Meet Your Financial Coach
Hey, I'm Mel!
Today, I help entrepreneurs develop smart financial strategies that alleviate stress, optimize resources, and minimize tax burdens through my exclusive Thrive Financial Mastermind community, one-on-one or group coaching, and my online courses.
My services are designed to meet you wherever you are on your financial journey. I believe our Creator calls us to be good stewards, to be fruitful, and to multiply what He has given us!
I started my journey with sleepless nights of financial worry. Anxiously checking my bank account, hiding overdraft notices to avoid confrontation, and feeling completely overwhelmed by money stress.
The truth was simple but challenging: I lacked financial education. Growing up in a home without strong money management and receiving no financial literacy in school left me constantly struggling to get ahead.
Financial struggle isn't about lack of intelligence or effort—it's about missing education and systems.
When I finally reached my breaking point, I committed to transforming my relationship with money. I dedicated myself to mastering personal finance from budgeting fundamentals to advanced investment strategies. What began as a personal journey of necessity evolved into a passion for helping others achieve financial confidence.
Now as a Financial Coach and Licensed Financial Advisor, I partner with individuals and business owners to develop smart financial strategies that alleviate stress, optimize resources, and minimize tax burdens.
My approach combines technical financial expertise with emotional intelligence—because I understand that money is never just about numbers. It's about security, opportunity, freedom, and financial confidence.

Hi, I'm Mel
I get it—I was a mess when it came to money. I didn’t even know what I didn’t know. I felt overwhelmed, stressed, and stuck.
In the beginning, I was focused on building my business and helping people. I had a separate bank account, relied on my accountant, and just hoped everything was handled. But when it came to simple questions about profit, cash flow, or where my money was actually going—I couldn’t answer them.
That’s when I realized filing taxes isn’t a financial strategy. I wanted to understand the strategies I kept hearing about and finally figure out how to apply them to my own business.
Now I do—and I’m here to help guide you to fast-track your journey.
If you’re a small business owner, the confusion can double. You’re constantly questioning if you’re paying yourself right, wondering if you’re being smart with your money, and feeling the stress from inconsistent income. The second-guessing adds to the overwhelm, making it hard to feel confident about your finances—both business and personal. If you’re feeling the weight of financial stress, I’ve been there too, and I know how heavy it feels. But it doesn’t have to stay that way.
I made the choice to focus, learn, and take consistent action. It wasn’t easy, but bit by bit, I went from feeling lost to feeling confident and in control of my finances. Today, as a Financial Coach, I help entrepreneurs and individuals do the same. If you’re willing to put in the effort and take steady steps forward, you can too.
I work with people who want clear, practical guidance on managing their money—whether it’s personal finances or the money side of running a business. Together, we’ll build your confidence, sharpen your focus, and deepen your understanding so you can make better decisions and feel more secure about your financial future.
I truly believe God is leading me to help others on their financial journeys in a way that’s different from my role as a Licensed Financial Advisor. Through financial coaching, I offer personalized support grounded in faith and practical guidance.
I took learning about money to the extreme because I was determined to change my story. That’s why I started financial coaching—to help you fast track your progress and take confident steps forward.
This isn’t about quick fixes or one-size-fits-all advice. It’s about real, lasting progress made through simple, consistent actions that fit your unique life and goals.
If you’re ready to stop feeling overwhelmed and start building a money system that works for you, let’s connect. I’m here to help you take those next steps with confidence.
FAQS
What is money coaching, and how does it work?
Money coaching is a dynamic and collaborative process focused on helping individuals identify and achieve their financial goals. It can involve one-on-one sessions where I provide guidance, support, and accountability. These sessions are highly personalized, tailored to each individual's unique needs and aspirations, and they empower clients to make positive changes in their lives.
Or it can be done through my online course which is accessible anytime, anywhere and clients can move at their own pace. This course is a step-by-step guide to creating a spending plan, resetting finances, and building lasting money habits.
Or it can be a combination of both. Where I meet with clients, develop a personalized plan and they have the course to keep them on track whenever they want.Whichever method is chosen, clients will get the tools to help them gain clarity, set actionable goals, and develop strategies to overcome challenges.
Why did you think people need a Money Coach?
I believe there’s a gap in our society when it comes to teaching people how to manage money well. We’re bombarded with messages to spend, upgrade, and chase after the next best thing. But learning how to manage your money – how to save, budget, and make intentional financial decisions – is a skill that isn’t taught often enough, and it’s a skill that can transform your life.I feel called to fill that gap. There’s a reason why there are over 2,500 verses in the Bible that talk about money.
Money is important – but it’s not meant to be something that controls us. I believe we’re called to master money, not let it master us. That’s why I’m so passionate about helping you – not as a financial advisor focusing on investments or retirement plans, but as someone who understands how crucial it is to build the right foundation. I’m here to guide you through the practical, everyday steps you can take to finally take control of your money, reduce financial stress, and create the life you truly desire.
