Bri Conn

CFP®

Childfree Wealth Specialist®

Bri Conn brings a wealth of knowledge to Childfree Insights in financial management, life design, and estate planning — especially for LGBTQ+ individuals and couples.

After facing many personal financial challenges early in life, she dove into the world of personal finance through social media and books, recovering from her mistakes slowly but surely and eventually taking control of her financial destiny.

Now, with a Bachelor of Arts in Communication from the University of North Dakota and a background in marketing, she channels her skills into personal finance education. As an Investment Advisor Representative, CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER®, and cohost of the Childfree Life by Design podcast, she is passionate about helping others navigate their financial journeys.

When she's not working, you'll find her outdoors: hiking, running, or enjoying the beauty of nature with her wife and dog. Her core values are community, education, social participation, and sustainability, and she is committed to integrating these into everything she does.

Episode 215: Recognized as One of TIME's Best Inventions of 2026

In one month, Childfree Trust® earned a National Institute on Aging grant, a spot on TIME’s list of the Best Inventions of 2026, and a World Economic Forum UpLink Venture. Dr. Jay Zigmont, CFP® and Bri Conn, CFP® share what it took to get there, from more than 50 versions of the business to the community that backed it from the start.

Episode 214: Digital Legacy and End-of-Life Planning

Your will does not override the privacy agreements you signed with Meta, Spotify, and every other platform holding your life, which is the part of end-of-life planning almost nobody has handled. Niki Weiss joins Bri Conn, CFP® to walk through digital legacy, the four domains of a real plan, and the two-minute phone setting worth doing before you finish listening.

Episode 213: Turning Passion Into Impact on Nonprofit Boards

For a lot of Childfree people, the real question isn’t whether to give their time, but where to point it so it matters. Lemon Price joins Maddy Roche to demystify the path from volunteer to the boardroom where decisions actually get made, and to give you permission to let your passions evolve along the way.

Episode 212: Giving Strategies for Money, Time, and Impact

Giving gets more meaningful when you start with who you want to impact. Bri Conn, CFP® and Dr. Jay Zigmont, CFP® explore giving time, money, skills, and experiences, including how to support charities, friends, and family in ways that fit the Childfree life you are designing.

Episode 211: The Truth About the Cost of Healthcare in America

Americans pay about double what other countries do for healthcare, and it keeps getting harder to actually get. Jordan Grumet, MD, the hospice doctor known as Doc G, returns to talk with Dr. Jay Zigmont, CFP® about why the system isn’t broken by accident, but built to pull money away from patients and the people who care for them.

Episode 210: Childfree Estate Planning and Long-Term Care

The estate and long-term care system assumes you have kids to make your decisions and inherit what’s left, which quietly turns standard legal documents into a liability when you’re Childfree. Dr. Jay Zigmont, CFP® pulls apart his in-depth Kitces article to show how to build a plan that actually protects you.
