Sound familiar?

You earn a solid income and pay your bills, but somehow there’s never anything left. You’ve tried budgets and apps. You know you should be saving more, and you worry about retirement and what happens if something big goes wrong.

You don’t need more information. You need a clear path to follow, someone to keep you accountable, and to finally feel like you know what you’re doing and that you’re on track.

When I studied financial planning, I noticed something missing: almost no one was helping people with the everyday stuff, like spending, saving, debt, and making a plan that actually fits your life.

Most people know what they’re supposed to do with money. What’s hard is making it happen.

I became an Accredited Financial Counselor® to close that gap, helping people build the knowledge, habits, and systems to put good advice into practice.

Annie Hanson Financial Counselor

Hi, I’m Annie!

Imagine what it would be like to:

Know exactly where you stand.

See what you have, where your money goes, and what you need to do next.


Have a system you’ll actually follow.

A simple setup built around your real life, with room for surprises and the things you’re planning for.


Make decisions with confidence.

Stop second-guessing every purchase and start choosing where your money goes, from knowledge instead of worry.


Feel like you’re on track.

Build habits that last and make real progress toward the future you want, with someone keeping you accountable along the way.

“My relationship with money went from feeling out of my control to feeling empowered and excited about getting to decide how to save and spend my money.”
— Kristen

How it works:

1. Book a free consultation

We’ll talk about where you are, what you want, and whether working together is a good fit.

2. Get clear and make a plan

I’ll analyze your finances and show you where your money is going. Then we’ll build a plan and a system that fit your life.

3. Put it into practice, with support

Over the next year, I’ll help you stick with it, adjust as life changes, and stay accountable while you make progress.

You don’t need to have anything figured out before we talk. That’s what we’ll do together.

Over the next year, you could go from:

Wondering where your money went

Winging it and hoping nothing big goes wrong

Making decisions out of worry

Feeling like you should have this figured out by now

Thinking about money all the time

To:

Choosing where it goes

Having a cushion for surprises

Making decisions with confidence

Knowing what you’re doing and why

Thinking about it less, because you have a plan
