money, rising at six o’clock in the morning during her summer breaks to pick strawberries on a farm for twenty-five cents per quart. This perspective laid the foundation for the appreciation she has for money today.
A wife, a mother to three children including a set of twins, a community advocate for homeless families, a running coach, marathoner, adventure racer, MBA graduate, author, and speaker, Lisa has a “get things done well” attitude.
