The Intentional Wealth Co.

Hi, I’m Tara Saxon — Certified Money Coach, former finance exec, and fierce advocate for smart, capable women who feel like they should have money figured out by now… but secretly don’t.

I help high-achieving women over 40 stop second-guessing their financial choices and start leading with confidence, clarity, and calm. Because money isn’t just math — it’s mindset, memory, and identity. And when you untangle the stories you’ve been carrying? That’s when everything starts to shift.

Here’s how I help my clients reset the script:

💭 REWRITE the money story you inherited — with clarity, compassion, and zero shame
📊 REBUILD practical systems that fit your values, lifestyle, and energy
🔓 RECLAIM your confidence and finally feel in control of every dollar you spend, save, or invest

No boring spreadsheets. No finance bro energy. Just powerful conversations, soulful strategy, and real-life resources that actually stick — including the kind that make sense for your season, your style, and your sanity.

You’ve done life. You’ve done career. Now it’s time to do money — like the woman you’re becoming.

Data Research Analyst

You’ve done everything right—the degree, the career, the house, maybe even the business.
But behind closed doors? You’re still awake at 3am, replaying money worries you thought success would solve. Surprise expenses keep derailing your plans. Retirement feels more like a question mark than a finish line. And that quiet voice whispers: “Why don’t I have this figured out by now?”

It’s not that you’re careless or clueless. It’s that you’re still carrying the money stories of generations past—chains of fear, scarcity, and silence that keep even brilliant women second-guessing when they should be soaring.

I’m Tara Saxon — Certified Money Coach, keynote speaker, and creator of the Intentional Wealth™ Framework.
I’ve lived the story myself: corporate high-flyer on the outside, quietly falling apart on the inside. I rebuilt from the ground up—and now I help high-achieving, independent women do the same. With a background in banking, finance, and business, I bring more than pep talks—I bring strategy, systems, and a framework that sticks.

Here’s the truth: until you break those inherited money patterns, no salary, spreadsheet, or side hustle will save you.
Because money isn’t just math—it’s memory, identity, and inheritance. Until you reset it at the root, the cycle keeps repeating.

🎤 Speaking
From keynotes to workshops, I wake audiences up to the hidden money patterns running their lives—and show them how to reset. My talks are bold, soulful, and unforgettable, sparking transformation that goes deeper than “inspiration” alone.

💬 Coaching & Programs
For women ready to take the leap, I offer 1:1 and group coaching that delivers the same reset in a personalised way.

🗂 Consulting & Advisory
I partner with organisations, associations, and women’s networks who want more than lip service to empowerment. Together, we design programs that shift financial confidence at scale. 

Who I Work With
→ Independent, high-achieving women who want to stop winging it with money and start leading with confidence.
→ Organisations and associations that know financial wellbeing is the missing piece in their DEI, leadership, and retention strategies.
→ Mixed-room audiences (corporates, IWD events, industry summits) who are hungry for a fresh take on money, mindset, and performance.

You’ve already done all the “right” things. Isn’t it time money felt right too?

💬 DM me if you’re ready to stop white-knuckling money and start owning your financial power.

One of the things I love most when I speak is watching the men in the room.

They nod.
They lean in.
They’re just as moved.

Because these conversations aren’t women’s issues.
They’re human ones.

Money, pressure, identity, confidence, decision-making under stress – none of these live in gendered silos.

While my heart is firmly committed to helping women, I will always speak to mixed rooms.

Because men can champion change just as powerfully as women.
And when they’re on board, systemic change moves faster.

This work doesn’t create division.
It creates understanding.

And that’s where real progress begins.

Certified Money Coach (CMC)® | Speaker | Trusted by accomplished, independent women who want more than spreadsheets. This isn’t financial planning. This is financial leadership. And it’s time.

I’m honoured to be returning as Money Mindset Mentor for a high-performance sales team within one of Japan’s most successful direct sales organisations.

This partnership began in 2024, continued throughout 2025, and will carry forward into 2026.

Ongoing relationships like this mean everything to me.

They signal trust.
They allow the work to deepen.
And they create results that are measurable, sustained, and meaningful.

When organisations commit to this work long-term, the impact compounds - not just in confidence and clarity, but in very real commercial outcomes.

That’s why we keep moving forward together.

Because when mindset, identity, and performance are aligned, the numbers follow.

We were handed a script.

Study hard.
Be independent.
Build a career.
Be present at home.
Be financially secure.
Be emotionally available.

Have it all.

What no one mentioned was the invisible tax attached to that script.

The mental load.
The financial responsibility.
The constant negotiation between ambition and belonging.

High-performing women aren’t struggling because they lack capability.

They’re carrying a version of success that was never structurally designed for sustainability.

This isn’t a resilience issue.

It’s a script issue.

If this feels familiar, pay attention.
