Ellen Rogin, CPA, CFP® and Abundance Activist® is the co-author of the NY Times best-seller, Picture Your Prosperity: Smart Money Moves to Turn Your Vision into Reality.

Rogin is driven to guide advisors to do their best work in the world, reach their goals, and make the difference they want to make. She speaks from experience. Rogin successfully grew and ultimately sold Strategic Financial Designs Inc., a wealth management firm, to enable the pursuit of her mission to help the world think and act more prosperously.

She uses non-traditional strategies to succeed in challenging times and shares these methods with her audiences.

Chock full of “left-brain” credentials (MBA, CPA, CFP®) Rogin also walks on the “right” side, balancing values, big picture ideas, meditation, and a sense of humor with all her professional training.

She is a regular contributor to Horsesmouth® and is a host of Horsesmouth® Advisor Radio and Horsesmouth® Live. Rogin is also on the HPN (Hoopis Performance Network) University faculty.
