Tulip Tree Finance

I recently told you about my personal goal of sharing 100 free 30-minute intro calls as soon as I can.

Nothing energizes me like connecting with others, listening, encouraging them, and sharing how I work to strengthen financial lives.

Since I started counting, I'm up to 12 intro calls!

Intro calls are the first step for someone interested in financial coaching.

I'm also happy to talk if you're not considering coaching.

I'm focused on hitting 100 and every call counts! 🤪

Maybe you need:

-A time designated to broach the money conversation with your partner, with the benefit of a 3rd party
-To introduce a loved one to me, for support you can't fully provide them
-30 minutes to bring thoughts and questions to the surface that don't normally get enough attention
-Concrete action on what you've been saying you'll get around to
-An extra set of eyes and ears on your financial circumstances
-To rip off the Bandaid and start taking your finances more seriously--- with someone on your side rather than alone
-A networking connection to talk about how I could refer clients to you or vice versa

Moving is exhausting.
Not just physically—but mentally too.

Boxes everywhere. Decisions everywhere.
And somehow… no clear place to start.

That’s where we come in.

This client handed over the entire unpacking process—and walked into a home that was set up, organized, and ready to live in.

Not just unpacked.
Fully functional.

If you’re staring at boxes right now (or dreading an upcoming move), you don’t have to do it alone.

Unpacking & full home setup services available in Columbus, Ohio.
Let’s get you settled faster—and better.

"Hope is the spark that many of us need who feel lost, sad, and trapped in our careers.
It’s important to recognize that while this may be our current stage in life, it doesn’t have to be our entire existence.
We can make a change because we are in control."
-Andy Hill, Own Your Time, page 16

I always say that food is one of the "big three" expenses (along with housing and transportation). Good choices in this category are game-changing. My brilliant friend Julia Begala has expert insights and systems to make those good choices a reality! Read her article here:

Like electricity, money is neutral.

It reveals its power when you decide how to direct it. Used intentionally, it can power a life of joy, freedom, and fulfillment.

Used unconsciously, it slips away on things that don’t matter.

So how do you use money as energy to create a life you actually love?

Money Is Energy: Align With What Matters — Tulip Tree Finance Money is just energy. Learn how to align your money with your values so it fuels joy, freedom, and fulfillment—not stress or guilt.

I feel so honored and happy to be invited into others' financial journeys. That's why I'm trying to see how fast I can complete 100 free intro calls.

Would you or someone you know like to schedule a free 30-minute conversation?

It's sometimes a starting point for paid sessions, but it doesn't have to be!

It could also be:

-a starting point for DIY action steps

-a conversation-starter for a couple learning to have money talks

-a way to learn how I could refer my clients to you, depending on your profession

-a space to get your thoughts out of your head and hear yourself talk

-an opportunity to ask your curious questions about me

-a chance for me to practice explaining how I work

There aren’t many good habits you can delegate.

But saving money is one of them!

Instead of relying on willpower, set up automatic savings.

Think of it like watering a tree with a slow-drip watering bag system.

You don’t have to remember to do it every day.

The system works in the background, and over time, you grow something strong and healthy.

When we take care of a tree, the goal is to see a strong, healthy tree.

Not to create as many tasks for ourselves as possible. It’s the same with money.

Why stand there with a watering can when you can use a nifty tree watering bag?

Have you heard someone say, “I hate math”?

What does that mean? Perhaps, “I feel bad when I do math, so math is bad.”

I’ve heard a similar sentiment about money.

✅ “I hate dealing with money.”
✅ “I’m not a numbers person.”
✅ “Thankfully, my partner handles our finances. It’s not my thing.”

Maybe you’re one of those people who celebrates spreadsheets and numbers. Or maybe you have sworn them off for life.

Either way, don’t equate money with numbers.

Even if you don’t go out of your way to practice arithmetic, you live in a universe full of numbers doing their math thing, and you reap the benefits every day.

And even if you’re not a math person, no need to assume you’re not a money person.

Money affects your everyday life like the air you breathe. A key to growing strong with money is realizing money isn’t just math.
