Worried you make too much to get significant financial aid for college?
I’ll show you where the money really is for your child.
It’s not your income that will determine how much you pay for college – it’s your strategy.
You have worked hard, made responsible financial decisions, and created a good life for your family. None of that was a mistake.
But your income does not tell the whole story of what your family will pay for college. Most parents do not understand how many places college money can come from and the true factors that determine a family’s price point.
Your child’s SCHOLAR Profile matters.
Your college choices matter.
Your scholarship strategy matters.
A lot of parents are raising good students. But good grades alone do not produce a scholarship strategy.
You want to raise a SCHOLAR — because SCHOLARS get dollars for college.
That’s why I want you to join us in SCHOLAR Prep™.
SCHOLAR Prep is a series of live virtual workshops for moms – and yes, dads we’ll let you in too :-) – who want to provide an excellent education without exhausting their savings or sacrificing their peace of mind.
Together, we’ll explore the full scholarship landscape, identify the opportunities that best fit your child, and begin putting the systems in place to pursue real money for college.

You Have Already Done the Math
It’s true that full-ride scholarships are hard to come by. And even with great grades, your child still might not get enough money from their college to make the cost “affordable” for your family.
So in the back of your mind, you are already asking yourself if you can work more hours, tap home equity, or touch your retirement to pay the balance. The question is not whether you love your child enough to do it. Of course you do. The question is what that bill could cost the rest of your life.
Delayed retirement? Years of private student loan repayments? Telling your child you just can’t afford their dream school – after they worked so hard, all these years?
If you’re grappling with these questions, SCHOLAR Prep was designed for you.
Categories
High Income Closes Some Doors. But It Doesn’t Lock You Out.
Need-based aid and academic merit are only two parts of the college-money picture. After years of working with families like yours, I’ve identified these 14 Scholarship Categories — connected to service, activities, special interests, careers, employers, professional associations, civic organizations, colleges, and more. There are opportunities right under your nose that you don’t know to ask about.
THE REFRAME: The goal is not to chase every scholarship on the internet. Instead, we’ll strengthen your child’s SCHOLAR Profile so they can attract opportunities that fit who they are and where they are going.
SCHOLAR Prep Turns Worry Into a Working Plan
This is not a webinar where you take notes, close the laptop, and then feel guilt about making time to get back to it. SCHOLAR Prep is a series of facilitated work sessions.
And you do it beside like-minded moms who are tired of losing sleep over the cost of college. By the end of our time together, you will know where your child stands, which opportunities deserve your family’s attention, and what to do next.
You’ll leave with a plan, precise action steps, and the head start most families do not realize they need.
I Teach. You Apply.
I Guide. You Make Decisions.
You Will Leave With More Than Information
- Assess your child’s SCHOLAR™ Profile and identify the areas that need attention before opportunities are missed.
- Build a College and Scholarship Team of people who can recommend, advise, connect, encourage, and hold your child accountable.
- Create a repeatable scholarship system — with dedicated Scholarship Time, a tracker, and timelines that fit your family’s real life.
- Prioritize opportunities by fit, proximity, odds, shared materials, and renewable value — not simply the largest award or nearest deadline.
- Uncover money available through generous colleges, employers, professional organizations, civic groups, and other sources you may not know to explore.
- Help you support your child’s college and scholarship essays without taking over their voice or doing the work for them.
YOUR OUTCOME: You leave as a more informed and strategic guide for your family—with clarity about where college money can come from, which opportunities deserve your child’s effort, and what each of you needs to do next.
Scholarship Success
What The Program Includes
A full SCHOLAR Prep assessment and action plan for your child. The SCHOLAR Prep digital workbooks (organized in a Google Folder) — built for decisions and action, not burdensome pre-work.
The SCHOLAR Prep Scholarship Resource List, featuring 60+ opportunities across all 14 Scholarship Categories so you can practice spotting fit and possibility. A print copy of Scholars Get Dollars – mailed to you, the book behind the strategy we will put into action together.
Plus plug-and-play scripts for key record and letter of recommendation requests, an interactive scholarship tracker, a scholarship essay storybank guide, scholarship search map, and college-money research prompts to use with your AI agent of choice.
SCHOLAR Prep Is for the Mom Who…
Earns too much to count on meaningful need-based aid — but not enough to treat six-figure college costs like pocket change.
Has a child in high school and wants to prepare before the pressure of senior-year deadlines takes over.
Believes her child has scholarship potential but does not know all the places to look for that money.
Wants to support her child through the process without becoming the one applying to college all over again.
It’s Not for the Parent Looking For…
A guaranteed award, a magic scholarship list, or permission to do the student’s work. No one can promise what a scholarship committee will decide.
What we can build is a smarter strategy, better preparation, and a repeatable system for scholarship success.
Don’t Accept the Remaining Balance Yet
Your income may affect what your family receives. It does not tell you every place scholarship money can come from. It does not decide which colleges are most generous with aid. And it does not mean your savings have to become the first and only solution.
Leave with a wider view of what is possible — and a plan your family can actually follow.
Your child’s future should not come at the expense of your own.
