I went into coaching one on one with Jeff. Um knowing that I wanted help with um with budgeting with financial goal setting and with um sort of dealing with the major life transition um of becoming a single parent and I came away with so much more. Um I think the confidence that I got from um from learning those things, but then also of um kind of finding um uh finding my voice, if you will finding kind of a way to navigate um a financial landscape that ties it together um with the goals and the dreams that I have um was um was really tremendous and in some ways unexpected, I think um that the um the, the care and the compassion that Jeff brings to his coaching is really clear and his ability to connect with his um uh connect his expertise sort of with what my needs were um uh was just really a gift. Um So I would highly recommend uh Jeff as a coach. Um And also um the confidence that I think um uh comes with having one on one coaching is a gift that I know I will um benefit from tremendously, um, for many years to come.

And so it was important for us to find a coach who was not only knowledgeable, but who made me feel comfortable within the first uh few minutes of our Zoom consultation with Jeff, he had created an atmosphere of friendliness that was relaxed and that made me feel like I could open up and be vulnerable and be transparent about why I get scared to look at my finances or why I don't want to change my money habits.

I had tremendous anxiety when my husband suggested we find a financial coach for me, I feel very vulnerable when discussing money. And so it was important for us to find a coach who was not only knowledgeable, but who made me feel comfortable within the first uh few minutes of our Zoom consultation with Jeff, he had created an atmosphere of friendliness that was relaxed and that made me feel like I could open up and be vulnerable and be transparent about why I get scared to look at my finances or why I don't want to change my money habits. Um And I think, I think that's what sets him apart from other finance coaches out there. Is he cares about your long term success? He doesn't just want to know about your money habits. He wants to understand how you think about money because he gets that for most of us, money is a visceral thing. It makes us feel emotional and we can have blockages that prevents us from long term success with our finances. He takes you from maybe feeling shame or fear about finances to being excited and empowered with your money. He's also very passionate about what he's teaching. Not only is he knowledgeable, but he's excited about it. And that is infectious and overall, a coach that cares who's knowledgeable and who's rooting for you beyond your co coaching sessions with you. That, that is worth a lot.

And what bringing Jeff in what happened was he's a, he's very reassuring and he's very calming and having that third party change the dynamic of the conversation so that my spouse and I could on both sides communicate better of, oh, this is what we want to do and this is how we want to do it.

So, something that I was worried about in being coached in finance is like, I'm a full grown man. I've done just fine in life. But my spouse and I, we were stuck in the same conversations we had used mint. We'd used like a Google doc. We had done a few things um to try to take a hold of our finances and just take a hold, meaning just make sure that the dollars were going towards the things that we want to go to. So we could have the fun things that we wanted to have and maybe not eat out so much that we can do the go on the trip that we wanted to. All those things. My wife and I, we were stuck in the same conversation cycle. And what bringing Jeff in what happened was he's a, he's very reassuring and he's very calming and having that third party change the dynamic of the conversation so that my spouse and I could on both sides communicate better of, oh, this is what we want to do and this is how we want to do it. And that was just huge, a very calming presence every time that we met to answer questions and help us think about it differently so that we could just have better conversation. It sounds like it was like a, like we were going through therapy, which is funny. It, that's not the case, but it was therapy for money just helping us communicate differently.

Uh So the value of working with a coach, uh specifically Jeff, in this case, on my road to learning NAB and the financial tools they're in um was, you know, it meant the difference between me getting a system down that could change the direction of my financial future.

Uh So the value of working with a coach, uh specifically Jeff, in this case, on my road to learning NAB and the financial tools they're in um was, you know, it meant the difference between me getting a system down that could change the direction of my financial future. Uh quite literally um or not because if you try to do something uh on your own, which I did, I put in a good, you know, solid 23 weeks watching the videos um doing stuff piece by piece, but so many questions came up and with so much going on in life, uh I can't tell you and it was, you know, it wasn't that it was um it was a financial stretch for me, but I knew in the end I would be so much better equipped to manage my financial future, which what it was, what it was all about. Um And I feel like working with Jeff was a worthwhile investment because it was an investment in my future. What is more valuable than your future and specifically what is more valuable than learning how to manage your money. So it was a itch that needed to be scratched it. Um I was just ready. I was just ready and he um provided that clarity, that lack of stress and that lack of my personal history, right. His, his frustrations were my frustrations. And if he had those at some point, he had worked them out, you know, he had learned the system. So he had gone before and really, um you know, learned the program that he was teaching. And so it wasn't a nerve wracking experience. He was very comfortable, he was very knowledgeable, he was calm and grounded. Um And I need that, I don't want to feel judged for getting frustrated by technology and filling digital envelopes and um ready to assign and uh replicate uh charges. I mean, there's just so many little things and in piece by piece, they seem sort of small. But like if you accumulate all that minutia and you have so many question marks in your head, you just, it's time easy, you just don't go forward. So, so he really provided the bridge um uh to my future empire. Um But really uh his, his uh knowledgeable, grounded, calm, nonjudgmental approach uh was really just the perfect fit uh for me.
