Finding the right money coach is about more than just credentials. It’s about finding someone who truly understands your goals and someone who can work with you as a team.
Start by researching their expertise and experience (a degree in finance, and financial planning experience is great!).
Then see if they have a track record that aligns with your needs. Have they got reviews online? Have you seen them present or spoken to other coaching clients?
Next, set up an initial chat (usually free) to get a feel for their coaching style, and assess if you connect on a personal level. Don’t hesitate to ask questions like ‘How will we best work together?’ and ‘What can I expect from this process?’
The right coach will be transparent, responsive, and ready to guide you confidently through your financial journey.
