So… How exactly can a financial coach help me?
Tracy Latona |
I get this question a lot.
“Tracy, what do you actually do as a financial coach?”
And I get it—”financial coach” sounds vague. Like, do I just tell you to stop buying lattes and make a spreadsheet?
Spoiler: No. (Also, keep the latte. Life’s too short.)
Here’s what happens when we work together.
I kept seeing smart people who KNEW they should budget… but didn’t. People with all the “right” tools… but stagnant bank accounts and constant money stress.
Why? Because money is 80% behavior and only 20% math.
You can’t budget your way out of a scarcity mindset. And abundance doesn’t grow in the presence of scarcity.
That’s why I created The Steward and Grow Method, where we address BOTH the practical side AND the internal transformation, so managing money feels easy and you have a relationship with your finances that honors God.
We do this in 3 phases.
First, we CREATE structure & organization for your money
We build your budget using a method that works for YOUR brain. (Not a template you’ll abandon by February.)
We streamline your accounts and create YOUR money roadmap, so you know what your next step is, instead of wondering how the heck you’ll reach your financial goal (Like living debt free. Or cash flowing a trip to Italy to go on a pizza journey. Or create the money to invest so you retire a net-worth millionaire).
For couples: We help you work as a team—shared vision, money conversations where you BOTH feel heard, instead of fighting about Target runs.
You’ll build your 3-6 month emergency fund so a $700 car repair gets an eye roll, not a panic attack.
Real result: One client paid off $47K in debt AND built a six-month emergency fund in six months.
Next, we IGNITE Vision & Purpose
We get clear on where you’re going and WHY. What do you want your giving to look like? What future are you building? We find your PURPOSE and align your finances with it.
Then we create bite-sized goals that keep you motivated and disciplined when life throws lemons (or medical bills, or the transmission dies).
Then, we TRANSFORM your Mindset & Identity, so you BECOME the Steward God is calling you to be.
Managing money feeling stressful → Money feels like a tool to build the Kingdom and enjoy
Avoiding finances or compulsively checking → Budgeting with ease, saying YES and “Not Yet” without guilt
Impulse Amazon purchases at 11pm → Enjoying your income without worry about bills
Avoiding money talks with your spouse → Working as a team toward a shared vision
Believing wealth is selfish → Saving money, paying off debt, giving joyfully
Your transformation: Not just “I have a budget now.” But “I’m a different person with money.”
WHY THIS WORKS
Other coaches do a budget with you and say, “budget harder” when it doesn’t work.
Steward and Grow is rooted in Biblical stewardship, not hustle culture, prosperity gospel, or poverty theology.
Here’s why what you’ve tried hasn’t worked: If you only have 2 of the 3 phases, you’ll slide back. You need all three.
I know you’re ready to become the Steward God is calling you to be.
It’s time to Book your Money Strategy Session, where we’ll design a plan for you to stop your money stress, give you the tools and mindsets to become the Steward God is calling you to be, and help you decide if working together is the next best step for you to execute your plan faster than you thought possible.
Because it’s time to stop the money stress, and manage God’s money His way and live abundantly.
