About Threshold Compass Strategies

Based in Wisconsin, Threshold Compass Strategies™ is a solo-owned transitional Corporation honoring both the personal and professional dimensions of change. Through Threshold Compass Consulting™ and Threshold Advisory™, I provide tailored pathways for individuals and financial professionals seeking clarity, confidence, and soulful alignment in seasons of change.

This practice integrates decades of lived experience, bridging finance, caregiving, grief, and growth, with operational excellence, emotional intelligence, and legacy-minded strategy.

Special Considerations

I am especially honored to support individuals in vulnerable seasons, those feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, or uncertain about where to begin. Many of my clients arrive after grief, betrayal, burnout, or disconnect from traditional financial systems.

If you’ve ever felt like a survivor without a map, this is a space where your story is honored and your next chapter is built with care.

Informed, Compassionate Support

As both a legacy strategist and daughter, I bring personal and professional insight to elder care transitions. I serve as a Healthcare Power of Attorney for loved ones with cognitive decline and complex health disorders. These lived experiences shape how I hold space, with tenderness, practicality, and deep respect.
