Money Philosophy
​Money should serve your life—not run it. Laina believes that true financial freedom comes from clarity, intentionality, and alignment with your values. Her approach blends practical strategies with purposeful living, helping everyday people build wealth without sacrificing what matters most. Whether you're just starting out or rebuilding, Laina teaches that with the right mindset, tools, and support, anyone can create a life of peace, purpose, and financial confidence.
"Working with Laina has helped deepen my understanding of money, specifically topics like retirement savings, mortgages, and budgeting. She inspired me to integrate a simple budget system on a whiteboard. This helps me visually track my spending throughout the month.
She also walked me through how to better save for big financial goals like buying a car. Her chart tracking system (for long-term savings or reducing debt) is a fun way to see progress in manageable steps.
Laina explains money in simple terms that anyone can follow and understand. She has ideas of quick tips to try that are not overwhelming...they actually work!
The best part of working with Laina is that if you need help saving money, she won't take all the fun out of your budget. She believes you still need to have balance if you want to sustainably stick to the plan."
