You can be financially independent. When your basic needs are met, your mind will be opened to a new level of progress and impact that you won’t find when you are in financial bondage. Instead of thinking about if you’ll have enough for all your expenses next month you could be thinking about your potential, your passions, and how you can blend the two into creating something truly great to share with the world. I love seeing the light in peoples eyes as they realize they don’t have to just SURVIVE this life – they can THRIVE.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why should I consider a financial coach?
A financial coach is someone who’s been where you want to go. They’ve gotten unstuck from the challenges that you are likely facing now. They will ask you the right questions to help you discover where you are, where you want to me, and most importantly, guide you through how to get from where you are to your dream or goal.
When is hiring a financial coach a good idea?
In sports, everyone has a coach. Imagine the Kansas City Chiefs without Andy Reid. The Golden State Warriors without Steve Kerr. A coach is a necessity to help you as a player in the financial game of life to help you see the game differently, help you call plays for your current situation, call a timeout when things get a little too heated. They are there to guide you to be your best self.
Everyone needs coaching in their lives. Few people realize how much value a coach is to their financial journey until they look back on their lives and see the plateau and realize it could have been avoided if they had the right guidance. Those who do see the value in a coach find they can accelerate their path to finanical indpendencce because they save themselves years and years of what not to do.
You see, when you hire a coach you are paying him or her for their expertise, to help you avoid the mistakes that they and others have made, to save you time, money, and to accelerate your path to financial freedom.
The real question should be, why doesn’t everyone have a coach?
What's the difference between a financial coach and a financial advisor?
Think of a financial coach like a personal trainer – they first seek to understand where you are at, where you want to be, why you want to get there, and then they help you create a plan and implement the plan to help you achieve the results you desire.
A financial coach is just that, a coach, to help you understand your financial decisions, myths that you have about money, and they help debunk myths in your mindset about money. A financial coach is not licensed to provide specific investment product recommendations or to manage your money for you. They typically earn money from consulting time.
A financial advisor is licensed and regulated to provide specific product investment recommendations. Often they earn money by managing money, directing client money to various areas.

What does coaching look like?
While each coaching plan will be unique to your situation and desired outcome, we will follow the same general outline:
Step 1: Discovery Call (via zoom)
We learn about each other, learn where you are at, where you want to be, and outline the terms of the coaching engagement.
Step 2: Scheduled Meetings (via zoom)
Typically held every two weeks, includes training, planning, and accountability to guide you towards your financial goals.
Step 3: Homework Time Between Meetings (on your own)
Between each call you will have assignments that will increase your knowledge, give you opportunity to apply what you learn, and review your decisions.
Step 4: Review Meeting (via zoom)
At the end of the engagement we will go over an outline of your assignments, tasks, goals, accomplishments, mindset shifts, and set up a financial plan for you moving forward so that you can continue your momentum after our work together is complete.
What can I expect to gain from coaching?
In short – an accelerated path to financial freedom. Financial coaching is all about you. Like with any coach, there are two sides to the equation:
Effort x Knowledge = Result
You provide the effort. Your coach provides the knowledge. The outcome is largely dependent on your effort.
