Financial Planning 

That Honors Your Wealth, Your Life, and Your Story

Kimberly Manning, Trauma of Money Coach is here to help you get past your money blocks and step into your wealth.

You Were Never Taught How to Manage Money—And That’s Not Your Fault.

There was no "Money 101" class in school.


Nobody handed you a manual
on how to plan for your future, your retirement, or that dream cruise you want to take for your 50th birthday.

Most of us were left to figure it out on our own—and it’s easy to feel overwhelmed, stuck, or even ashamed when money feels confusing.


But here’s the truth: you’re not supposed to know all of this by yourself.

Just like you wouldn’t expect yourself to know how to fix your plumbing without training, you shouldn’t expect yourself to know how to build a full financial plan without support.

You hire a plumber when you need help with your pipes—you hire a financial planner when you need help building, growing, and protecting your wealth.

Financial planning isn’t about what you "should already know."


It’s about getting the expert guidance, strategy, and care you deserve to turn your money into a tool for the life you want.

The good news? You don't have to figure this out alone.


And when you work with someone who truly sees your goals and your values, numbers become more than just numbers—they become tangible proof that your dreams are happening in real life.

Financial planning services are available for Alberta and B.C. residents.

Find Calm, Clarity, and Confidence with Your Money

Money is emotional—and trying to manage it alone can feel heavy. But when we work together, you’ll feel supported every step of the way. Financial planning with me can give you:

The freedom to stop worrying about "what you’re missing" and start living intentionally.

Relief from the cycle of confusion, shame, and second-guessing.

A clear, grounded plan that reflects your life and dreams.

Steady guidance through major decisions, life changes, and growth seasons.

The deep satisfaction of feeling financially empowered—on your terms.

“I met Kim when I had just left a relationship and my finances were a mess. Kim went over everything with me and showed me where I could make some adjustments. With her advice and support I was able to pay off all my debt, start working on building my savings and even start making some investments. within a year I was in a much better place.”

Financial Planning Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: Do you offer insurance or investments?

A: I’m licensed to offer both insurance and investment products. I work with a variety of providers to ensure the recommendations align with your goals, values, and financial strategy.

Q: What if I already have a financial advisor?

A: That’s completely fine. Some clients come to me for a second opinion, or to explore a more personalized and values-based approach. There’s no pressure to make changes unless it aligns with your goals.

Q: What’s the difference between coaching and financial planning?

A: Money coaching focuses on your relationship with money—your mindset, habits, and emotional patterns. Financial planning is more structured and strategy-based, where we build out your full financial roadmap. They’re offered separately, but many clients benefit from both.

Q: How do I know if I need insurance planning?

A: If you’ve recently purchased a home, started a family, changed jobs, or haven’t reviewed your coverage in a few years, it’s a great time to take a fresh look. I help you understand your options and ensure you’re not overpaying, or under-protected.

Q: I don’t have a lot of money to invest yet, can I still work with you?

A: While I generally work with clients who have at least $100,000 in investable assets, I’m always open to conversations with individuals who are serious about building long-term wealth. If you’re just getting started, we can use the consultation to explore your goals and determine whether there’s a service that fits your current stage.

Q: Do I have to buy financial products from you?

A: No. Many of my clients come to me for planning and advice only. If we explore products like insurance or investments, I’ll always explain your options, be transparent about any commissions, and only move forward if it feels aligned for you.

Q: Is financial planning only available in Alberta and BC?

A: Yes; for regulatory reasons, my licensed financial planning services are available to residents of Alberta and British Columbia. However, my coaching services are available to clients worldwide.
