Overcome small business overwhelm
Let’s start with a deep breath…
Are you waking up at all hours (or getting no sleep at all)?
Know you need to organise your money but have no time?
Debt looming?
Hold your breath when you pay for the groceries?
If money has you overwhelmed, I’ll help you find a place to start.
Live a life less stressful with a life and business sounding board.
Is money your small business kryptonite?
Remember learning algebra at school? It probably would have been more helpful to learn how to read a profit and loss statement, with some financial planning on the side. But feeling like you don’t understand doesn’t have to be the end of your money story, it’s the start.
Face your kryptonite. Talk to Mike about a money plan to destress, get back in the black and reconnect with your business joy.
Say no to small business money stress and anxiety.

I’ve got no time to sort out my money. I feel stuck. I’m under pressure. I’m juggling business, family and an endless list of things to do.
I need help.
You don’t have to figure out life and business alone. Get comfortable with Mike.
Hi, I’m Mike
I know what it’s like to have money worries and run a small business (or two). I was going a million miles an hour.
Working in the music business was my passion, but something didn’t feel right. I was running my own business, helping out with my wife’s business, managing the family finances, and living on 26 acres which needed attention. And we had a baby on the way. I was transitioning to become a financial adviser, bouncing from one decision to the next, too stressed to take a breath and think about what I wanted.
It all fell apart.
It came as a shock that I wasn’t Superman, that I needed a sounding board, and that it was OK to look for change. I transformed my life and my business.
Now I help small business owners find freedom with money, life and business coaching.

What is financially sound?
Financially sound is:
· Not holding your breath when your phone rings because someone wants to be paid
· Planning cashflow for the year ahead
· Not walking on eggshells waiting for new bills and demands
· Working sustainable hours in a business you love
· Money for family needs (and the splurges we all need)
· Making plans for a better now and a bright future
It’s alright to have emotions with Mike
Emotion can lead to people making interesting decisions, but Mike has a unique ability to channel your emotions in the right way. He cares about you, but he's not going to let his emotions make a decision for you or him, if that makes sense.

Having a sounding board for life and money goals means you get a chance to focus on what you’re good at and what’s important.
By getting to know you as a complete person (not just your bank balance or P&L), I bring clarity and empathy to your life and money goals and create a plan to get you there.
Work with a financial adviser and money coach who cares about your wellbeing, not just your numbers.
