Lexi is ready to improve your financial fitness. Her passion lies in empowering mums with the tools and strategies they need to manage their family's finances effectively. Her coaching services are perfect for those who want personalised assistance but aren't prepared to pay $3,000+ for financial advice (and are not eligible for free financial counselling).

With Lexi as your coach, you'll receive customised solutions and accountability to help you increase your income, control your spending and improve your financial trajectory.
Lexi works with clients who earn good money but can't seem to get ahead. They focus heavily on 'mindful spending' and financial literacy.

Marion Mays, Money Strong
πLocation: Melbourne
I help women buy property for a secure future and change their outcomes with money, be it making it, managing it or multiplying it with guaranteed results.
She has spent 30 years in Financial Services, 20 years in property mentorship and the past decade in personal coaching. Throughout her career, she found herself continually asking the same question: why do women not have the wealth they need and deserve?
Eight years ago, she decided to explore this question with intention, bringing together her expertise in money, property and coaching to champion women into economic empowerment. She has never looked back. Today, she coaches women and couples in the areas of earning more, managing money effectively and learning how to multiply it, with property playing a central role in that journey.
She is deeply driven by the growing epidemic of poverty affecting women in Australia and around the world, and believes strongly that it will take women supporting women to create meaningful change.
Alongside her financial and property experience, she also has a deep working knowledge of the family law system and extensive experience navigating complex and unexpected life challenges. This has become one of her greatest strengths, and she is often sought out for her ability to provide creative, strategic guidance across money, personal and business matters.
On a personal note, she may appear tough on the outside, but she has a soft and sensitive heart. Her happiest moments are spent spreading random acts of kindness with her 15-year-old son. Above all, she is a woman who refuses to accept the status quo: that the face of poverty in Australia is female. With bravery, courage and collective action, she believes we can flip that script.

Suzanne Alexander, Mindful Finances
πLocation: Melbourne
I’m passionate about helping professional women take charge of their finances, by building strong financial foundations so they can live their abundant life.
Something that’s always surprised me is how much pressure we put on ourselves around what we SHOULD know about money.
When we think about it, it’s not something we really learn about in school. Everything we know about money we’ve learned from our own experiences and the money culture of the family we grew up in.
These in turn shape our beliefs, thoughts and feelings to create a mindset around money that doesn’t always serve us.
It doesn’t have to be this way.

Erin Davis, Mindful Finances
πLocation: New South Wales (NSW)
Erin Davis is a money mindset coach, accountant turned grounded rich girl and the creator of The Grounded Rich Girl, a movement and community for women who want to feel calm, confident and in control of their money (and their lives).
She knows what it’s like to feel stuck on someone else’s schedule, always “doing the right things” but never quite feeling free. These days, her calendar includes trail runs through the bush, ocean walks and lots of slow time - not because she has to, but because she can.
Erin helps women move from financial fog to crystal-clear confidence. Because getting good with money isn’t about restriction — it’s about flexibility. Spaciousness. Self-trust. And building a rich girl life that actually feels rich.

Naomi Holmes, Her Money Matters
πLocation: Sydney
She didn’t grow up learning about money. In fact, she began her studies in Sport Science and even wrote a thesis on knee reconstructions. While she didn’t pursue that field, the scientific mindset she developed has profoundly shaped the way she approaches financial advice today. After university, she worked as a bank teller at Westpac and quickly discovered a passion for financial advising. Within a year she entered the industry, and she has never looked back.
Over the past 25 years, she has worked as a financial adviser, led teams at ANZ and AMP, and specialised in high-net-worth clients. She has also built deep expertise in governance and compliance within the Self-Managed Superannuation Fund sector. She holds a Bachelor of Science (Honours), a Graduate Diploma in Financial Planning, the Certified Financial Planner designation, and an Executive MBA.
Throughout her career, she has seen firsthand that women often experience money differently. In an industry where women remain underrepresented, many feel disconnected or overwhelmed when making financial decisions. This inspired her to create Her Money Matters, a space dedicated to helping women take control of their financial futures with clarity, confidence and support.
Watching women shift from uncertain to empowered has become one of the most meaningful and rewarding aspects of her career.

Sandra McGuire, Money Wellness
πLocation: Melbourne
She is inspired to create a world where everyone has access to financial education and feels empowered to take control of their situation and achieve financial freedom.
She sees the way people struggle with money and understands how deeply it affects their lives. She also knows, with absolute certainty, that with the right support, people can move beyond these challenges and build the life they deserve.
Formerly a Financial Adviser and Accountant, she has spent many years working in advisory firms and superannuation funds. Through this experience, she has seen firsthand that the traditional financial advice model is often too complex and too costly, leaving many people without the guidance they need. She believes strongly in giving people access to the basic financial knowledge they were never taught in school, as well as helping them understand the money habits and beliefs that shape their decisions.
Her mission is to ensure that all members of the community have essential financial skills — a solid foundation that allows them to build their lives with confidence and achieve their goals.
