About Maya

Hi. I’m Maya. I’m 29. I live in Austin. I read financial white papers for fun, and I host Trade-Up because I got tired of my friends getting wrecked by bad advice from 'money mindset' influencers with six Lambos and zero ethics.
I don’t manage money.
I don’t sell coaching.
I’m not for hire.
That means I don’t benefit from anything I say. I have no agenda. No commissions. Just real talk about money, investing, and adulting that doesn’t make you feel like trash.
I believe financial freedom isn’t about yachts or status. It’s about options.
So if you want to grow your money and shrink your BS filter, let’s trade up your game—together.
