Hey guys!!! I was all over the place until I set up my call with Girlfriend's, Budget. I started working with the GFB Team in September of 2020 (during the pandemic). I came with a specific goal in mind: organizing my finances and understanding how to manage my money best. I co-parent while working two jobs, and I needed to know where my money was going. After ten months of working with Elle and the team, I have an organized money management plan that allows me to see how every dollar is spent. I've paid off over $8,800 of debt during this time and increased my credit score by 118 points - allowing me to purchase my new luxury car at only a 4.2% interest rate! Plus, I'm excited about hitting my 3-month expense savings goal in about one month. The best investment of my 2020 was Girlfriend's, Budget! It cost to be a BOSS. Now I'm scared to let her go lol. read more

I am a community activist and independent consultant, a military wife, mom of 4 girls with a full-time job. Before joining the GFB Level Up Program, I had an issue with my money mindset by overspending and neglecting my finances. When I started to think about my community and helping others live a more holistic and thriving lifestyle, I knew it had to start with me and my finances first. In just FOUR months of joining the program, my credit score increased 97 points, I paid off over $5,600 in debt (including one student loan paid in full), and I added a comma to my savings account. The thing that helped me the most was the accountability to keep me paying attention to where my money was going. I now feel so empowered in how I handle my finances and the knowledge I can pass along to my girls and my community. read more

Before working with Elle and the GFB Team, I didn't have a well-mapped-out plan for my money. I struggled with keeping my finances organized, which caused me to put more debt on my credit card than I would have preferred. I've always been very social, and I have a very active circle of friends, which meant I spent a lot of money going out to eat. However, since joining the GFB Level Up Program, I've experienced a HUGE shift in my money mindset and look at my funds differently now. I'm more intentional with how I spend my money because I know I have goals I'd like to reach in the future. I've been in the GFB Level Up Program for four months and have already seen so much progress. In just these few short months, I've created a sustainable budget that fits my social lifestyle. I already PAID OFF $7,719 of debt, obtained my business LLC, and started my business FB group. I had no idea the value that I was about to receive for the investment I was making in myself, and I am eternally grateful for GFB! If you're on the fence about joining... here's my advice: DO IT!!!! read more

My biggest money struggle was loaning people money out of guilt, even when I needed the money to pay my own bills. I often found myself struggling to save money too. As soon as I would put the funds into the savings account, I was taking it right back out. Primarily because I didn't have a solid money management system, and I was never taught responsible money habits growing up. I tried a credit repair company, but I knew a quick fix wasn't going to change my habits. So I decided to invest in myself, learn how to manage my money the RIGHT WAY, and break free of the financial chains I had weighing me down. After working through Elle's Financial Freedom Program, I have adopted a money management system that is helping me pay off debt, increase my savings, live my dreams, and has SKYROCKETED my credit score 230 points! But above all else, my money mindset has completely changed and I no longer think having money is a bad thing. Elle also taught me to prioritize taking care of myself first, to say 'No' to loaning money and not feel guilty about it, and that financial freedom is part of self-love. My life has changed in so many ways because of this program, and I now feel a sense of financial peace and security like I never have before. Thank you Girlfriend's, Budget and thank you Elle! read more

I joined the Level Up program 3 months ago and it has been one of the best decisions I've ever made! I struggled with getting my finances together before and saving was an issue for me. Within 3 months of working with Elle, my credit score has increased 113 points!! I've also paid off over $10,000 in debt and my savings is the highest it's ever been! I definitely feel more confident when it comes to money management! The Mindset Mentor of the program, Coach Dee, has really helped me by teaching me different tools for elevating mentally. As I continue in the program, I'm looking forward to the progress I will make financially and mentally. So thankful that I decided to be apart of this awesome program! read more

When I saw the progress my wife was having in the Girlfriend's, Budget program, I wanted that same success for myself. I'm an accountant by trade, but when it came to managing my personal finances, my organizational skills weren't quite measuring up. As a result, I had racked up a significant amount of debt, and my savings account was suffering. Elle's money management tips gave me a new perspective on how I could make my money work for me. I worry less, have less frequent money mishaps, and my wife and I are now 100% debt free. As a gift to ourselves, we're following our dreams and traveling around Asia for 6 months! All of this would not have been possible without Elle's help. My life is forever changed! read more

I'm a mother of 5 kids, a wife, and a student with a full-time job. Growing up with parents who had opposing viewpoints on money management, I had no knowledge of financial literacy and was left confused on how to handle my finances when I reached adulthood. I usually don't take risks, but after so long of doing the same thing and getting the same results, I decided to reach out to Elle and ask for help. To be honest, I wish I would have done it sooner. Within the first 90 days of working with Elle in the Level Up Program, I paid off over $3,000 in debt, skyrocketed my credit score by 101 points, and increased my savings by 35%. Now I feel more empowered than ever when handling my finances and I'm proud that I can provide a different way of life now for my family. To any ladies considering joining the program, my advice would be to step out on faith, stay committed to the process, and you are sure to see results. I can now confidently say that I love my budget and my life! read more

As a single mom of 3 who currently works nights, I struggled with guilty spending to make up for feeling absent in my children's life. Not only that, I was trying to keep up with the due dates of my expenses in my head, which was ultimately causing me to pay bills late. I wasn't saving, I didn't know where my money was going, and my credit score was NOT where I wanted it to be. Being the daughter of immigrants, and understanding that my kids were going to model the behavior I displayed, I decided that this disastrous financial train stops with ME! But I knew I needed help. After going through the Girlfriend's, Budget! Level Up Program, I now have a money management system that works for me! All my bills are paid on time, I paid off my credit card debt, I increased my savings by 35%, and my credit score shot up 84 points... all in less than 60 days! My money mindset has changed, and my confidence is through the roof! Now my kids can experience a life of financial security and for that I am forever grateful. Thank you Elle, and thank you GFB! read more
