I help women transform their relationship with money and achieve financial sobriety.
Being addicted to spending money is something I know all too well. I don't remember a time in my life that I wasn't emotionally spending money until I started my financial recoveryā„ .
I worked in the banking industry for over 20 years and was a Financial Advisor who was helping people with how to grow their money and I was stuck in a horrible cycle of patterns and behaviours that kept me so in debt, angry, sad, stressed and shameful.
My relationship with alcohol ended on March 17, 2014. This was the best decision I have ever made for myself (oh and marrying my husband).
3 years into my sobriety I realized that my spending addiction was out of control.
The feelings I used to numb with alcohol were now being numbed out with spending money. This is called addiction transference.
I was having a conversation with my mentor and we were talking about the idea to be a money coach and a recovery coach. I told her this was a joke as I was a financial mess. What she said next changed my life - "sometimes you need to teach what you learn".
I hired my own money coach and the transformation I experienced was mind blowing. I knew I needed to do this work and help support women in recovery so embarked on getting certified as a Money Coach, Professional Recovery Coach and She Recovers® Coach.
My business has been my passion and have been a Certified Money Coach© who supports women in recovery since 2017.
Every day I meet with women who are ready to change their money story.
Money doesn't have to be heavy. I help break the cycles of overspending, wracking up debt and beating yourself up over it.
I have walked this path and create a judgement free zone.
I would love to support you on your journey to financial sobriety. You are so worth it!
