Ashleigh Thompson didn’t just enter the financial world — she invested herself in it.

What began as a simple interest in crunching numbers quickly grew into a full-blown passion for financially empowering others.

“My passion for financial planning actually started from a selfish place. I wanted to know how to improve our own financial situation, plus I loved numbers with having a background in bookkeeping.”

Now a Financial Adviser at Alman Partners True Wealth, Ashleigh is part of a values-led firm that understands that true wealth is more than just money.

“It’s not about becoming rich but about using money to deliver the things that matter most to people – like spending time with their families and having peace of mind,” she says.

“It’s so rewarding to put clients’ minds at ease, and I’m proud that we can have that type of impact on our client community”

Q: Money myth you love to debunk?

A: That you need money to make money. Financial planning is about strategising to put you in the best position to improve and build wealth.

Q: EOFY advice?

A: Keep a folder – physical or digital – for tax info and deductions throughout the year, and speak to your accountant early to avoid missing EOFY opportunities like super contributions.
