Hey girl! I’m AttiQuewa — and if there’s one thing life has taught me, it’s that balance is something you build, not something you magically wake up with.

For years, people knew me as ThatFinanceChick — sharing tips, systems, and strategies like clockwork. What started as a small pit stop became a whole identity I didn’t even realize I was clinging to. Somewhere along the way, I found myself hiding behind the “finance expert” role instead of walking fully into what God was actually calling me to do.

The truth is, I’ve spent a lot of time trying to do things in my own strength — teaching, finances, life decisions, all of it. And while it looked polished on the outside, it didn’t always feel that way on the inside. I hit seasons where my peace, confidence, and sense of purpose were shaken. Not because I didn’t know what to do, but because I was trying to carry everything alone.

That’s when God slowed me down.

He showed me that balance doesn’t come from perfection — it comes from surrender, from partnership, from letting Him guide the areas I used to control.

And that’s where this new chapter began.

Now, balancing faith, finances, teaching, and womanhood looks like taking things one step at a time, making decisions with intention, and keeping God at the center. It’s not about having it all figured out — it’s about building a stronger foundation and allowing Him to shape every part of my life.

And here’s the part I’m documenting in real time:

I’m not sharing this from a “finished product” place. I’m sharing as I go — the lessons, the wins, the resets, and the moments where God gently checks me and redirects me.

Because I know I’m not the only woman juggling work, family, finances, purpose, and faith while trying to keep everything aligned.

Through my content, tools, and community, I’m creating space for us to talk about what balance actually looks like — not in theory, but in real life. If you want a deeper dive into the conversations we’ve had across platforms, my A Balanced Life Newsletter/Blog is a great place to start. You can subscribe at the bottom of the page.

So if you’ve ever felt like you’re doing all the things but still trying to find your footing, you’re not alone. I’m navigating it too — with grace, with faith, and with a whole lot of honesty.

We’re building something sustainable together — one balanced step at a time. 💚
