Financial Planning & Lifestyle Design Expert; Founder of Time Freedom; Author of "Time Freedom"
Brian Herriot Biography
Brian Herriot is a registered investment advisor, author, professional speaker, and business consultant specializing in financial planning, wealth management, and lifestyle design. Herriot's career centers on the idea that individuals do not have to wait until retirement to live life on their own terms. With a background in engineering and business, Herriot experienced a pivotal moment that led him to redefine wealth in terms of meaning and autonomy, not just financial figures. His professional experience includes management consulting roles at Accenture and Point B, as well as a director position at UCSF Health. He holds a master's degree in finance, investment, and banking from the University of Wisconsin. Through entrepreneurship, investing, and real estate, Herriot achieved financial independence at age 47.
Herriot is the founder of Time Freedom and author of "Time Freedom: Rethink Your Work and Money to Create a Life You Love Now." His philosophy challenges the notion that financial independence or retirement are prerequisites for a flexible and fulfilling life. Herriot teaches that prioritizing how time is spent can accelerate the path to meaningful freedom, rather than waiting decades for traditional financial independence. He advocates combining flexible, purposeful work with strategic saving and investing to enable individuals to take extended breaks without sacrificing career satisfaction or financial security. "Time Freedom" has received recognition from industry leaders, including Cal Newport, author of "Slow Productivity" and "Deep Work," and Mike Michalowicz.
Herriot is a financial advisor, speaker, and founder of three businesses, and has been featured in Fast Company for his approach to achieving time freedom while maintaining a professional career. The Time Freedom Formula, his core framework, offers an alternative to the traditional financial freedom model and the scale-and-sell entrepreneurship path. Herriot promotes the concept of meaningful freedom, guiding clients to develop lifestyle plans that emphasize time, purpose, and flexibility. His approach blends strategic planning with practical guidance for balanced living.
As host of "The Time Freedom Podcast," Herriot explores the intersection of work, money, and intentional living. He addresses business owners, early retirement planners, and professionals seeking greater control over their time, providing actionable strategies for rethinking the relationship between time and financial success.
