About Me

Shalom! I’m Laura —

the heart behind Abide & Thrive Financial.

I started this business because I saw how many small business owners were carrying the weight of their finances alone. Not just the bookkeeping itself, but the stress, confusion, pressure, and constant feeling of trying to keep up while managing everything else life demands.

I know what it feels like to juggle a lot. As a single mom raising three children — including children with special needs — I understand the importance of stewardship, resilience, grace, and trusting God through every season.

My faith has shaped every part of how I approach both life and business. I believe God calls us to steward wisely what He entrusts to us, whether that’s our homes, finances, businesses, families, or gifts. And I believe bookkeeping can be part of that stewardship.

That’s why Abide & Thrive Financial is built differently.

This isn’t just about spreadsheets and reports. It’s about helping real people build sustainable businesses with clarity, confidence, and peace of mind. It’s about creating relationships where clients feel supported instead of judged. It’s about bringing organization to the chaos so business owners can focus on serving others and walking in their calling.

Why I Love Serving Small Businesses

Small businesses are personal. They represent dreams, sacrifices, long nights, risks, prayers, and hard work.

I especially love working with:

  • New business owners

  • Women entrepreneurs

  • Faith-based businesses

  • Service providers

  • Family-run businesses

  • Holistic wellness and fitness professionals

Many small business owners feel intimidated by bookkeeping.

They worry they’re “too behind,” “too disorganized,” or “too small” to ask for help.

But honestly? Most people simply need someone patient, trustworthy,

and willing to walk alongside them without making them feel embarrassed.

That’s the environment I strive to create.

What to Expect Working With Me

Clear Communication

I want bookkeeping to feel approachable, not overwhelming.

Honest Support

I care about helping your business grow in a healthy, sustainable way.

Judgment-Free Help

Whether your books are spotless or months behind, you’re welcome here.

A Personal Relationship

I value connection and truly getting to know the people I work with.

Faith-Based Values

Integrity, stewardship, honesty, kindness, and excellence guide how I serve my clients.

More Than Numbers

At the end of the day, bookkeeping is about more than transactions. It’s about creating stability. It’s about reducing stress. It’s about helping business owners make wise decisions and feel confident moving forward.

I want my clients to feel encouraged, supported, and cared for — not like just another account.

Because when small businesses thrive, families are supported, ministries grow, communities are served, and lives are impacted.
