Hope Financial Coaching - serving clients in Middle Tennessee and Southern Kentucky. Educating clients so they may enjoy a promising financial future. What makes a financial coach different from an accountant or financial advisor? Accountants help people file their taxes. Financial advisors sell investments to people. Financial coaches help people better manage their money. This process involves things like helping people become financially healthy and teaching them to budget properly and develop a retirement plan. This kind of work often results in a person’s life being transformed. Liesl Smith is a Preferred Ramsey Master Financial Coach.
