Spend smarter on what you love. Build wealth at the same time.
The Smart Money Moves Sidekick is the tool you open before you spend — so you make more guilt-free purchase decisions without sacrificing your money goals.
One-time payment. No subscription. No login required. Works in Google Sheets.
You want to enjoy your money. You also want to build wealth. And right now those two things feel like they can't exist at the same time.
You spend and feel guilty. You restrict and feel deprived. You get a raise and somehow still end up in the same place three months later. Every financial decision comes with a side of anxiety — Can I actually afford this? Will this set me back? Should I just wait?
So you do loose math in your head. Check your balance — which only tells you what's there, not what it's supposed to do. Then you either buy it and second-guess yourself, talk yourself out of it and feel resentful, or freeze and avoid the decision altogether.
None of that is a decision. It's just stress with a price tag attached.
Google or ChatGPT gives you generic advice that doesn't know your income, your debt, or your goals. Your friends don't know your full picture. And in every one of those unguarded, unguided moments — your money goals quietly fade in the background.
How it works
The Smart Money Moves Tool is the answer to the question you ask every time you spend.
Set it up once in five minutes.
Open it before any financial decision. It takes your income, your goals, your debt, and where you are in your money journey — and gives you one clear verdict.
Not generic advice. A specific answer built around your actual numbers.
Green — Go
Spend it and feel good about it. This decision serves you and your goals. No guilt required.
Yellow — Look Closer
Worth pausing on. The verdict tells you exactly what to weigh before you decide.
Red — Not Right Now
Here's exactly what to do instead — and how long it takes to get to a guilt-free yes.
Why this tool exists
The decision framework I had to learn to reach six figures in savings and investing — while still enjoying my life.
For a long time I thought making bad money decisions was just who I was with money.
Having a budget didn't stop me from making questionable money decisions in real time. Scrolling on TikTok. Watching a product haul from my favorite YouTuber. Sipping mimosas at brunch planning overpriced trips with the girls. Talking myself into something I couldn't quite afford. In those moments I had no real filter — just loose math in my head and a justification ready to go.
Every one of those decisions felt completely reasonable when I made it. It was only later — when the savings hadn't moved, when the debt was taking longer than it should — that I could see what those moments were actually costing me.
Making smart money decisions is like playing chess. You have to see the whole board — your income, your goals, your debt, what this decision costs future you — before you make a move. Until you can do that, every decision is just a guess with a price tag attached.
That's what I built Smart Money Moves to give you. A verdict, in your numbers, before you spend. So every yes is a guilt-free yes — and every not yet comes with a roadmap to get there.
If your money keeps disappearing before it does what it's supposed to — this is your fix.
Smart Money Moves Sidekick
How it works
Set it up once. Use it for every financial decision forever.
No app. No subscription. No login. Just a Google Sheet you open before you spend.
Set up your Money Snapshot
Enter your income, expenses, debt, savings goals, and the two inputs that personalize everything — your motivation and your current financial season.
Open it before any decision
Thinking about a purchase, a trip, a new subscription, or a big expense? Enter what you want and how you plan to pay. Takes under 60 seconds.
Get your verdict
Green, Yellow, or Red — Not generic advice. Your answer.
Why you can't just figure it out in your head
Making a truly strategic money decision in the moment is like being asked to play chess while someone's rushing you.
You'd need to know your current balances, your upcoming expenses, how much runway you have before your next goal checkpoint, and then weigh all of that against what's right in front of you — in real time, under pressure, when your brain is already doing something else entirely.
Nobody can run those numbers in their head and get it right every time.
The Smart Money Moves Tool holds all of it — your income, your expenses, your debt, your goals, your season. So when a decision shows up, you don't have to click through five apps and do mental math and hope for the best. You open one thing and get one answer.
10 tabs. One system.
Every financial decision covered.

Before you talk yourself out of it
Every reason you're hesitating — answered directly.
"Don't make enough yet"
I built $500K on a salary under $100K for 6 of 10 years I've been with my job. Income level is not the issue — having a system is.
"Have too much debt"
I had $150K in debt and a credit score in the 300s. Section 6 teaches exactly how I negotiated, snowballed, and eliminated all of it.
"Not a numbers person"
This is a decision system, not a spreadsheet course. If you can open an app and make a choice, you can do this.
"Tried budgeting before"
Budgets fail because they're backwards-looking restrictions. The Paycheck Ritual is a forward-motion system. Completely different.
"Feel like it's too late for me"
I opened my first Roth IRA at 35. Net worth crossed $500K at 37. The best time to plant a tree was 20 yrs ago the second best — right now.
"Didn't grow up with money"
Neither did I. That's precisely why I built this — for the woman who had no financial leg up and had to figure it out alone.
Honest transparency
This tool is not for everyone.
This tool was built for one specific woman. See if she sounds familiar.
This was built for you if
You earn a real paycheck. You're not broke.
You just can't figure out why nothing is building.
This tool was built for one specific woman. See if she sounds familiar.
You have a steady paycheck from a 9-to-5 — probably somewhere between $45K and $95K — and by any reasonable standard, you should be fine. But fine isn't what's happening.

Still have questions?
Everything you need to know.
Is this right for beginners? I've never done anything with my money.
Yes — Section 0 starts from the very beginning and assumes nothing. Before the math, I address why you're stuck in the first place. If you've never built a budget, you're the exact person I built this for.
What if I'm already deep in debt?
That's exactly who this was built for. Section 6 covers debt payoff strategy in full — snowball vs. avalanche, debt settlement (how I negotiated $25K in collections debt down to $6K), student loan consolidation, and when to invest vs. pay debt. If you have $150K in debt, this course starts where you are.
How long until I see real results?
Most students find money they didn't know was leaking in Section 1 — within the first few hours. Every section ends with a "First Win" — a specific, measurable result you can execute that same day. The compounding effect builds over months, but you won't wait that long to feel the difference.
What makes this different from Dave Ramsey or other Personal Finance courses?
I definitely learned from Dave Ramsey during my personal finance journey but I also had to find my own path once I graduated from the level he teaches on. There are a ton of people in the personal finance space and I believe there is value in each of our perspectives so you can learn something from everyone. Also If you dig deeper into their story you will find that many had a leg up early in life or made their money selling courses. I didnt have a leg up. I didn't make my money selling courses about money. I didn't come from money. I did have $150,000 in debt, only $25 left in my checking account, and one bad day away from living out of my car. Yet I climbed out of that hole. Built up my net worth to $500K on a regular 9-5 salary after rock bottom — with no advantages. So I get where you are coming from because I've lived it.
Do I need a high income for this to work?
No. My salary was under $100K for 6 of my 9 working years and I still built $500K in net worth. Whether you earn $50K or $150K, the same problem shows up: the paycheck comes in and disappears. The system is how you stop that.
What's the refund policy?
If you don't find value in the course, email me and I'll refund every cent.
No questions asked.
The goal is to give you results, not take your money.
you'll say
"Oh… this is how people stay on top of money."
Every financial decision you make without a system is quietly costing you the wealth you're trying to build. The Smart Money Moves Tool gives you a verdict for every single one — before you spend, not after.
