Chris Wedell, CFP®, CDFA®

I became a financial advisor because I grew up in a house where money was the source of a lot of pain and tension. I vowed to not only build a different future for myself, but to raise my family with the peace of mind that comes from financial literacy and planning.

For me, financial planning is about more than numbers. It’s about creating clarity and confidence for the people I work with, at every stage of life, from building wealth and preparing for retirement to navigating major transitions and planning for what comes next. I’m especially passionate about walking alongside clients through life’s biggest turning points: divorce, the loss of a spouse, retirement, and the other moments that change everything.

Co-founding StrongHer Money® let me turn that early experience into something bigger, an educational platform built to help women build confidence and take greater control of their financial lives.

I’m a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ professional and Wealth Advisor, and I’ve been named a Five Star Wealth Manager ten times, as featured in St. Louis Magazine.* I split my time between Saint Louis and Birmingham with my husband, Rick. Between the two of us, we have five children we love to travel with.
