What is financial coaching?
Financial Coaching is a mixture of financial education, coaching, accountability, cheer-leading, and future goal setting. We discuss a new topic each session, exploring how each concept will support your life and how you feel about each concept that is taught. Let me explain.
If we are talking about budgeting as an example, we will discuss how you feel about a budget.
- Does it feel restrictive?
- Do you think that you have to track every penny you spend?
- Do you feel like someone is going to judge you for spending your own money?
- Do you already have a budget – but it is not working – so you feel like a budget will never work for you?
These are some of the fears that, if they resonate with you, we can explore and resolve.
Another fear I see frequently is the fear of being judged. I see asking for help as a strength not a weakness, it can be hard to be vulnerable enough to ask for help, and yet I believe it is one of the most courageous things to do!
There are several ways to budget. During a coaching call we explore what you gain from each type of budgeting, what is the right concept for you, how does that type of budgeting align with your personality and lifestyle. How will it help you achieve your goals?
Some people are very technically savvy, others prefer a more traditional style, and yet others might want a blend. Whatever you decide is the decision is based on what is best for you.
In short, coaching is not about me telling you what to do, but rather giving you the space, time and support you need to find the right fit for you.
I support individuals and small business owners as they step into the path of financial security. If you are ready to step through the fear, preconceived ideas around money, and live your life pursuing and obtaining your goals, then schedule your free Discovery Call today.
