The Dream At 12 years old, I wanted a horse. My dad gave me a challenge: “Save half, and I’ll cover the rest by your 16th birthday.”
The Plan That challenge became my first real financial roadmap. I built a budget, set a savings goal, and committed. ✔ Yard work. Babysitting. Birthday money. After-school job. ✔ Every dollar had a purpose.
The Moment Four years later, I handed my dad an envelope filled with savings. True to his word, he matched it—and together, we bought a horse named Lifejacket.
The Lesson It was never just about the money. That experience taught me that the true goal was more than merely saving money. It taught me patience, planning, and the joy of working toward something that sets your soul on fire.
The Legacy That early experience shaped everything. It’s why I believe in planning with purpose—and why Lifetime of Care exists today.
The Mission While volunteering with the Marine Corps Navy Relief Society, we provided one-on-one financial counseling to military families, helping them create personalized plans for financial stability and growth.
The Family One young military couple had two heartfelt goals: buy their first home and welcome a puppy into their growing family.
The Plan Together, we built a disciplined budgeting strategy. Over nearly two years, we tracked income, reduced expenses, and nurtured smart savings habits—turning everyday choices into future milestones.
The Breakthrough With persistence and planning, they reached their goal. ✔ They moved into their first home. ✔ They brought home a playful new puppy.
The Impact Their story is a testament to what’s possible with clear goals, structure, and unwavering commitment. Strategic financial planning didn’t just change their bank account—it transformed their life.
