Book a call

A few quick questions first, then you pick your time.I take a maximum of four of these calls a week.

How the thirty minutes go

  1. Minutes 0 to 10

    Where things stand

    Your situation, your goals, and the question that brought you here.

  2. Minutes 10 to 25

    What matters most

    Every financial decision is a trade-off. We work together to reveal the right one.

  3. Minutes 25 to 30

    Your next move

    One clear step you can act on this week.

  4. Minute 30

    We wrap up

    You leave with your plan. Nothing to decide, nothing to sign.

What people bring to these calls

You don't need to have it figured out, and you don't need a certain amount of money. Most people come with one question and leave with a clearer picture of everything around it.

  • A decision you keep putting off, like paying down the mortgage versus investing, or buying versus renting.
  • RRSP, TFSA, FHSA, RESP: which account should come first, and how much should go where.
  • Money that arrived all at once, from an inheritance, a bonus, a property, or the sale of a business.
  • A business you own, and questions about how to pay yourself or what the company should hold.
  • Insurance you're not sure you need, or aren't sure is the right kind.
  • A big change coming up: a new baby, a new job, a move, a marriage, or retirement on the horizon.
  • A plan or portfolio someone else built, and a second opinion on whether it still fits.
  • No specific question, just a feeling you could be doing better with what you have.

The one thing this call isn't for is stock tips.

How booking works

  1. Answer a few questions

    About three minutes, so I can prepare for your situation before we talk.

  2. Watch the prep video

    You'll get an email with a short video on what to bring and what to expect.

  3. Pick your time

    The same email includes a private booking link. Choose any open time. The link works once.

  4. Meet for thirty minutes

    Over Zoom or Google Meet, whichever you prefer.

If a call isn't the right fit for where you are right now, I'll tell you that directly and point you to something more useful instead.

Why this call is free

We're here to solve a disconnect between what we hear and what we see. What we hear is that advisors overcharge for something you should do yourself. What we see is that individuals and families who work with a great wealth coach end up more clear, more empowered and wishing they had done it sooner.

So on the call, I do what I do with my clients. I look at your situation and tell you what I'd focus on first. I won't hold back the useful part for a paid meeting.

At the end, our hope is that you walk away empowered to act, and with a restored hope in the value of having a great coach in your corner whether you hire one or not. There's nothing to sign and no follow-up call to dodge.

The one thing I ask is that you come prepared, because thirty minutes goes quickly. Once you book, I'll send you a short video on what to bring.

Who you'll be talking to

I'm Josh, a Certified Financial Planner and the founder of Haven Wealth. I've spent 11 years helping Canadians make informed decisions about their money and their future, from business owners and professionals to families just getting started.

I also hold the CLU® designation, which covers intergenerational wealth and estate planning.

My approach is values & vision first. We figure out what your best version of life looks like before anyone talks about tactics or products.

As seen in

In their words

We've been working with Josh for nearly 10 years now and it was honestly the best decision. We've gotten ahead of schedule for an early retirement while keeping resources available for big milestones like building our dream cottage. We feel completely comfortable trusting the team to recommend what is truly best for future us.

Mark & NicoleClients of 9 years

Josh has treated me as though I was his only client and perhaps his own father. He and the team helped me develop a plan for my assets in a time of deep sorrow, the passing of my wife. I couldn't have built what we have today without Haven.

DarrenClient of 4 years

A few years ago a passion project of mine started to gain some serious steam. Having Josh helped me immensely in both managing my assets and broadening my knowledge of finance, tax and the wealth creation tools at my disposal. It's been evident from the start that this wasn't a day job for him, and the primary goal was helping me become successful.

Questions people ask first

Is it actually free?
Yes. No cost, no card. I'm here to restore faith in something I believe is powerful but we're being taught to ignore.
Do I need a certain amount of money to book?
No. There's no minimum. The call is about your decisions, not the size of your accounts.
I'm not sure what to ask. Should I still book?
Yes. The questions before you book help find the right place to start, and "am I on track?" is a perfectly good question to bring.
What should I prepare?
You'll get a short video once you book. The short version: a rough picture of your accounts, income, tax situation and anything big coming up, plus the questions that are on your mind.
Do you work with people outside Canada?
I specialize in Canadian planning and work with people in every province and territory, all by Zoom or Google Meet. I’m not the right fit for Americans or anyone living outside Canada, since the tax and account rules are different.
What if I want help after the call?
If you'd like, I can briefly explain what working together looks like near the end of the call. If it’s not for you, that’s a perfectly good answer and the plan you leave with is still yours.
What happens to the information I share?
Everything you share is held in complete confidence under our privacy policy. The questions people ask sometimes become content or case studies, but always under a pseudonym and never with identifying details.

I take four of these calls a week.

Times are first come, first served. If this week is full, you'll see the next open times when you book.
