Tara Sullivan

Personal-Finance Coach and Budgeting Writer

Tara Sullivan helps people living paycheck to paycheck find a little breathing room. She spent years coaching real households through tight budgets, first as a community financial educator and then one-on-one, and she knows that "just save more" is useless advice when the math does not work.

Her writing focuses on the small, doable moves that actually free up cash: stretching a paycheck, building a starter budget, and breaking the paycheck-to-paycheck cycle. Warm and never preachy, she meets readers where they are and hands them one concrete step to take this week.
