Somica Alexander
Financial Services Professional & Financial Literacy Advocate
Personal Notes
Having personally weathered the challenges of an overdrawn bank account, facing disconnection notices, and grappling with the consequences of bad credit due to reckless spending, I intimately understand the struggles many face. I’ve experienced the fear of homelessness, the constant worry, and the sleepless nights caused by financial uncertainty. Most importantly I know how it feels to not have anyone to call or reference for much needed advice and support.
I’ve not only endured these hardships, I’ve overcome them and they are the fuel for my dedication. I’ve emerged from those struggles stronger, and now I am here to share my journey. I am a living testament to the fact that financial circumstances can and will change with a proper plan, guidance, and consistent work.
My personal mission is to create a positive ripple effect, helping others overcome setbacks, navigate financial storms, and achieve their goals.
As a Financial Literacy Advocate and Financial Resilience Coach, I am committed to breaking down financial barriers, providing unwavering support, and fostering a community that makes informed decisions while confidently navigating life’s challenges.
Together, we will empower lives through financial wisdom, creating a lasting legacy of financial well-being.
