Hello!
I'm Melissa
I came out of college with approximately negative $47,000, thanks to a few free pizzas & some credit cards during student orientation, a car payment, and college loans.
Once Upon A Time...
At my first "real" job, I worried about burying myself in that mountain of debt.
Everyday...
A colleague told me the hard truth: I needed to look at my spending. I realize budgets aren't for everyone, but I had to SEE the numbers. I had to find a way to make it make sense. It was finally a way for me to spend money based on my values and not just feel overwhelmed at the month's end.
Until one day...
I paid off that $47k + saved $15k toward the wedding of my dreams, all within three years. The journey took some time, but my toxic view of money vanished.
Because of that...
After being a "Financial Coach" for a year, I quickly learned I wanted to get my accreditation and bring ethical and fiduciary standards to my practice. So, I took and passed my Financial Counseling exam in June of 2021.
Fast forward to...
I realized I LOVE working with female unconventional earners who enjoy a bit of the woo-woo. Y'all light me up. You have a passion for changing the world, and I want to be there with you to ensure you have the money to make it happen!
Until finally...
