Tell us a little about your business/organization: How did it begin? What are your services/ products, etc.?
In 2007, my husband and I made the decision to become debt-free. Over the course of our 11-year journey, I connected with many others on the same path and noticed three key things:

1) Budgeting and math are only part of the process.

2) Many of us carry deep emotions around money, such as shame and fear.

3) Some people seem to experience less stress and achieve faster success than others. This is when I uncovered the concept of money mindset.

Money mindset is the stories and beliefs we have about money, shaping how we approach earning, spending, saving, and investing. A positive mindset can attract financial abundance, while a negative one often leads to struggle and playing small. The best news? You have the power to change your money mindset. 

As I experienced the powerful changes in my own confidence and finances, I became inspired to help other women experience the same success. 

Now I help women entrepreneurs shift their limiting money beliefs and tap into their unique financial strengths. Empowering them to create confidence, wealth, and greater financial independence. 

Currently I offer an 8 week 1-to-1 high impact weekly coaching program and plan to offer a small group program soon. 

Tell us about your role in the business/organization. Well, I am the organization, for now.

Tell us something that makes your business/organization unique.
I like to say that I’m bilingual. I speak English and money. I learned the language of money through my BS in accounting and by being a bookkeeper for 30+ years. I learned to navigate the emotions surrounding money through our personal journey to debt-free (and all the highs, lows, and setbacks along the way). And becoming a certified money mindset coach is my crowning achievement. I’m unaware of any other money mindset coach that has all 3 layers of experience with money. And I’m very proud of the depth of my experience in all 3 aspects. 

What do you see for the future of your business/organization?
I’m already using the mantra “I am a Million Dollar Mindset Coach”. This can seem like a big stretch when I first say it but I know that it can be achieved very quickly in multiple stages. First by creating a clientele of women who have a combined income of $1 Million. Then by guiding my clients to create a total combined increased income of $1 Million. (I can’t wait to celebrate my first client who achieves her own $1 Million dollar earnings.) And finally, by empowering enough women entrepreneurs to create a total income of $1 Million for my own business. And that all comes back to creating a powerful personal impact for each of my clients. 

How has the chamber helped your business to grow?
I am literally not the same person that joined the Chamber. I was a mouse when I joined (former bookkeeper, remember?). Now I have great friends that I have made through the chamber who encourage, support, and hold space for me as my business and I grow. And I’ve had the opportunity to support some amazing members as clients too. Each of those personal connections has been incredibly rewarding. 

What is your best advice to other businesses?
Entrepreneurial poverty (spending as much as you make, or more) is real. And it’s also completely avoidable. Making wealth-creating financial decisions is a skill. And just like any other skill, to some people it comes easily, and others find it more challenging. But it can be learned. Don’t be afraid to ask someone to “Please explain this (topic/concept) to me like I’m 5.” so that you can grasp a simple version of a concept before going deeper. Don’t be ashamed to ask a money expert to explain something to you. No one is born knowing about money, so they had to learn it at some point too. (Plus, most money people are complete money geeks who LOVE talking about money. We’re thrilled you asked!) And finally, just get started. We have a tendency to want to make big changes but with money small changes can really add up quickly. And learning something new typically leads to learning something else or improving.
