About our guest:

Jon Jones, co-founder of Brighton Jones, helped create the Personal CFO approach to wealth management with Charles. While many firms focused solely on managing clients' investment accounts, Brighton Jones took a holistic approach by overseeing all client balances. Financial wellness and acting as a personal CFO remain at the core of the firm's services. However, Jon believes that truly helping clients live richer lives requires going beyond traditional financial management.

Standing at the intersection of life and wealth, Jon and his team recognize the importance of impacting clients' emotional and social well-being. They celebrate life's joys—marriages, new homes, births, and retirements—and offer guidance during challenges like job loss, divorce, illness, or bereavement. Jon appreciates the opportunity to encourage clients to embrace the bigger picture, focus on their whole selves, and understand that true happiness extends far beyond financial success.
