What the FAQ?
What is Bolder? Who is Bolder for?
We are a team of personal coaches that help people money intentionally, so they can live that way too. We work with people to overcome the emotional roadblocks that come with money, set financial goals, and achieve them.
If you've been wanting to do something differently with your money, or with your life (that requires money), but haven't been able to make that change on your own, money coaching could be the thing that changes yoru life.
Most of our members come to us for this reason: they know they want to act and feel differently with money, and have not been able to do it on their own.
Our coaches help them create a clear action plan to make the changes they want, then offer guidance, support, and accountability every step of the way.
What is a Money Coach? What is Money Coaching?
Our coaches are certified experts trained in both the behavioral and personal finance side of money.
They’ll help you understand your relationship with money, organize your financial life, help you identify and build your life goals, and establish and uphold personalized habits and behaviors around money.
We require our coaches to have completed at least one external training program, including rigorous financial coach trainings from the Association for Financial Counselling & Planning Education® (AFCPE®), the Money Coaching Institute, or the Financial Coach Academy.
Money coaching is about helping you achieve your financial and life goals, by addressing both the numerical side of personal finance (i.e. how much you should save, what to prioritize, how to budget), and the behavioral side of money (i.e. why you might struggle to save, how to build healthy habits around money, or how to overcome the stress around financial decisions).
Coaching is great for anyone who needs help navigating the emotional and confusing rollercoaster that is money.
How is a Money Coach different from a Financial Advisor?
Financial Advisors are more like money managers. They help you understand your investment options and help you pick the right investments for your portfolio. They generally take on clients with a minimum amount of wealth, meet you a few times a year, and often have complex fee structures.
Unlike a financial advisor, our Money Coaches don’t handle your money, and won't provide investment recommendations. They also aren't going to sell you on tools or financial products. Rather, they help you face the emotional and behavioral challenges you may face, while pursuing your life and financial goals. They’ll be with you as often as you need to provide insight, knowledge, support, encouragement, accountability, and actionable tools to help you make informed decisions.
