FAQs

What is Financial Coaching and how does it differ from Financial Advice / Planning?

Financial Coaching is designed to help empower you to manage your own money for your specific goals. At Tanser Coaching we are here to help build your awareness and understanding of both the financial world and your relationship with money, and support and guide you through your choices. Crucially I am not here to sell products or to tell you which products you should buy or invest in. As such, Tanser Coaching is not regulated by the FCA.

Do I need to have a certain amount of money or financial knowledge to benefit from financial coaching?

Absolutely not. Financial Coaching is about acknowledging where you’re currently at, identifying your goals and supporting and guiding you in reaching them. There is no judgment involved. We are all on a journey!

Why do you primarily focus on working with women?

I have a strong passion to help women become financially secure and independent, so they have freedom to make choices in their lives. You can find out more on my About Me page.

What should I expect to pay with Tanser Coaching?

You can find out more about how my package and charging works on my Work With Me page. Some coaching objectives can be accomplished within those first three sessions. Others may need a bit more time depending on the complexity of your goals, and the level of support and guidance you prefer along your journey. We can talk through that in more detail in our initial chat, and then identify what structure will best help you achieve your goals in those first few sessions.

What are your qualifications for financial coaching?

I have been in the consumer finance industry for nearly 20 years in the UK and US, primarily at large financial institutions, and now on the flip side as a personal financial coach. I have a BA in Economics, an MBA, have been trained in Financial Coaching through Wise Monkey certification training, and am on track to obtain my Diploma for Financial Advice.
