About Me

Welcome to the Elevated Life and Money Plan! 

I created the Elevated Life and Money Plan because I love everything personal finance. The topic of personal finance involves so much of our day-to-day life.  Over the years my knowledge has grown, and I would like to share that information with you. I know what it is like to search online for resources and feel overwhelmed. I have read and listened to everything from blogs to books to podcasts to YouTube videos.

At the end of 2018, I attempted to start a blog. I purchased the hosting and domain but never did anything else after that and the blog never got off the ground. This time I am going to follow through.

I began to take my finances more seriously in 2019 when I had $41,000 in student loans, credit cards, and car loan debt. I made specific goals throughout that year to get out of debt.  I had to get my financial house in order because I wanted to provide for my daughter. As a single mother, I am financial responsibility for her well-being. I also wanted to be able to spend my money the way I wanted. I wanted to save more money for retirement and go on paid vacations.

Since making the necessary changes to my finances, I have been able to purchase my first home, increase investments in my workplace retirement plan, and have worked on improving my net worth.

Through this blog, I plan to help others by:

  • Breaking down personal finance topics into easy-to-understand language
  • Sharing easy ways to make and save money online  
  • Recommending products and services that will make your financial life easier
  • Reviewing Personal Finance Products

My blog will mainly talk about personal finance, but I will also occasionally share ideas on how you can elevate your life through goal setting, planning, and journaling.
