Hello, I’m Karen and I’m so glad you’re here.
I’m a finance coach for Christian couples, and if you’re avoiding money conversations in your marriage, I see you. I was you. For eighteen years, my husband and I never really talked about money. Our finances were a mess, and the silence between us only made it worse. But when we finally broke through, when we got on the same financial page and started dreaming together as a team, everything shifted. Our money. Our marriage. Our entire lives.
I know what it’s like to live in the ‘before,’ and I know the freedom of the ‘after.’ That’s why I’m passionate about helping you make that change too, so you don’t have to wait as long as we did. If you’re a Christian couple who talks about money but you don’t have a plan, if you’re just drifting along without direction, I see you. I’ve been you.

Our Story: From Financial Silence to Unity
My husband is a pastor at a large Christian school here in Kenya, where we currently live with our daughter (though we’re originally from the UK). Before we got married we attended marriage prep classes, and once we were married, we had marriage mentors and a financial advisor, so you’d think we’d have figured out the money thing sooner. But we didn’t. Not because we didn’t want to but because we didn’t know how.
We talked about bills. We talked about expenses. But we never really talked about our financial future together. We were two people in the same household but not truly on the same financial page.
The Moment Everything Changed
We finally broke through, when we finally learned to talk about money without defensiveness, to dream together instead of apart, to make decisions as one, everything changed. And I don’t just mean our bank account. I mean our marriage. The intimacy. The trust. The sense of being united in purpose.
I remember the exact moment my husband said, “OK, let’s do this”—meaning, let’s work together to get out of debt. My heart was bubbling over with hope. I clearly remember thinking: I can’t be the only one who has experienced this struggle. And in that moment, my calling was born.
Why I Coach Christian Couples
That transformation is why I do what I do. Since 2023, it’s been my life’s mission to help other couples experience the same financial unity that my husband and I have experienced. I love bringing people hope—the same hope that filled my heart that day.
And why Christian couples specifically? Because I love to pray with people. Starting a coaching session in prayer is the best way to start! There’s something powerful about inviting God into your financial journey together, right from the beginning.
When you combine faith, intentionality, and practical financial tools, transformation happens. I’ve seen it in my own marriage, and I’ve seen it in the couples I coach.
Real Results: What’s Possible for Christian Couples
One of my favorite testimonials comes from Ben and Mathandi, who joined my coaching programme:
“Despite being married for over 13 years, the subject of money has not been discussed between us until we joined your coaching programme. Thank you for helping us get on the same financial page. We are now working together to build a better financial future for our family.”
Thirteen years of marriage, and they had never truly discussed money. But in just five weeks, they went from financial silence to financial partnership. That’s the power of getting on the same page.
Who This Coaching Is For
My coaching is specifically designed for Christian couples who:
- Talk about money but don’t have a clear financial plan
- Feel like they’re just plodding along financially without direction
- Want to stop the tension and start building together
- Are ready to invite God into their financial journey
- Desire financial unity but don’t know where to start
If that sounds like you and your spouse, I’d love to help you discover what financial success looks like for your marriage.

About Me: More Than Just Money
When I’m not coaching couples, you’ll find me traveling with my family, getting lost in a good book, going for long walks, or spending time in prayer. These things fill my cup so I can pour into yours.
Living cross-culturally in Kenya has taught me so much about adaptability, faith, and community. My husband’s work as a pastor keeps us grounded in what truly matters, and coaching couples allows me to blend my passion for marriage, faith, and finances into meaningful work.
