Certified Professional Accountant


Melissa is a Certified Professional Accountant who helps people take control of their personal finances, slay their debt, & increase their net worth.


She’s been known for her budget savviness and passion for numbers, and she loves teaching others the skills to become savvy with their money management.

When she’s not crunching numbers, you’ll find Melissa drinking lots of coffee with her three dogs close by.

Melissa is also a past VISIONARY Client of mine, and I often refer to her as my “dream client” because she is an ACTION TAKER and built her entire business online in the past few months, without knowing a THING about online marketing when we first began!

In this episode, we chat about personal finance management in times of crisis, and I also fielded some questions from our community that I had time to ask to Melissa in our episode.



In this episode chat about:



  • What the priority of your expenses should be right now, during the CORONAVIRUS crisis

  • A simple exercise for tracking your Essential Expenses, Your Non Essentials, and the one’s you're not sure about

  • Tips for saving money on your weekly Grocery Bill, during times of crisis (& everyday!) & why you should only buy items on sale

  • What to do if you can’t meet your rent, utilities, or car payments because of loss of income

  • Establishing a budget

  • Relief that will become available for small business owners

  • & SO MUCH MORE
