Hi, I'm Karen!
I am a wife and a mother, blogger and finance coach. I am passionate about helping couples get on the same financial page.
My mission is to help couples get on the same financial page, work as a team and CRUSH their money goals TOGETHER.
It took my husband and I, 18 years to talk about money without fighting.
Now, after years of research, and trying to do better, I know that couples can talk about money - without arguing. You can budget together and work as a team to crush your money goals.
I know that you can eliminate debt, build an emergency fund AND save for the holiday of a lifetime, TOGETHER!
I'm not saying it's easy BUT with hard work, determination and commitment, it can be done!
I am now on a mission to help as many people as I can, including couples, to budget and to CRUSH their money goals!
How it all STARTED
My husband and I had been married for 18 years before we got on the same financial page.
Before that, it was me, myself and I working hard to get rid of debt and basically, do better with money.
But with a husband who just wasn't interested in even talking about money, I was getting no where fast.
Thankfully, in 2021, that all changed and we got on the same finance page.
Since then, we have worked together to pay off nearly £20,000 of debt. Being on the same page, totally changed everything for us.
We now keep each other accountable and show grace when things don’t go as planned!
In the process of becoming debt free, we have learnt so much about our values and where we want to be financially.
My goal is to help couples WIN with money.
I love to work with couples to support them achieve the following goals:
I love to work with couples to support them achieve the following goals:
- Talk about money in a calm manner.
- Budget together.
- Identify their financial goals and create their ‘why’.
- Create a plan on how to achieve their goals.
- Eliminate debt.
- Encourage them to build an emergency fund.
- Start saving.
And of course, I'm not stopping there!

Yes, you could complete all of these goals independently. However, as we have discovered ourselves, we needed community, people to be accountable to and cheerleaders to give us hope and encouragement along the way.
Many people need support so that is what I am here for! I am here for you! I hear you, I have walked your path, I know your pain and I can be your support.
