#181: Chapter 3 - The Practice of Financial Counseling

Josh and Emily discuss the third chapter of the Financial Counseling textbook, The Practice of Financial Counseling. Top takeaways: Relationship building is key. There’s a fine line between being supportive and being an enabler. Make sure you set boundaries around what you can and cannot do for clients. It’s important to leave space for clients to suggest their own ideas. The more time you spend listening, the better you’re able to help your clients.
