Judgement-free conversations. Mathematical clarity.
Life & Money, by JR
True financial confidence starts with a conversation about your life, not your ledger.
Return on Life > Return on Investment.
The financial industry is obsessed with growing wealth for the sake of wealth. But a perfect spreadsheet means nothing if your career burns you out, you constantly argue with your partner, or you feel trapped.
My practice uses a different metric: Return on Life. We do not optimise for the highest bank balance. We optimise for freedom. We fix the math so you can buy back your time, protect your peace, and actually start living.
The Coaching Approach
A different kind of financial conversation.
1. Your Life, Unfiltered.
Financial planning usually starts with spreadsheets. We start with you. We sit down to discuss your actual life: your fears around money, your unspoken goals, and what financial confidence truly looks like for you. No jargon, no judgement.
2. Building the Mindset.
Knowledge isn't enough; behaviour is everything. Using my Animas coaching training, we unpack the money habits holding you back. We bridge the gap between knowing what to do and actually feeling confident enough to do it.
3. The Math to Back it Up.
This is where the coaching meets reality. Backed by my ACCA qualification and 15 years in corporate finance, we translate your life goals into a mathematically sound roadmap. You get the empathy of a coach, backed by the mathematical rigour of an accountant.
More than a spreadsheet. A total financial reset.
1. Unpacking the Mindset
We uncover the hidden habits and emotions driving your spending. This is a safe, private space to talk about money—a topic that usually feels taboo.
2. Practical Execution
Say goodbye to strict budgets. We build a simple Spending Plan. We create a strategy to clear your debt. We build the habits you need to manage your daily cash flow.
3. Proactive Life Planning
We use powerful models to stress-test your future. Want a career break? A safety net? Early retirement? We build the exact roadmap to get you there.
Do you need a Coach or an Advisor?
Make an informed decision about who should sit in your corner.
Life & Money Coach (My Role)
- Empowers you to manage your own money

- Zero conflict of interest (no products sold).
Traditional Financial Advisor

- Manages investment portfolios for you
- Sells FCA-regulated financial products.
I don't sell financial products, earn commissions, or manage investments. My only interest is yours.

Real Results
What clients are saying.
"We'd been arguing about money for years. After three sessions with JR, we finally had a system we both felt was fair. The relief was immediate."
Sarah & Tom
Couple, London
"I was earning over six figures and somehow still anxious before payday. JR helped me see the behavioural pattern I was stuck in — and built a system to break it. No judgement, just clarity."
Daniel M.
Senior Manager, Financial Services
"I'd been dreaming about taking a career break for three years but was terrified of the financial 'what if'. JR stress-tested every scenario until I had mathematical permission to go. I'm writing this from Portugal."
