Hi, I'm Jenn Steliga. Like many people, I did not grow up learning about money. When it was time to manage my own money on a daily basis, I wasn't sure where to start. I figured it would all work itself out in the long run if I just made enough money.
I knew I should be doing something - but what was that something? Maybe investing would do the trick! Everyone else was doing it - why shouldn't I? I reached out to a financial advisor who set up an investment account for me and I invested every month.
But, I didn't exactly know why I was investing and I certainly didn't know what to do with the rest of my money, so I spent it all... and then some; I accumulated debt, and started to feel overwhelmed. I didn't talk about money because, in comparison to my peer group, I felt ashamed about my savings balance and the behaviors that got me there.
Something just didn't feel right. I couldn't put my finger on it then, but what I know now is that I was seeking not only a financial planner but a coach. I wanted someone who would challenge me to design my ideal future and learn how to manage my money wisely so that I could care for not only my present self, but my future self and loved ones.
Through trial and error I became more confident and competent in handling my money. When I finally realized I wanted to help women with their personal finances as a career, I took the necessary educational classes and exams to learn even more about how to guide someone in the financial planning process. Today, I can say with great confidence that I am experiencing the freedom of an intentional life, and can help you do the same.
