Hi Reader , I hope you're having a great week! I’m currently away enjoying some much-needed family time. We’re staying on a little island in Naivasha, here in Kenya — surrounded by giraffes, monkeys, gazelles, hippos… and yes, a few snakes too (but let’s not focus on those!). Spending intentional time together is something we deeply value. Instead of splurging on luxury items or regular dining out, we choose to save for experiences like these. It’s part of our WHY — to create memories together as a family. Having a clear WHY is what helps us stay aligned, focused, and committed to what truly matters — and I’ve seen time and time again how powerful that clarity can be in transforming not just your finances, but your whole life. So let me ask you — what’s your WHY? What keeps you motivated when things get tough? I’d genuinely love to know — feel free to reply to this email and share it with me. But if you’re spending money in ways that don’t really match what matters most to you — or you’re not even sure what that is — you’re not alone. That’s exactly what my new, two-part coaching session is here to help you with. Inside ‘Create an Intentional Spending Plan That You Can Stick To’, we’ll get clear on your personal priorities and build a simple, values-based plan for how you use your money — one that actually fits your life.
By the end of our sessions, you’ll walk away with:
This isn’t about cutting back for the sake of it. It’s about spending with purpose — and finally feeling like your money is working for you, not against you. I have a couple of spots open this coming week. So, if you’re ready to start being intentional with your hard earned cash, then click here to save your spot today! I can’t wait to support you! With love,

Hi Reader , If your finances feel a bit all over the place lately, you’re so not alone. The good news? You don’t need a total money makeover to start seeing progress — just a few smart, intentional steps. This is Part 1 of a short series where I’ll guide you through the very first things I get my coaching clients to do when they’re ready to get a handle on their finances. Let’s start with something powerful: Calculate your net worth - don’t worry — it’s not as scary as it sounds! Your net...
Dear Reader , Did you know that April marks Financial Literacy Month? It started in the U.S. but has grown into a global movement, encouraging people to take a closer look at their finances and make small but powerful changes. And there’s no better place to start than with your budget. I’ve learned over the years that managing money successfully comes down to three key things: ✔️ Always keep learning – Read, listen, and invest in yourself. But remember, knowledge is only powerful when you...
Hi Reader , This past week, our daughter won a school swimming race. No big deal, you might think—it’s not the Olympics. But for her, it was a huge moment. Gold! Just four weeks ago, she was on the hockey team. She loved hockey and had been playing for three years, showing up rain or shine—whether it was a 6am practise or a 7pm match. No matter how tough it got, she kept going, determined to improve and be a team player. But instead of lifting her up, her team tore her down. They blamed her...
