Hi, I'm Nycole Freer, a Certified Financial Planner™. Together, we will get your finances organized, plan for college, and pick your investments. Everyone has blind spots in their personal finances. I assess financial behavior to better understand what your specific needs are. "Personal finance is less finance, and more personal."
MY HISTORY AND EXPERIENCE
I graduated Cal state Fullerton with my degree in Personal Finance in 2012 and have been in financial services since then, going on 11 years now. I got licensed at Waddell & Reed, and that is where I started my career.
In 2018 I earned my CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ designation, the CFP®, and in 2022 I earned my Behavioral Financial Advisor (BFA™) designation. I have worked with top financial advisors in the industry for the past 10 years and now ready to fly on my own. Well not 100% on my own.
I am heavily involved with the financial advisor community and staying up to date on relevant topics and are able to bounce ideas off each other. I am a part of the XY Planning Network (XYPN), the Financial Planning Association (FPA), and the National Association of Personal Financial Advisors (NAPFA).
As a mom, wife, health and wellness advocate, and forever student of life, I continue to challenge myself to rise to my potential and encourage others to never settle for less than what their goals are.

About Eden Financial
Together, we will get your finances organized, plan for college, and pick your investments. Everyone has blind spots in their personal finances. I assess financial behavior to better understand what your specific needs are. "Personal finance is less finance, and more personal."
Passionate about helping others, Nycole Freer has earned a reputation as an entrepreneur who leads with warmth, compassion, and a relentless dedication to helping others succeed.
“When I was almost 20, I went into a well-known bank branch and spoke to an advisor. I shared that I had $500 to invest. He told me to come back when I had more money. I never went back – instead, I became the advisor I was looking for,” says Nycole.
Serving young entrepreneurs, families, women, and children for over a decade as a trusted advisor, Nycole is the visionary behind Eden Financial.
Founding her company in 2023, Nycole doubled down on her commitment to educating others on how to build a thriving financial life. With the belief that personal finance is “more personal than finance,” Nycole has helped others bring their financial goals to life by first understanding them as people. Investing quality time into building a relationship with each person she serves is of the utmost importance to Nycole.
“I want to be able to help people like my younger self, who had the right financial intentions but who needed guidance on everything from A-Z when it comes to financial planning and investing.”
Sought out for her valued counsel and tailor-made approach, Nycole works with her clientele as their financial “partner,” seeking to educate them every step of the way so they can become more confident along their wealth-building journey. With a diverse and comprehensive background, Nycole has built Eden Financial as a one-stop shop powerhouse for those who value quality in both service and results.
Nycole and her firm offer financial planning support in the following areas: college planning, investment planning, retirement planning, life planning, tax planning, debt planning, insurance planning, income planning, social security planning, savings planning, charitable planning, succession planning, estate planning, and legacy planning. She also helps her clientele understand the psychology of financial planning, cash flow management, financing strategies & debt management techniques, as well as how to understand financial statements.
As an inspired leader who knows that true success comes from helping others, Nycole is highly involved in a variety of personal and professional organizations. She believes in following your dreams and never settling for less than your potential.

I cannot recommend Nycole Freer enough. From the very beginning, it was clear that she genuinely listened to my concerns and goals. She took the time to fully understand my financial situation and created a personalized plan that felt not only achievable but also aligned with my long-term aspirations.
Nycole's supportive and approachable nature made working with her an absolute pleasure. She has a talent for breaking down complex financial concepts into simple, easy-to-understand terms. I never felt pressured into making decisions—instead, she provided realistic advice tailored to my comfort level and economic capacity, which helped build my confidence every step of the way.
Most importantly, Nycole is both incredibly knowledgeable and trustworthy. I always felt that my best interests were her top priority, and every recommendation she made reflected that commitment. If you're looking for a financial advisor who truly cares and delivers exceptional service, Nycole is the one to call!

I was so lucky to have a one-on-one meeting with Nycole, the Founder of Eden Financial. I've also had an opportunity to hear her speak twice at events. Her vision to help families, and people of every walk of life, is inspiring and very needed. She has made services once reserved for only the highest net worth individuals available to everyone. She is a talented advisor for anyone - no matter what stage of wealth accumulation or planning you might be in.

Tips for Writing a Helpful Review
Be descriptive. Instead of just saying what you like or dislike, share why. What have you enjoyed most or least about your experience with the provider? Have they helped you overcome a difficult financial challenge or strengthened your knowledge about particular money matters? The more details, the better!
Be honest. Your rating and review should reflect your actual experience.
Stay relevant. Ensure your review is helpful to others by avoiding off-topic discussions or personal opinions not relevant to your direct experience.
Make your review easy to read. Reviews should be readable to others. Use proper grammar, avoid excessive capitalization or punctuation, and be sure to check your spelling.
Be yourself. Don’t post as, or pretend to be, someone else, and do not say you’re associated with a person or organization with which you are not.
Be nice. Don’t write abusive, hateful, threatening, or harassing content. Avoid personal threats, hate speech, obscenities, or inflammatory language.
Respect the privacy of others. Don’t post information that can be used to identify another individual or compromise their privacy.
