And you know how many have asked me what certifications I have? Maybe two? I don’t have any financial coach certifications, and in this post I want to tell you why you don’t need them either, and why building trust is way more important than your certifications as a financial coach.

It’s a Financial Coaching Symposium Flash Sale

This is the week that time forgets. We’re in a haze. The week between Christmas and New Year’s is the land that time forgot. It’s where little is expected of us and even less gets done.  When I worked in corporate America, this was the time to do super important activities like clean out my office, take super long lunch breaks, and organize the folders on my computer.  But as an entrepreneur, I like to use this time to take stock, learn, and prepare for the coming year. And rest. Don’t get me wrong. I will be in my pjs [...]

Clients can change their mind. What's the best way to handle this? What can you say? How do you not let this letdown drag you [...]

Helping Your Client See Their New Financial Identity (Free Download)

How Having Your Client Reframe Their Financial Identity Can Lead To Greater Buy-In and More Progress When a client shows up to their coaching session and has completely fallen off track, this isn’t necessarily a sign that they aren’t committed. Oftentimes this is a sign of disconnect with their financial identity. It's a lapse between who they see themselves being today and who they want to be. Paying attention to money, planning ahead, and updating your budget to this type of client is just another “to do” they have to get through. Without a strong connection to the [...]
