08 | How Jackie Turned Her Dreams into Actions With a Financial Coach

“I know what I want, but I don’t know how to get there.” When I first met Jackie, this was her story. She had dreams of investing in real estate and saving for her family’s future, but her scarcity mindset and emotional spending habits kept her from making progress on her goals. But through our work together as her financial coach, Jackie has paid off $10k in debt, negotiated a raise, and fully adopted an abundance mindset.
