We Guide Growing Families Toward Their Financial Goals.
Taking your goals from dreams to tangible milestones.
Over 75% of Americans
live paycheck to paycheck and not know where their money went.
So many of us have a fingers-crossed-with-one-eye-closed approach to achieving financial security. Duty Calls Financial (DCF) provides financial coaching to individuals who want support navigating their finances.
We guide growing families, who are spinning their wheels financially, to find focus, stress less about money, and make lasting changes that get them pressing toward their financial goals. We help you take your goals from mere dreams to tangible milestones. Our goal is to help you stress-less about money, know exactly where your money is going, and what your money is doing.

Meet Janell
Janell Pollard is a multi-tasking, God-fearing, wife, friend, and mother of two. As the spouse of a police officer, she is passionate about two things… supportive healthy marriages and financial freedom.
Janell has a background in social work and has the heart of a natural teacher-trainer. In her work both professionally and personally, she, like many people, observed the impact of our “paycheck to paycheck” society firsthand. It soon became clear that the financial elephant in the room could no longer be ignored, and educating and guiding others toward financial freedom became her mission. Janell uses financial coaching as a way to help everyday people achieve extraordinary financial freedom with proven step by step principles and partnership.
As a financial coach, she is described as “diligent, trust-worthy, frank, relatable, and passionate.” Janell and her husband Robert, have jointly paid off more than $33,000 in debt and consider themselves “millionaires in the making”, all because of some sound advice, some godly principles, and a unified front.
Meet Maya
Maya Talley is passionate about empowering others to develop habits that can be the bridge to a better future. She considers it her job to prepare you to be able to get out of debt, save more, invest, and build wealth. She is passionate about making an impact with others through education and creative problem solving. Promoting diversity and inclusion are always a priority. Maya loves learning, embracing different cultures and all things travel!
Her professional background is in sales, marketing, and brand development. She became a certified financial coach, in an effort to continue to build a legacy for her family and in the process began sharing this knowledge with others.
She volunteers in community organizations that help the advancement of people of color through wealth building and encouraging continual learning. She and her husband have paid off $60k in debt, and are now working to pay off a mortgage and build investments to live a life like no other and give like no other.

Frequently Asked Questions
Unlike financial advisors or financial planners, we do not sell insurance, investments, or other financial products. We coach on a flat-fee basis, which leaves us free to offer you practical and objective advice with only your best interest in mind.
No. Never. As financial coaches, we guide you through what financial decisions work best for you at the time. We do not ask for access to your finances at any point during the coaching process.
Working with a financial coach is something you should be proud of! It speaks to how serious you are about your financial responsibilities and goals. However, no one will hear a peep from us. When it comes to who we see as clients, our lips are sealed!
This is determined based on what you want to accomplish through financial coaching. Looking for a quick financial check-up to be sure you’re on the right track? You may only need one session. Need help with a plan to get out of debt, organize your finances with your spouse, or strategize on how to manage your small business finances? You may need 3-6 sessions. And, there are others who benefit most from our monthly money mentor program, lasting three months at a time.
DCF has flexible meeting options. We hold meetings at flexible times and mutually agreed upon locations, as well as via Zoom when needed. Once your appointment is booked, we will send you a list of locations to choose from.
Both Janell and Maya provide a personable and structured approach to coaching, and will address your situation with the same fundamentals. Most of our sessions are assigned based on our individual or joint availability. However, we love co-coaching when possible, so if you desire this, let us know in our Consultation Call!
