About me
Heyo, I’m Ally!
I share my finances online to inspire you to learn about money.
I couldn’t think of anything special about myself when I was writing this page, but I realised that’s kind of the point.
I’m a 27 year old woman living in Sydney, working full time in marketing and making an average salary. I’ve grown up in a family that has money, but with that, came some pretty crazy financial abuse. This encouraged me to learn as much as I could about managing my money, growing my own wealth and taking control of my finances, so I didn’t have to rely on anyone else to take care of me.
I started deep diving on the internet, researching, listening to podcasts, reading books, taking courses, speaking to professionals, asking lots of questions, and trying different ways of managing my money to find out what worked and what didn’t.
I’ve made plenty of mistakes and have learned so much, and will continue to learn about money forever. I truly believe that when you take control of your money, you take control of your life.
So, whether you don’t have much money at all, or have more money than you know what to do with, it’s important to understand the things you don’t get taught in school, like:
- learning how to budget and spend in line with your values,
- saving for your big dreams and to protect future you, and
- investing to grow your wealth.
That’s why I let you take a peek into my finances, share the things I do to manage my money and what I’ve learned along the way to help you start managing your money too.
Some of the things I love to do:
- Yap about money, whether it’s on TikTok, at speaking events, or in person to anyone who’ll listen.
- Work… I’m a bit of a workaholic and have a few side hustles going on, as well as my full-time job (it’s definitely not a flex and I’m working on it - hah, get it?).
- Travel. Take me anywhere and I’ll be smiling the whole time!
- Swimming in the ocean (and being outside in general).
- Spending time with the people I love the most in this entire world; my husband and my cat.
I'll teach you how to
- Budget your money according to your values,
- Create financial goals you'll actually stick to,
- Save for those big and small life milestones,
- Invest to grow your wealth and take care of future you,
- Manage your money so you can live your dream life.
