Coaching Q&A Series: Is Coaching Too Expensive? A Conversation About Finances and Investing


Listen Later

In this bonus episode of the Coaching Q&A Series, I’m addressing a big question: “Is coaching too expensive?” This mini-series is designed to clear up common misconceptions about coaching and share practical insights around the coaching process.

Today, I explore finances, risk assessment, and decision-making when it comes to making an investment—whether it’s coaching or something else. I share my personal journey from growing up in a low-income household with limited financial literacy to becoming confident in managing and investing my money.

If you’ve ever wondered whether coaching is “worth it,” this episode will give you a framework to make confident financial decisions that align with your goals, values, and risk tolerance.


Key Takeaways:

  • Assessing Risk: Learn how to evaluate if an investment will yield the results you want and how to step outside your comfort zone for growth.
  • Understanding Your Numbers: Why knowing your finances—expenses, savings, and goals—gives you clarity and reduces decision anxiety.
  • Creating a Financial Plan: The value of having Plan A, Plan B, and Plan C to support your choices and create financial security.
  • Making Decisions: How to research, ask direct questions, and give yourself a timeline to confidently make investment decisions.
  • Real Client Outcomes: Examples of clients who invested in coaching and transformed their careers, lives, and leadership, from landing remote roles to achieving double promotions.
