Sound familiar?

Smart, successful, and still stressed about money

  • You make good money, but it's gone before the next paycheck.
  • You feel behind compared to people your age.
  • A surprise car repair or the holiday season wipes out your progress.
  • You've tried budgets and apps, and none of them stuck.
  • You and your partner aren't on the same page about money.
  • You keep hoping the next raise or bonus will finally fix it.

You’re not alone, and it’s not your fault

When I speak to rooms full of smart, successful professionals and ask who stresses about money or feels behind, almost every hand goes up.

I know that feeling, because that was me. Even with six-figure incomes, my husband and I were carrying more than $200,000 in debt.

That’s when I learned that making good money and working hard does not equal financial freedom.

We paid off the debt. As friends and coworkers started asking how we did it, those conversations became The Money Chica, and they’re why I created this program.

That’s what I want for you. And you don’t have to figure it out alone.

What you'll walk away with

By April, money feels calm, clear, and planned

  • A clear picture of exactly where your money is going
  • A simple system that runs on payday and takes about 15 minutes
  • Money set aside for surprise expenses, so they stop being emergencies
  • The skill to plan months ahead, not just until the next paycheck
  • Habits that stick, with a community cheering you on
  • Confidence and peace of mind in place of money stress

Most clients tell me that around the second or third month, they stop thinking about money constantly.

Questions

Good to know

Do I need to be good with numbers?

Not at all. I build your Money Plan spreadsheet for you, and every lesson walks you through each step. If you can check your bank app, you can do this.

Can my partner join with me?

Yes! Couples join together for the same price. We build your Money Plan around your shared finances, so you can finally get on the same page.

What if I miss a group call?

Every call is recorded and saved in Circle, so you can watch the replay anytime.

Do I need a computer?

No. Circle works on your computer and as a free app on your phone.

How do the payment plans work?

Your total is split into equal monthly payments that end in April. The earlier you join, the more months you have, so each payment is smaller. Prefer one payment? Pay in full and save $91 on Basic or $191 on VIP.

Does this cover business finances?

No. This program focuses on your personal finances. If your business and personal money are tangled together, book a free call and we’ll talk about it.

Is this financial advice?

No. This is financial coaching and education. I don't give investment, tax, or legal advice.

“The hardest step was saying, ‘Hey, I need help.’ But once you get over it and do it, it’s such a relief.”Gloria, Money Made Simple client

You don't need to have it all figured out, you just need to start.
