About Jillian Knight:

Jillian is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and one of the first woman-identified Financial Therapists in the state of North Carolina. Jillian is an Enneagram 9×1 (The Peacemaker) and an HSP (Highly-Sensitive Person). She enjoys listening to podcasts, especially ones focused on personal finance, mental health, and parenting. A mom to one very spirited toddler. As a recovering people-pleaser and perfectionist, she learned early on to stay small and not ask for too much, especially when it came to money. Through years of her own therapy, she has learned to take up space and that it is okay and necessary to advocate for my own needs. She has learned that it is okay to want to make good money and that she is more than capable of understanding how to use money to achieve her goals. And she believes you are too! Jillian specializes in helping professional women and moms feel good about their relationship with money.
