Tell me if this sounds like you:
You want to live within your means, save for a rainy day, and still enjoy some “just for fun” expenditures (without the guilt).
You need a way of managing your money that is aligned for you, one that you will actually use today AND tomorrow.
You have too much debt, and no idea how to get out from under it.
You’re over trying to will yourself to save more and spend less.
You’re tired of feeling guilt and shame every time you think about money.
You wish there was a way to just figure it out and get your financial -ish together.
Good news!
I help my clients with those same problems every single day.
And, if you’re like any of them, you’ve probably made some of the same mistakes.
Mistakes like…
Belief 1: BUDGETS ARE LIKE DIETS, AND I CAN’T STICK TO EITHER.
Restrictive budgets, like diets, don’t work for anyone.
We’re human!
Life is changing and unpredictable.
Financial Wellness is spending and savings plan that we use for our benefit – NOT rigid rules we have to submit to or fail.
If it’s not working for you, it’s not the right Financial Wellness Strategy.
Belief 2: I HAVE SO MUCH DEBT, IT WILL TAKE MANY YEARS FOR ME TO GET OUT OF IT.
Debt can happen overnight, but getting out of it won’t…
With a clear strategy, paying down debt can happen faster than you think.
And when paying down debt is part of a clear spending plan, it’s almost effortless.
Inside Financially Free, we use the Debt Eliminator to not only craft a debt reduction plan, but also give you a clear timeline for becoming debt-free.
Belief 3: I MAKE ENOUGH MONEY, AND LIVE WITHIN MY MEANS, SO I DON’T NEED A FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT STRATEGY.
Most people are not great with money.
This isn’t our fault. We simply are not taught how to understand personal finance and our financial psychology.
When we “make enough money,” what that often means is that we make enough money to get away with financial behavior that still does not serve our highest goals.
However, we may find later on that the cost for not utilizing a clear and intentional strategy is higher than we thought.
Belief 4: I’M TOO YOUNG TO WORRY ABOUT TOMORROW.
Waiting to start saving will cost us more than we can imagine.
The earlier you start saving, the more time your money has to grow through the power of compound interest. Starting retirement planning early can lead to an earlier, more comfortable, and secure retirement.
Also, because you are young, you the opportunity to never be stuck with consumer debt.
If you create an emergency fund now, you can us that to cover unexpected expenses rather than credit cards. Wouldn’t it be better to borrow money from yourself rather than a credit card company?
Inside Financially Freeā¢, we use the Savings Engine to build up savings now to support your future.
Belief 5: I DON’T MAKE ENOUGH MONEY TO BOTHER WITH A FINANCIAL WELLNESS PLAN…
Financial Wellness is for EVERYONE.
If we don’t know how to manage $100, we don’t know how to manage $100,000.
Financial Wellness is how we related to the money we earn and the way we spend it.
It is how we are in relationship with our money and using it to serve our best interests and highest values.
In Financially Freeā¢ā, the focus is on finding where we ARE in control of our money and finding ways to expand that control.
Anyone can maximize and expand their personal economic power.
Belief 6: BECAUSE I’M IN FINANCIAL TROUBLE, I CAN’T AFFORD A COURSE ON FINANCIAL WELLNESS!
It can feel like a risk to part with more money when you are already on the struggle-bus.
However, with Financially Freeā¢, we go on a journey to healing that will not only help you get out of financial trouble (and stay out), but most people will gain many times over the amount that they spend on the course.
We can spend the money on more financial trouble, or we can spend the money to get out of financial trouble.
Let’s get on the path to help you become financially stable, secure, and independent, together!
Imagine…
If there was a way you could sleep at night knowing your financial life is in order and you are free to make choices that are best for you and your family.
You could finally have freedom from debt AND savings for unexpected expenses…
You could leave a job or relationship that is not serving you…
You could login to your bank account feeling confident and secure…
You could know that every financial decision is aligned with your true values and taking your in the direction of your goals…
All of that is possible inside Financially Freeā¢ā…
Join today! The doors are closing soon.

Hi, I’m Karen…
I’m a Psychotherapist and Certified Financial Social Worker who works with women+ to help them become financially stable, secure, and independent, so they can have more freedom to live safe, free, and abundant lives.
