Why do you need a money coach? I asked myself this same question as my husband and I sat down to pencil our first budget several years ago. We had no idea where our money was going, what our goals were, and were completely overwhelmed. As we began our journey of tackling our mountain of debt it seemed insurmountable. It was challenging in so many ways that I hadn’t realized.

How many coaches do you think a professional athlete has? He or she probably has more coaches than one can imagine. Even if the athlete is an expert in their sport, a coach in every area is necessary to reach new heights, new skill levels, and new degrees of mastery. The athlete must have coaches including mindset, mental health, nutrition, strength, speed, and sport-specific coaches. That’s a lot of coaches!


After our experience of paying off $160,000 of debt in 20 months, I realized the value of coaching. After working with a coach, we were able to see things we weren’t able to before. We were able to go further, faster. So much of money management is emotional and has absolutely nothing to do with mathematics. Thus, enter in the value of coaching. If you could have a life-changing coaching experience to change your mindset and your behavior, would you? If you could work with a coach who completely changes the trajectory of your life and helps you to build a legacy of wealth and generosity, would you? As you can see, working with a money coach costs pennies on the dollar compared to the life-changing value. The value of working with a money coach truly cannot be measured.


A money coach is an absolute must to have on your team to ensure your success. If you are serious about building your wealth, your legacy, and making your future better than your present, work with a money coach. Trust me, your only regret will be not starting sooner. Sign up for a free consultation, I’d love to help you! Just so happens I’ve got a group coaching program running this fall called Money Masterminds. I will help you hone your budgeting, saving, and investing skills. You will get all the benefits of working with a money coach without the price point of individualized coaching. Let’s do this!
