YNAB Coaching


I coach because I believe
financial empowerment is key to unlocking personal potential.

I’m passionate about helping others remove the stress and shame around money management. I want to help you gain financial clarity and confidence.
I believe that with the right guidance, everyone can create a financial plan that aligns with values, manages their unique circumstances, and permanently changes your relationship with money.

Coaching gives me the opportunity to share
- the tools,
- strategies, and
- mindset shifts
that helped me take control of my own finances with you.

My goal is to inspire others to step into their financial power,
make intentional choices,
and create the life they truly want.

About

I grew up in a patriarchal family where, financial decisions were not shared equally. Women didn’t work outside the home and they
definitely didn't participate in financial matters and decisions.
As a teenager, I watched my mother and other women around me struggle to support
themselves without men. I knew I wanted something different for myself.

My husband and I agreed that sharing financial decision, and goals was important.
We committed to creating a financial plan that would give us both confidence.
As my kids grew older and my husband took on more job responsibilities,
I took over managing the household budget.
It made sense because I had more flexible time, and handling the budget was the ultimate accountability.

We both knew everything about all our bills, debts, savings, and investments, but accountability was lacking.
We often bought first and tracked the spending later, which created conflict and disorganization around our finances.
.........
Something needed to change.
In 2016, I found YNAB, and though my husband hesitated about paying for an app to manage our cash flow, I needed better tools.

YNAB transformed our approach to money, shifting us to proactive
planning and spending.
It didn't take long before we were both using the app together and consistently.
While I still handle most of the monthly "maintenance",
we both feel confident and in control our finances and our future.
