Feel More Confident With Your Money
Personalised finance coaching to help you understand where you are, where you want to go and how to get there.
Sometimes you don't need another budgeting app, financial podcast or article telling you what you should be doing.
Sometimes you just need someone to sit down with you, look at the bigger picture and help you work out your next steps.
Whether you're trying to get on top of everyday expenses, build your savings, manage debt or prepare for a big financial milestone, our one-on-one finance coaching sessions offer a supportive space to talk things through.
No judgement. No confusing jargon. Just practical financial education, guidance and a clearer direction forward.
Does Any of This Sound Familiar?
You earn money, but you're not quite sure where it all goes.
You've tried budgeting before, but nothing seems to stick.
You want to save more but struggle to get started.
You're juggling debt, bills and everyday expenses and want to feel more organised.
You've got a big goal, like buying your first home, but don't know how to prepare.
You'd simply like someone to help you make sense of your financial situation.
You don't need to have everything figured out before booking. That's what we're here to help with.
What Can We Work On Together?
Every session is different because everyone's financial situation and goals are different.

Whether you're thinking about buying a home, changing jobs or navigating a new stage of life, build your understanding of the financial considerations involved.

Meet Your Finance Coach
Hi, I'm Teressa!
I'm the founder of Your Finance Lounge, an award-winning finance broker and financial educator with more than 20 years of experience across banking, finance and business.
Throughout my career, I've seen how many people feel overwhelmed by money, not because they aren't capable, but because they've never had someone explain things in a way that makes sense to them.
That's one of the reasons I created Your Finance Lounge.
I believe financial education should feel approachable, practical and relevant to everyday life.
My goal is to help you feel more comfortable talking about money, asking questions and understanding the steps you can take towards your goals.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to prepare anything before my session?
You don't need to have everything organised beforehand. It can help to have a general understanding of your income, expenses, debts and goals, but we'll guide the conversation based on where you're starting.
Is this suitable if I'm struggling financially?
Yes. These sessions can help you understand your current money situation and explore practical budgeting and money-management approaches. If you're experiencing serious financial hardship, a free financial counsellor may be a more suitable first step.
Is this the same as financial advice?
No. These sessions focus on financial education, money management and helping you understand your options. They don't include personalised financial product recommendations, investment advice or credit advice. If you need regulated financial advice, we can explain where to seek appropriately licensed support.
Can I book even if I don't have a specific financial goal?
Absolutely. Sometimes the first goal is simply understanding where your money is going and feeling more organised.
What happens after I book?
You'll receive a booking confirmation with your session details and any information you need to prepare. After your session, we'll send your written summary and arrange your follow-up check-in.
Ready to Feel More Confident With Your Money?
You don't need a perfect budget, a huge savings balance or a five-year plan to get started.
Sometimes the most valuable first step is simply having a conversation.
Your Finance Lounge provides general financial education and coaching. Sessions do not include personalised financial product advice, investment recommendations or credit assistance. Where appropriate, we encourage you to seek advice from a suitably qualified professional.
