Understand your money. Have real options.
Wealth education for women, grounded in real life and personal finance systems that last.
There’s no shortage of money advice online. Very little of it acknowledges real life.
Real life is messy, and the economy isn’t always predictable, so I focus on clear explanations and money systems that still work when things aren’t perfect.
Hi! I’m Tess.
I’m an Accredited Financial Counselor®, investing educator, and end-of-life planning enthusiast.
I’m on a mission to simplify money and investing so you can retire comfortably and spend more time on things that actually matter to you.
These days I’m a seasoned investor, with decades of experience investing in the stock market, real estate, syndications, crypto, and businesses.
But it wasn’t always smooth sailing. In my 20’s I made big investing mistakes that cost me thousands that could have easily been avoided with basic education anyone can understand.
Now I’m on a mission to help you avoid my big mistakes and take control of your financial future.
