Why We Start with Culture and Behavior
Most financial literacy programs teach what to do. At Cultivar, we start with why.





Why do we spend the way we do?
Why are some habits hard to break?
Why does money feel complicated—or out of reach?
The answer is rooted in our stories:
Family. Culture. Lived experience.
Cultivar builds financial confidence by starting there. With identity, behavior, and trust—not spreadsheets.
