HI BFF’S! IT’S YOUR GIRL AQILA!
I’m Aqila Collins also known as your financial BFF. By day I work a typical 9 to 5 in marketing, and by night I’m a financial coach. I focus on teaching my BFFs (that’s you) how to take control of your finances, eliminate stress, and let your money work for you baby!
Making money has always been easy for me. I’ve never been afraid of hardwork, as long as it made sense. Saving wasn’t my main priority yet I quickly learned how to manage less when I was fired from a job. Girl yes, fired. Don’t feel bad, I was about to quit and God had other plans. He allowed me to get fired to #1 humble myself, #2 rely on him, and #3 use that time to understand finances so I can share with you. See, everything happens for a reason.
I became a certified Financial Coach after praying to God about my purpose. Each time he revealed my purpose it was around finances. I asked God if he was sure and he revealed a bible verse that said, “only a fool keeps asking God for signs” (epic mic drop). I’ll wait…., get your laugh out. Yes, God called me a fool (smh/rotfl) and people say the man upstairs doesn’t have a sense of humor.
My goal is to share my passion for financial literacy, change the money conversation throughout our communities and help you become Financially Unbothered you forget payday! Let me help shift the narrative in your home from surviving to thriving.
I look forward to working with you!
