Advice-only financial planning tools and coaching to help Canadians run their own plan
+1 more

Calm Money Community is built for Canadians who want to manage their own finances but still get expert guidance along the way. Brian Orlando, a CPA who spent 15 years across audit at PwC, pharma and med device deals, and product management at Sonos, created the community after leaving the corporate track in 2026 to focus on advice-only planning and education full time.
Members get access to more than 130 guides and calculators, 18 interactive planning tools they can run on their own numbers, and live monthly Q&A sessions with Brian. A community board lets members request new tools and vote on what gets built next, so the resources keep growing around what Canadians actually need to plan with confidence.
