Where Financial Strategy Meets Creativity, Vision, And Business Growth

Interior design businesses and real estate professionals operate in a world where creativity, complexity, and logistics all converge.

You’re managing vendors, clients, timelines, purchasing, installation, and creative vision—all while trying to keep your margins intact and your cash flow steady.

This industry demands a different level of financial clarity and leadership.

That’s where I come in.

For nearly a decade, I’ve served as a Fractional CFO for design-driven businesses, helping them structure their pricing, improve productivity, forecast revenue, build profitability, and make strategic decisions that support long-term growth.

What I offer you isn’t generic financial support. It’s industry-specific guidance for businesses built around creativity, vision, and intentional design.

What We Can Accomplish Together

When your financial world becomes clear and structured, everything in your business shifts: your confidence, your creative capacity, the quality of your client experience, and the ease with which you make decisions.

My role is to help you bring intention, clarity, and long-term strategy to a business that has often grown faster than its financial foundation.

We start by understanding the full ecosystem of your studio or real estate enterprise: pricing, margins, team capacity, productivity, cash flow, client dynamics, and the emotional patterns that influence how you value your work.

From there, we build a financial structure that supports both your creativity and your long-term growth.

Here’s how that transformation unfolds:

✔ Pricing & Margin Protection

Together, we clarify your design fees, procurement model, markups, and boundaries so every project supports your profitability.

✔ Financial Systems That Actually Fit Your Business

Your business deserves systems that feel intuitive and aligned with the natural rhythm of your work. We establish simple and effective financial tools, software, and reporting processes that give you clarity at a glance.

✔ Strategic Planning for Sustainable Growth

We explore your next level with intention: expanding your team, evolving your business model, increasing your project size, refining your services, or adding new revenue streams. You gain a long-term strategy that aligns with your values, energy, and lifestyle.

✔ Money Psychology for Creative Leaders

We gently untangle subconscious patterns and strengthen the mindset that supports leadership, confidence, and long-term wealth-building.

Discover the Growth Design Businesses Are Experiencing

 

Game changer. Visionary. Joetta’s guidance is unlike any other financial resource I've ever found.

After just a few short months of working with her my awareness of not only my personal finances but my business finances grew exponentially.

These are the lessons we should all be learning and teaching our children (and employees).

By far one the top coaches I've ever worked with in terms of approach and results.

These are the rare game-changing movements you'll be making when you choose to work with Joetta.

  — JOE PERG, ENTREPRENEUR, MENTOR, SPEAKER, WWW.JOEPERG.COM

 

I cannot say enough good things about Joetta, but I’ll try!

Joetta’s combination of spiritual mentorship and financial expertise have helped us immensely.  Under her guidance and inspiration (with some help from the Divine Consciousness!), our business has grown tremendously in the last three years. My income has increased 250%, and our net profit margin went from 4.8% to 22%.

More significant than just the growth in revenue and scale, is the increase in stability and sanity as a result of having Joetta on our ‘team’. 

Prior to working with Joetta, I had little practical knowledge of budgets and financial systems.  I was always reluctant to talk to financial professionals, and worried that they would judge me.  Joetta has changed this for me, and the result is that I am a more confident business person.

Joetta is an integral part of our success because building a business is not for the faint of heart! Even more so when your partner in business is your partner in life. 

We know it makes a difference that we are coachable and courageous, so we can fully go into our growth edges.  It's really important to us that everyone on our team pushes for higher levels of success together.

Joetta has been a part of that team and for years she has helped us navigate business and personal growth along with celebrating the accomplishments.

She guides our financial education and business building processes and we get to learn by sometimes "failing forward". It has been our pleasure to work with her and we recommend Joetta to those who seek financial balance in life while building a thriving business.

I began working with The Priestess of Finance, Joetta Marie Johnson, at a pivotal moment as I prepared to open a new design office in Boston.

Her unique Money Wisdom System which blends money psychology, money management, and money growth, became not only a framework, but a transformational way of operating my business from the inside out.

From the first sessions, I felt invited into a holistic conversation about money, one that honored ambition without neglecting the emotional undercurrents that often block true expansion.

Through her guidance, I saw my revenue increase markedly, not through pressure or pushing harder, but by reshaping my money mindset.

Joetta’s approach, melding practical financial tools like budgeting and forecasting with subconscious work like hypnosis and visualization, helped me overcome old patterns and step confidently into new income territory.

The result: a thriving design firm with the financial clarity to justify presence in a new market, backed by real strategy and an empowered sense of worth.

This shift in mindset spilled over into my expansion planning. I leaned into visualization and meditation practices Joetta offered, practices that grounded me during big decisions like hiring, securing a space in Boston, and managing cash flow across two offices.

Imagining success became not a side activity but a structural tool, something Joetta calls “Money Magic,” that it helped me build systems that aligned with my vision, not just my numbers.

What’s more, Joetta’s emphasis on intentional financial vision resonated deeply when I reflected on the legacy of Georgia Zikas Design, my firm known for timeless, personality-driven interiors across Boston, New York, and Connecticut, guided by strong client relationships and thoughtful leadership.

Pairing that design sensibility with Joetta’s financial foresight allowed me to steward my business not just as an aesthetic endeavor, but as a thriving, values-aligned enterprise.

Building something beautiful is one thing; building something that endures, funds joy, and scales with integrity is another—and that deeper synergy is entirely thanks to The Priestess of Finance.
