“Simple can be harder than complex: You have to work hard to get your thinking clean to make it simple. But it’s worth it in the end because once you get there, you can move mountains.” — Steve Jobs
We’re not perfect, but we strive to be as disciplined and responsible as possible by living within our means; it’s simple – we focus on the things we need in our pursuit of happiness, not the things we want in the relentless chase for status.
Just a few things about us:
- We have no credit card debt (but we do USE credit cards).
- We have no student loan debt.
- We have no other miscellaneous debt.
The best part, you can too if you just follow some simple strategies!
Living a balanced life requires saying “no” more than saying “yes”. This applies to finance and fitness. It is not about deprivation, it’s about self-control.

Whitney spent her childhood helping on the family farm and learned the value of hard work early on as she basically worked from the time she could walk. She also learned the ever-important lesson of the value of the dollar from her grandparents that experienced the Great Depression firsthand.
She graduated from the University of North Georgia and majored in finance. She majored in finance because she ultimately wanted to help guide people’s financial decisions. She’s always known that she wanted to own her own business – she was brought up in a family of entrepreneurs…it’s in her blood! She left her corporate job in May 2013 to follow her passion for fitness and became a health coach and personal trainer and now operates He and She Eat Clean on a full-time basis.
