Real People, Real Financial Wisdom

We started paesavevivyo because too many Australians felt lost when it came to money. Our mission is simple: make financial education accessible, practical, and genuinely helpful.

How We Got Started

Back in 2019, I was sitting in a coffee shop in Perth when a friend confessed she had no idea what super actually meant. This brilliant woman — a nurse saving lives every day — felt completely overwhelmed by basic financial concepts.

That conversation stuck with me. Here's someone doing crucial work, yet our financial system made her feel inadequate. I realized this wasn't just her problem; it was everywhere.

So we built paesavevivyo to bridge that gap. Not with complicated jargon or unrealistic promises, but with straightforward education that actually makes sense for everyday Australians.

What Drives Us Forward

These aren't just pretty words on a website. They're the principles that guide every course we create and every interaction we have.

Plain English Always

Financial concepts don't need to be complex. We explain everything in terms you'd use with a friend over dinner. No buzzwords, no showing off — just clear, useful information.

Real-World Focus

Every lesson connects to actual situations you'll face. Whether it's buying a house, planning for kids, or figuring out insurance, we stick to what matters in your daily life.

Honest Expectations

We won't promise overnight transformations or guaranteed wealth. Instead, we focus on building steady confidence with money decisions that compound over time.

The People Behind paesavevivyo

We're a small team with big hearts for financial education. Each of us brings different experiences, but we all share the same goal: helping you feel more confident with money.

Thessaly Brennan

Financial Education Director

After working in banking for twelve years, Thessaly got tired of seeing people intimidated by their own money. She left corporate life to create educational content that actually helps. When she's not developing courses, you'll find her hiking around the Perth hills with her two rescue dogs.

Briony Ashworth

Client Success Manager

Briony joined us in 2021 after managing customer experience for a major Australian retailer. She has this amazing ability to spot exactly where people get stuck and figure out how to help them move forward. Her background in adult education keeps our courses practical and engaging.

How We Build Each Course

Creating educational content that actually works takes time. Here's our process for developing courses that make a real difference.

Listen to Real Challenges

We start by talking to Australians about their actual money questions. Not what we think they should know, but what keeps them up at night or stops them from taking action.

Research Local Context

Australian financial rules are unique. We dig deep into current regulations, tax implications, and market conditions that affect everyday decisions for people living here.

Test with Real People

Before any course goes live, we test it with volunteers who represent our actual audience. Their feedback shapes everything from examples to pacing to visual design.

Refine Based on Results

After launch, we track which sections help people most and where they get stuck. This ongoing feedback loop keeps our content relevant and effective.

Our Promise to You

We're not here to sell you dreams or quick fixes. We're here to provide solid financial education that respects your intelligence and fits your real life. Every course we create is designed to help you make better money decisions with confidence.
