💥 How I Stopped Living Paycheck to Paycheck and Started Living on Purpose
For years, I lived like so many others—on autopilot. Wake up. Go to work. Get paid. Repeat. I was surviving, not thriving. And I was doing it while raising five kids as a single dad, buried in stress and financial uncertainty.
But everything changed when I made one decision: I chose to stop living by accident and start living on purpose.
💡 My Turning Point
In 2002, after years of burnout in the IT world and a health scare that forced me to reevaluate everything, I was introduced to the financial industry. Not to sell products, but to learn how money really works and how I could use that knowledge to help others.
I was treading water—not drowning, but not moving forward either. I wanted more than just staying afloat. I wanted momentum.
And I knew I wasn’t the only one.
🔍 What I Do Today
Through my company, Give A Heck Financial, I now help individuals and families:
- Break free from the paycheck-to-paycheck cycle
- Understand their money story and rewrite it with purpose
- Build financial strategies aligned with their values
- Eliminate “head trash” and limiting beliefs around money
- Create a life of clarity, confidence, and legacy
This isn’t just about budgeting or insurance. It’s about mindset, mission, and momentum.
🎙️ How I Share the Message
I host the Give A Heck Podcast, where I interview thought leaders, entrepreneurs, and everyday people who’ve chosen to live intentionally. I also speak on stages and coach clients one-on-one, always with the same goal:
To help people stop living in quiet desperation and start living with intention.
