What's your business, and who are your customers?

Money Mama is the safe place to come for money challenges. We offer mindset support, money debt strategies and help and inspire women to find their own financial path and feel worthy of abundance.

Tell us about yourself

Money Mama was born from a life event that shifted me to my core. I was financially, emotionally, and physically depleted. I knew how to rebuild, yet I got inspired to help other women feel worthy of what they desire. And so I created Money Mama to give them a space to come as they are and really step into their power of creation. Because, after all, women are creators.

What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?

Seeing someone succeed and really embrace their full self along with seeing their money mindset expand.

What's one of the hardest things that come with being a business owner?

Ah! Well, Thru COVID was to run my business while having 2.5 year old at home who needed my attention. Being a solo parent isn’t easy yet; they are my motivation.

What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?

  1. Focus on one thing you are good at and do that.
  2. Identify who your clients are and speak to them in your marketing pieces.
  3. You don’t need to do it alone. Trade expertise, ask for help, or get a partner on board.

Is there anything else you'd like to share?

The universe always has our back. Tough times don’t last, but there is always a gift in these times. We just need to stay hopeful 💛
