Life's complicated enough - why not simplify where we can? As a Wealth Coach and co-founder of an independent financial practice , I specialize in helping individuals and families break down big financial goals into practical, manageable steps. Whether you're planning for retirement, navigating a major life change, or just trying to get a better handle on your financial complexities, my goal is to make those decisions feel clear and doable. I earned a degree computer programming, but during the "Great Recession" in 2008, I pivoted into financial planning because I saw how essential clarity and strategy are-especially in times of uncertainty. For the past 16 years, I've focused on helping clients move from feeling overwhelmed to confidence with smart, actionable planning. I hold the Chartered Retirement Planning Counselor" (CRPC®) designation from the College for Financial Planning® and am an Investment Adviser Representative with Commonwealth Financial Network®, maintaining FINRA Series 7 and 66 securities licenses. Some of my best lessons about simplicity come from being a dad to two energetic boys (ages 6 and 11). Whether we're building a Lego fortress or talking about saving for something big, they remind me that life should be more about doing what matters and less about stressing over the rest. And honestly, financial planning should feel the same-empowering, not overwhelming. Not everyone wakes up excited to organize life's priorities-but I do. And if that's not your thing, that's okay. You don't have to do it alone. My role is to bring structure, clarity, and encouragement so you can move forward with confidence. Let's simplify, strategize, and move forward-together.
Cedarwood was launched with the goal of creating a firm that felt like family to both clients and partners. We trace our roots back to 1996, when our senior partner and founder began serving individual investors in central Texas. He learned that serving clients well is much more than just offering financial products.

Michelle Vargas, Certified Financial Planner™ is the President of Waymaker Financial Planning, a Fee-Only planning and investment management firm in Fort Worth, Texas. She focuses on helping Christian women make smart money decisions, especially those in transition to retirement, widowhood, and managing wealth for the first time. Her goal is to help all clients successfully navigate their financial life so that they will be worry free and spend more time doing what they love. After earning a degree in Finance from the University of Louisiana at Lafayette in 1990, she moved to Orlando, Florida and started her career with Harcourt Brace Publishing. Her journey into personal finance began when she enrolled in her 401K and wanted to learn about additional options to plan for retirement. Not many advisors were willing to help her with her 401K choices, and none offered a written financial plan. In 1994 she left Harcourt Brace Publishing and became licensed to work as a Financial Advisor. In 1998, she completed the rigorous education and experience requirements to become a CFP. With over 9 years of professional experience as a financial advisor, she daily strives to make the complex simple when advising clients. She often remembers what the experience was like when she was young and looking for an advisor. This memory enables her to be sensitive and patient in all of her interactions. Education is also an important component of her practice, and she has been quoted by CBS News, Yahoo Finance, and MSN. She and her husband live in Fort Worth, and they have an amazing son Andrew. He is a Young Steinway Artist in graduate school at Texas Christian University. When her son was younger, she was very active in the homeschool community and served as a director, teacher, and support group leader. Her proudest accomplishments are persevering in homeschooling through high school and founding Waymaker Financial Planning. In her spare time, she enjoys walking through the Fort Worth Botanical Gardens to get inspired to make her own garden more beautiful. Spring is her favorite time of year and she loves exploring backroads filled with beautiful fields of Texas Bluebonnets. Occasionally, when her adventurous side kicks in, she goes white water rafting - with an experienced guide, of course!
Waymaker Financial Planning serves Christian women in all seasons of their lives. We also work with Christian men who are looking for a trusted female CFP so that their wives can begin to learn about family finances now instead of later in a time of grief. We work as Fiduciaries at all times and are Fee-Only Advisors. Our practice is mostly virtual, but we are available for in-person meetings as needed.
