Ilana Jankowitz, Money Therapist Zurich
Ilana grew up in South Africa, one of five children raised by a widowed mother who knew scarcity in its rawest form. She learned early that the real barriers to financial wellbeing aren't about budgets and spreadsheets — they live in our stories, beliefs and emotions around money.
Now based in Zurich, Ilana is a Certified Money Coach (CMC) and NLP Practitioner. She has coached 500+ high-achieving women through 1:1 sessions, group programs and signature courses — helping them feel safe with money, separate worth from net worth, and align their money with the life they are actually living.
A central part of this work is helping women learn about money and receiving — because so many high-achieving women find it easier to give than to accept. If you have ever wondered why high-achieving women block what they've earned, this is where that inquiry begins. This is the heart of what I call money therapy: working with the feelings, beliefs and stories beneath the numbers, not just the numbers themselves.
If this resonates, you can book your free 30-min call with Ilana to explore whether private money coaching is the right fit for you.

5 months agoI recently completed the Mindful Money Coaching course. The sessions were delivered with a lot of care and structure, and I felt supported throughout the process. I gained meaningful personal insights especially around family patterns that influence my relationship with money. I appreciated having a reflective space to slow down, look at things from a different angle, and reconnect with ideas I hadn’t thought about in a while. It has given me a lot to think about going forward. How I spend my money and why and the emotions attached to it all. Overall, it offered a gentle reminder of the deeper emotional layers behind financial habits and more, which was helpful for me.

5 months agoHaving followed Ilana off and on over a period of about 2 years, I finally decided that the time was right to sign up and start doing the work. I am not a business owner nor in huge financial difficulty, but I did feel naive and “uneducated” about money, in general. BUT what I got from this course, was healing, clarity and the confirmation that I truly am enough, exactly as I am. I healed wounds I didn’t know I carried with me which has given me the mental space to move forward and finally take “grown up” decisions. Ilana always felt like my number one fan. It felt like she was genuinely interested in every step I was taking, no matter how small or inconsequential it may have felt to me. You have to be willing to dig deep, be completely honest with yourself and Ilana, and the magic will happen from the work you put in.

a year agoBefore working with Ilana, I hadn’t really looked at my finances in detail following my divorce. Doing the work and going through the worksheets and exercises helped me discover why I relate to money the way I do. Supported by Ilana, I knew I could change some of my perceptions around money. I took a good look at my financial situation and could see where I was doing well and what I needed to look at and adjust. I really enjoyed discovering and learning about my money archetypes. Ilana also helped me with some business coaching and how I could continue to grow my business. I changed some behaviours around finances too which I have stuck with which I am very happy about! The fear around money and finances has gone and I have more fun with it now too. One of my mantras has always been “I will always have enough money to do all the things I want to do” and this has only been reinforced. Ilana is also great at connecting you with other businesses for collaboration and networking. The weekly calls are an added bonus and a lovely way to connect and set goals for the week. Thank you Ilana!
