About Joshua Mashburn

Hi, I’m Josh Mashburn — and I believe financial guidance is most powerful when it begins with understanding your story.

As a Financial Advisor with Thrivent, I’m committed to walking alongside individuals and families as they navigate life’s opportunities, challenges, and transitions. I know that finances aren’t just numbers—they’re deeply connected to your goals, your values, and the people who matter most to you.

A Relationship First Approach to Financial Guidance

My approach is rooted in listening first. Whether you’re building a strong foundation, preparing for retirement, or looking to be more intentional with your generosity, I’m here to support informed decision making every step of the way. My goal is to make planning feel less overwhelming and more empowering, giving you the tools and support to make decisions you feel good about—today and long into the future.

Living and working in the Athens community, I’m grateful for the opportunity to serve my neighbors by helping them build financial strategies that reflect what they care about. I’m here not just as an advisor, but as a partner who genuinely cares about your well‑being, your peace of mind, and your long‑term success.

Let's Connect

If you’re looking for guidance that’s personal, grounded, and focused on what truly matters to you, I’d be honored to connect and learn more about your journey.
