What is a financial coach?

A financial coach helps clients set and reach their financial goals using a coaching model relationship. As a financial coach, your responsibilities include assisting clients to assess their resources and expenses, make calculations regarding debt, and set budgets. You are also there to provide accountability. Your job is different than that of financial advisors or consultants. You help facilitate the client’s goals as they determine the best path for themselves. Your job is to help clients address concerns they have about money and financial security by coaching them into better choices and reaching their goals.
