About this listen

A founder story for people who hate founder stories—and a money story for people who hate talking about money. This isn’t a TED Talk. Or a tech-bro memoir. It’s what happens when an industry outsider tries to build something big—with no funding, no roadmap, and one wild hospital detour.

In the middle of COVID lockdown, a reluctant financial advisor and accidental entrepreneur found herself chasing a bigger idea: What if money help actually felt human?

Part memoir, part emotional gut-check, this fast, raw, and unexpectedly funny audiobook traces the chaos, doubt, and quiet belief behind the idea that the financial industry needs to completely rethink how it addresses people’s money challenges—and that change should start with the emotional side of money.

If you’ve ever frozen at a budgeting app, ghosted your goals, or wondered if you’re the only one winging it—this story is for you.

In just under an hour, you’ll get: A brutally honest founder journey. Real talk about money, trauma, and self-belief. A quiet reminder that progress doesn’t need polish.

This isn’t a how-to. It’s just the truth. Still scared. Still showing up anyway.
