Hi there, I’m Manya.

I help people in divorce make smart financial decisions—and turn complex financial questions into clear, do-able steps that protect what matters and build what’s next.

Here’s the truth

Divorce is emotional—but it’s also deeply financial.

I’ve made mistakes. I’ve overextended. I underestimated. Years ago, I went through a season of separation that shook me—personally and financially—while running a business and facing the demands of solo parenting, I remember trying to make good financial decisions in a fog of emotion, and wishing someone would give me a step by step plan and could just tell me what to do with the house. That experience shaped how I serve today.

My mission is to empower you to understand the numbers, see the path ahead, and make decisions from an informed guide by your side, not fear.

Whether you’re just starting to consider divorce or deep in the process, I meet you where you are with strategy, focus, and compassion.

  • I don’t replace your attorney or financial planner — I enhance their work. Think of me as your strategic connector. While your attorney manages the legal process and your planner looks at long-term wealth, I focus specifically on how divorce impacts real estate, mortgage readiness, asset division, and cash flow. I make sure your financial plan is executable, coordinated, and aligned with your settlement strategy.

  • Divorce is often labeled as the second most stressful event in life—and for good reason, it is costly. Even the strongest individuals can feel scared and uncertain about the road ahead. But what if you had an experienced professional to guide you, helping you avoid costly mistakes and find clarity in the chaos? Divorce planning tailored to meet your needs and budget.

    If you're wondering if you can afford to be single, parent solo or enter into the workforce post divorce then you're asking the right questions and the good news there is a path forward for all of the unknowns.

  • Yes. Many clients come to me while they’re still deciding. Our Divorce Readiness Planning service helps you explore options, clarify your finances, and create a strategy whether you decide to stay, wait, or proceed with divorce.

  • Just because the divorce is finalized doesn’t mean the hard decisions are over. Many of my clients continue to need support as they navigate co-parenting, re-entering the workforce, or managing finances on their own.

    I work with individuals before, during, and after divorce because healing and rebuilding take time. My coaching—rooted in both professional training and lived experience—is designed to support you through the real, ongoing transitions of life. Divorce may be one chapter, but discovering who you are beyond your past and embracing reinvention is another.

  • No. While I specialize in supporting women through financial dependence, gray divorce, and post-abuse recovery, I work with individuals of all genders who need strategic, empowering divorce planning and financial guidance.
