Our Journey Through Time
From a small idea in 2018 to becoming Canada's trusted partner in personal finance education, our story is one of growth, dedication, and helping thousands achieve financial confidence.
The Beginning
stellariquentos started with a simple belief: everyone deserves access to quality financial education. Sarah Chen, our founder, noticed how many Canadians struggled with basic money management despite having good incomes. Working from her kitchen table in Kitchener, she began creating educational content that actually made sense to real people.
"I remember our first workshop had just 8 people. Now we've helped over 15,000 Canadians take control of their finances." - Sarah Chen
Growing Impact
The pandemic actually accelerated our mission. As Canadians faced unprecedented financial uncertainty, our online programs became a lifeline. We expanded from basic budgeting to comprehensive financial planning, retirement strategies, and investment education. This year marked our transition from a local workshop provider to a nationally recognized platform.
Over 5,000 students completed our programs during 2021 alone, with 89% reporting significant improvements in their financial confidence.
Today & Tomorrow
Today, stellariquentos serves as Canada's comprehensive financial education platform. We've helped thousands of Canadians build emergency funds, plan for retirement, and make informed investment decisions. Our team of certified financial educators continues to develop practical, actionable content that fits busy Canadian lifestyles.
Looking ahead, we're launching advanced courses in 2025 covering tax optimization, estate planning, and small business finance to serve our growing community.
