About Nick & Sarah Davis

Certified Exit Planning Advisors | Fee-Only Financial Planners| Business Strategy Guides

Hello, we’re Nick and Sarah! We’re passionate about helping business owners and their families with planning strategies designed to support long-term business, financial and personal goals. Our advisory work focuses on exit planning, business strategy, personal growth, and legacy protection, while our coaching work focuses on personal development through our separate business AnxietyWise.

To maintain clarity and transparency, the sections below outline which services we provide as part of our investment advisory practice and which services are offered separately through our outside business activity (OBA).

Our Approach to Financial Planning

We believe financial planning goes far beyond just numbers—it requires understanding your goals, clarifying decisions, and aligning your business and personal finances.  Whether you're planning for an exit strategy, building a strong business structure, developing a comprehensive personal financial plan, or protecting your estate, we help business owners organize their planning, prepare for future transitions, and build strategies that support long-term priorities. 

Our process emphasizes education, structure, and informed decision-making so clients can move forward with clarity and confidence.

Our Advisory Focus:

    • Certified Exit Planning Advisor (CEPA): With both of us holding the CEPA designation, we specialize in working with business owners to develop clear, actionable exit plans , ensure a smooth transition, and plan for how your business legacy continues. This includes clarifying objectives, assessing planning considerations, and coordinating with legal, tax and other professionals. 
    • Legacy Protection: We help clients understand common estate and business-continuity strategies like life insurance, estate planning, and strategies to help you plan for the future of your business, whether you decide to sell it or continue growing it. 
  • Business Strategy & Growth Planning: We guide business owners through organizational planning, operational structure, and alignment between personal and business goals especially for those planning for long-term succession or a possible sale.
  • Trend-Following Investment Philosophy: For clients who engage us for investment advisory services, we  incorporate trend-following principles as part of our investment approach.  Trend-following involves adjusting exposure based on market conditions. It’s a strategy built on simplicity, consistency, and data-driven decision making. All investment strategies involve risk, including the potential loss of principal, and no strategy can guarantee success or prevent loss. 

Who We Work With

Our ideal clients are business owners and real-estate investors who value structure, education and proactive planning. Many of our clients are preparing for future transitions, growth stages, or long-term personal financial organization. 

If you’re exploring ways to gain clarity in your planning, we welcome a conversation.

Beyond Financial Planning: AnxietyWise (Outside Business Activity)

(Not advisory services. Not supervised by Blueprint Financial Advisors.)

In addition to our financial planning work, we also run a separate business called AnxietyWise. Here, we work with high-performing professionals to help them gain clarity around their purpose and release past traumas, negative emotional roots, and behavioral patterns that hold them back. Through these processes, we empower our clients to perform at their peak potential, become strong communicators, and find fulfillment both at home and in their careers.

These services do not involve financial planning, investment advice, or advisory recommendations and are operated independently from our advisory practice.

Our “WHY’s” and What Drives Us

Both of us are driven by deeper motivations that guide the way we work with our clients and approach every project:

  • Nick’s WHY: My core motivation is to contribute to the greater good by making sense of complicated concepts. I enjoy making sense of complex information so that others can easily grasp and execute it. What I seek in return is trust—because trust is the foundation of everything we do, and it’s how we build lasting, meaningful relationships with our clients.
  • Sarah’s WHY: I am driven by the need to simplify situations and projects, always looking for a better way to solve problems and make life easier. My goal is to share these simplified solutions with others, creating trust and fostering deep, long-lasting relationships. Trust is central to my work and allows me to connect with clients on a personal level while helping them achieve their goals.

A Little About Us

When we’re not working with clients, you’ll likely find us enjoying the outdoors—boating on the lake, snowboarding in the winter, or hunting and fishing with our family. Most importantly, at the front of everything we do is Jesus Christ and our Christian faith. In addition, Sarah loves baking, gardening, flowers, and hobby farming, while Nick is an Air Force veteran who’s passionate about building strong teams and collaborating with others in both personal and professional settings. We love what we do because we know the value of great coaching and the incredible impact it has on all areas of life. 

Let’s Get Started

We believe in the power of trust and personal connection. If you're exploring ways to strengthen your business planning, long-term strategy, or personal development, we would love to connect with you..

We Believe:

Our job is to carry the weight for our clients.

Before becoming a financial advisor, Founding Partner Nick Davis served in the U.S. Air Force and later worked in corporate aviation, including inspecting planes. He understood what was at stake when he deemed a plane safe to fly, just like he understands what’s at stake when he provides financial coaching for a client of Hemlock Creek Wealth Management.

Financial planning isn’t life or death in the same sense, but there’s still a great deal on the line for our clients, and it’s not a burden we take lightly. We want you to have peace of mind that the financial planning work we’ve done together will help you maintain and maximize everything you’ve worked so hard for in the years to come.

Goals lead to victories.

In her former role as a physical therapist, Founding Partner Sarah Davis had to understand each patient’s situation, identify an end goal to accomplish, and develop a strategy to get there. Her job was to help patients navigate challenges on their journey while keeping them focused on the individual steps that would lead to victory.

Financial planning is similar. The Hemlock Creek Wealth Management team helps clients identify their individual obstacles and opportunities, stay motivated, and stay on the path that is likely to lead to their ultimate vision of success.

Experience beats theory.

The road to financial freedom for Nick Davis and Sarah Davis was paved with lessons learned the hard way. Early in their adult lives, before they were financial advisors, each had significant life challenges that upended their financial plans and security. Although those hard times weren’t easy, they learned a lot about how to better maximize and protect their wealth.

If the Davises knew then what they know now, they could have avoided some struggles. Yet, they view these experiences as important parts of their journeys, as well as ones that allow the Hemlock Creek Wealth Management team to offer experience-based guidance and advice.

Grit is gratifying.

Sarah Davis grew up on a working beef cattle farm in Ashburnham, MA, where both her parents maintained the family farm in addition to managing professional careers. Long days and persistent challenges were the norm, and she learned how to reap the rewards of steadfast determination.

Today, she and Nick Davis maintain this passion for problem solving and hearty effort as they guide clients through their own challenges and victories.

The best success is not our own.

Service – to country, family, and community – are common threads in the histories of Nick Davis and Sarah Davis, which instilled in them a belief that serving others is truly life’s greatest reward. They love God, family, and their country. They also delight in helping people understand where they are, where they want to be, and how to maximize their greatness.

The Hemlock Creek Wealth Management team is incredibly honored to do what we do, which is why we’ll never grow our business beyond what we can manage personally.

Our Name

A Symbol of the Impact We Strive to Create

Hemlock trees represent the very character of our firm. They’re steadfast and enduring, living for hundreds of years by adapting to life’s storms and seasons. They’re a beautiful symbol that reminds us to hold fast to our roots, yet be willing to bend and sway as circumstances change.

We continually guide our clients and friends through the shifting seasons of life, and we love that the journey is as timeless and durable as nature itself.

Our clients are never a number to us; they’re the heart and soul of our practice, and our mission is to support them with the grace, strength, and flexibility of these magnificent trees.


"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres." —1 Corinthians 13:4-8
