Here’s How I Can Help You Get Your $hit Together

My Story

I’ve been empowering women for over 20 years. I’ve worked as an academic advisor in higher education, Financial Advisor for high- net- worth individuals, and today I’m a money coach for women looking to get their financial lives together. What makes me qualified to help women like you is not my work experience. I’ve had to learn how to get my own financial life together after almost losing everything. Over the past decade, I’ve learned for myself what it really takes to make dreams come true, and it is not like Instagram would like you to believe it is (no beaches or unicorns here). It’s with my trained industry knowledge and personal experiences that I am helping my clients shed the shame and guilt around their finances by rewiring how they think about money and using a strategic financial framework that’s focused around healthy spending instead of restricted budgeting so they can enjoy their lives while building their wealth.

It wasn’t until I nearly went broke and lost everything that I had no choice as a financial advisor to make some much needed mindset and financial changes in my life.  Even as a financial advisor there were things about money that I had never really understood or been taught simply enough to be able to have the kind of financial life that I wanted. I’m a blue-collared girl. I don’t aspire to have a mansion or drive a Ferrari, I wanted simple things (like so many of the successful and passionate women I work with) like savings and money working toward retirement with safety and security so that my son could also feel safe and secure and that he didn’t have to stress about money like I did growing up.

I officially left my firm as a financial advisor in 2016 because I realized that I could make a difference for women as a Personal Finance Coach. As soon as I made the change I knew I was in the right laneand my business took off. But my financial struggles were real. From being at the top of my game in 2011 to burning through $100,000 to start my own business, I had to reinvent myself through financial failure and divorce. It’s the simple strategies and tools that I learned along the way that helped me get my $hit together.

And I want to be able to support YOU in creating whatever it is you want in your life – without feeling like you’re on an island or that you’re being asked to work within stuffy and rigid budgets and give everything up to have what you want.

Today, you can see me on CNBC, NBC News, MSN Money, O – The Oprah Magazine, Fortune, and Entrepreneur Magazine, and more. I am a best-selling author and the host of the Real Money podcast. Learning how to handle my own personal financial struggles helped me discover how to live my best life, free from money stress and worry – that’s how I know I can help you, too.
