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.

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 [...]
