About Brian

Brian Thompson is the Founder and Financial Planner of Brian Thompson Financial LLC, where he helps LGBTQ+ and mission-driven entrepreneurs build profitable businesses that reflect who they are and support the impact they want to make. As a financial advisor and business strategist, Brian works with service-based founders who are building more than just a business. They're building movements, communities, and legacies. Brian helps them bring clarity and structure to their business finances, so they can grow with confidence while staying rooted in purpose.

Before launching his firm, Brian spent nearly a decade as a tax attorney. That experience, combined with his own entrepreneurial journey, informs his holistic approach to planning. He understands the challenges faced by underrepresented founders, especially those navigating traditional financial systems that don’t reflect their identities or values. His work dismantles the myth that profit and purpose are mutually exclusive. He is the host of the Mission Driven Business podcast, where he features the stories and strategies of diverse entrepreneurs. He was also recently featured on the Making Good podcast, sharing insights on how to build a business that serves your values and your life. Through personalized financial planning, strategic advisory, and real-talk podcast conversations, Brian helps entrepreneurs lead businesses that work for their founders—energetically, ideologically, and economically. As a Black, queer financial advisor, Brian is especially passionate about creating space for diverse voices in financial and entrepreneurial conversations.