I’m a proud GenXer (whatever) and a mom, step-mom, and grandmother with two purebred-good-boy pups, and two cats. I’ve also picked up drumsticks for the first time over the past year (I’ve never played an instrument!).
I’m also a practicing psychotherapist with over 20 years in the mental health field, and nearly a decade as a business owner and personal finance advocate. Whatever I’m doing, I find the greatest joy in helping women+ get empowered and get free.
Why I created this…
I wanted to have a way to reach more women+ in an accessible, affordable way.
I hate to see women+ struggling financially and feeling trapped when we don’t have to.
I believe that when women+ are financially free, everyone does better.

I’ve tried several budgets and I just can’t stick with them. How is this different?
Financially Freeā¢ is not just another budget. Financially Freeā¢ā takes you though a process of understanding your relationship with money (and budgets!) and helps you create a spending plan that works for you and with you. It’s not a “pass/fail” kind of thing.
Financially Freeā¢ knows you are human. We do nothing perfectly, especially when it comes to money, so this isn’t about process, flexibility, adaptability, and doing what makes sense for YOU
I’m busy and I don’t have a ton of time.
Is this going to overwhelm me?
Part of the Financially Freeā¢ philosophy is that you go through the course in the way that best works for you.
For some people, going through it quickly and getting it done fast is the way to go. For others, doing a little bit at a time and keeping it manageable, is the best way to go.
The point is toĀ just keep going and do the next thing. You will get there.
What kind of tech knowledge do I need to do this successfully?
You will need access to a computer or laptop, some very basic knowledge of Google Sheets (it’s just like Excel), and the ability to use the You Need A Budget app. Most people will have adequate tech knowledge to complete the course easily.
Will I need to buy anything else in order to use the Financially Freeā¢ system?
Finacially Free teaches you how to create an Integrated Spending Plan that utlizes the app You Need A Budget (YNAB) If you already use this app, great! Inside the course, you will learn some new strategies for making this powerful budgeting app even more powerful!
As of this writing, YNAB offers a 34-day free trial and costs $99/year after that. The cost for YNAB is not included in the price of the course, but it is well worth it!
I don’t really make much money.
Is this relevant to my situation?
Yes! Everyone, no matter their financial circumstances, deserves financial health and can acheive financial wellness. Financial freedom is not about being wealthy (although it can be), but instead, we focus on creating stability, security, and independence with what we have whether it is $100 or $100,000.
In Financially Freeā¢, we focus on maximizing what you’ve got so that you discover that small changes, made over time, create big changes in financial freedom.
I make a lot of money and I don’t have much debt.Ā
Is this relevant to my situation?
Yes! I’ve known many people who make great money, but feel trapped, fearful, and ashamed about money and financial decisions. Most people have money issues and struggle with healthy financial management. Having enough money often means having enough money to “get away with” money problems rather than not have money problems.
Financially Free can help you take your abundance from enough to truly empowered security and a full future.
How do I get started on the course?
Once you have registered for the couse, you gain lifetime access and can get started right away! You do not need to finish within a specific timeframe. What matters is that you complete it in a timeframe that works best for you.
You will also receive any and all future updates to the Financially Freeā¢ā course at no additional charge.
As I hope you will revisit the course over and over on your lifetime Financial Wellness journey, this is a great benefit!
Once you complete your registration, you’ll receive instructions via email to get started!
How long will it take for me to finish the course?
What will I have when I’m done with the course?
Once you begin the course, I recommend you spend at least two weeks (although several months is perfectly fine, too) going through the course.
It can certainly be completed faster. However, the more time you spend doing the deeper work on understanding your Money Story and the many other aspects of your financial life, the more impactful the work will be for you.
It is good to let things marinate a little, you know?
When you are finished, you will have clarity about your relationship with money, and overview of your Personal Economy, and a solid system for managing your personal finances in place.
What if I need help as I’m going through the course?
If you have questions during the course, you are welcome to email me. I answer questions one a week for course participants.
What is your refund policy?
If for any reason you are unsatisfied, reach out and we will be happy to provide a full refund within 7 days of purchase. However, I am confident that you will find the benefits of Financially Freeā¢ are greater than the investment!
If you have read this far…
You have two options:
Continue to spend more time and money trying to figure it out on your own…
Or, finally save time and (a lot) of money with a holistic strategy for financial freedom so you can stop stressing and start living Financially Freeā¢ā!
