She started her first business at sixteen.

Not because she had a mentor who showed her the path. Not because her family had money to fall back on. Because she saw a problem that needed solving and she was the one standing there — and that has been true of every business she has ever built.

In the thirty years since, she has built multiple companies, raised six children as a single mother, and carried the exact weight her book is about — the lies, the self-doubt, the silence after the worst moments.

She has also lost everything. And rebuilt.

The Credentials

Arja Eggleston is a Certified Exit Planning Advisor (CEPA®) and California Registered Tax Preparer (CRTP), with a business degree in accounting from California State University and thirty years of experience in tax strategy, business structure, and exit planning. She has served more than 500 individual tax clients and over 100 business owners across multiple industries.

She founded Gravity Wealth to give minority and women business owners in Southern California and beyond access to the strategic clarity and credentialed guidance that she was never given — and spent decades figuring out on her own.

The GRAVITY Method™

The GRAVITY Method™ was not developed in a classroom. It was built across thirty years of real engagements, real clients, real losses, and real breakthroughs. Every phase reflects something she has lived, advised through, or rebuilt from.

The Book

She is the author of Own Your Options™: The Question That Changes Everything — the book that combines the GRAVITY Method™ with the deeper work of dismantling the beliefs that have been limiting her clients’ options all along.

She lives in Southern California. Her faith in God is the foundation of everything she builds. And she is still building.
