In this episode of Founders Future, with host Zach Young, we’re joined by Suzanne Reitz, an accredited financial counselor and the founder of Financial Organizing Solutions. Suzanne helps single mothers move out of financial survival mode and into long-term stability through compassionate, judgment-free coaching rooted in practical systems, accountability, and mindset shifts.
Suzanne shares her powerful journey from healthcare to entrepreneurship, shaped deeply by her own experience as a single mom and her volunteer work supporting homeless mothers. She explains why financial stress isn’t about being “bad with money,” but about systems that don’t align with real life—especially for single parents juggling careers, children, and emotional load. The conversation explores the deep shame often tied to finances, why high-touch relationship-based coaching matters, and how consistent accountability creates lasting behavior change. Suzanne also opens up about the challenges of scaling a deeply personal business, her plans for group coaching and digital education, and why she measures success not just by revenue—but by clarity, confidence, and reduced stress for the women she serves.
