Gillian's Story
Financial Coaching Client
When I first started Financial Coaching, I was in a desperate situation and had little hope of crawling my way out of it. With the help of Julia, I was able to put together a plan. We looked at my budget, found expenses I could cut down on and determined I also needed to increase my income. With the hope and determination Julia helped me find, I was able to get a job and apply for subsidy programs. I still have a ways to go but my future is looking brighter every day.
Earn and Learn and Financial Coaching Client
I am a single mom with no support or mentors in my life. The coaching has helped me with difficulties such as managing credit card expenses and closing down a mastercard which I didn't know how to do on my own. My coach fills up the empty spaces in my life.
