Why did you write Get Your Money Right: The 7 Keys to
Unlocking a Better Financial Future?
I wrote Get Your Money
Right to help everyday people turn their finances around. As a financial
coach and former banker, I’ve witnessed the challenges many people face
managing their money. Especially when you’re trying to make it on less and
everyday cost keep rising. There is a need to teach people about personal
finance in a simpler, less intimidating and more meaningful way. I wrote my
book to do just that.
You mentioned your
financial coaching and banking experience. Will you tell us more about your
experience?
Yes, I have over 14 years experience as a financial coach—helping people
achieve goals they never thought possible. I spent a few years working as a
personal banking specialist. I also have nearly 12 years of business consulting
experience at a leading consulting company, where I worked with Fortune 500
clients to improve their business performance. As a consulting senior manager,
I held a number of executive positions and managed multi-million dollar
projects/programs. But I left consulting to pursue my passion for helping
everyday people improve their finances.
What makes Get Your Money Right different than
other personal finance books?
Get Your Money Right
simplifies the most important financial principles that can make the biggest
difference in your life. It’s written in everyday language and breaks down each
principle in an easy to understand and inspiring manner.
And it’s written from the heart. As a financial coach, I
know behavior plays a large role in how we handle our money. So with that in
mind, I used many of my financial coaching techniques to inspire readers to
change. My book takes you back to the basics and focuses on the financial areas
people struggle with the most. It has a positive message and includes real life
success stories, words of wisdom and practical tips you can put into action now
for a better tomorrow.
Who should read Get Your Money Right?
I recommend Get Your
Money Right for people who are tired of living paycheck to paycheck, who need
a money makeover or who want to learn the secrets of how the rich, stay rich.

is the biggest issue people encounter after they decide to improve their

coaching/counseling, mentor) can really help. If this is you Get Your Money Right shows you how to
take control, eliminate debt, save money and more. Best of all, it’s an easy
read, uplifting and packed with practical tips and information.
