TACKLE YOUR DEBT

Create a sustainable and manageable plan to pay down your credit card debt for good without the shame and guilt.


When I got my first credit card, I had no idea how they worked, yet it was so easy for me to open one up. When it comes to our debt, we’re not set up for success and we have so much working against us. 

I’m here to help change that. If you:


Then you’ve come to the right place. I get it. 


I got my first credit card when I graduated college and didn’t really understand how they worked or all the ways they could get me in trouble. Way too many interest charges and fees later, I struggled to make on time payments and ended up damaging my credit. 

That was almost ten years ago and since, I’ve learned so much through my own experience and helping hundreds of other people get a handle on and pay down their credit card debt. 

I know what worked over and over again for them and I’ve created a step by step system for replicating those results for you via this program. I’m so excited to share it with you! 

The Tackle Your Debt Course is a 10-week program that takes you through my step by step process to create a sustainable and manageable plan to pay down your debt, for good. This program advocates for living a full and joyful life while making headway on your debt.

why me?

Since I started the Fiscal Femme in 2012, I’ve helped thousands of people feel financially confident, achieve some major financial goals and destress their money. I’ve given workshops and keynotes at companies like Google, LinkedIn, and Bacardi and my work has been featured in CNBC, Forbes, Glamour, and The New York Times.

My first book, The 30-Day Money Cleanse, was named Best Business Book of the Year (so far!) and Publishers’ Weekly called it a “cheery and easy-to-follow guide” for “developing good financial habits and dealing fearlessly with personal finances.

But I think the most telling of all is what people who have worked with me and taken my programs are saying:


Working with Ashley has been one of the most eye-opening experiences. With her help I have learned I am deserving and able to create a life built on balance; and that my debt should not define me. Her courses have given me a new outlook on so much more than just my financial well-being, and I have finally found my confidence when it comes to talking about money. The feeling of being able to pay down my debt AND save money is indescribable and I cannot thank you enough for encouraging and supporting me through this journey! I saved $800 during the 30 days and am set to have all my debt paid off in four months.

Working with Ashley was one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. I had been meaning to speak to a money coach for a while, but was worried it would be a judgmental situation given my habits. Ashley never made me feel guilty, and instead helped me hone in what truly made me happy, and in turn, helped me spend money on those things and not waste it on others. I am happy to say that since the program stopped, I have stuck to the plan we created, and I have more in savings than I ever had before. I am forever grateful for Ashley and what she instilled in me.

Working with Ashley was literally the BEST investment I have made thus far in my life. She is such a joy to work with and very very gentle! I feel completely safe in working with her because let’s be honest sharing all your finances can be a bit scary! I now have the understanding of finances and how to make money truly work for me and my life and I don’t have any fear or anxiety around money anymore. I am excited to say that very shortly I will have paid down all my credit cards, have stopped being in the paycheck to paycheck scenario that plagued me for so long and I have started my first high interest savings account! All this plus a solid plan within 3 months of working with Ashley.
— ASHLEY
Today is the last day of my credit card cycle, and I’m thrilled to tell you that I reduced my average monthly spending by nearly $1,200!! Holy crap. And I mostly didn’t feel deprived. That’s one heck of a ROI, Ashley! I’m kicking myself for not doing this sooner! Anyway, thank you!

Hi, I’m Ashley.

Confession: I really struggled with managing my money for a long time, even though I worked as an investment banker and had a finance degree!

Yep. Back in the day, I was working in the financial space, crunching numbers and dealing with budgets on a daily basis. And I was making a great salary, too.

Sounds like the beginning of a millennial fairytale-come-true, right?

Wrong.

While you’d think someone with a degree in finance and multiple years in the financial trenches would know a thing (or 20) about managing money, at the end of the day–aka the end of my investment banking stint–I didn’t have anything to show for it.

I justified my overspending by telling myself I was working so hard, I deserved to splurge! What’s a margarita here or a mimosa there?

Unfortunately, those margaritas and mimosas do add up. And despite all my experience, I didn’t actually know how to make smart money decisions for my own life.

The bright side? I knew my relationship with money needed a MAJOR change if it was ever going to work.

Flash forward to today: I’m the founder and CEO of the Fiscal Femme, as well as an an author, money coach, and feminist who is on a mission to end inequality through financial well-being. I’ve read more books on money than I care to count and have helped thousands of people transform their financial wellness.


FAQ

Why should I spend money to save money? 

This is my favorite question and believe me, I get the irony. First, when we pay for something, we’re invested. We show up fully and we get results. I saw this when I raised prices on my first course. The participants’ results skyrocketed. They were saving hundreds more and that made the value of the course increase exponentially - for them. 

I’m also a big believer in investing in experts to save us time, money and added stress. By setting up the systems and strategies provided in this course, you will make up the money thousands of times over via decreases in spending and increases in investments and income. Not to mention the more subjective benefits like happiness, peace of mind and reduced shame and guilt. 

I’ve got a full life. What’s the time commitment? 

To get the best results, I recommend a time commitment of an hour and a half per week. You can break up that hour and a half however you’d like. 

Can I retake the course? 

Yes, you have lifetime unlimited access to the program. 

Where do I take the course? 

Everything is available in the online course portal. You’ll get a unique login to access it as soon as you purchase the course. 

Can I take the course on my own schedule? 

Yes! You get to create your own schedule because it’s all online. You can access the course anytime and anywhere, and you’ll do it at your own pace. 

Do you offer refunds? 

Yes, I’m so confident in this program that if you take the classes and do the exercises (and send me the completed work) within the first two months and are not happy with your results, I’ll give you a 100% refund.
