Financial Coaching
Have you seen the beloved holiday classic movie, “It’s A Wonderful Life”? When George, desperate to find the missing $8,000, asks his guardian angel Clarence to give him the money, Clarence tells George that they don’t use money in heaven. George replies, “Comes in pretty handy down here!” And yes, it does! Unfortunately, very few of us were given a Finances 101 class in high school or college because it simply did not exist. If you're like many people, you want to be financially stable and successful but saving and managing money has been a challenge.

What Financial Coaching Can Do Working together from where you are right now, we create a personalized coaching package that includes a comprehensive goal-setting starting-point session and subsequent weekly sessions. Each session includes an action plan for the coming week that provides direction, motivation and accountability. My role is to help you see your options, identify smart, long term targets and help you move closer to your goals week by week, gaining valuable insights along the way. It's more than simply coaching, it's learning life skills that will help you far beyond the coaching environment. Outcomes You Can Expect

"Coping with money issues, both practically and behaviorally, continues to be a major life struggle for millions of people and yet, there is very little help available. What has been learned through years of work and research is that almost everyone has unconscious patterns, beliefs and behaviors around money that prevent them from experiencing their true potential, personally and financially. Money Coaching assists individuals in identifying and moving beyond these limitations. This results in much greater personal satisfaction, increased abundance, and enhanced success in life and work." ~ Deborah Price, Founder of The Money Coaching Institute and author of The Core Process. |
Relationship Coaching
|
As part of daily living we form relationships with others. A romantic partner, parent, sibling, child, co-worker, roommate, best friend, neighbor… these relationships are there, every day, providing joy and fulfillment, but often at the same time, challenges, anxiety and stress. And just like finances, when did you ever get a Relationships 101 class in school? Many people build relationships through trial and error, starting from a base of what their parents model for them - even though that may have been long ago in a totally different environment. Relationships can be complicated and there are a number of issues that can make them painful. It's no wonder why this is an area fraught with stress, anxiety and unhappiness.

"The success of marriage comes not in finding the 'right' person, but in the ability of both partners to adjust to the real person they inevitably realize they married." ~ John Fischer "My best friend is the one who brings out the best in me." ~ Henry Ford "Life has taught us that love does not consist in gazing at each other but in looking outward together in the same direction." ~ Antoine De Saint-Exupery |

Tackling Money & Relationships Together
Many people in longer term relationships quickly realize that financial issues are at the heart of a significant amount of the stress they experience with their partner. For this reason I believe that addressing these two areas together is a smart approach to get to the core of an array of secondary issues.
"Dave brings a great energy to each coaching session and has a wealth of knowledge and experience, both personally and professionally, that have proven to be very valuable to me. For example, Dave has owned multiple vacation rentals and has showed me realistic investment options of how I can increase my wealth over time. I have appreciated each session with Dave and am now seeing him to help with my professional growth goals." ~Savannah
