Growing up in Charlotte, NC, I always had a fascination with how money worked. I started several small businesses and it became clear that in order to make money as an entrepreneur you needed money up front to get started and become profitable. Slowly, I began to realize that the more I could save, the more I could invest. The more I could invest, the more money I would have working for me which would I could use to pay bills and have more time for fun!

I started working for a Fortune Global 500 Company. Less than a year later, I was laid off due to the Great Recession. During this difficult period, I promised myself that I would work tirelessly to learn how to save money, invest it and ultimately live life on my terms!

Nearly 12 years after my commitment, I was able to achieve my dream of financial freedom! Ever since that moment, I’ve been thinking of how I can help others achieve their dreams.

Business owner, award-winning financial planner, and pizza aficionado Justin Goodbread launched his first business when he was 15. From Brunswick, Georgia, he grew up running around barefoot and chasing alligators. His love for helping others with their finances evolved over time, but it began with a bet. A friend bet $5,000 Justin wouldn’t be able to pass three financial tests. With only a month to study, Justin passed the first time. That ultimately led him to become a Certified Financial Planner™ and later added Certified Value Growth Advisor®, and Certified Exit Planning Advisor® to his expertise.

Over the last 16+ years, I’ve helped hundreds of businesses become more profitable, stabilize cash flow, and pay less in taxes through a combination of tax strategies, operational planning, and commitment to excellence.
‍
My expertise is based on my experience working as a CPA, holding an MBA, being certified in tax planning and price psychology, being trained in Profit First system, and having worked with clients across multiple industries and of various sizes.

Over the years, I’ve developed a comprehensive understanding of what separates winning businesses from those that are sadly forced to close their doors. I’ve translated that knowledge into tools to help you get to where you want to be in life and business.

How you grow up factors into your life and financial decisions in a big way. My dad was a Depression baby, and worked two jobs as a teacher and a musician. He saved every nickel. My mom was a child prodigy violinist and had no problem spending. Discussions about money were generally “forte”. So, my money mindset eventually resolved toward a balance between thrift and spending. It was not a straight line.

I started working toward my true calling from an unlikely place. After deciding that a career as a trumpet player wasn’t in the cards, I earned my CPA and worked in public accounting for 10 years. It was my background in accounting and my passion for working directly with families that led me to Financial Life Planning.

Listening to your story and planning for the life you want makes my job energizing, rewarding, and well…awesome.
