Financial Coaching

Empowering Individuals to Achieve Greater Financial Freedom 

Sonoma Wealth Advisors now offers Financial Coaching to serve the expanded financial needs of our community. In addition to our existing clients, we are able to assist their family and friends who need help on their journey to financial well-being.


WHAT IS FINANCIAL COACHING

Financial Coaching is a collaborative relationship in which the dialogue is centered around the client’s day-to-day money choices.

A Financial Coach is distinct from a Financial Advisor in that they do not recommend or procure financial products.

Instead, the coach and client explore goals and dreams, create a plan of action, and remove barriers that get in the way of achieving those goals.

Through encouragement and inspiration, the client is able to take the steps to achieve financial well-being.

78% of Americans are living paycheck to paycheck. Financial coaching offers the ability to help people handle their day-to-day financial problems, and help deliver hope.
