Some Words of Love from Clients
"I started working with Erika to learn how to save more, but what I discovered went much deeper... I realized I had money trauma I’d never acknowledged. In my culture, money isn’t something we grow up openly talking about, and that leads to unhealthy beliefs around spending and saving. It was honestly scary to look at my budget and face how I was really using my money.
But now, I feel empowered. I tell my money where to go instead of wondering where it went. Money doesn’t feel scary anymore. I’m still on my journey toward a blissful, abundant life, but I’ve already grown so much. Thank you, Erika, for creating such a safe and transformative space."

"Erika’s support was incredible—it felt amazing to be guided by someone who truly understood my struggles. Her constant encouragement helped me break through the mental walls I had built around money. I learned that I don’t have to suffer just because I have debt. I now understand the importance of paying myself first and have started seeing my debt not as a burden, but as something I have control over.
One of the most significant breakthroughs was learning about high-yield savings accounts and the benefits of investing. These weren’t just financial changes—they were mental and emotional ones too. I feel empowered and confident in my financial decisions now.
If you're thinking about working with Erika, here's what I’d tell you: Do it. You’ll feel supported every step of the way. Erika doesn’t just teach you about money—she helps you transform your relationship with it. You’ll walk away not only with practical tools but also with a renewed mindset and belief in your ability to thrive financially."

"I feel in control and since working with Erika my energy around money is shifting. She is so understanding, non- judgmental and will meet you where you are. I finished her framework with financial tools and resources to use AND with a better understanding of myself. She leads with empathy and let me know that there is nothing wrong with me, and that I’m a work in progress - so encouraging! I am very close to paying off my debt. I’ll finish the year with an emergency fund. I’m saving for a vacation in December, and I’m continuing to work on improving my vision for what a Blissful Vida is for me and my family."

"Working with Erika has been nothing short of transformational.
She brought clarity, safety, and compassion to a part of my life that once felt overwhelming—mi dinero. Her guidance didn’t just help me budget; it helped me heal. By creating a space where I could talk openly about financial trauma, Erika helped me move through the shame and into strategy. Because of her, I finally feel aligned with how I manage, spend, and allocate mi dinero. Erika, mil gracias for holding me accountable with love and intention. You’ve helped me rewrite my relationship with dinero!"

"After participating in Blissful Vida’s 3-part workshop, I was able to discover some subconscious beliefs about money that have been holding me back from living a financially blissful vida. Moving forward I will use the budgeting techniques presented to me and will continue to work with Erika so that I can continue to work on my finances. Thank you, Erika, for having these empowering workshops and I look forward to participating in any upcoming workshops you may have and highly recommend working with Erika!"
