Money isn’t evil—extraction is.
build a healthy RELATIONSHIP with your money, spend according to your values, and build capacity for sharing and mutual aid.
If you’ve landed here, you’re probably already no stranger to Doing the Work:
You’re committed to dismantling systems of oppression and fighting fascism.
You’re here to call out white supremacy culture and grow your anti-racist practices.
You’re advocating for (and/or a proud member of) the queer, disabled, and other marginalized communities.
You celebrate that science is real, love is love, and N*zi scum can fuck right off.
In short: You know who you are, what you value, and what’s important to you.
you probably also hate capitalism and what it does to people…
…Except you’re also stuck living with and surviving that system you hate.
This means that even if you’re committed to your values, you might be stuck in financial survival mode, swimming in debt, tempted by social media ads, and binging on shopping sprees just to get any damn dose of dopamine in our current capitalist hellscape.
The justification I hear most often? “There’s no conscious consumption under capitalism.” (No shame, lovebug—we’ve all been there!)
Radical Wealth Collective exists to offer a middle ground: Just because there’s no conscious consumption under capitalism doesn’t mean you have to embrace the void and abandon every sense of personal responsibility.
Here’s what that might look like:
You can mindfully enjoy buying things that spark joy, but it doesn’t have to be your only source of dopamine.
You can build a solid financial future by learning about our existing systems, even while you work on divestment.
You can work towards habits you’re personally proud of, even as companies do whatever bullshit they’re going to do.
You can stop wealth-shaming your goals and desires and start viewing money as a tool that allows you to give back more than you ever thought possible.
If you feel called to bring greater alignment between your money and your values, Radical Wealth Collective is for you.
Coming February 2026: Radical Wealth Collective is a monthly financial empowerment membership for LGBTQ+ folx, BIPOC pals, and progressive allies who want to build a healthier relationship with money, crush debt, and build savings and wealth–while not abandoning their values along the way.
Welcome to your badass money community. Should we prep your swag bag?!
Your monthly online membership offering:
Judgment-free financial empowerment education,
Inclusive community, and
Anti-capitalist financial coaching in a group setting.
As a Radical Wealth Collective member, you can expect to:
01
04
Make consistent progress toward money goals
Frequent community emails and live sessions keep financial growth at the front of your mind and remind you to take small, consistent steps forward every day.
02
05
Stay on track & celebrate wins
Access live body-doubling meetups, budgeting sessions, money classes, group challenges, and more — as part of a squad that celebrates you showing up as your gorgeous, messy self.
03
Have confident, open conversations about money
Shame grows in silence, and we often think we’re the only ones struggling with our money. Being honest about our goals, needs, and fears invites self-compassion and builds conscious community instead.
Build momentum in a community that gets it
Swap ideas, commiserate about challenges, and cheer each other on for financial wins, big and small, that come from your hard work!
Get unstuck fast with personalized support
Soak up Q&As, live hot-seat coaching, and coach responses in the community group, so you get personalized feedback on your situation.
“Michelle’s workshops are always invigorating, forward-moving, and encouraging while also being grounded, doable, and realistic in their approach. Their goal-setting workshop was so very on-brand for all that. I would trust Michelle to lead me anywhere, but boldly into a sustainable new year is exactly where I need Michelle to be with me. Can't recommend her work highly enough!”
— Shannon T.

Hey friend, Money Nerd Michelle here 🤓
I’ve spent the last six years as a financial coach (and formerly as a financial advisor!) working with folks from all walks of life, helping them make more empowered financial decisions, and slowly improving my own values-based financial practices. Along the way, I’ve realized that:
Having someone else handle all your money stuff for you isn’t feasible (or preferable) for everyone.
You can know everything about money, and still struggle with the lifestyle change needed to reach your goals.
It’s rare to find spaces to discuss financial challenges that center marginalized voices.
That’s why I created a group program that’s all about making a serious IMPACT on your daily habits — to shape your most abundant and values-driven financial future.
We proudly offer this program on a 100% sliding scale basis.
We are committed to lowering the financial barrier to wellness by providing a sliding scale membership, based on the “green bottle” model by Alexis J. Cunningfolk.
(Please note that the true cost of running the program is consistent with the “Sustainer” membership; the other two tiers are reserved for comrades who have a true financial need.)
Sustainer Membership ($47/month)
You’re able to comfortably cover your expenses each month and generally feel financially stable
You’re focused on building wealth and planning for big purchases
Supported
Membership ($27/month)
You have some money stress, but you’re able to scrape by
You might be focused on building savings or paying down debt, but you’re also able to enjoy the occasional splurge or vacation
Community
Membership ($7/Month)
You experience financial stress and are unable to afford your monthly needs
You generally have no access to savings or financial privilege to support you.
-
This program was made first and foremost for LGBTQ+, BIPOC, and members of other marginalized groups. Because you deserve support to get ahead financially that centers your lived experiences.
You’re also welcome here if you’re a strong ally or supporter of these groups. If you’re seeking reliable, affordable resources to help you cut costs, save money, pay down debt, get financially organized, and start building wealth, this membership was made for you!
-
Yes! We keep doors open year round in order to make sure that folks can start their educational journey whenever they’re ready to dive in.
-
No problem! All live events are recorded, and the replays are available for you to watch anytime inside your member dashboard.
-
Just like anything in your financial life, this membership is very much a “you get out of it what you put into it” kind of experience. You’re encouraged to attend live sessions and participate in the community because that’s how you’ll benefit most!
That said, the experience is fully self-guided, flexible, and judgment-free. Show up as much or as little as you’re able, and catch up anytime through the live session replays in your member dashboard.
-
Nope! This is a 100% judgment-free environment for you to show up, ask questions, and get the support to start getting organized. Even if joining is step 1 for you.
We promise we’ve seen it all, and you’ll be fully accepted whether you’re navigating significant debt, mixed business and personal finances, or any other hairy situation. There’s no such thing as a silly question or problem that’s too big to solve. We see improving your financial situation as such a smart, courageous endeavor. One way or another, we’ll help you get moving toward your financial goals.
Frequently asked questions
-
You’ll have access to all of the membership content, including replays of our live coaching sessions and workshops, for as long as you're an active member.

That’s okay, friend! We’ve designed this program as a flexible, month-to-month subscription so that you can leave whenever you feel like you’ve gotten what you need from the experience.

“This was an amazing education for just about every money topic I could have asked for. It was just the thing I needed to go from feeling vaguely anxious about my money at all times, to empowered and aware of how to assess, create and manage financial wellness. Thank you!”

"“Michelle made the important info so easy to understand. She gives you a real breakdown of how you need to prepare financially for buying a home but also what to prepare for afterward, with real numbers and easy-to-understand guides. I took several classes from different sources to give me an intro to homebuying and Michelle's was far and away the best one.”
