Jumpstart your business with financial coach training
We are here to demystify financial coaching and decrease the amount of time it takes to get your business off the ground or to the next level. We give you an honest, no-holds-bar look into how we run our financial coaching business and provide all of the materials and scripts we have created since starting our business more than a decade ago. You’re building with a blueprint, not trying to draw up the plans. We’ve been at this for a while and know what it takes to become a success coach. Let us show you how.

A Financial Coaching Program That Covers It All
After more than a decade of running our financial coaching business and years of running this course, we have identified the five core concepts that every financial coach needs to be a successful coach. The Academy has assigned each of these concepts a module, and within each module is a series of lessons, videos, handouts, materials and actions to help you work through mastering this concept.

• Gain Financial Knowledge
  We teach you all of the same financial concepts we teach our own clients. You will build upon the natural skills you already have with money and get more financial exercises to work through with your clients.
• Expand Your Coaching Skills
  It’s one thing to teach a client a financial concept. It’s a whole other skillset to coach them to change their behavior. We teach you how to be an effective coach who gets better and quicker results from your clients.
• Build Business Acumen as a CEO
  Build the systems and master the tech needed to run a business that’s as close to auto pilot that it can be. And no, you don’t need to spend hundreds of dollars every month on fancy software to do it.
