Embrace Financial Empowerment
Financial Consultations With Liz
No one cares as much about your financial health as you do. I will empower and educate you to take the best possible care of your money and, by extension, yourself.
Do you ever feel like this?
“I should know how to manage my money. At my age, I shouldn’t still be confused by this!”
“The last financial advisor I went to didn’t listen to me and used all kinds of jargon and acronyms I didn’t understand. It was so confusing that I’m not sure what I’m supposed to do next.”
“I’m worried I’ve done the wrong thing for so many years that I won’t be able to fix it. Do I even have enough time left to save for retirement?”
“I’m frustrated with how poorly I’ve managed my money over the years. I’m too embarrassed to even ask for help at this point.”
“I am the only person I know who doesn’t have their money under control.”
If that sounds familiar, I can help!
I will meet you where you’re at with your money–whether that means helping you figure out what you’re spending every month or advising you on detailed tax-advantaged strategies to facilitate early retirement.
I’m here for it all. What can I say? There’s nothing I love more than helping people with their money. Well, pastries might be loved more, but let’s not get into that…
Meet Your Financial Consultant
Hi, I’m Liz,
– though officially it’s Elizabeth Willard Thames – and I’m the creator of the award-winning personal finance blog, Frugalwoods.com, author of the book, Meet The Frugalwoods: Achieving Financial Independence Through Simple Living and a financial consultant.
I’ve been featured for my work on The Today Show, PBS, NPR, in the New York Times, Forbes, Parents Magazine and more. I received a BA from the University of Kansas, an MA from American University and then worked in the non-profit sector for a decade.
I now live on a homestead in rural Vermont with my husband, our two young children and nine chickens. When I’m not helping people with their money, I love to hike, do yoga, sing in my church’s choir, garden very badly, ski (also pretty badly), have bonfires with friends, go on dates with my husband and chase our kids (and chickens) around the yard.
Bottom Line: you’re so done being confused and disorganized with your money and you’re not sure how to get on the right track.
Let’s work together to ensure you’re leading the life you want, not the life your finances are forcing on you.

I will ensure that you understand your financial plan and all of the next steps you need to take.
