Welcome to Finlittle! 🌈

Every kid deserves to be financially independent and understand how money can work for them. We grown-ups need better tools to educate and actively shift the cultural narrative about money to be about confidence and hope rather than fear, shame, scarcity, guilt, envy, desire, resentment, and control anxiety.

As we grow Finlittle, we are committed to directing a meaningful portion of profits toward charitable and social impact initiatives that support children and parents. Our goal is to build a financially strong company that can create lasting impact.

Talking about money with kids early and often is an act of love and one of our jobs as grownups, to help kids become financially independent. If you care about kids reaching their full potential, generational wealth, closing the gender & racial wealth gap, and/or anti-bias goals, you NEED to talk about money with kids. We’re here to bring you accessible and effective tools in this journey.

This is not about “money education for the sake of personal gain”, it’s for the sake of carrying out values and goals as a person, as a family unit, as a community, and as a society.

Honestly, I think it’s never too early and it’s never too late. Start anywhere, it doesn’t need to be perfectly scripted.

Research shows that our earliest money mindsets and memories become formed between the ages of about 3 to 9. Anytime your little one(s) express questions about money, turn towards and engage them to build connection, confidence and curiosity. And certainly whenever kids earn, find, or receive money as a gift, use that as an opportunity as well.

We are truly entering a golden age of quality personal finance tools for the masses, not just the wealthy 1%. To up your game:

1) Check if your workplace benefits include access to a financial coach, counselor, even psychologist to redefine your money roadmap, technical skills and mindset.

2) Ask your bank or brokerage offers personal finance coaches, or virtual financial assistants, as part of their services, these are often free of charge to customers.

3) For tailored 1:1 coaching, search for local or virtual CFP, AFC, financial therapist etc based on your specific needs. Make sure they are credentialed and have solid reviews!

4) Subscribe to quality podcasts like “So Money” and “Journey to Launch” for ongoing learning.
