When people ask what LUCEM means, I smile.

In Latin, it means light. But for me — it’s much more personal.

It’s made up of the names of the three people who are my light:
💫 Luciana, Celeste, and Mauricio.

They’re the reason I do what I do. When I started in the financial industry nearly 20 years ago, I quickly realized how cold it could feel, so focused on numbers, targets, and transactions. And that never felt right to me.

I’m a heart-guided person. I care deeply about people, their dreams, their families, their stories, not just their portfolios.

That’s why I created LUCEM Financial: to build a space where wealth planning could feel human, holistic, and heart-centered.

Where clients aren’t treated like accounts, but like people who deserve peace, clarity, and light in their financial journey.

Because when your work aligns with your heart, abundance follows.

And when your wealth aligns with your values, legacy begins. ✨

I’m Carolina Henao, Founder of LUCEM Financial — and I help you let your light lead your wealth, so your wealth can lead your impact.

Planning for the future isn’t about fear — it’s about love. 💛
I’ve seen families with wealth, businesses, and beautiful intentions… but without a will or Powers of Attorney, everything becomes complicated when life changes suddenly.

A will is not about money — it’s about care.
It’s how you say “I love you” to your family in a language they’ll understand when you’re no longer there to speak it.

Here’s what most people don’t realize:
✔️ Without a Will, courts decide who gets what.
✔️ Without a Power of Attorney, no one can legally handle your finances if you’re ill.
✔️ Without clarity, even strong families can face stress and conflict.

✨ A Will is love. Insurance is love. Planning is love.

Because real abundance isn’t just what you have — it’s what you protect.

Let’s have a conversation and see where you can continue to support your loved ones in the future.

Before you write new goals, take a quiet moment to thank the money that supported you this year. ✨

It helped you feed your family.
Build your business.
Give back.
Heal.
Grow.

Gratitude shifts everything.
When you see your money as something that’s already serving you, you stop leading from scarcity — and start leading from peace.

Here’s a little reflection I share with my clients:
🕯️ Write down three ways your money supported you this year.
💫 Then write one intention for how you want it to support you differently next year.
Because money that’s appreciated… appreciates.
It grows in energy, opportunity, and ease.

Save this, share it and keep following along for more Wealth Talk from the heart!

Before December 31st, there are a few simple but powerful things you can do to end the year strong.

Here’s your “Use It or Lose It” checklist:

✅ Max out your RRSP to lower this year’s taxable income by February 28th

✅ Use any health or dental benefits before they expire

✅ Review insurance coverage and beneficiaries.

✅ Make charitable donations to get your 2025 tax credit.

These aren’t just tasks — they’re opportunities to finish your year with clarity, confidence, and care.

✨ Financial peace isn’t about doing everything. It’s about doing the right things at the right time.

Giving is a Wealth Strategy

This time of year, generosity is everywhere, but real giving starts long before the holidays.

When you align your donations with your values, giving becomes one of the most powerful financial strategies you’ll ever use. 💛

Here’s what most people don’t realize:
✔️ You can receive up to a 50% tax credit ( Federal and Provincial Combined) for charitable donations in Canada.

✔️ Donating securities instead of cash can help you avoid capital gains tax.

✔️ You can even name a charity in your will — turning kindness into legacy.

Money isn’t just about saving or earning more, it’s about directing it toward what matters most.

When you give with intention, you multiply your abundance, because your wealth begins to mirror your heart.

💙 Today, December 3rd, is the International Day of Persons with Disabilities.

It’s a day to celebrate inclusion, awareness, and empowerment, and to make sure we’re using every tool available to support the people we love.

One of those tools is the Registered Disability Savings Plan (RDSP) — a federal program that helps Canadians living with disabilities build long-term financial stability.

Here’s how it works:

✨ If the beneficiary qualifies for the Disability Tax Credit, they can open an RDSP.

✨ The government contributes up to $3,500 per year, and up to $90,000 total in grants and bonds.

✨ Contributions can be made until age 49.

Yet fewer than 40% of eligible Canadians have opened one — leaving millions of dollars in unused support.

The RDSP isn’t charity — it’s compassion in action.
It’s how we build dignity, independence, and peace of mind for those who need it most. 💙

What story did your money tell this year — peace or pressure?

Most people think financial literacy is about knowing products… but it’s really about knowing yourself.

Your habits, your goals, your patterns.

Here’s something most Ontarians don’t realize:

👉 Nearly 60% don’t have a written financial plan.

👉 Those who do are twice as confident about their future. (FP Canada, 2023)

So before the year ends, try this:
✨ Write down your short-term goals (6–12 months).

✨ Write your long-term goals (3–10 years).

✨ Review where your money actually went this year.

When your goals are written down, you can pivot with purpose — instead of reacting to stress or fear.

Your money story doesn’t need to be perfect. It just needs to be clear.
Because awareness gives you power, and power gives you peace.

💖 Frugality isn’t the goal. Freedom is.

I met a woman earning over $200K a year who whispered, “I feel guilty every time I spend on myself.”

We built a plan that covered her needs, protected her future, and gave her permission to enjoy her life.
Because abundance isn’t about hoarding—it’s about alignment.

✨ When your financial plan is grounded, joy becomes guilt-free.
Book the trip. Take the spa day. You’ve earned it.

💔 Divorce doesn’t just change your life—it reshapes your entire financial world.

I’ve seen it so many times: women left overwhelmed, unsure what’s theirs or what comes next.

Because money isn’t just survival—it’s self-respect, stability, and healing.
Your new chapter deserves a new plan.
