Individual Coaching

First of all, what is financial coaching?

Financial coaching is all about the future, behavior, and daily habits.

As a financial coach, I am like a personal trainer for your wallet. We won’t just look at the numbers on a spreadsheet; we will look at you – the person behind the numbers. I sit on the same side of the table (literally or figuratively) as you to help you build your financial knowledge, bridge the gap between what you know you should do and what you actually do, and create sustainable daily habits.

Instead of doing the work for you or telling you exactly what to do, I focus on:

• Behavior Change: Unpacking your relationship with money, identifying spending triggers, and shifting mindsets.
• Actionable Strategy: Helping you build practical, realistic systems for budgeting, saving, getting out of debt, and setting up an emergency fund.
• Accountability: Keeping you on track with your self-defined goals, celebrating wins, and troubleshooting when life gets sideways.

What about “solo parent life and resilience” coaching?

This coaching provides you with an objective partner to share challenges with, provide a sounding board, identify your strengths and work on strategies together to walk along your journey as a solo parent. I act as the neutral listener I always needed as solo parent and never had because I was afraid to burden others with my journey (and we can discuss that perspective too!)

Ultimately, through any kind of coaching relationship we embark on:

I offer a friendly, non‑judgmental space where you can share your fears and concerns about your situation without shame. Together, we’ll look what concerns you — not to judge, but to understand what’s really going on and find answers that are already with you, just underneath the surface!

My role is to be a calm sounding board and guide as you shift out of survival mode. We’ll clarify your goals, notice the thoughts and behaviors that keep getting in the way, and create a practical, compassionate plan for moving forward. At the center of it all is you—whether it’s building financial security or thoughtful practices that fit your life – one thoughtful, steady step at a time.
