JESSICA NIEMINSKI is transforming the financial industry. Breaking barriers, she’s redefining the field with innovation and a strong commitment to empowering women to take control of their finances. At ClearPath Financial, an investment advisory service offered through SEC-registered investment firm Fortis Capital Advisors, LLC, she specializes in tax-saving solutions for divorcees, widows, and blended families, merging personal experiences with professional expertise. Nieminski ensures clients receive tailored, impactful financial advice that makes a difference.

Most rewarding part of what you do? There’s nothing better than seeing the relief on someone’s face when you’ve lifted a burden from their shoulders. It’s incredibly meaningful to help clients find clarity in their financial journey and watch them gain confidence in their future path.

Definition of success? Success isn’t about earnings or comparing yourself to others. It’s about having the confidence to be your authentic self, pursuing what you love, and inspiring others to do the same. It’s deeply personal— about being whole, staying true to yourself, and staying dedicated to your goals.

Best piece of advice for anyone starting out? Always focus on your long-term goals. Celebrate the small victories and let that positive momentum drive you forward. When you open your mind, the possibilities are endless. Whether financial, professional, or personal, we as women have the power to decide what comes next. Dream big, and then take action!

Greatest risk you’ve taken as a professional? After more than 30 years in business, we made the monumental decision to merge with Fortis Capital Advisors. This move has unlocked countless new opportunities for our clients and team members. We share a dynamic vision of what wealth management should be, and while change can be daunting, trusting your instincts is crucial. Embracing new possibilities means you won’t be left wondering what might have been.
