Get to Know Me

Hi, I'm Deana, the systems thinker behind Peace of Mind by Design.

Credentials: systems thinker, household CFO, Marriott School of Business, and former PWC and EY accountant

My husband and I paid off a brand-new house in 3.5 years and cleared every debt we had, $359,242 total, by the time we were 30. Not because we're extraordinary. Because we treated our household like a system worth designing.

It took nearly a decade of different experiences to bring mindset and systems together into what Peace of Mind by Design offers today: something simplified and easy to actually implement. I made mistakes, adjusted the plan, and researched every way I could find to manage money and get ahead, testing frameworks from people who've made a name for themselves in the financial space until I found what actually worked, then customized it until it produced real results.

Peace of Mind by Design is that system, handed to you. The same framework, the same mindset shifts, and a community of people walking the same path, whether you're just starting to get honest about your numbers or ready to build a real plan.

Differentiators

What makes Peace of Mind by Design different

Money advice is everywhere. Here's what makes this different.

01. Built from a system that was lived before it was taught.

My husband and I paid off our house in 3.5 years. Completely debt-free by 30. $359,242 eliminated in six years. It didn't start as a method. It started as the decision to become financially free, one decision at a time. Looking back at what actually worked, I mapped it into six clear steps: the Peace of Mind Method, the framework at the heart of Peace of Mind by Design.

02. Systems thinking, not spreadsheet gymnastics.

Most money advice hands you another tracker and calls it a strategy. Peace of Mind by Design treats your household the way an engineer treats a system worth protecting: one honest picture, one plan, one lever at a time. The tools are simple on purpose.

03. Identity change, not just behavior change.

Most programs teach you to go through the motions. Peace of Mind by Design does the deeper work: reshaping how you think about money, wealth, and what financial freedom actually means for you. Once your identity shifts, the day-to-day decisions get easier. You stop relying on willpower to stick to a budget and start making choices that quietly compound in your favor.
