Why you need a money coach

Excited to start your financial journey? Here’s why you need a money coach.

Ang itsura namin haha. Parang nanalo sa Sweep-isteks . O di kaya sa pageant.

Imagine I have never met them in person, but together we are changing lives. This is the story of Dayang Caracol Alcuizar. I won’t tell you all the details (hahaha) baka batukan niya ako. But she was one of the super supportive people who would often watch my streams on Kumu. She is an angel who left her only child in the Philippines to take care of another sweet baby in Kuwait. She doesn’t know it but I am so moved when I see her little charge come up to her with full trust and love. Makikita mo talaga kapag malambing ang isang tao, the people they take care of blossom in confidence.

Then one day Transformare Coach Aries Laciste Baloran told me he wanted to help Dayang. So we set up a twice-a-month meeting with her and Transformare Coach Eleonor Pangan to start the financial planning process. When she was deciding whether to come home for good or stay with her employer, we showed her the numbers. Di pwedeng marupok tayo, day hihi. Kelangan kung uuwi ka, may baon para hindi nakanganga. Later on, she said sobrang namula siya sa pressure hahaha. Ganyan kami, karinyo brutal. But she did what she had to, because she knew we were doing it with love.

Finally, we met with her when she got here and in this meeting, she ended up having her first life insurance so that her baby is sure to go to college if something happens to her and a medical insurance to make sure she doesn’t fall into debt if something happens and she gets hospitalized. Ayun, kaya kami feeling nanalo sa Sweep-isteks! Tuloy pa ang pag-iipon for emergency funds so wala muna parteh parteh na malalaki. Small intimate gathers lang ano darling?

Financial coaching talaga ang kailangan. After a webinar, maraming excited magbago. But things get forgotten in the busyness of life after a couple of days. If you have a coach and a mentor, who has the heart to put you at the center, not their commission, then you will do well. At kailangan, gamay ang buong proseso, hindi iisang produkto lang. Wait, mare, isa pa: pinaka-importante: matino at mahusay!

PS. Wala akong commission dito hahaha. #SalveSays
