Transform Your Relationship with Money.

Bridging the gap between your financial behavior and your future goals. Specialist coaching for individuals, couples, and organizations ready to overcome financial trauma.

Comprehensive Financial Behavior Support

Align your mindset with your money. Whether you are navigating personal financial trauma, seeking harmony in your relationship, or improving organizational wellness, our services bridge the gap between psychological behavior and financial goals. As an Accredited Financial Counselor (AFC®) and Financial Behavior Specialist (FBS®), Debbie Slaughter provides the expert guidance needed to transform your financial identity into your greatest asset.

Individual Financial Behavior Coaching

Your financial identity is the bridge between your goals
and your reality.

Financial trauma—whether from bankruptcy, compulsive spending, or systemic hurdles—often creates a gap that traditional budgeting can’t fix.  By aligning your beliefs and values with your daily habits, you can overcome past trauma and achieve lasting financial wellness.

Couples Financial Coaching

Align your shared values, not just your bank accounts.

Financial trauma often shows up in relationships as friction, secrecy, or conflicting money mindsets. Debbie helps partners navigate these deep-seated beliefs—including issues related to compulsive spending or past financial setbacks—to build a unified path forward. Transform your financial communication from a source of stress into a foundation for your shared future.

Financial Wellness Audits

Move beyond the balance sheet to understand
the "why" behind your wealth.

A Financial Wellness Audit is a comprehensive deep dive that bridges the gap between your current habits and your long-term aspirations. By examining your financial intelligence and identity, Debbie helps you identify the missing link between your goals and the behaviors required to reach them. Gain a clear, motivational roadmap designed to redirect your behavior so your money finally starts working for you.

Organizational & Non-Profit Workshops

Empower your community with financial intelligence.

Debbie provides specialized workshops designed for non-profits and organizations to address the "missing link" between financial goals and behavior. These sessions focus on money mindset, neurodiversity, and overcoming systemic financial trauma to promote positive financial behavior within groups. Transform how your team or community views money by aligning organizational values with practical, psychological financial tools.

Testimonials

Hi Debbie!! I just wanted to reach out to you and say thank you!!! You are a god send! I got so many offers since you did my resume!!! I just accepted my Final Job offer for an HR assistant position!!! I got 5 other offers as well ☺️ My entire office is amazed at how you helped and they have all asked me for your contact!! I wanted to apologize, I was so excited to get them in the door I forgot to ask if it was okay for me to give them your contact info.
BTW…. Thank you so much for your help on the USAJOBS resume. If it wasn’t for what you with my resume and the applications we submitted together, I would have never gotten so many call backs for GS jobs. Especially on this last one. I honestly have never gotten as far as to an in-person interview on any GS job I’ve applied since I retired. You made the difference!
Oh wow. You’re fast. …. Friend! I love it 🥰!!! Seriously. You have saved the day and transformed my resume in less than 15 minutes. This is your calling. Thank you so much!”

“This looks amazing! And so much better than what I originally had!
