Shawna and David Sullivan, CFA
A few years ago, David and Shawna decided to link arms to help others discover a rich life that has nothing to do with money. This process took not only a renewing of their mind but also realignment with the heart of God.
Each with a Masters in Accounting, they tend to view life through the lens of investing.
As we go about our days, we can either spend our time and money towards things of lasting value or fleeting pleasure. David and Shawna want to help you discover the courage to spend your life wisely without losing joy.
We are here for you.
How do you know which direction is best?
How can unnecessary conflict be avoided along the way?
How do you discover joy in a life of faithfulness?
We are so glad you asked.

Three Money Mistakes to Avoid
“Shawna and David Sullivan discuss the importance of addressing money issues in the new year with honesty and no judgement. They highlight the three primary mistakes people make with money: overspending, mindless spending, and over-saving.
Shawna and David also share their personal experiences in navigating money differences in their 20-year marriage.”
Avoiding Financial Blind Spots
Since money is a faith that we can see, so many times we are blind to the ways we put our trust in it over our Heavenly Father.
Listen to this podcast, where Shawna addresses our blind spots with our finances and what we can do to see clearly and find freedom. This is such an important conversation. Let’s keep it going.
