From Grown-ish to Growing, Know what to do when, with a Financial Game Plan

I guide youth through financial decisions while helping them build strong financial fundamentals so they can move through adulthood with clarity, confidence, a plan, and no unessary debt.

Meet Cycelia

I help youth move from grown-ish to growing by teaching them how money really works and how to use it to make confident, values-based choices. Not having a financial foundation takes choices away. Using the 7 keys, I equip youth with the real skills to fund their future, manage money, and take the driver’s seat in life. It’s not just financial literacy, it’s freedom.

What sets me apart is that I didn’t learn financial freedom from a textbook. I learned it by living it. People come to me because I make things clear. I break it down, I give them a plan. I meet them where they are with no judgment and real solutions. I combine years of experience as an educator and counselor with real-life money wins, so I know how to teach financial literacy in a way that sticks.  I don’t just give information. I give people the tools, timing, and confidence to use it.
