My husband and I would highly recommend choosing Christi as a financial coach for many reasons. For a topic that is not easy for most to discuss, she made it feel so comfortable and safe to approach because of her calming yet fun demeanor and excellent communication throughout the process. She was very concise and clear as she walked us through our budget, which really helped us see areas we were doing well, along with areas we could improve. We really valued that Christi explained different approaches and provided resources for topics such as retirement, buying a home, and debt. She asked me and my husband the right questions to make us think about our personal barriers to managing our finances and helped us reframe some of our perspectives with less fear and more empowerment. We each presented with our areas of anxiety over finances and came out with a more optimistic outlook, seeing money as a tool and the conversations surrounding it as a point of connection, thanks to Christi!

After my second time drowning myself in high-interest debt, I knew it was time to swallow my pride and get the help I VERY much needed. Once I reached out to Christi for guidance I knew right then that I had made the best financial decision of my life. Naturally, I felt overwhelmed approaching such a large feat, but Christi offered constant clarity and peace in the unknown. Having a coach stand by your side to help evaluate your habits, assist in allocating your expenses, creating budget sheets and SO much more has been and will continue to be life-changing. Not only has Christi helped me evaluate my spending on a superficial level, she also asks questions to help me reflect more on myself to better understand where my spending urges come from on a more deeper level. This allows us to incorporate healthy habits that I can use in my every day life. We all know that changing habits is difficult, but with Christi's attention to detail and encouragement along the way, you will never be alone! Our meetings have been undoubtedly eye opening and she remains to be a consistent support system week in and week out. She has been with me on my low days and celebrates my wins with me, big or small. Also, having a faith-based approach is so important to me especially in today's world. The opportunity to open and close our meetings in prayer is truly touching and I always leave our meetings feeling refreshed and ready to tackle our next list of objectives for that week. I can tell Christi truly has a gift for intersecting the world of finances and faith. Christi has helped me lay a solid, faithful financial foundation with realistic goals that will constantly evolve. She has provided opportunities that will help me excel in my life moving forward long after our meetings come to an end. If you are considering working with Christi, I strongly recommend you to stop holding out on yourself and take that leap, you won't regret it!

"Before coaching, I didn’t really think about where my money should go beyond just spending and saving what was left. Christi helped me learn how to give every dollar a ‘home’—like setting aside money each month for guilt-free spending or saving for my future. I never really thought about retirement before, but now I’m starting to plan for it. The most helpful thing for me was creating a spreadsheet to track what’s coming in and going out. It gave me a clear picture of where my money is going and how I can use it better. Coaching has made me feel more encouraged and hopeful about managing my money—not just now, but for the future too."*
