My mission in life is to revolutionize women's relationship with money and power. I grew up relying on my father (the “R” of H&R Block), then my husband, to manage my money, but a devastating financial crisis became a personal wake-up call.
My journey to financial independence was about far more than money. It was a rite of passage into my power! This journey has been such a challenging, freeing, liberating and empowering roller coaster ride for me. I now know my mission in life is to share what I’ve learned with the world of women who struggle, in any way, with taking charge of their finances and their lives! And I know many of you are on this path. What I write about and teach is not really about money, but about power!
Financial empowerment for women, engaging speaker, writing, training and coaching to revolutionize women's relationship with money.

I am on a mission to inspire women to become financially empowered. My eye-opening presentations convey an encouraging message: when you take control of your money, you take control of your life. And it's so much simpler than most people realize.
I immediately engage my audience with my own dramatic story, inspiring anecdotes and grounded advice. I teach women how to map out their financial futures, and share my secrets for personal empowerment.
