A Marine, a monk, and a money manager walk into a bar... actually, they are all the same person. Doug Lynam's career path has been wilder than a roller coaster designed by Salvador Dali on a sugar high—from Marine Officer Candidate School to twenty years as a Benedictine monk, before emerging from monastic life to become a financial advisor, business coach, keynote speaker, and bestselling author.
His two books, "From Monk to Money Manager" and "Taming Your Money Monster: Nine Paths to Money Mastery with the Enneagram," revolutionize how we understand our relationship with money. His popular TEDx talk on finding purpose in wealth has garnered over 400,000 views.
Doug's insights have been featured on CNBC, The New York Times, and major financial publications. He now serves as a financial advisor at Innovative Advisory Group, working with clients from Hollywood superstars to impact-driven organizations. His unconventional journey earned him a private audience with Pope Francis in 2022 and established him as a leading voice on the intersection of wealth, meaning, and purpose.
