Note: Coaching is designed to provide the client with accurate and authoritative information regarding the management of their financial wellness. It is provided with the understanding that the coach will not provide legal, accounting, investing or other professional advice or services.

Since the client’s situation is fact dependent, the client must seek the services of an appropriate licensed legal, accounting, or investment professional if needed.
