Building Financial Confidence Through Real Understanding

We started orixalavene because too many bright people felt intimidated by financial concepts that should actually empower them. What began as informal mentoring sessions has grown into comprehensive education that makes finance accessible and entrepreneurship achievable.

Our approach isn't about quick fixes or miracle formulas. We focus on building genuine understanding that creates lasting confidence in financial decision-making.

Our Journey So Far

Every meaningful organization has moments that define its character. These milestones shaped who we became and guide where we're heading.

2019

The Beginning

Started with small workshops for local business owners who felt overwhelmed by financial planning. We discovered that most people aren't lacking intelligence – they're missing clear explanations and practical frameworks they can actually use.

2021

Expanding Our Reach

Developed our signature methodology combining financial literacy with entrepreneurial thinking. We realized that understanding money and understanding business opportunity go hand in hand – you can't really master one without the other.

2023

Proven Results

Hundreds of participants have transformed their relationship with money and business. We've seen accountants launch side ventures, retail workers become confident investors, and retirees create new income streams through informed decision-making.

2025

Looking Forward

Now we're developing advanced programs that bridge the gap between personal financial confidence and professional entrepreneurial skills. The goal remains the same: making complex concepts genuinely accessible to real people.

The People Behind orixalavene

We're educators first, with real business experience and a genuine commitment to helping others build financial confidence. No fancy titles or corporate mystique – just experienced professionals who enjoy teaching.

Sienna Whittaker

Declan Thornfield

Head of Education

Former small business owner who learned financial management the hard way. Now specializes in translating complex financial concepts into clear, actionable strategies. Believes that anyone can master money management with the right guidance.

What Drives Our Work

Financial literacy shouldn't be a luxury or a mystery. When people understand how money actually works – not just the theory, but the practical day-to-day reality – they make better decisions for themselves and their families.

We've seen too many intelligent people avoid important financial decisions simply because they felt intimidated by jargon or overwhelmed by options. Our programs cut through that confusion with clear frameworks and practical tools.

The entrepreneurial mindset isn't about starting the next unicorn company. It's about seeing opportunities, managing risk intelligently, and building systems that create value over time.

"We measure success not by how impressed people are with our expertise, but by how confident they become in their own financial decision-making abilities."

Our next comprehensive program begins in September 2025. Whether you're looking to strengthen your personal financial foundation or explore entrepreneurial opportunities, we'd be happy to discuss how our approach might work for you.
