Financial Independence (FI) isn’t about quitting it all. It’s about reclaiming your time and energy — so life feels less like a grind and more like yours again.
Success looks good.
Options feel better.

That's where Financial Independence comes in.
Here's the truth:
You don’t need to settle for autopilot. You don’t need to blow up everything you’ve built, either. You just need options — the breathing room, clarity, and energy to create a life that actually fits.
- You’ve done everything “right” — career, family, milestones — but you’re just tired.
- Life looks good on paper, but it just feels “fine”.
- You're following the flow of "normal," yet it's heavy and unfulfilling
- You’re caught between grinding harder or quitting it all, and neither feels right.
You’re in the right place if…
Options. Freedom. Energy.
I’m not here to give you another set of rules. I’m here to help you blow up the ones that don’t fit.
You don’t need to deprive yourself or wait until retirement to take your power back. You need clarity, aligned action, and the confidence to trust yourself.
That’s what financial independence really is:
Simple math + choices + the courage to live it.
You’re different. You’re a dark horse — and this is your edge.
I'm here for the high achievers who don’t fit the mold.
I'm Jessica yancey.
Hi there.
For years, I checked the boxes.
Built the career. Hit the milestones. Provided for my family.
On paper, it looked great. But underneath, I kept hearing: This isn’t it. There has to be more.
I ignored it because…
✔️ I’d worked too hard to get here.
✔️ It was stable for my family.
✔️ And honestly? I didn’t even know what I wanted instead — and that felt terrifying.
So I convinced myself it was “fine.”
Until I couldn’t anymore.
That’s when I found Financial Independence. Not as some extreme retire-early plan — but as a way to create options, breathing room, and energy to actually live now.
I adjusted the math. We shifted how we spent and saved. That’s what built my F-You fund — a cushion of freedom money that gave me options. Options to say no. Options to pivot. Options to stop pretending “fine” was enough.
And here’s the truth: if someone like me — with kids, a mortgage, and a high-pressure career — can build this kind of freedom, so can you.
(I’ve spent 20+ years leading in Fortune 500 companies, got a Top 20 MBA, and built this FI path with my family. I get the pressure, the politics, the exhaustion - and I know how to help you shift course without losing what you’ve already built... or losing your mind.)
I don’t believe success is about pushing harder, proving yourself more, or hustling until you burn out. That’s force — the kind of catabolic energy that drains you and keeps you stuck on autopilot.
Real success? It’s about having options. Breathing room. The energy to make choices from clarity instead of pressure. And I only know that because I lived the other way first.
And here's something else you should know.
Frequently asked Questions:
I love the term! Because it’s dramatic — and I’m not usually into drama. But the vision of saying, “F-you, I’m done here,” mic drop, walk out? That’s fun. Even if you never say it out loud, just knowing you could makes bad days way more tolerable.
Why do you always talk about F-You Money?
It’s not about stuff. It’s about options. F-You money is a cushion of savings that gives you breathing room — and the confidence to say, “I’m done here,” when something doesn’t fit.
What is F-You Money?
We are talking FI. FI is short for Financial Independence. FIRE is a broader movement of that includes folks with the goal of Retiring Early - way before 65.
How's that different from FI or FIRE?
Forget the “hustle ‘til 65” script. Financial Independence is about flipping the equation so money supports your life — not the other way around. It’s not about yachts or quitting your job tomorrow. It’s about freedom money: enough saved and invested that you have options. Work if you want. Walk away if you don’t. Live on your terms.

The math matters. We get clear on what’s coming in, what’s going out, and how to build your freedom fund so the numbers actually work for you.
Let's chat
Working together 1:1, we clear the noise, adjust the math, and create your values-aligned path to financial independence.
Because if it were just about numbers, you’d already feel free.
The real tangle? Everything wrapped around the math.
Emotions
Knowing where your money goes isn’t hard. Deciding where it should go is. I help you line up your financial choices with what actually matters — not the “shoulds.”
Comparison traps. Overthinking every choice. Doubting yourself because you’re doing it differently. I help you quiet the chaos and trust your own math.
Fear, guilt, pressure… they sneak into money decisions. I help you cut through that so you can move with clarity.
When you pair solid numbers with values-aligned choices and a clear head, you don’t just build financial independence. You build breathing room.
