Tania P. Brown, CFP®, AFC® | Job Exit Strategist

Let's be real. Figuring out how not to go broke when you quit corporate feels impossible (Hint: It’s possible).

You’re overwhelmed by information that’s a hot mess of:
  • Overly complex or too simplistic—never what a future boss actually needs.
  • Judgmental, making you feel like a terrible person for wanting to not make sure you dont go homeless.
That noise sells a big fat lie that you only have two options:
Option 1: Stay miserable as your spark slowly flickers out.
Option 2: Make a reckless leap of faith, crossing your fingers and praying you don't land in a financial freefall.
I’ll teach you a surprisingly simple, step-by-step method to financially prepare to quit your job & become self-employed -whether you're starting with $10 or $100k. 
Tired of feeling lost, not knowing where to start?

HELLO! I’m Tania CFP®, AFC®- Job Exit Strategist

I Built My Own Corporate Escape Plan, And I’ll Teach You How To Build Yours. 

After my leap, I discovered the frustrating truth: We were all trying to fit our dreams into overly complex, traditional financial plans.

These plans weren't built for the 24-month financial bridge you need to survive. They were built for a 30-year retirement, and they crumble the second 'life be lifing.'

It was like fitting a square peg into a round hole.

The Better Way

I discovered a better way to transition—a plan built for imperfect lives that would have allowed me to leave sooner, with a whole lot less stress.

As a CFP® & AFC® professional with 20+ years in finance, my passion is to show women, particularly those 40+, how to financially prepared to quit their job & become self-employed.

Whether you're starting with $10 or $100K saved, your exit deserves a plan that works even when the world doesn't

  • "I Thank God for bringing Tania into my life"

    She’s given me invaluable financial guidance. I was busted and disgusted. Tania gave me a plan and a purpose for my finances that ultimately changed my life!"

    -Alease-

  • "Tania walked me through one of the most difficult times of my life."

    I juggled a corporate job, elderly parent care, and raising three teenagers. I felt a tug in my heart to switch careers to teaching, but I didn’t fully understand why; the idea felt so impractical and out of reach.

    Tania had a knack for asking questions that helped our family flesh out our motivations and fears without judgment. Tania’s coaching also helped me overcome the logistical obstacles that were keeping me from taking the first steps. She also helped me shape my vision for what God was calling me towards, which gave me the courage and strength to make leaving the corporate world a reality. I will forever be grateful to have shared this journey with Tania!

FAQs

  • Absolutely not. Your age is your superpower! You have decades of corporate experience, a built-in network, and the kind of wisdom that only comes with time. The biggest fear isn't that you're too old; it's that you'll regret not doing it sooner. It’s time to lean into that wisdom and make this new chapter the best one yet. description

  • You’re not alone! Many women feel like they need a million dollars in the bank to take the leap. The truth is, it’s not about how much you have; it’s about having a realistic, personalized plan for the transition. We’ll show you how to build a financial bridge that supports you, whether you’re taking a strategic bunny hop or a big jump.

  • Listen, I get it. Math isn’t everyone’s love language, and that’s perfectly okay. My job is to translate confusing numbers into a clear, confident path to self-employment. We'll ditch the jargon and focus on the numbers that actually matter, so you can stop stressing and start building your business.

  • Great question! While I am a certified financial professional, I go far beyond traditional financial coaching. This is the secret sauce.

    My expertise as a Certified Financial Planner (CFP®) and Accredited Financial Counselor (AFC®), along with my deep knowledge in benefits, taxes, business financials, and other areas crucial to a successful corporate exit, allows me to go deeper in my guidance than most.

    I've also had the privilege of helping a variety of people build their own job exit strategies, which has given me a unique expertise in this area. I'll help you build the financial, emotional, and mental bridge to a confident transition to self-employment.

    We'll work on everything from strategically using your corporate benefits to creating a realistic income plan, so you can build a life you love without going broke.

  • It can feel like a financial alphabet soup out there. Here’s the simple breakdown:

    • A Financial Therapist is like a detective, helping you go back to the past to heal old wounds that impact your money today.

    • A Financial Advisor is like a master builder, focused on investing and helping you construct and preserve wealth for the future.

    • A Financial Coach is your personal financial GPS. I look at where you are right now and help you use your money as a tool to build the life you want, both today and in the future.

    And here’s the secret sauce: as a CFP® & AFC® professional, I uniquely blend all three. I'll help you heal from past money traumas, build a financial plan for the future, and coach you on the present behaviors that are keeping you stuck. My goal is to get you from confused to confident so you can build a life you love.

  • We get this question all the time! Our services provide the financial guidance and education you need to make your own informed decisions. We don't offer specific investment, insurance, tax, or legal advice.

    Think of it like this: we’re teaching people how to fish (coaching), not giving people a fish (advice).

    The ultimate goal is for you to confidently make financial decisions on your own, so you can continue building a life you love without us.

  • Yes... and no.

    The internet is full of generic information, but it can't do the most important work for you. It can’t curate it for your unique situation, filter out what's outdated, or provide the right information in the right order.

    It also can't do the things that truly matter:

    • Help you navigate the emotional roller coaster of the transition, which can self-sabotage your success.

    • Catch limiting beliefs that are in your questions and tone of voice.

    • Discern when seemingly good advice on the internet is actually bad advice for your specific needs.

    Ultimately, a website can give you information, but a human guide gives you the wisdom and accountability to get it done.

  • This is the most common thought that keeps women from starting! It's like saying you need to be in perfect shape before you can go to the gym.

    The truth is, you don’t need to get your finances in order to start; you get your finances in order by starting. We're here to help you get unstuck, not to judge where you are right now.

    My services are designed to meet you exactly where you are and give you a clear, personalized action plan to get your financial house in order. We'll start with the messy parts and work together to turn them into a clear, confident path to your new life. description
