Welcome to the
Foundation to Financial Freedom Course!
A Program to Help You Take Control of Your Finances,
Strengthen Your Relationship with Money, and Grow Your Wealth
Get More Joy and Peace of Mind from Your Dollars Without Nickle-and-Diming Yourself in a Restrictive Budget
When you use a proven system based on your core values…
… and you develop an empowering money mindset, saving money and achieving financial independence become doable.
In 9 weeks, you can transform your finances with this evidence-based, step-by-step system that is fully customized to your needs, values, and goals.
If you're here, I know this much about you:
You want your finances to be better and easier.
When you entered adulthood, you were told to get an education, get a good job, follow a budget and you’d be in great financial shape.
What happened to the “great financial shape” part?
Your finances aren’t as easy, or as secure, as you thought they would be by now.
Some days you think, “At my age, I should be father ahead. Why am I not?”
It’s not for a lack of trying.
Maybe you did the whole budgeting thing to get a handle on your spending.
You downloaded Mint, tracked expenses, created categories and imposed spending limits.
Three months in, the whole “micro-managing” and “obsessing-over-nickels” approach caused you so much stress and shame when you couldn’t stick to your spending targets that you said, “!@*?#🤬” while deleting the app.
Or maybe you’re the kind of super organized person who started budgeting when you were fifteen after getting your first job.
You know where every dime goes and you can list your budget off the top of your head.
Despite all that controlling and being careful, you’re still nowhere near your financial goals.
You think, “I don’t get it. I’m doing the work. When do I get to enjoy the fruits of my sacrifices?”
The frustrating reality is this:
Tracking your money is NOT the same as managing your money.
And until you make the switch, you won't create the life you want.
The problem isn't you
- You went to school for years. In that time, you learned:
- Calculus, grammar, the historical events behind D-Day, the parts of a cell, and the skills to do your work.
- But you were never really taught how to make, manage and grow your money.
- Your parents didn't teach you about money either - for a million understandable reasons that typically revolve around fear, discomfort, and shame.
- For most people, money is still a taboo subject.
- Your parents would rather talk to you about sex than money - and we all know how that talk turned out.
You need a better approach for your finances
One that serves your unique situation, values and dreams.
One that’s doable by someone juggling 14 balls (that would be you).
And one that works right now – without making money management feel like a punishment!
You don’t want to wait another ten years – or more – to be able to finally let your shoulders relax and enjoy life,
without having to think about money ALL the time.
This is your chance to do just that without the restrictive, one-size-fits-all approach of traditional budgeting.
Introducing
A comprehensive, step-by-step course to help you take charge of your finances, strengthen your relationship with money, build your confidence, grow your savings account, and create great options for your future.
You’ll learn how to eliminate debt, build a financial safety net, and make more money so you can experience the peace of mind and the joy that come from knowing your future is secure.
Before we get into all the course details,
let's make sure you're a good fit.

I went from living in ignorance and fear about my financial situation to taking charge and feeling totally empowered and in control.
The benefits of the course also extend far beyond finances.
Her "no shame, no blame, no judgment" philosophy helped put me at ease to face my finances.
I finally uncovered and released some key subconscious beliefs that had been holding me back for years. I now feel more confident about my earning power and how to manage my money. And discovering my core values is now changing the way I spend. I highly recommend her course!

Students’ success stories
This could be you
I mapped out the next 10 years on what I call my "Freedom Timeline". It feels so empowering to have sight on the dark, dusty corners of my finances and to have hope that the future can look different. This motivates me as I pursue a new career helping others unlock what's keeping them 'stuck'. Excited to go after this beautiful life by design, not life by default!
Before the course, I don't think I realized what it takes to establish good patterns, regularly monitor money, set meaningful goals, and engage in regular reflection. I didn't expect it to be personal or emotional.
Doris's emails, modules and coaching have so much value and they make a meaningful impact by making visible things that have been invisible and deeply ingrained, unconsciously shaping our finances for years.
She is the exact kind of cheerleader that I need in my life to stay on track towards a new way of being. She also has the ability to challenge me to push myself in a motivating way. I'm thanking the universe for her again.
I would recommend it to anyone because it has left me feeling empowered. It changed the way I look at spending
and how I make decisions about my money and my time.
Conscious spending and value-based decision-making are powerful tools!
Working on my values was incredibly useful and empowering. Now I spend conscientiously, purposefully, and without fear.

