Building Financial Confidence Through Real Experience
We started mytharionve in 2019 because too many aspiring entrepreneurs were getting stuck on the money side of things. Not the big picture stuff—the everyday financial decisions that either move a business forward or hold it back.
Why mytharionve Exists
Back in 2018, I was consulting with small business owners across Canberra and Sydney. The pattern became obvious pretty quickly—most failures weren't about bad ideas or lack of effort. People just didn't know how to read their numbers or make informed financial decisions under pressure.
One conversation stuck with me. A cafe owner had just closed down after two years. Great coffee, loyal customers, solid location. But she'd been losing money for months without realizing it because she couldn't interpret her cash flow statements. That's when I knew something had to change.
Financial literacy isn't about being good at math. It's about understanding what your numbers are telling you and making decisions based on reality instead of guesswork.
So we built mytharionve to teach the financial skills that actually matter when you're running a business. Not theory from textbooks, but the practical stuff you need when you're deciding whether to hire someone, take on debt, or change your pricing.
How We Teach Financial Skills
Real Business Scenarios
We use actual case studies from Australian businesses—the decisions they faced, the information they had, and what happened next. You learn to spot warning signs early and make adjustments before small problems become big ones.
Build Your Own Models
Every module includes hands-on projects where you create financial tools for your own business or idea. By the end, you'll have working spreadsheets and frameworks you can actually use, not just theoretical knowledge sitting in a folder somewhere.
Break Down Complex Topics
Financial jargon makes everything sound more complicated than it is. We explain concepts in plain English and show you exactly when and why you'd use them. Cash flow, burn rate, unit economics—these become tools you understand, not obstacles you avoid.
Ongoing Support Structure
Questions come up months after you finish a course. That's normal. We keep office hours and maintain active forums where you can get feedback on your specific situation, whether you're six weeks in or revisiting material a year later.
Who's Behind mytharionve
We're a small team focused on creating education that prepares people for the financial realities of entrepreneurship.
Elara Finnegan
Founder & Financial Education DirectorBefore starting mytharionve, I spent eight years as a financial analyst and business consultant. Worked with over 150 startups and small businesses, mostly helping them figure out why their finances weren't working the way they expected.
The repetitive nature of the problems people faced convinced me that education was more valuable than one-on-one consulting. Same issues kept appearing—misunderstanding margins, ignoring seasonal patterns, confusing revenue with profit.
Now I focus on building courses that address those gaps systematically. And honestly, it's more rewarding seeing hundreds of people gain confidence with their numbers than fixing problems one business at a time.
Practical Over Perfect
We teach methods that work in messy real-world conditions, not idealized scenarios that fall apart under pressure.
Transparency First
We're upfront about what you'll learn, how long it takes, and what you should realistically expect from the experience.
Accessible Knowledge
Financial literacy shouldn't require an economics degree. We explain concepts clearly and skip unnecessary complexity.
What We're Committed To
Clear Learning Outcomes
Before you start any course, you know exactly what skills you'll develop and how they apply to running a business. No vague promises about transformation—just specific capabilities you'll gain.
Updated Content
Tax laws change. Banking tools evolve. We review all course material quarterly and update anything that's become outdated or less relevant. You're learning current practices, not legacy information.
Realistic Expectations
Financial literacy is valuable, but it won't guarantee business success. We're honest about what education can and cannot do. Our job is to give you solid skills and good judgment, not magical solutions.
Accessible Instruction
Complex topics explained simply. No gatekeeping through jargon. If you can follow a conversation, you can learn this material. We design for clarity, not to impress other educators.
