How to End Financial Stress for Your Family (and Your Team)
Most people live in a state of financial panic. They worry about the car breaking down. They worry about the next bill. They worry about never being able to retire. This stress does not just stay in the bank account.
It follows people to work.
It follows them into their marriages.
It keeps them up at night.
According to research, 92% of employees report being stressed about their finances. They spend nearly 14 hours a week stressing about money, with over 8 hours of that happening while they are on the clock. Seven out of ten people say this stress hurts their work productivity and their self-esteem.
Financial stress is a heavy burden, but over 10 million people have found a way out through Financial Peace University.
What is Financial Peace University?
Financial Peace University (FPU) is a nine-week course that teaches you how to handle money. It is not about complex math. It is about changing your behavior.
The program walks you through the ‘7 Baby Steps’. You learn how to save an emergency fund. You learn how to pay off debt for good. You learn how to spend with a plan so you can eventually give like no one else. It is the roadmap to a life without money stress.
For Organizations and Churches: The "Easy Button"
If you lead a church or a business, you know there are a lot of people out there that are stressed about finances. You want to help them, but you do not have the time to run a finance class.
That is where I come in. I handle all the logistics.
I handle the emails.
I handle the signups and coordination.
I handle the tech and the Zoom links.
I handle the follow-up with every family.
You get to offer your people a life-changing resource without adding any work to your staff. In a way, it’s the "easy button" for financial health for your members/employees. But this time, it’s not just easy… It’s life-changing.
Why I Lead These Classes
I get asked why I volunteer my time to lead these classes. The answer is simple: I’ve seen the damage money stress does to families, and I’ve seen the freedom that comes when you kill it.
In my daily work, I am a Ramsey-Certified Financial Coach. I spend my time working one-on-one with hard-working American families to help them pay off debt sooner, save more, and build budgets that actually work. I lead FPU online because it is the fastest way to get this life-changing information to as many people as possible.
Most FPU classes are led by well-meaning volunteers. When I first went through the program, my pastor led the class. He was a great man, but he wasn’t a money expert. He could read the lessons, but he couldn't always answer the "What now?" questions.
When you join my class, you get more than just the videos. You get a leader who lives and breathes this stuff every day. Every lesson is followed by a live Q&A session where we get into the weeds of your specific situation. I don’t just want you to have the information. I want you to have results.
Why the Investment Matters
For churches, the impact is spiritual and financial. Research from Tithe.ly shows that churches that host FPU classes actually see an increase in giving over time. When families get their money under control, they become more generous.
For organizations, it is about performance. When your employees stop spending 8 hours a week worrying about debt at their desks, they become more focused and productive. You are giving them a "raise" in their quality of life without changing your payroll.
Either way, when they think of ‘what or who’ helped them turn their finances around, they think of you.

I run virtual classes throughout the year with limited seating to make sure everyone gets their questions answered.