It’s powerful!

Meet Your Guide
Hi, I’m Doris!
I’m a financial literacy educator who has helped thousands of women take control of their money and create great options for themselves.
In my early thirties, I was widowed and left with $400,000 of debt, which I paid off in two years. I’ve since built a multi-seven-figure net worth and a thriving business – using my skills as a trained researcher and an evidence-based approach.
Here’s what I know to be true:
It doesn’t matter who you are, what you know, or what your current situation is. Financial freedom is possible with the right system, ongoing support, and a safe, no shame, no blame, no judgment environment in which to learn.
This is that safe space for you.
In this course, I created the system and the plan that I wish I’d had years ago when I stared down a mountain of debt.
At the time, it felt like I had few options for my future.
This course would have changed my life.
I created it so that you can achieve financial security, peace of mind, and freedom in a tiny fraction of the time it took me to figure it out and make it happen.
Life is short. Don’t waste another minute settling for less than you want. You can do this.
Hop into the course and let’s get you to financial freedom as soon as possible!
Why women only?
Because the reality is that the financial conversation changes when men are present.
I know this from my experience running women-only courses and co-ed courses.
I also know this from my experience running a Women’s Money Group.
Women who were otherwise vocal and expressive in a women-only setting clammed up when men were in the room. It didn’t even take a male stranger to make them feel less comfortable speaking about money. The men in question were their partners, sons, nephews, and friends!
That’s why I design my courses with women in mind and I offer my coaching packages for women only.
In my coaching community, you’ll get a safe space to talk about money
and my signature No Shame, No Blame, No Judgment approach.
You'll be backed by my 30-Day Satisfaction Guaranteed or Your Money Back Guarantee
If you’re thinking, “This sounds great, but I’m still not 100% sure it’s for me” you can try the course risk-free with my 30-Day Money-Back Guarantee.
The best part is that it’s a No Hoops to Jump Through guarantee:
- I won’t ask for copies of your worksheet.
- I won’t ask for justification of any kind.
Either you like it and you keep going, or you don’t and you get a full refund.
It’s that simple.
I know what it’s like to be interested in taking a course, but you wonder, “Will this meet my expectations? What if I don’t like it?”
I know that my students get great results when they do the lessons and implement what they’ve learned, but I get that you don’t know that yet.
I want you to feel confident about taking this step and to be fully satisfied with your purchase.
So if you’re on the fence, or if other trainings have left you disappointed…
Then I want to give you the opportunity to dive into the material and experience the feeling of empowerment and excitement that comes taking control of your money – risk-free.
That’s why I’m offering a 30-Day Money Back Guarantee:
Check out the video lessons and the tools that I provide. If you don’t find the course useful by the end of 30 days, send me an email and I will happily refund your full payment within 30 Days of the course start date. No hard feelings!
I’m SO confident that if you implement what you learn inside Foundation to Financial Freedom (FTF), you’ll transform your money and your life.
You have nothing to lose and a bright, secure future to gain.
You deserve to have a life you love without financial stress and overwhelm.
You also deserve a money management system that serves you, and not the other way around.
It doesn’t have to be hard and painful.
I say this as someone whose life was upended in her early thirties by loss, crippling debt, and no easy path to income.
It took me years of endless research, burning the candle at both ends, deprivation, experimentation, and false starts to finally crack the money code.
Today, I’m financially free and I know how to help you get here in a tiny fraction of the time it took me.
There is a world of abundance just waiting for you. I can show you the path to that world.
Hop into the course and let’s get you there as quickly as possible.
I can’t wait to meet you and cheer you on inside of the Foundation to Financial Freedom course!
All my best,
Doris
