About Robert Lawson
About Robert Lawson

Growing up in eastern Kentucky taught Rob several important lessons: to love his fellow Kentuckians and to have their back. This is demonstrated daily in his support for charitable causes benefitting these communities, his life’s work in financial planning, and the love he has for his family.


Always the ‘steady one’, Rob possesses innate leadership qualities which serve him well as a Wealth Advisor at Thrivent, a Board Member with both the Christian Appalachian Project and Habitat for Humanity of Lexington and coaching of his son’s sporting events. Aside from these important responsibilities, Rob also loves his University of Kentucky Wildcats and has a fondness for things starting with the letter ‘B’: boxing, barbecue, bourbon, and Brittany.


Rob is proud to be a Thrivent financial professional. He provides personalized financial guidance to people at all stages of life. At Thrivent, we view money not as a goal, but as a tool — one that can afford you a life rich in meaning and gratitude. We believe humanity thrives when individuals make the most of all they've been given. He is here to help you do just that.

Team Newsletter
Team Newsletter

Check out the latest edition of our team’s newsletter here!


One thing we've learned over the years is that there never seems to be enough time during meetings to share everything we'd like. There's always another story, office update, community event, planning idea, or lesson left for "next time." That's exactly why we created this newsletter.


Inside this issue, you'll find:

  • Updates from around the IWA office
  • Upcoming events and important planning dates
  • Ways Thrivent members can make an impact


Whether you're interested in financial planning ideas, community involvement, or simply getting to know our team a little better, we hope you'll find something worthwhile inside.

Thank you for being part of the IWA family. We truly appreciate the trust you've placed in us and look forward to staying connected.

Please Join Me in Welcoming Bryan Baker I'm excited to share that Bryan Baker has joined the Inspired Wealth Advisors team as an Associate Financial Advisor. What immediately stood out to me about Bryan is his heart for teaching and helping others grow. Before entering the financial services industry, Bryan earned a degree in Early Childhood Education from Ashland University, and he believes that background translates naturally into helping people navigate one of the most important and least formally taught areas of life: money. Bryan joins us after spending time as a virtual advisor with Thrivent and seven years with Schwab. Outside of work, he enjoys running, playing guitar, hosting game nights, hiking, traveling with his wife and children, and cheering on the Cleveland Browns. He's also a licensed pastor who enjoys preaching, officiating weddings, and serving his community. One of the things Bryan shared with me is that he loves helping people prepare for and achieve their goals. That servant mindset, combined with a genuine passion for relationships and education, makes him a wonderful addition to our team. Bryan, welcome to Inspired Wealth Advisors. I'm excited to see the impact you'll have on our clients, our team, and the communities we serve.

Excited to Share Something New One of the most rewarding parts of my work is the relationships I have the privilege of building with clients and their families. Over the years, I've often found that there are stories, community projects, lessons learned, and office updates that never quite make it into a meeting conversation. That's what inspired our first Inspired Wealth Advisors Newsletter. Inside, you'll find team updates, community impact stories, planning insights, upcoming events, and a few fun surprises along the way. It’s designed to be another touchpoint that helps keep us connected between meetings and gatherings. This is the first of what I hope will become a new tradition, with both a Spring and Fall newsletter each year. Read the newsletter here: https://www.thrivent.com/inspired-wealth-team-newsletter I'd sincerely appreciate it if you'd take a look and let me know what you think. As with anything new, feedback is one of the best ways to make future editions even better. Thank you for being part of the IWA family. ❤️
Join us at an upcoming eventWe’d love to have the opportunity to meet you. We host financial workshops, volunteer opportunities and Thrivent market updates.
