Live Financial Planning Cohort

Build your path to financial independence, together.

A live, 8-session class for anyone building toward financial independence, not near retirement, not quite ready for a full 1:1 plan yet. You bring a piece of your own situation, we build one example together, based on the group's input, and walk through it session by session.

How the Cohort Works

Eight sessions, shaped by you

Virtual, 90-minute interactive sessions held weekly. The exact order adapts based on what the group needs, but every cohort covers the same core areas. All classes are recorded and available to you for one year.

A little about me

Hi, I'm Irene, a Financial Planner running a 1:1 advisory practice for clients nearing retirement or with more complex situations. dyff education came out of a simple observation: a lot of people want to get their finances in order long before they need a full financial plan. This cohort is my way of teaching those same concepts to people at your stage, live and interactive.
