Curtis Hearn is a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER professional, Certified Exit Planning Advisor (CEPA), and the founder of DeepRiver Wealth, a bespoke financial planning and wealth management firm based in Atlanta, Georgia. With over two decades of experience, Curtis specializes in guiding small business owners, executives, and everyday millionaires toward financial independence, helping them navigate complex financial landscapes with clarity and confidence. His passion for exit planning stems from a deeply personal experience. Curtis was an owner in a boutique wealth management firm he helped build over more than a decade. After burning out from 80-hour workweeks and the stress of wearing too many hats, he faced an unexpected turning point when the firm’s founder decided to sell. The sale process was a whirlwind of challenges—due diligence, earn-outs, and a loss of control—all of which left Curtis with invaluable insights into the inner workings of a business exit. This experience ignited his mission to help other business owners avoid the pitfalls he encountered and achieve successful exits that secure their financial futures. Curtis’s journey to financial expertise didn’t start early. Before entering the financial services industry, he struggled with personal finances—accumulating tens of thousands of dollars in student loan debt and making rash, uninformed decisions, like buying a car with a double-digit interest rate. These humbling lessons fueled his determination to master financial planning, leading him to earn an MBA and certifications as a CFP professional and CEPA professional. Today, he blends technical expertise with empathy, drawing on his own missteps and lessons learned to connect with clients. Beyond his work at DeepRiver Wealth, Curtis enjoys supporting Atlanta’s vibrant sports scene, spending time with family and friends, and staying active outdoors. He also enjoys giving back through his church and community events. He remains committed to empowering small business owners to break free from the “entrepreneurship trap” and build legacies that endure.
