About The Money Journey

How it started 

After working many years in Marketing, I founded The Money Journey in 2022. As a solo māmā (mum), I had just discovered the empowering feeling of rethinking my personal finance strategy. I went from slowly repaying my 30-year mortgage to aggressively funneling 60% of my revenue towards it every month. Suddenly, money was starting to bring me freedom, flexibility and safety. Many life options were opening up. I completed a Level 5 NZ Certificate in Financial Services and started my dream business. My goal is to improve the financial toiora (well-being) of New Zealanders and help them get more life out of their money through budgeting, killing debt and a holistic, intentional approach to personal finance.
