The Ownership Game with Gary MontalvoBreak Free From Financial Stress: A New Approach to Money - Kelsa DickeyAre you in control of your money, or is your money controlling you?
Most of us weren’t taught how to manage money in a way that actually works for our lives.

This week, I’m sitting down with Kelsa Dickey, a financial coach and former financial advisor who’s spent years helping people rewrite...

Here’s the scoop: Clients don't buy what you do, they buy why you do it. This is why identifying your why is such a powerful and necessary step to take as a financial coach. Your "Why" is the core reason that drives you to do the work you do, and it is a powerful tool that can help you connect with your clients on a deeper level. When you kn...

They have the time to learn from their failures and reflect on them, gaining clarity and insights about both their mistakes and solutions.

The Stages of LearningThere’s a learning model that psychologists use called “The 4 Stages of Competency” which, put simply identifies the psychological state involved in progressing from incompetence to competence in a particular skill. I find these types of models fascinating - and if you do, too - Google has a ton of information that you can look up to learn more. Now, as financial coaches, understanding this model will help you set reasonable expectations with your clients as they change their financial behavior and learn new (and better!) financial strategies. Setting your clients...

In fact, there are a number of ways that you can support your clients (or yourself) to pay down your debts - and today, we’re going to examine five of those strategies. When I first started coaching clients whose goal was to pay off their debts, I would have ask the client to give me their financial details, which included balances, interest rates, payments, etc. Then I’d use the information they provided to create a...

When you’re coaching, your opinions of your client’s feelings on things like tithing, travel, and clothing do not matter. Your job is to help your client understand their money - which means having candid conversations about the importance of things that, you may think are frivolous, may be incredibly important to your client.

You’ve got a full (or nearly full) client roster. Financial Coaching is most likely your primary (or only) source of income. You’ve been putting systems and processes into place to make sure that pricing, naming, and marketing are consistent. You’re doing good…but you want to keep growing.

They focus their attention on things that feel productive (like trying to be everywhere on social media, taking yet another course (you know, just in case!), or jumping from task to task, but never really finishing anything.

And what you thought your journey would look like feels like a long time ago.

How to niche downNow that you’re a niching expert – you’re ready to put your head knowledge into real practice - this is where the “rubber meets the road” so to speak. As a financial coach, it’s important to niche - and not run away from the idea. It’s common to avoid creating a real niche for yourself because you’re afraid of someone “missing out” or “not getting help.” Over the years, I’ve worked hard to niche down, realized it was either too far or not far enough, pivoted, and adjusted - and that’s normal.

PlacedThe Sorek Valley: Terrain of TemptationBorn at the edge of the hill country, Samson is called from birth to be a judge for Israel. Yet he’s constantly looking across the Sorek Valley to the Coastal Plain, heading the exact opposite direction of his calling. His failures as a leader in Israel hurt many people.But the fact that Samson’s story is included in Scripture can give us hope. The God of Samson doesn’t call us to protect his reputation but instead invites us into the courageous work of repentance. Visit kelsagraybill.com to see photos of the Sorek...

PlacedThe Hill Country of Judah: God's Solidarity with UsIn the tightly-knit Hill Country of Judah lies Bethlehem, and it's here that God will knit Naomi back together. Ruth's solidarity with her mother-in-law shatters the narrative of bitterness and inspires Boaz to also stand beside them. Ruth provides us a picture of God-with-us: the loyal love that is chasing us down in whatever dark places we find ourselves. It also inspires us to stand in solidarity with others in their dark hours, carrying them to God's presence as well.Visit kelsagraybill.com to view photos of the Hill Country of Judah, download the show...

PlacedThe Jezreel Valley: Meeting the God of CreativityJezreel means “God sows,” and it’s in the Jezreel Valley where God creatively sows victory. He uses the most underestimated and overlooked people and places in his plan of redemption: two women, Deborah and Jael, a vulnerable position on the battlefield, and a tent peg. The Jezreel Valley reminds us that we serve a God of limitless creativity. He is not bound by our limited resources. Instead, the God who used the cross to work salvation is using the difficult and vulnerable parts of our stories to work restoration.Visit kelsagraybill.com to download a beau...

Ironically, it’s at this lowest point on earth that God elevates Joshua as the new leader and welcomes the people home.The Jordan River crossing teaches us to walk down trusting that God can redeem our rock-bottom places. Here we learn to surrender our vision in exchange for a redemptive vision. Our God turns barriers into doorways.

We’ll also look behind the scenes to consider how God is using the landscape of the desert to call Israel into deeper faith in his provision.What if the desert isn’t a rejection or a lesson but instead a place to kindle a deeper relationship with God? What if the very terrain that magnifies our neediness and triggers a scarcity...
