About StewardRight
Built in Wichita. Built for the long term. Independent, fee-based, and full-fiduciary since 2017.
Built in Wichita. Built for the Long Term.
StewardRight was founded on a straightforward idea: most people deserve better financial advice than they're getting.
They deserve advice from someone who isn't being paid to push a particular product. From someone who takes the time to understand their actual life before recommending anything. From someone who tells them the truth even when the truth is inconvenient.
That's what we set out to build in 2017, and it's what we've been doing from our office at 515 S Main St in downtown Wichita ever since.
We're a Registered Investment Adviser. We're fee-based. We're full-fiduciary. And we're independent — no affiliation with any bank, insurance company, or fund family. The advice you get from us is ours.
Our Approach: Life-Centered Financial Planning
We use a term you won't hear many places: Life-Centered Financial Planning.
What we mean by it is simple. A financial plan should be built around the life you want to live — not backward from an account balance. Most financial planning starts with money: what do you have, what rate of return do we assume, what do the projections say. We start with the person: what does a good life look like for you, what are you protecting, what are you building toward?
The numbers still matter. But they serve the life, not the other way around.
This isn't just philosophy. It shows up in how we meet with clients, how we structure plans, and how we think about the tradeoffs involved in any financial decision.
Our Team
Mike founded StewardRight after spending years in the financial services industry and growing frustrated with a system that prioritized product sales over client outcomes. He's a Certified Financial Planner® with the RICP® (Retirement Income Certified Professional) designation — one of the most rigorous credentials specifically focused on retirement income planning.
He's also a Certified Value Growth Advisor, which informs how he works with business owner clients on value creation and exit planning. Mike grew up in Kansas and has been serving local families and businesses from the same downtown office since the firm's founding in 2017.
Lyndon brings the CFP® designation along with the Certified Kingdom Advisor credential, which is grounded in principles of stewardship, purpose-driven wealth, and long-term legacy planning. His work with clients reflects a belief that financial decisions have meaning beyond the numbers — and that a good financial plan should reflect what actually matters to the people it serves.
Bryan brings 12 years of commodity brokerage experience to the team. Having worked extensively in futures and commodity markets, he brings a practical, markets-oriented perspective to portfolio management and investment strategy — particularly for clients with agricultural, energy, or business interests.
Bryan leads our Pagosa Springs, Colorado office and is the primary contact for clients in the Colorado market. You can reach him directly at (970) 261-0313 or [email protected].
Why We Work the Way We Do
A lot of people have had a bad experience with financial services. They bought a product they didn't fully understand. They paid fees they didn't know about. They got sold instead of advised.
We built StewardRight to be different — structurally, not just in attitude.
The fiduciary standard isn't something we talk about to sound impressive. It's a legal obligation. When we give you advice, we are required to put your interests first. When there's a conflict of interest, we disclose it. When we don't know something, we tell you.
Fee-based compensation removes the structural incentive to sell. We're paid by you — not by financial product companies — which means our recommendation calculus is based on what's right for your situation.
Independent means we're not captive to any platform, fund family, or insurance company. We can recommend any solution that makes sense for you.
