Emily, a Health and Wellness Director, and Maddie, a Medical Sales Rep and part-time Athletic Trainer, are newlyweds and just recently bought their first home – their dog George is settling in nicely! Emily and Maddie are hoping Project Money builds their financial knowledge and confidence as they begin their journey of starting a family.
Project Money might be officially over for Emily and Maddie, but they plan to act like participants as they navigate this next chapter of life. The accountability from each other and their financial coach, Ashley, made sure they stayed on track and had even more savings to show at each financial check-in.
  • How has this experience impacted Emily and Maddie?
“We grew closer as a couple and realized we have so much support around us. We can now talk about money very casually, without stress or anxiety. Money no longer keeps us up at night, and we even feel ready to start a family of our own because of our newfound peace of mind.”
  • Advice they’d give to a new Project Money team:
“Start by paying off smaller debt first. Celebrate your wins and then start tackling your next goal.”
  • Their “aha” moment:
“Make your money work for you! Use high-yield savings accounts, certificates and even start investing.”
  • Where do Emily and Maddie see themselves in five years?
“With one or two kids and possibly moving into a bigger home to better fit our family. We’ll be growing real wealth and providing for our family without worry.”
