Hi! I'm Shanalei, a family budgeting coach specializing helping moms break free from debt that is stifling happiness and to reconnect with their kids and rediscover purpose.
I know what it feels like…
- To have debt strangle your joy.
- To realize the negative toll that worldly possessions have on your life.
- To not have enough resources to create the type of experiences you want to have with your kids before they leave home.
- To feel like you aren't going to have enough money to achieve your long-term goals.
- To feel financially defeated.
But by God’s grace, our finances rebounded and I regained focus. I used my analytical skillsets to create simple, effective budgeting strategies for myself and identified the missing pieces that kept causing us to have setbacks. I formed new habits and developed a prosperous mindset that I want to share with you!
