Money. It’s a word that carries so much weight, doesn’t it? For many of us, it’s not just about numbers in a bank account. It’s tangled up with emotions, stress, and even our sense of worth. Whether you’re dealing with debt, striving for wealth, or somewhere in between, money can feel like a heavy burden. It doesn’t matter if you’re a freelancer juggling gigs, a full-time employee, or navigating unemployment – money complexities touch us all. Managing finances, whether solo or with partners, roommates, or collectives, often feels like navigating a minefield.
But what if it didn’t have to be that way?
Imagine a life where money is less of a stressor and more of a tool to achieve your goals. It’s possible! You absolutely can create a financial life that works for you and aligns with what truly matters to you. Every day, people are transforming their relationship with money, and you can too.

At Money Central, you’ll find resources designed to help you stabilize your finances and reduce money-related stress.
Why Financial Stability is Your Superpower
Imagine what you could achieve if money wasn’t constantly weighing you down. Reducing financial stress frees up energy for what truly matters to you – your passions, your community, your purpose. Especially for women, LGBTQ+ individuals, people of color, and artists, financial stability isn’t just a comfort; it’s a foundation for empowerment. Taking control of your finances now is crucial because financial burdens compound over time, benefiting banks, not you or your community.

Money: It’s Not Neutral, But You Can Master It
It’s true, money is a complex and emotionally charged topic. It’s loaded with assumptions and shaped by our unique experiences. Conversations about personal finances can evoke feelings of fear, shame, pride, and excitement. Money intersects with class, family, culture, needs, and desires. In today’s world, discussions about money often touch upon larger issues like capitalism and inequality.
However, avoiding these conversations and neglecting our financial well-being doesn’t address these systemic issues. Silence and avoidance only perpetuate stress and prevent us from accessing helpful information. Information that can empower us to live more sustainable and less stressful lives. Information that puts you in control.
My own journey started with financial hardship. Growing up with a single mother below the poverty line, navigating community college and student loans, I understand the stress of financial insecurity firsthand. I realized that to break free from money-related fear and build the life I wanted, I had to take proactive steps. I tackled my debt, launched a business, improved my credit, and committed to saving. Now, even with a non-profit salary, I’m working towards homeownership.
I learned to be fearless about money by understanding how it works. And by sharing my story, I discovered that so many others are seeking the same knowledge. People want to know:
- How to improve their credit score?
- How to save for significant goals like a down payment?
- How to make financial choices that align with their values?
- How to manage multiple income streams?
If you feel discouraged, overwhelmed, confused, or disempowered by your financial situation, know that you’re not alone and that change is possible. If you’re ready to make things happen and build a solid financial foundation to achieve your biggest goals, I’m here to support you. I’m especially passionate about working with progressive individuals and groups, non-traditional partnerships, women, and LGBTQ+ communities.
