We're kalivorentra: People Who Actually Care About Your Financial Journey

Started in 2017 when a small group of financial advisors in Western Sydney decided there had to be a better way to help everyday Australians manage their money without the jargon and runaround.

How We Got Here

The founder, Petra Caldwell, spent fifteen years working at one of those big finance firms where everything felt... disconnected. Clients would come in confused about their options, leave still confused, and she'd watch them make decisions they didn't fully understand.

So she left. Gathered a few like-minded colleagues who were equally fed up with the status quo. We set up shop in Acacia Gardens and built something different from the ground up.

Now we're a team of twelve. Each person here has worked in traditional finance and walked away because they wanted to actually help people. That's not marketing talk—it's just what happened.

What Drives Us Every Day

These aren't poster values. They're the things we talk about when we're reviewing client cases.

Plain Language

If we can't explain your financial options in a way your teenager would understand, we're not doing our job. No hiding behind complexity.

Time Matters

We return calls within four hours during business days. When you email at 10pm worried about something, you'll get a reply by morning. Your anxiety doesn't wait for convenient business hours.

Real Conversations

You'll never feel like we're reading from a script. Because we're not. Every situation is different, and cookie-cutter advice wastes everyone's time.

Meet Someone From Our Team

We're not going to list everyone here with polished headshots and impressive credentials. But here's someone who represents how we approach client relationships.

Freja Lindström

Senior Financial Advisor

Freja joined us in 2019 after spending eight years at one of the major banks. She specializes in helping families navigate the messy middle—when you're juggling mortgage payments, kids' education savings, and trying to figure out if you'll ever actually retire. What clients appreciate most is that she remembers details from conversations months ago and follows up on things without being prompted.

How We Work With Clients

Our process isn't revolutionary. It's just thorough and honest. Most people who come to us have tried managing things on their own or worked with someone who didn't really listen.

First Conversation

No pressure, no sales pitch. We spend about an hour understanding where you are and what's keeping you up at night financially.

Analysis Phase

We dig into your situation properly. This takes time because shortcuts lead to bad advice. Usually about two weeks.

Clear Recommendations

We present options with pros and cons for each. You decide what fits your life. We're advisors, not decision-makers.

Ongoing Support

Check-ins every quarter, or whenever you need us. Life changes, plans adjust. That's normal.

What You Can Expect From Us

We're not perfect. Sometimes we need to say "I don't know, let me research that" because your situation is unique. What we promise is genuine effort to understand your circumstances and provide advice that makes sense for your actual life—not some textbook scenario. Every client gets direct access to their advisor's mobile number. Because when you're worried about money, you shouldn't have to navigate a phone tree.
