About Me
Since 2015, I have been helping people like you to understand your emotions and behaviours around how you earn, spend and save money.
My goal is to increase your financial literacy, build your wealth and fix your relationship with money along the way.
Why choose to work with me?
Don’t blame your bank account, money is only the tool. We all need to have some difficult conversations with ourselves. Watch my video to find out what drives me.
What is my financial background?
After sadly watching my mother lose a large inheritance through careless spending and poor money management, I made a vow to create a healthier financial destination for myself and my family. In the past I have worked in production management for both television and the stage; keeping people and productions on budget. I retrained as a Certified Money Coach (CMC ®) with The Money Coaching Institute allowing me to effectively encourage, educate and simplify people’s understanding around money.
What is a Money Coach?
As a money coach I take you from financial fog to financial freedom. The fog is caused by not really knowing how much money is coming in and how much is going out, and what’s happening to it in between. It can cause anxiety, apathy, jealousy around others and relationship problems.
A money coach gives you the knowledge, clarity and tools to deal with this. I don’t consider financial freedom to be untold wealth. For me it is being able to put your head on the pillow at night feeling happy and relaxed around your financial situation.
What will we do together?
We will take a deep dive into your money story. Like peeling the layers off an onion, we will work through the negative feelings and beliefs you have around money, until we find your sweet spot. You’ll be nervous but excited, ready to start your adventure with me. I will introduce you to the eight money types and show you how to use them to help you change your relationship with money for good. We will look at your numbers and map out your money so that you have a clear path to follow and can reach the level of success you have always dreamed of.
“Thank you, Fanny, for our call. I loved your honesty and the fact that you’re so easy to talk to. It’s not easy telling a stranger all about your business and personal finances but you made it a pleasurable experience.” Lizzie P.
My work in the industry
Alongside my coaching work, I am often asked to speak at public events or contribute to financial books. My drive for better and healthier financial education within the school and workplace, means I really enjoy these opportunities to communicate my experience and knowledge to a wider audience.
You can read more about my public speaking and the books I have contributed to by clicking on the link below where you will find details to purchase any you think may help you on your journey to financial freedom.
Interested in working with me?
It all starts with one, no obligation, phone call. You’re here and interested in the results money coaching can bring you, just make the decision by picking up the phone. I am based in Cheltenham on the edge of The Cotswolds but work with people around the world. Let’s have a chat to see if we are a good fit.

Books I've Contributed Too
I am incredibly proud to have contributed my thoughts on money mindset, and how to achieve a healthy relationship with our finances, to three books:
Financial Freedom explained by Kizzi Nkwocha, is described as the essential guide to financial freedom. It’s a phrase I like to use a lot for clients who have reached that comfortable stage in life where they’ve gained control of their finances and are worry free. This is a practical, jargon free book that’s easy to understand.
Retire Inspire by Andrew Priestley, is a must-read for anyone thinking about retirement. Together with 22 other expert contributors, Andrew looks at how to retire well with a feeling of satisfaction. It’s packed full of smart cuts and great advice.
Fit for Purpose by Andrew Priestley features my thoughts on how we relate emotionally to money. 20 other experts share their thinking and advice on health, relationships, best practice and emerging trends. It’s a great one for business leaders and is an international best ranking #1 book on Amazon.
Podcasts
I am a huge fan of podcasts as a tool for spreading the word about how to get a healthy money mindset and planning techniques, and to help more and more people understand their relationship with their finances better. You can listen to many of the podcasts I have appeared on below, and if you would like to speak to me about appearing on your podcast just let me know.
Public Speaking
Are you planning a larger scale employee or networking event? As an experienced public speaker, I can bring lively debate, basic financial education or a gentle and comfortable introduction to financial success to your team, with a charismatic and empathetic approach.
Your employees or members will each have a different money story, with some more confident than others. Some may even find managing their money stressful or difficult, but won’t have the courage to do something about it. Public speaking events with a financial focus, give everyone a chance to learn together, in an open coaching manner without stigma. Helping your employees to gain clarity and confidence with their own money, a feeling which often seeps into their wider home and working lives.
I am very pleased to be a partner and the official financial coach for borofree, an ethical salary advance solution with zero fees. Like me, borofree is looking for ways to “solve the debt of the UK market’s vulnerable and transform their relationship with money.” I will be running financial wellbeing webinars for employers and their teams, to help employees understand their money patterns and behaviours and empower them to grow and empower their attitude to money.
Borofree says, “Our goal is to support people get access to salary advance that is zero interest when they need it most, give them a sense of possibility, transform their relationship with money so they can gain financial confidence.” I couldn’t agree more! Together we are committed to better understanding the meaning and purpose of money in our lives.
Achievements
I am very proud to be able to say, I was part of the first ever Webinar broadcast on Money Dashboard in 2019, bringing the concept of money mindset and mental resilience to financial planning through the Coronavirus pandemic.
I have been interviewed as an expert in the Mail on Sunday, and am the resident money coach columnist for my local Cheltenham Post. Regularly reaching more than 10,000 readers with my financial mindset and planning tips.
