This is our story.
We look forward to hearing yours.

Established in 2014 under the leadership of Kathy Longo, Flourish Wealth Management is a woman-owned business that draws its roots from her early career inspiration while working with a female wealth manager and entrepreneur. After gaining experience from various firms in Chicago and Minneapolis, Kathy embarked on the journey to create Flourish Wealth Management, driven by her vision to authentically improve the lives of her clients. Her firm’s primary focus lies in helping clients understand their unique financial journey and values, building their confidence in open financial conversations with loved ones, and planning for their desired future.

Flourish is dedicated to ongoing learning, personal growth, and team development, all of which are supported by an external professional hired to help us discover our individual strengths, enhance our communication skills, and uncover opportunities to foster our team-oriented culture. We continually learn from one another through our bi-weekly lunch-and-learn sessions, which delve into various interesting topics and themes related to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI).

Our Values

We serve our clients – and ourselves – by committing to these five core values in our work:

Bring Passion and Excellence to Everything We Do
Take Meaningful Actions That Lead to Positive Change
Grow and Share Our Experience and Insights
Take Initiative and Be Resourceful
Cultivate Gratitude and Embrace Life's Celebrations

Your finances are connected to every aspect of your life, and the right financial plan addresses your emotional needs, wants, core values, and vision for the future.
