Built on Real Experience, Not Empty Promises
Understanding money shouldn't feel complicated or intimidating.
We started peloraqiven in 2019 after watching too many people struggle with basic financial decisions. Not because they weren't smart enough, but because nobody explained things in plain language that made sense.
How We Got Here
From a small workshop in Randwick to helping thousands understand their finances
Started Small
Held our first savings workshop in Randwick with 12 attendees. Everyone said they'd been looking for straightforward financial guidance.
Expanded Content
Launched online resources after requests from people who couldn't make in-person sessions. Created materials that work for different learning styles.
Community Grew
Built a learning community where people share real experiences and support each other's financial journeys.
Looking Ahead
Planning new programs for autumn 2025 focused on practical strategies that work in real Australian households.
What Guides Our Work
These aren't corporate buzzwords. They're principles we actually follow when creating content and working with people.
Clear Language
We skip the jargon. Financial concepts are complex enough without wrapping them in confusing terminology that makes people feel excluded.
Practical Focus
Theory matters, but only when it helps with real decisions. We teach strategies you can actually use in your daily life.
Honest Approach
No magic formulas or overnight solutions. Building financial stability takes time, and we're upfront about that from the start.
Continuous Learning
Financial landscapes change. We update our content regularly based on current conditions and feedback from our community.
Local Context
Australian financial systems have their own quirks. We focus on strategies that work within our specific banking and tax environment.
Community Support
Learning happens better together. We create spaces where people can share experiences and learn from each other's journeys.
Meet the Team
Real people with actual experience in financial education and planning
Siobhan Donoghue
Financial Education Coordinator
Spent eight years working in community banking before joining us. She's the one who insists we explain everything like we're talking to a friend over coffee, because that's how real conversations about money should feel.
Lachlan Byrne
Content Development Lead
Comes from an adult education background and brings experience creating learning materials that work for different skill levels. He tests every piece of content with real people before we publish it.
How We Teach
Financial education works differently for everyone. Some people want structured courses, others prefer to explore topics at their own pace.
We've designed our programs to accommodate different learning preferences while maintaining clear progression paths.
