Financial coaching for the ND brain
What It Is
My Money is a financial coaching application built for Neurodivergent and ADHD adults. It is live now at pastoral-budget-buddy-pro.base44.app.
The app was built by NeuroHomes founder Isha Snow, an autistic researcher and organizer, for the population she knows best. It uses manual data entry by design: no bank account connection required, ever. Manual entry is a deliberate choice that reduces privacy barriers, eliminates third-party data costs, and creates active engagement with your own financial numbers rather than passive monitoring. Plaid sync is optional.
Why most budgeting apps fail ND users
Most financial apps were built for people who already manage their finances reasonably well and want optimization. They assume you can remember to log transactions, respond to alerts, understand category systems, and maintain motivation across variable mood and attention states.
Those assumptions fail for Neurodivergent users.
For an ADHD adult, the problem isn’t a lack of desire to budget. The problem is that the executive function demands of most financial tools exceed available capacity on a bad brain day. My Money is designed for the bad brain day.

A note on what this is
My Money provides only financial coaching and educational tools. Nothing in the app constitutes investment advice, legal advice, or financial planning services. The app is not affiliated with any financial institution. User data is never sold. The full privacy policy is available in the app.
My Money and NeuroHomes
My Money is a product of NeuroHomes Communities, LLC — independently branded, with its own market identity. The connection is intentional: financial instability is one of the primary drivers of housing insecurity among Neurodivergent adults. A tool that helps ND people manage money is a direct upstream intervention on the problem that NeuroHomes exists to solve.
My Money users who want to learn more about NeuroHomes housing communities are welcome. The two organizations share a founder, a values framework, and a target population — but the app stands entirely on its own.
