Frequently Asked Questions:
Is coaching counseling or therapy?
- No, coaching is not counseling or therapy. Counseling and therapy focus on the past and work toward healing and recovery. Coaching focuses on the present and creates the future.
Are you a financial planner?
- No, I am a life coach whose focus is the basics - the fundamentals that are forgotten or never learned - budgeting, goal setting, prioritizing, and building good credit. I help my clients to build a strong financial foundation that will strengthen their money management skills.
How can you plan for the future if you do not know what you spend today?
Can you help me pay my bills?
-
No, I am not a credit counselor nor do I offer a debt
repayment program. I work with people who have the means
to pay their bills and want to gain control of their finances, build confidence,
and strengthen their financial position.
If you are having difficulty paying your bills, I suggest you visit www.nfcc.org (The National Foundation for Credit Counseling) to locate a credit counselor near you.

What does etiquette have to do with it?
- Etiquette has everything to do with it! Good or bad, etiquette sets you apart whether it be in a social or business setting. Knowing the rules of etiquette is absolutely vital for each person who wishes to advance personally and professionally. How we speak to people, including our body language and social graces, is crucial to how we are perceived. If you lack self-confidence in this area, I can help! If you don't know the rules of business etiquette, I can work with you.
Your technical skills may be top-notch, but are your manners? To quote John Rockefeller, " I will pay more for the ability to get along with people than for any other ability."
