The Do Money Better Formula explained:

Step 1: Understand Your Money Story:

This is the diagnostic and emotional foundation for all future work. We explore your financial history to identify patterns you may be repeating unconsciously and clarify what's driving your decisions. Without this level of clarity, planning will either miss the target or collapse under unspoken tension.

Step 2: Design Your Unique Plan:

Based on your complete story, values, and true goals, we create strategies that work for your actual life. These aren't generic templates - they're built specifically for your situation and what you're really trying to achieve.

Step 3: Implement and Adjust:

Ongoing support with regular reviews and coordination with other professionals. We adapt as your life changes and ensure your plan stays aligned with your evolving needs and circumstances.
