Welcome to this episode of The Sustainable Business Spotlight with Amy Auble! I’m excited to introduce you to today’s guest Danielle Lemon, the founder of Aligned Living Financial. After spending 8 years in real estate, Danielle made a transformative shift in 2020 when she recognized the need to make financial literacy and resources more accessible to everyone. This insight led her to become a financial planner, dedicating herself to helping Canadians navigate their personal finance journeys. Through her business, Aligned Living Financial, Danielle helps individuals, specifically queer and female entrepreneurs, take control of their financial future with a focus on sustainable investing and mindfulness practices. She’s committed to continuously expanding her expertise to empower her clients to make informed financial decisions and build secure, aligned futures.
Money is something we all deal with every day, and when it comes to sustainable living, we often overlook its impact. Luckily, people like Danielle are showing us how we can better use our money for a more sustainable lifestyle.
