It’s 3am and you’re staring at the ceiling wondering how you’re going to pay that $800 surprise vet bill
You swore this would be the year you’d get your finances in order, but life got in the way. you….
Feel exhausted trying to make a plan when your brain is already fried from, well, everything else.
Wonder how it is you’re making a decent income but still end up with little to save.
Open your credit card statement with a pit in your stomach because you’re afraid of what you’ll see.
Keep draining your savings when life throws another curveball — wishing you were more prepared.
Feel frustrated with yourself - and sometimes with your partner - causing stress in your relationship.
IF YOU WANT TO STOP STRESSING ABOUT MONEY, YOU need TO CHANGE YOUR APPROACH
The reasons Why you still Feel Stuck
Most people trying to “fix” their money fall into one of three camps:
CAMP 1: PARALYZED
You know you should do something about your money. You’re overwhelmed and afraid of choosing the “wrong” approach, so you pick nothing. You keep promising yourself you’ll deal with it next month. And you stay stuck…
CAMP 2: WINGING IT
Money comes in. Bills go out. You hope there’s enough left at the end of the month to save. There’s no real plan — just mental math, crossed fingers, and reacting to whatever pops up next. And you wonder why you can’t get ahead.
CAMP 3: PATCHWORKING
You have a system… kind of. A budget here. A savings account there. An old spreadsheet. A half-used app. A few rules you try to follow. But it all feels duct-taped together — and every unexpected expense knocks things off track.
Here’s what these approaches have in common: None of help you take control of your money.
You need a simple, strategic system that does the heavy lifting for you and someone that walks you through exactly what to do.
That’s exactly what Financial Coaching does.

taking control of your finances doesn’t have to mean giving up everything you love
“I actually celebrate the money i do spend on myself now.”
“I was operating from a place of scarcity, feeling like i didn't have money to spend on extra things. Now, even if it is a small purchase such a coffee or a book, I feel a new freedom to revel in that spend and truly enjoy it, rather than letting guilty feelings zap my energy and joy.”
— Lisa J., Paint Color Specialist
Managing your money is like playing the piano with two hands. One hand is your numbers and systems—the practical skill. The other is your Money Personality, money stories, and money mindset—the unconscious motivations driving every choice you make. If you only play with one hand, the music never quite sounds right.
For 20+ years, I’ve helped thousands of people radically improve their finances by teaching them to use both. You don’t need more willpower or a stricter budget; you need to understand the hidden patterns behind your behavior to fix your finances from the inside out.
When you align your "two hands," managing money becomes simpler, less stressful, and more natural. You'll save more, improve relationships, get rid of debt for good, and be able to spend more on what you love—without the guilt.
