Get to know your coach…
I spent my previous career as a telecoms engineer for over 11 years. Although I loved the technical side of my job, I missed engaging and helping others directly. Having seen how money related stress and confusion can impact our wellbeing, I felt financial coaching was a natural next step for me to be able to positively impact the lives of others.
For me personally, one of the best money decisions I ever made was to invest in share options with my company. This resulted in giving me the ability to take an 8 month sabbatical. Admittedly, at the time, I invested because everyone else was doing it, not because I was financially savvy! However, this motivated me to learn more about personal finance and now I love coaching others to make better money decisions and reach their goals.
