We help you navigate the transition from saving to creating lasting income, with clear guidance and a personalized plan for your next chapter
Know you'll have enough to retire comfortably
You’ve spent decades building your career and accumulating wealth, but as retirement approaches, the questions keep you up at night:
- Do I have enough saved to maintain my lifestyle?
- When can I actually afford to retire?
- How do I make my money last 20-30 years without a paycheck
The shift from accumulating wealth to living off it feels overwhelming. You’ve been successful at building your career, but retirement planning feels like uncharted territory.
At Align, we help you:
- Calculate exactly how much you need for the retirement you want
- Create a withdrawal strategy that protects your lifestyle
- Navigate healthcare costs, Social Security timing, and tax-efficient planning
- Feel confident about making the leap from working to retirement
Whether you’re 5 years out or ready to retire next year, we’ll help you transition with clarity and peace of mind.
Turn decades of saving into a reliable retirement income
You’ve been a diligent saver, but now you face a completely different challenge: How do you replace your paycheck with your portfolio?
The questions feel endless:
- Should I take Social Security now or wait?
- How much can I safely withdraw each year?
- What if the market crashes right after I retire?
How do I handle healthcare costs without employer insurance?
You didn’t spend your career worrying about sequence of returns risk or Medicare supplement plans. But now these decisions feel critical to your financial security. As a fiduciary advisor, we specialize in helping successful women navigate this transition. We’ll create a comprehensive income replacement strategy that accounts for all your revenue sources and helps you sleep well at night.

A Guide Who Understands Your Retirement Concerns
I’ve worked with many successful women who excel at building wealth during their careers but feel anxious about the transition to retirement.
They ask the same big question you have: when can I afford to stop working?
These aren’t just numbers on a spreadsheet. They’re about your freedom, security, and peace of mind for the next 20-30 years of your life.
I started Align to be the advisor I wish more women had access to during this critical transition:
Someone who doesn’t just run retirement calculators, but who understands the emotional complexity of leaving your career, the importance of maintaining your independence, and the peace of mind that comes with a well-thought-out plan.
You deserve a partner who sees retirement not as an ending, but as the next exciting chapter of your life.
