If you're a high-earner who should feel financially secure—but instead you’re stressed, second-guessing every money move, or wondering “where the hell is it all going?”—this list is for you. You won’t get boring budgeting tips or shamey money lectures here. I don’t believe in restrictive spreadsheets or guilt-based advice. What you will get? Real talk, helpful tips, and the kind of financial guidance that actually works for busy, badass women who want more peace, more clarity, and more control over their money—without sacrificing their lifestyle (yes, you can keep your vacations and Starbucks). I’ll send you weekly(ish) emails with practical tools, client stories, spicy truth bombs, and the occasional rant about why traditional budgeting is the worst. Basically, if you want to feel good about your money—and finally have a system that feels good too—get on the list. You’ll laugh, you’ll learn, and you might just start making bank moves you didn’t think were possible
I didn't leave teaching for the summers.

Yesterday my daughter turned 15. And I was a mess. How does that even happen? (I swear she was just starting kindergarten.) Here’s something not a lot of people know. One of the reasons I left teaching (yes, even with the summers off), was the lack of flexibility during the year. If she had an appointment? If something important happened during the day? If she needed me? I didn’t want to be “available in July.” Yesterday, I blocked my calendar. I got her birthday Starbucks. That didn’t happen by accident. It happened because we got our money sh*t together. Now my money buys me time. And now if you’ll excuse me, I need to go weep into a Kleenex because my “baby” is 15 and somehow three inches taller than me. 💙 |

Reader, I learned something this week that made me immediately log into my CRA account. Apparently Canadians are currently sitting on more than $2 BILLION in uncashed federal cheques. Yes… billion. With a B. But make it TWO!!!! Nearly 4 million cheques from the federal government have never been cashed (worth about $2.16 billion). And some of the biggest buckets of that money are: • $391 million in tax refunds• $387 million in GST returns for small-business owners• $141 million in Canada...
Reader, I'm angry today. This week our mortgage renewal paperwork showed up for our investment property. This is after two months of trying to get ahold of our advisor at Scotiabank… who apparently retired, but whose email and phone system are still very much alive and accepting messages. None of which have been returned. 🤦♀️ And honestly, the way this whole thing has been handled proves a point I've been yelling about for 20 years: The bank is NOT your friend. If you want all the details of...
Every so often I get a message that starts with: “Ms. Cole…” (Yes. Maiden name era. Chalkboard days. Overhead projector energy.) Teacher energy incoming!!! And then they tell me this: “That money unit you taught us? I still use it.”“That was the most impactful thing I learned in all of high school.”“I didn’t realize how valuable that was until university.” Fifteen years later. And do you know what I used as our textbook? The Wealthy Barber. (Register here for my FREE WB book club....and no,...
