Learn more about Chelsea

“You’re a driven, entrepreneurial woman who has this dream of having your own business, building wealth outside your 9 to 5, or wanting to build something bigger than yourself, but continue to get stuck in financial overwhelm. I see you.

My mission is to provide driven, entrepreneurial women with high-quality financial planning advice in an innovative, upbeat, and flexible way that’s tailored to their lifestyle goals and helps them ditch money overwhelm and achieve financial security to create a legacy of financially empowered female business owners who empower their communities.

Different from the 60-year-old male advisor in the suit, my work combines human behavior, money mindset, and financial strategy to create a custom roadmap based on each client’s unique vision.”
