Personal Notes

I started this business because a major life event in 2018 made me realize I had absolutely nothing to show for the last 4 years I had been working. I had two degrees from internationally renowned universities and a good job in a good industry but no savings, no investments and was still pretty much living hand to mouth hoping to make it till my next paycheck.

I had thought my finances would eventually just come together, but after 4 years of still not having my financial life in order, I decided to get really intentional about it.

The only problem was, even though I really really wanted to do this, I couldn’t figure out how, where to start, and if it could even be possible for me. After making what felt like an endless amount of mistakes, I finally found a strategy that worked (which has informed the majority of my offering).

What surprised me was how many other people were in the same position I was, struggling in silence because they felt ‘behind’ and like everyone else had it figured out.

I started this business because I wanted to blow away the shame, fear and anxiety a lot of Millennials and Gen-Z’s have around money and also help people break out of being ‘stuck’ and move into having the financial health they always wanted for themselves.
