You’re used to handling complicated things well. But divorce asks you to make major financial decisions when you’re already emotionally drained, often with incomplete information and on someone else’s timeline.
The stakes are too high for guesswork. You don’t have to figure out the money part on your own.
Whitney Light, CDFA® & Wealth Manager
A settlement looks fair until someone runs the numbers.
A business. Equity compensation. Retirement accounts opened before marriage.
When your wealth includes more than bank balances, dividing it is rarely straightforward. Two settlements can look equal on paper but have very different financial outcomes after taxes and over time.
Your attorney brings legal expertise. Understanding how a settlement could affect your financial future takes specialized financial analysis.
My wealth management background and experience with complex assets help me spot missing information, resolve discrepancies, and uncover value that might otherwise be overlooked. I translate it all into plain terms, so you understand what you’re agreeing to.
Working with me, you’ll have the information you need to negotiate with confidence and protect your financial future.
“Whitney took the time to help me understand my investments in a way that made me feel excited about what I have and the possibilities. For the first time, I enjoy talking about finances. I feel in control of my money and can plan for what I can do with it, instead of avoiding it.”
– Nina, Los Angeles

Are you a high achiever who happens to have ADHD?
Many of the high achievers I work with have ADHD.
In the divorce process, a single request for bank statements can become a maze of passwords, missing files, and half-finished tasks. Maybe you keep putting off emailing your attorney, but the longer you delay, the harder it becomes to reply.
I get it because I've been there.
You need someone who understands both the complexity of your finances and how ADHD can make it harder to manage everything under stress.
Bring me your unanswered questions and the paperwork you haven’t touched. We’ll identify what needs attention and work through it together, without judgment or the expectation that you should have it all organized and figured out already.
Podcast Appearances
I share how my own separation and experience with ADHD shaped the way I help clients navigate the financial side of divorce.
I join host Alex Beattie to discuss why divorce can be especially overwhelming with ADHD, how to get unstuck, and how financial patterns in a marriage can resurface during negotiations.
Let’s start with a conversation.
We’ll talk through your questions, where you are in the divorce process, and how I can help.
