Redesign Your Financial Habits
Course Length: 20 Minutes

Often times, we create spending plans with the right motivation and knowledge to execute on it, BUT there’s something else at play. Habits.

They take a bit of thought to change or implement. This course is useful for:
  • If you have made a budget, then forgetting to stick to it.
  • If you have created a spending plan with motivation and knowledge to execute, but old habits get in the way.
  • Learning what your spending habits are.
Making the Most of Your Money
Course Length: 10 minutes

Have you ever received a large sum of money? Perhaps you received a tax refund, a bonus, inheritance or insurance settlement. 

The course provides you with confidence to create a game plan for how to best use a lump sum of money. This course is useful for people:
  • Looking to establish or increase emergency savings.
  • Saving for a specific goal like a vacation, school or vehicle.
  • Considering paying down debt, like credit cards or student loans.
  • Catching up on bills like rent, mortgage or utilities.
Aligning Priorities
Course Length: 25 minutes

Changes to our financial lives can often result in stress, making decisions even more challenging. We have a natural tendency to avoid choices that feel like we are giving something up. Instead, we may try our best to take each day as it comes without a plan.

Gain confidence handling your money by working through the steps outlined in the course. This course is useful for people who:
  • Have experienced a sudden change, such as loss of income.
  • Desire more clarity on their short term financial plan.
  • Feel motivated to take action, but aren’t quite sure where to start.
