About Dr. Severine Bryan

Money doesn't have to scare you

I know how dark things can look

Divorced Single Mom, In Debt & No Savings

If you had looked at my finances after my divorce, you would have said things do not look good at all. And you would have been right.

I had no savings, was tens of thousands of dollars in debt, and had a credit score in the tank. 

But thanks to a financial planner who helped me create a plan for my particular life and circumstances, I was able turn my financial picture around very quickly. 

I Just Had to Work the Plan

In just under 4 years, I paid off $39k of student loan debt. I was able to also build a multiple five figure emergency fund and a multiple six-figure net worth. I also raised my credit score from the low 500s back into the 800s!

It wasn’t easy. I worked hard to keep my expenses as low as possible while bringing in as much extra money as I could.

The road might not have been easy, but it was so worth it. 

Now, as an Accredited Financial Counselor®, I educate, equip, and serve busy women so they can master their finances and live freely, no matter what stage of life they’re in. I work with them to maximize their money so they can find the same financial freedom!
