Wise Monkey Financial Coaching
I’ve made a short video to show you a step by step approach which helped me personally save over £100 a year on my gas and electricity bills, while avoiding future price rises for another 18 months. It’s easy and effortless - I promise!

I’m still buzzing from our training last week, taking six trainees through our five-day Financial Coach Practitioner Certificate programme. We had a great mix of participants - including one who travelled from Mozambique to join us – and from different professional disciplines.
It was wonderful to work with Jude Kutner again, our training consultant who helped me turn my methodology, tools, resources and experience into a powerful experiential training that was interactive and fun. Everyone received focused feedback to enable them to build and consolidate their skills throughout the week. The feedback we’ve received has been incredible and I felt such immense pride seeing the transformation in each of the trainees as their confidence and skills expanded.

Last night, I delivered a workshop in Brighton where I got everyone talking about their relationship with money. It was playful and fun – not what people would expect from a workshop about money!

I’ve found myself mentioning Maria Nemeth’s work quite a bit to clients recently. She wrote a compassionate and empowering book in 1997 called ‘The Energy of Money’ and she talks about success being ‘doing what you say you’re going to do in life, with clarity, ease, focus, and grace’.
The same goes for financial success. In other words, it’s not about how much money you have in the bank, or invested in property, pensions and ISAs. Or anything to do with where you go on holiday, whether your kids are privately educated and whether or not you can afford a cleaner or shop in Waitrose. It’s about moment by moment decisions where you do what you said you were going to do with money, with clarity, focus, ease and grace.
