Money Investigation is a safe space where you can investigate your money without judgment, shame or guilt, connect with other ADHD women having similar experiences, and get support as you move through the process so you can go from chaos to clarity and mayhem to momentum
As a women with ADHD, do you wonder why money doesn't stick around for very long?
Payday comes in and everything feels fine.
Then you check your balance and it’s lower than expected.
You earn good money. The bills are getting paid. And yet you may still have debt, not much in savings, or no clear idea where the money went.
Maybe you’ve tried budgeting apps, spreadsheets or tracking before, but nothing sticked.
Life got busy, your executive energy dropped, and money slipped down the list until something made it urgent again. That can leave you thinking:
I should know this by now.
I make enough money. Why am I still dealing with this?
Why can’t I just stay on top of it?
Before deciding you’re bad with money, it may be worth looking at the evidence.
That’s what Money Investigation™ is designed to help you do using, systems that fit the way your ADHD brain is wired.
Instead of starting with another budget, stricter rules or a system you’re expected to keep up with, we start by investigating what’s already happening.
Your numbers.
Where your money goes.
The beliefs influencing your decisions.
What the ADHD, emotional and situational triggers are.
And what helps you stay engaged with money when your executive energy is low.
Because it’s much easier to decide what needs to change once you understand what’s actually going on.
By the end of Money Investigation™, you’ll be able to:
-
Identify the financial numbers that matter most instead of feeling like you need to understand everything at once.
-
See where your money is actually going instead of relying on memory or wondering where it disappeared.
-
Recognize recurring money patterns that are easy to miss when you’re only looking at individual purchases.
-
Spot the beliefs and triggers influencing your decisions before they quietly run the show.
-
Understand what makes money easier or harder for your ADHD brain to engage with.
-
Know what deserves your attention next instead of leaving with another vague promise to “get better with money.”
-
Increase financial self-trust by understanding what happens to your money and why—even during weeks when your brain has very little left to give.
Is Money Investigation for you?
It for you if…
-
You’re a woman with ADHD who earns decent or good money but still wonders where it went.
-
Money often gets your attention only when there’s a problem or urgency.
-
You’ve tried money systems before but struggled to stay engaged with them.
-
You want to understand your patterns instead of constantly telling yourself to try harder.
-
You want a practical process that helps you look at your money without turning it into a judgment of your character.
Money Investigation™ is NOT for you if…
-
You’re looking for individualized financial planning advice.
-
You want a strict budget and someone to tell you exactly what you’re allowed to spend.
-
You’re looking for a quick hack or magic fix.
-
You're not open to do things differently and don't like out of the beaten track approaches.
-
You're not willing to look at things from a new perspective and expect getting results without doing the work.
Money Investigation™ takes you through five investigative missions.
Each mission helps you uncover one piece of the bigger picture so you can understand what’s happening with your money and why.
Mission 1 — Find Your Numbers
You’ll identify the financial numbers you need to see clearly without trying to make sense of everything at once.
What this gives you: a starting point based on facts instead of assumptions.
Mission 2 — Follow the Money Trail
You’ll look at where your money has actually been going—not where you think it went or where it was supposed to go.
What this gives you: a clearer picture of what happens between money coming in and your balance being lower than expected.
Mission 3 — Beware of Money Beliefs
You’ll identify some of the beliefs, expectations and money rules that may be influencing your decisions behind the scenes.
What this gives you: a better ability to separate financial facts from old stories about money.
Mission 4 — Know Your Money & Spending Triggers
You’ll investigate the ADHD, emotional and situational triggers that can affect how you spend, avoid money or make decisions.
What this gives you: more awareness of what tends to happen before a money behaviour instead of only noticing it afterward.
Mission 5 — Make Money Matter
You’ll look at what makes money easier or harder for your ADHD brain to engage with, especially when your capacity is lower.
What this gives you: a clearer understanding of what helps you stay connected to your money with less mental effort.
Money Investigation™ is delivered live online on Saturday, October 24, 2026.
I’m Zarina Boily, a certified ADHD coach, ADHD and money coach, former journalist and fellow Gen-X ADHDer.
When I first started figuring out how ADHD affected money, it felt pretty lonely.
I was trying to understand my own brain, my patterns and why so much traditional money advice didn’t seem to fit.
And I remember wishing I had other women around me who were going through the same thing.
Women I could talk to without having to explain everything first.
Women who understood that knowing what to do and being able to consistently do it are not always the same thing with ADHD.
I want Money Investigation™ to be a safe space where women can investigate their money without judgment, connect with others having similar experiences, and get support as they move through the process.
You don’t have to figure everything out alone.
And you don’t have to arrive with your financial life neatly organized before you begin.
