Let's break it down
hey there
I'm Sam
I’m a personal finance expert, corporate escapee, and money coach. I’ve always cared about making my own money but stumbled around when it came to saving and growing it. I’ve spent over 20 years trying to “learn how to money” and know firsthand how important having a solid foundational knowledge of personal finance can change your life.
For me, it gave me the security and confidence to quit my highly coveted tech job and pursue my dreams of helping women build wealth. I know too many accomplished, badass women who admit that managing their money is daunting or they know they could be doing more, or worst yet, they hand over financial control to someone else.
The thing is, we’re all capable and have it within us to live a financially abundant life and be in the driver’s seat as we chase our dreams. All you need is the roadmap and guidance to show you how to create wealth – from slaying your money fears to learning how to invest to creating a financial system custom-tailored to YOU.
Money Glow Up Academy is an accumulation of my knowledge so you can fast-track your journey to wealth. When you have more money, you have the power to do amazing things and create a positive impact on everything around you. I can’t wait to share this experience with you!

frequently asked questions
What is the difference between the self-study course and 1:1 coaching package?
+
-
If you're serious about transforming your finances and are looking for real results, then the 1:1 coaching package is for you. I will work alongside you to make sure you feel comfortable with your numbers, tackle any limiting beliefs, design a value-driven spending plan, and understand all the investment concepts so you can start growing your money. We will focus on the topics that matter most to you and you will walk away with a clear strategy and roadmap on how to achieve your goals.
If you think you already have a majority of your finances under control and just need some guidance to make sure you're on the right track and want to learn how to invest, then the self-study online course is the perfect solution for you. It takes all the guesswork out of having to do all the research yourself and will give you the foundational knowledge to take your finances to the next level.
How long does it take to complete the program?
+
-
The 1:1 Coaching Program is designed to be completed within 2-3 months.
The general program structure is: Learning > Assignment > 1:1 Coaching. Prior to each coaching session, you will be expected to complete the learning module and corresponding assignments. This may take a few hours to complete and may require you to journal, pull up bank accounts and assess your actual numbers, or do investment research. This is to ensure we are optimizing our time together during our 1:1 coaching sessions and can cover any topics that need further discussion.
I've found that meeting every other week typically works best, but can also meet weekly if schedules permit.
If you are going through the self-directed course, there are 5 modules that each include approximately 1-hour of video instruction + 2-3 hours of assignments. The timeframe and pace at which you complete the course are totally up to you as you'll have lifetime access to the video lessons in Money Glow Up Academy.
Can I pay in installments?
+
-
Payment plans are available for the 1:1 coaching package only.
- 3 monthly payments of $500
What tools do I need throughout the program?
+
-
Here's a breakdown of all the tools and apps we'll be using throughout the course of Money Glow Up Academy 1:1 Coaching Program:
- Client Dashboard/Portal- Notion
- Learning Portal - Notion
- Shared Folder - Google Drive
- Worksheets - Google Sheets
- Video Meetings - Zoom
- Collaboration - Notion
- Communication - Notion, Email, Text, IG DMs
Notion is the primary tool that will be used throughout this program. Notion is free to sign-up and you do not need to pay for a premium version to complete this course. I've decided to use Notion because it offers the best experience to watch video lessons and complete assignments all in one central place, while allowing for basic collaboration. Besides, who likes downloading workbooks only to never look at them again!
How long do I have access to the resources?
+
-
You'll have lifetime access to the Money Glow Up Academy lessons so you can move through it at your pace or refer back to it whenever you need!
Your personal learning dashboard in Notion that includes all the exercises and resources are yours to keep!
Why should I work with a money coach instead of hiring a financial planner/advisor?
+
-
Whether you work with a money coach, financial advisor, or financial planner completely depends on your needs.
I like to think of money coaches as the personal trainers of the finance space. We're here to empower YOU to become the person you were destined to be and our primary focus is to witness life-changing results and transformation. Personal finance is personal and not one size fits all, so it requires the type of partnership you would expect from your trainer or therapist! I deeply care about my client's needs and it would be an honor to get to work with you at such an intimate level.
Hiring a financial advisor/planner can be extremely expensive and they may not be able to offer the same level of partnership and commitment. But if you do go this route, please look for one that is a fiduciary, meaning that they're required to have your best interest in mind. The last thing you want is someone recommending investments that they get commissions off of!
Either way, my 1:1 coaching package may not be available for long (or will drastically increase in price) so jump on the opportunity while it's at such a low price!
What is your refund policy?
+
-
There will be a vetting process to ensure we're a good fit to work together in a 1:1 coaching program. If at any point, you are unsatisfied with the program and have put in the work, reach out to me and we can try to work on a solution.
Due to the digital nature of the online course, all sales are final.
