Client Success Story – The Engelman Family

January 22, 2015 by Justin

Engelman Family 2014

Jon & Patti were living the “American Dream”, as a married couple with four wonderful children, they owned a two story house with the white picket fence and of course… the dog.  As successful business owners they were able to create the lifestyle that most people dream of having.  On the outside everything appeared to be going picture perfect.  However, there was a season of life where there were some challenges to overcome.

 

“It Wasn’t Quite so Rosy…”

Jon & Patti knew that things were not going right financially.  It was not an income problem, but more of “where their money was going” problem.  They knew something was not going right with their finances and after struggling on their own they decided that enough is enough.

“We Were Not on the Same Page!”

The Engelman’s found out that it wasn’t just problems with their finances, they realized having money problems leads to problems in other areas of their relationship.  What they found was that tackling their finances was “A Good First Step!” in getting their house in order.  Here is what they shared.

How A Coach Helps With Your Plan

There is nothing like a plan coming together.  Jon & Patti have seen first-hand when you have a plan in place how much peace you can have in your life.  In 90 days of bringing a financial coach into the picture here are the results they achieved.
