I'm Carine!
I help couples like YOU work out money challenges
to MEET money milestones, SECURE a happy marriage, and BUILD a financially peaceful future.
When couples come to me, they're usually feeling...
-
Discouraged
They've bought the books, listened to the podcasts, and downloaded the apps, but nothing has worked and they feel like a failure.
-
Shame
They are a failure because adults are supposed to KNOW how to manage their finances intuitively or they should be making more money to not have this problem.
-
Guilty
They feel like they have done something wrong and let their partner or family down because they made an extravagant purchase, invested poorly, or are not making enough money.
-
Anxious
They are STUCK! Even THINKING about milestones like college or retirement fills them with dread and makes them panic. And THAT just makes them want to AVOID...so the envelopes go unopened and the taxes are filed late.
-
Angry
Just plain MAD at being STUCK! And then blame starts...they blame their spouse, they blame themselves, and they blame the situation.
-
Hopeless
Will they make it? Will the marriage make it? Is divorce the only way to fix this? Really worried they don't have what it takes and wondering if they should just give up.
-
Alone
Thinking about how to make money better, but so hard to talk about it with the person who is SUPPOSED to be closest to you. If they talk, there will be a fight for sure, so it's better to say nothing. Meanwhile, they feel alone -- it is hard to feel connected when you can't talk about your real fears and concerns about money.
As a committed partner in a marriage, you want to feel connected, heard, and taken seriously in all ways, especially finances.
That's where I come in.
What if you could have exceptional money communication skills and financial peace of mind right now? Imagine the possibilities...
-
No more Fighting
Calm and helpful money conversations even when it's hard or complicated.
-
No more Disconnection
Being able to work as a team enhances your feelings of connection.
-
No more sleepless nights
You are getting a full and peaceful night's rest because you know there is ENOUGH.
-
No more end of month money stress
That "surprise" bill which can be covered, no problem! You know the bills are covered before they are due.
-
No more Fear, Guilt, and Shame
Understanding these emotions and how they impact your money as a couple reduces avoidance, which automatically leads to missed payments and lack of planning.
-
Confidence
You have a plan so you are KNOWING your finances instead of guessing them and hoping for the best.
Let that sink in for a moment...
no fights, no sleepless nights,
no unexpected stress over money, AND a solid plan for your future...Sounds great, doesn't it?
This could be YOURS!
As a Couples Money Coach, I help you

If your answer is YES,

Meet Your Couples Money Coach
Hi, I'm Carine
I've been in your EXACT shoes!
My husband and I have had to find ways to communicate and get organized about money while raising our 4 kids -- not easy, but so worth it! The problems happened when we DID NOT communicate! I know these 3 things to be true:
-
Money and lack of money are the number one causes of marital conflicts which lead to DIVORCE.
-
If the money conversations DON'T happen, greater damage to finances and financial security WILL happen.
-
There IS a way to communicate and strategize to move past difficult emotions and make good decisions.
I can show you how!!!
