Navigate Life On Your Own Terms
Superwoman Syndrome is a real thing. By definition, it’s the obligation to manifest strength, suppress emotions, help others, resist being vulnerable or dependent and a determination to succeed despite limited resources. And while being strong, helping others and succeeding in spite of the things life throws at us sounds great, it is killing us, especially Black women.
Wearing the S on our chests can strain our relationships, cause stress-related health issues, and ultimately will destroy us. Killing Superwoman® exists to support you in finding your path to freedom. Whether it’s in building your business or taking control of your finances (or both), our goal is to provide services that support you on your freedom journey.
Our Offerings
Operations Consulting
-
Our Operations Consulting Services take away the stress of the back office side of running a business. Without proper systems and automation, this means you are spending a disproportionate amount of time away from servicing your customers, resulting in loss of time, loss of revenue, and eventually, burnout.
We co-create your operations processes from start to finish, identify tools that will maximize automation while remaining within your budget and build a plan for implementation. The goal? To ensure you spend less time on paperwork and follow-ups and more time doing the thing you love: servicing your clients.
-
We work primarily with service based solopreneurs, and will periodically work with small (max 5 employees) nonprofit organizations.
-
Consultation: Your first step is a 15 minute free consultation call. Prior to the call, you’ll answer a basic questionnaire to help us understand your needs and what you’re looking for, so we can be better prepared for the conversation. The purpose of the consultation is two-fold: 1) to understand your needs further and 2) to see if we’re a good fit.
Post Consultation: We’ll follow up with an email with next steps. If we aren’t a good fit, we’ll do our best to provide you with recommendations and/or resources that can better assist you. If we are a good fit, we’ll send you a contract for your operations consulting engagement
Consulting Engagement: Your consulting engagement takes place in multiple phases over the course of one year. Phase 1: Co-Creation. This is where we map your processes and co-create the systems that make sense for you at that time.
Phase 2: Implementation. During implementation, you are working on the implementation of the plan and we are available as support for questions. At the end of phase 2, we do a check-in on how things are going and make any necessary tweaks to the process and/or systems. Phase 3: Finalization. During Phase 3, we do another half or full day session to review systems and processes, make necessary changes based on what you’ve learned through using the system, and finalize your co-created plan. If you’ve outgrown the systems or need to make major changes, they will take place during this phase. We keep lines of communication open throughout all phases, so if you run into issues, we are available to assist.
-
Operations Consulting services are offered at a flat rate:
$2,500: For brand new businesses (no existing systems, tools or processes)
$5,000: For existing businesses with tools and systems in place already
Money Coaching
-
Coaching is a one hour session to get your questions answered about managing your personal finances. We cannot answer questions about investing and investments, but if your questions are about how to create a budget, get a handle on spending, when to use credit cards (or not), how to setup savings, that’s where we come in.
-
We work best with individuals who are ready to take control of their personal finances. Our ideal client has some basic knowledge of money, but is seeking to make smarter financial decisions, starting with the basics (creating a spending plan and planning for the future). You are committed to doing the work, and choosing to make an investment in coaching for accountability and success.

Coaching Session: Your coaching session is 1 hour long. We find that this tends to be an ideal amount of time to get your questions answered. Prior to the sessions, we may send you an additional form to complete with some more detailed questions, depending on whether we need additional context. The more details you provide us in advance, the better prepared we’ll be for your coaching session. If your questions are centered around YNAB, we’ll ask you to invite us to join your YNAB through YNAB Together so we can take a look before your session.
Post Coaching Session: We will send you an email with notes detailing our conversation and any action items you have.
-
Money Coaching services are provided at a flat rate of $150/hour. We find that most clients only need 1-2 sessions. We do offer 3, 6 and 9 session packages at a discounted rate. The details of those packages are shared at the end of your free consultation call for those who are interested in a package.
YNAB Budget Coaching
-
As a YNAB Certified Coach, I have developed tools to help you setup YNAB, align it to your priorities, and create the habits and routines to fit your lifestyle for long-term success.
Disclaimer: I am a YNAB Certified Budgeting Coach, which means that I have been trained to coach people on using YNAB software and the YNAB budgeting method. I have met select requirements of You Need a Budget LLC in order to receive this certification, which means that I have the ability to competently coach YNAB to others. I am not an employee of YNAB, and all non-YNAB related opinions and recommendations are my own. My views do not reflect the views of YNAB and its employees or its affiliates.
-
You can be very successful with YNAB by leveraging existing resources (I’ve provided some of my favorites in the Resources section). However, if you’re the type of person who prefers to have someone step them through the setup process live, or need additional check-ins and accountability, coaching may be the right fit for you.
My ideal client is an individual who is ready to take control of their personal finances. My work is primarily with women, and I do not work with couples (but you can find some awesome coaches who do here). -
Coaching Options:
Self-Paced: You can purchase our detailed guide for stepping yourself through YNAB setup. This is the same process I use for in-person clients, and more detailed than what you may find on YouTube or in the Facebook Groups. Includes 4 weeks of unlimited email communication M-F during normal business hours, so you’re never left to go-it alone.
Guided Setup: This is a 5 week, 60 minutes per week live setup program where we will work together to get you properly setup on YNAB and on your way. Guided Setup runs in a cohort model. Includes access to a Slack channel for 8 weeks and one 1 hour individual check in to ensure you are successful with YNAB.
Check-In: If you have been utilizing YNAB and need someone to look things over for you or help you over a few hurdles, we recommend booking a “Money Coaching” session, as a single session will likely get you what you need.
