THE PERSON BEHIND WEALTHINASSETS
The person behind WealthInAssets — passionate about making personal finance easier to understand, more practical, and more empowering.
WealthInAssets was built from a simple belief: financial education should help people feel more confident about the decisions they make with their money.
Why Wealth in Assets Exists: My Story
I grew up in Ireland as the eldest of four children. From a young age, I learned what it meant to look after myself and the people around me. My parents worked countless jobs to provide for us, but there was rarely room for the extras. I remember looking at that reality and quietly promising myself: this will not be my future.
For me, money was never simply about having nice things. It became about freedom, security and having a choice.
That became deeply personal when I needed life-changing surgery. At a time when I felt completely powerless, the money I had managed to save while at university gave me access to private healthcare—and ultimately changed my life. I understood then just how powerful financial security could be.
Money gives you options. It gives you peace of mind. It gives you greater control over what happens next.
Today, through Wealth in Assets, I work alongside a team of highly qualified professionals to help others build the financial knowledge, confidence and understanding I wish everyone had access to earlier in life.
Because financial literacy shouldn’t feel exclusive or overwhelming. You deserve to understand your money, build your future intentionally, and create more options for yourself.
Your financial future can change. It starts with what you learn today.
Like a lot of people, my early understanding of money came from watching and figuring things out — not from being taught directly.
The more I learned, the more I realised how many people around me felt the same way: unsure, overwhelmed, or simply never taught the basics.
That realisation became WealthInAssets — a space built to make financial education practical, approachable, and genuinely useful.
Today, WealthInAssets brings together coaching, cohorts, events, and resources — all built around real financial education, not generic advice.
The vision is simple: keep making financial education more accessible, for more people, at whatever stage they’re starting from.
THE PURPOSE
Money can feel complicated — not because people aren’t capable of understanding it, but because so many of us were never actually taught how it works. Financial information is everywhere, but clear, practical guidance is harder to find.
WealthInAssets exists to change that: personal finance coaching and financial education focused on helping you understand your options and build the confidence to make informed decisions — not on telling you what to do with your money.
01
Financial confidence starts with understanding how money works.
02
The more you understand your finances, the more confidently you can make decisions.
03
Building wealth is also about mindset, habits, choices, and long-term thinking.
04
You do not need to have everything figured out before taking your first step.
A MESSAGE FROM THE FOUNDER
“You don’t need to know everything about money to start making better financial decisions. Sometimes, the most important first step is simply understanding where you are, where you want to go, and what you need to learn along the way.”
— Desirée, Founder of WealthInAssets
Desiree gave me a great introduction to financial literacy. Everything was coherent, well explained and it wasn’t complicated. No information overload. I had to recommend her to my brother halfway through and now we’re on this journey together.

I really appreciated how Desirée gave me the floor to pick what I’d like to learn once she realised I wasn’t absorbing the material well from the beginning. I’ve always been bad with money but the psychological training we went through has really helped me understand delayed gratification.
