I’m Diana — Financial coach, Simple Money Systems specialist, and a mom to a son with Down syndrome. I don’t teach from a quiet or perfect life. I teach from inside the mess: the responsibilities, the advocacy, the emotional load, the unpredictable days. Every strategy here is shaped and tested by real experience for real moms of special needs kiddos.
I built Simple Money Systems for moms raising children with special needs who carry emotional, mental, and financial responsibility every day. It’s designed to simplify money decisions, reduce pressure, and provide a clear structure - so finances stop adding to the load and start supporting the life you’re holding together.

Extra discipline won’t fix it. Another complicated budget isn’t the answer. What matters is a system that actually understands your life — and maybe a cup of coffee you didn’t reheat three times.

SHOW NOTES:
Simple budgeting didn’t add more to my plate, it gave me peace in the middle of a full, demanding life. In this episode, I share how creating a gentle money rhythm through simple daily check-ins, weekly planning, and a flexible 2-line budget helped me move from financial noise to clarity, consistency, and confidence. From my Money Funnel that removed guilt and second-guessing, to my Morning Power Hour and nightly Honor Hour, you’ll hear how small, intentional habits transformed not just our finances, but our family life, marriage, and sense of purpose. If you’re a busy mom especially one navigating special needs parenting, this episode is an encouraging reminder that money can support your life instead of controlling it.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
„I absolutely recommend Diana! I’m currently going through her course, and honestly, I’m a bit shocked at how my husband and I had been handling our finances. We grew up without credit cards—so we didn’t know better, and we ended up deep in debt. This course has been a game-changer. It’s opened my eyes and completely shifted the way I think about money. It’s not just about getting out of debt—it’s about learning how to stay out for good. I’m so grateful there’s finally practical guidance like this available, and I truly hope our kids won’t repeat the same financial mistakes we made.”
- Masha B.

Ever wonder why it’s so easy to overspend—even when you know better? In this episode, we unpack the real reason behind impulsive spending and how one simple shift can change everything: knowing your “why.” When you connect your financial decisions to what matters most—your family, your peace, your dreams—spending becomes intentional, not reactive.

If you’re ready to stop the guilt, ditch the impulse buys, and finally take control of your money in a way that feels aligned with your values—this is for you. Let’s make money feel simple, peaceful, and powerful—together.

SHOW NOTES:
In this podcast episode, Diana talks about a big mistake people make with their money. She tells us a story about her grandmother who kept seeds in a jar. Her grandmother explained that if you plant all the seeds now, you won’t have any for later. This teaches us that we need to save some money for the future instead of spending it all on things that make us feel good right now, like takeout or a new phone.
Diana explains that when we spend too much today, we might wake up later and realize we don’t have enough money for our big dreams or to pay off debts. She calls this ”spending the seed grain” because, just like seeds, if we use it all up now, we won’t have anything left for tomorrow.
Diana suggests that for one week, we can try to think before we spend. We should ask ourselves if what we want to buy helps us today or if it’s better for our future. By making smart choices, we can help our money grow and be happier later on!
