Romany Youell is an award-winning independent financial adviser and founder of The Finance Woman, a modern financial planning brand dedicated to empowering people to take control of their wealth with confidence.

Qualifying at just 18, Romany became the youngest financial adviser in the UK at the time. She now runs the financial advice arm of her family-owned firm, NeedingAdvice.co.uk, where she specialises in holistic planning.

Through The Finance Woman, Romany is on a mission to change the face of financial advice - making it more accessible, more human and more representative. She is passionate about breaking industry stereotypes, supporting the next generation of advisers, and encouraging more women to build wealth, lead confidently, and see financial services as a career path.

Romany works closely with a growing national network of accountants and professional partners, and regularly speaks on modernising advice, generational wealth planning, and empowering women in finance.
