Company Profile

Family, business and helping others is the driving force behind Stacey and John Aarssen. Both coming from family businesses, they know what it takes to run a successful business. Planning is an integral part of all aspects of personal and business financial growth. Spending 17 years in the financial service industry has given them a platform to ensure clients are given the best options available.

Our mission is to create financial peace of mind for individuals and business owners. We do this by educating, empowering and guiding you, throughout your financial life cycle.

Our Vision is to be the leader in wealth management services, systems, and solutions. Improving the financial wellbeing of individuals and businesses manifests into a better community, economy, and sustainability.

We do this because we see debt is growing per household, cash flow is out of control, small businesses are failing, and retirement goals are not being met.

With proper planning, debt can be reduced, cash flow can get under control, and financial goals can be met. The old saying “It takes a village to raise a child”, a similar statement can be used in the financial planning world. It takes a team to ensure goals are met, and strategies put in place. The team at Path2Wealth are here to ensure these plans are put in place.

Stacey Aarssen

Growing up in an entrepreneur family, Stacey learned that education and business support is important to planning your future. Her Dad’s retirement was his business and when that business didn’t survive the changes in the economy neither did his retirement plan. This integral part of Stacey’s past is a key factor to ensure her clients are educated with the options to create a successful outcome.

Stacey’s sixteen years as a financial advisor, and her 25 years working in the family business has led her to working specifically with business owners. She’s discovered that the years of 2020 and 2021 has changed the way many businesses operate. Employee retention and attraction is more important than ever. Having a health benefit solution that fits the company culture and keeps the bottom line in tack is a must, to stay competitive.

Stacey is a member of CGIB (Canadian Group Insurance Brokers) and helps many business owners with their employee benefits and life insurance needs, especially in the corporate space.

Stacey is married to her best friend and business partner John and together they have three beautiful daughters with families of their own. She spends her spare time travelling when she’s able to and loves biking and hiking. She loves sharing her life experiences with groups like Elizabeth Fry Toronto, to support women, who value her positive attitude and encouraging words.
