“Before 1:1 money coaching, I was anxious about money all the time. It seemed like no matter how much I made, how many side hustles I had, it didn’t matter because I was still living paycheck to paycheck. I felt a lot of shame and embarrassment about my student loan debt, my non-existent savings account, and my financial choices haunted me month to month. I’ve worked hard my whole life, and it wasn’t for this. After 1:1 money coaching, I have a significant savings account! I’ve learned to set financial goals and intentions without shame or “FOMO.” I’ve learned my emotions were highly tied to my finances and how to break the cycle of letting those temporary feelings control my financial decisions. I’m now in a place where I am comfortably paying off my debt without fear and have a savings account for the first time!”

“1:1 is so much more than money coaching; it’s also life coaching. Andrea is so passionate about what she does, and you know from the moment you start she wants you to succeed. She breaks down those really obscure and tough concepts so easily and in a fun way that anybody could understand. She is so knowledgeable and takes great care to make sure you get everything out of the program you want and need and even a bit more than you didn’t expect.”

“Before coaching, I was basically a sitting duck, stagnant. While I was doing well with saving money, it wasn't growing, nor was it working for me. After coaching, I've opened accounts that'll grow my savings, found ways to increase my income, and am actively working on building credit so that I can secure better deals and benefits in future investments. Approaching finances is not as scary as I thought. It does require learning new things, but it's doable for everyone and can be tailored and molded into a system that works for you! There's no set way to handle money, and if something isn't your "vibe," that's ok! I’ve learned you can choose how you want to tend to your finances.”

“I learned how to invest, and I'm not as intimidated by the stock market as I used to be. I was okay managing my money before, but now I'm no longer in credit card debt and investing for my future. It's a great investment for your future and reshapes how you think about money. I am so glad I made this leap of faith!”

“During 1:1 money coaching, I paid off debt, opened a high-yield savings account, learned how to evaluate my spending, and created a budget. I learned how to create a plan to hit my money goals, and I also feel great about where I am for investing and retirement. I realized I was not as behind with investing or retirement as I initially thought. I also learned about improving my relationship with money, and just like any relationship --- it takes work, and you need to give yourself grace! I am more comfortable spending on things I thought were indulgent but really just needed at the time and good for my soul.”

“Before money coaching, I had just started a job offering a consistent salary with health benefits. I made almost $2000 more each month than my previous career. But despite the spike in abundance, I still found myself transferring money out of my savings & only having enough to get to my next paycheck. I was getting by but wasn't "building" anything, and I did not have the tools, knowledge, or guidance to know where to start.
Money coaching gave me budgeting tools, new systems, accountability, and a new perspective on credit! I started at zero - I had never budgeted a dime or had a consistently growing savings account. With 1:1 coaching, I saved $8,022.00, set up my 401k contributions, saved in cash for two vacations, and learned how credit works, but my most significant money win couldn't be measured - lol - it's my mental health. And I'm not exaggerating. The overwhelming peace that I have around my finances can't be matched. I know how much is coming in and where it's going before each month begins. I love "budgeting." It feels like the ultimate self-care. I was also pleasantly surprised to find just how emotionally intelligent Andrea was. Her capacity to hold space and truly listen allowed me to really come into myself in a very short amount of time.
If a small part of you is saying, "I need this," then you probably need it more than you think. And it's okay to be nervous or a little hesitant. Aren't we all when we are about to make a life-changing decision? Change is hard, but staying where you are is harder.”

“Before starting my money coaching with Andrea, I thought I was "financially stable." I was aware of how much money I was making but unaware of how much I was spending. I was paying my bills and spending but not saving any money. I would create a budget and write all my bills at the beginning of the year, but I quickly failed because I did not hold myself accountable. My relationship with money was spending it while I had it. I never thought about how financial goals today could positively impact my future. But I am not the same person I was six months ago when I started. Now, I feel motivated and look forward to looking at my money and meeting my monthly money goals. The lessons that I have learned are valuable, purposeful, and life-changing. I know, understand, and have a plan for my money. Andrea was always genuine and supportive along the way. I never felt like she judged me in any way regarding my financial situation. She was honest and asked questions that helped me reflect on what decisions I wanted to make regarding my finances. Andrea believed more in me than I believed in myself at times, and that felt good to have.

“I would avoid talking or thinking about money. I wouldn't even like to think about paying my monthly bills and would always wait until the last day possible to make the payments because I would hate seeing the balance on my account decrease. With 1:1, I gained clarity and confidence in knowing I have enough money to cover all our expenses, buy things that bring us joy, and make our lives easier all while saving & investing my money. I have created a purpose for my money. I also learned there is so much more to money than just creating a budget and sticking to it. There are so many emotions attached to money and so many money thoughts that our brains make us believe that just aren't real. Money coaching will help you create clarity and give you the tools to change that mental chip in your brain about money. During 1:1 I was able to save $1,000 saved for a new laptop, $800 for my personal savings account, $10,831 for our home down payment, change my 401k contributions to 6% and got a $5,000 raise. If you’re thinking about 1:1, do it! Invest in yourself and go for it!

“Before 1:1 money coaching, I felt without direction. I didn’t understand enough, I went off what others said but I wasn’t very informed. I have always been good at saving but did not know what to do with my money. I was looking for peace of mind with my money and feel that I’ve definitely gotten more of that. I’ve learned how to save and spend in a way that makes sense for my life and my future. I now have a money system that works automatically, and I just observe and relax. If you’re considering joining 1:1 give yourself a chance to be blown away. Money is a topic that not everyone is comfortable with, but being able to talk to someone to guide is worth every single penny.”

While in 1:1 money coaching, I paid off $1,800 in credit cards, saved $9,000 and started investing $400/month. I have continued to invest because Andrea helped me automate those transfers to my Roth and my other investments. I’m also still saving for my specific savings goals and then am able to spend that money as intended without feeling guilty. I have my fully funded E-fund and I have also learned that my money goals & habits will change depending on the season of my life. I also began investing in my 401K (with a 6% match) and have learned more of what my money is invested in.
