Foundations to Freedom
was born out of a deeply personal need for financial literacy—and a desire to share that knowledge with others who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure where to start.
Created by Mikhayla, a mom of two who built her first business from her kitchen table during maternity leave, this platform is a blend of lived experience and practical education. From learning bookkeeping to help make ends meet, to becoming certified, launching a thriving business, and educating others across Canada—this journey has been about reclaiming power through knowledge.
Foundations to Freedom is more than just a bookkeeping course (though you can launch your bookkeeping business here in just 30 days). It's a full ecosystem designed to help people—especially women and mothers—build strong financial foundations so they can experience true freedom.
Whether you're here out of curiosity or desperation—whether you're trying to figure out how to make ends meet, build a business, or just understand your money better—you’ve landed in the right place.
At Foundations to Freedom, we don’t just teach concepts—we give you roadmaps. Step-by-step guides, bite-sized mini courses, empowering challenges, and real-life tools you can apply today. You’ll find resources that help you:
Take control of your money (even if you feel behind)
Start a flexible business from home
Make smarter decisions about debt, saving, and investing
Create a lifestyle that feels aligned—not exhausting
Explore. Binge. Get inspired. Then take action.
Because your future doesn’t have to look like your past—and we’re here to show you how to build the bridge between where you are and where you want to be.

I’m Mikhayla, the founder of Foundations to Freedom—a platform built to empower women with the skills, knowledge, and confidence to create financial peace in their homes and lives.
I’m a mom of two boys who started this journey during maternity leave. I dove into bookkeeping as a way to support my family while staying present in these precious early years. I didn’t have a roadmap, but I had a reason—and that was enough to start.
Since then, I’ve poured myself into learning everything I could—through books, webinars, podcasts, and continued education in real estate, life insurance, and personal finance. I became a Certified Professional Bookkeeper, started teaching both locally and virtually across Canada, and slowly built Foundations to Freedom into something I hope will change lives.
