Built on Real Experience
We started sentivon because we've been where you are. Financial challenges don't discriminate, and recovery isn't about quick fixes or miracle solutions.
How We Got Here
Back in 2019, I was sitting across from a business advisor who kept talking about "restructuring opportunities" while my café was three months behind on rent. The disconnect between textbook advice and real-world pressure was stark.
That experience taught me something important. Financial recovery isn't about perfect strategies. It's about understanding the human side of money problems and working with what's actually possible, not what looks good on paper.
We built sentivon around that principle. Every approach we take starts with where you are right now, not where financial theory says you should be.
People You'll Work With
Astrid Kellerman
Senior Financial Recovery Specialist
Astrid spent eight years in corporate restructuring before realizing that most recovery work happens outside boardrooms. She specializes in practical debt management and has helped over 200 Australian families navigate financial difficulties without losing their homes.
Brianna Thornfield
Strategic Finance Consultant
After her own small business bankruptcy in 2018, Brianna retrained in financial counseling. She brings a unique perspective to business recovery strategies and understands the emotional complexity of financial stress from personal experience.
Our Method
We don't start with spreadsheets or financial projections. We start with coffee and an honest conversation about what's keeping you up at night.
- First meeting focuses on immediate pressure points, not long-term planning
- We map out what's actually sustainable given your current situation
- Every strategy includes contingency plans for setbacks
- Regular check-ins to adjust approaches as circumstances change
- No judgment about past decisions or current financial state
Progress doesn't always look linear. Some weeks you'll make significant headway, others you'll just be treading water. Both are normal parts of financial recovery.
What Drives Us
Financial stress affects everything from sleep patterns to family relationships. We've seen too many people struggle alone with problems that have practical solutions. Our job is to help you find those solutions without adding more pressure to an already difficult situation.
We're not here to judge past financial decisions or promise unrealistic timelines for recovery. We're here to work with you on strategies that fit your actual life, not some idealized version of it.
