That’s where a financial trainer comes in. Just like a personal trainer, therapist, or coach, a financial trainer helps you identify areas for growth, make a plan to achieve those goals, and help keep you on the path to success.
The Financial Gym is a program comprised of online and in-person financial trainers who take a fitness-inspired approach to coach clients toward meeting their financial goals. It was founded by Shannon McLay in 2013.
This program covers many of the same topics included in financial advisor and CFP (certified financial planner) programs but also emphasizes other topics such as budgeting and behavioral finance.
The Financial Gym program was founded to offer financial coaching services to everyday people looking to improve their finances and reach their money goals.
