PDX Money Coaching, Portland OR

It was a pleasure to work with Emily. I was able to work with Emily through 2 major life decisions; planning for homeownership and preparing to launch my own business. Emily's skills, capabilities, preparedness, directness, and understanding all gave me the confidence and readiness to move forward with both life achievements. I've been in my home for over a year now and it was a direct result of working with PDX Money Coaching. I'm beginning the journey of starting a business and I will use PDX Money Coaching to continue to keep me on track with support and practical deliverables. These life moments could be overwhelming enough to stop before you start. Emily worked with me to understand my dreams are possible and attainable with planning, actionable steps, and dedication. I'm so grateful to Emily for supporting my dreams and helping me to make them apart of my life. Thank you PDX Money Coaching. I would easily refer them to my friends, family, and future clients.

Highly recommend PDX money coaching. We have a plan that makes sense and feels like we've lifted the world off our shoulders a tiny bit (actually a lot!) with Emily's advice, guidance and wisdom.

Working with Emily was one of the best things my partner and I have ever done. She was able to totally transform our relationship with our finances very quickly and easily. We went from feeling stressed out and having no clue where our money was going every month, to being confident, stress-free and in total control. I absolutely recommend her to anyone who doesn't already have a stress-free, confident and FUN relationship with their income and expenses. It will change your life, no exaggeration!

My partner and I had a wonderful, very clarifying session with Emily after a friend recommended her work. The preparation work itself was helpful, and then Emily wove everything together in a way that left us feeling more empowered about our finances than we have in a long time!

Emily is a god-send! I was so stressed about my spending habits and money organization- I was constantly berating myself for my poor discipline. Then Emily showed me how to actually budget (for real, not just giving it a stab like I've done in the past), manage for real life circumstances, and feel empowered with my money. I've already saved thousands, just by seeing my money, and making choices I WANT to make. Thank you Emily!

Emily is amazing, she is such an foundational support in my money journey. Her approach allows me to center my needs and priorities, while discovering new ways to interact with money, and budgeting. Her knowledge and unbiased POV allows meaningful conversations and true integration on strategies that work for my life.at all the different stages!

If your thinking of working with Emily you will not be disappointed! She is the perfect blend of accountability and grace. I have so much more confidence and control of my finances after this program:)

Emily is the best! She never made us feel bad about what we didn't know or hadn't yet done in terms of our finances. I have already recommended her to several friends and colleagues. It is totally worth the cost to work with Emily and you will definitely make that money back in terms of what you save. I feel so much more on top of our finances. I have a better sense of how much money we actually have and I know that I'm planning for future expenses.

Emily is very thorough and approaches her coaching from a variety of angles. As a landlord I appreciate her experience and understanding from also owning rental property. She also recognizes the value of having a team of professionals to assist with finances.

If you're looking for someone to guide you through the financial implications of making your dreams come true, I cannot recommend Emily Gowen more highly! My fiance and I sought her expertise for guidance in thoughtfully merging our finances, saving for our wedding and honeymoon, and eventually buying our first home. Looking back, I only wish we'd done this sooner! While we used to cringe at the thought of not only devising a budget, but sticking to it, Emily gave us the tools we needed to make budgeting (dare I say it?) fun! We continue to be amazed at how we've been able to grow our savings in such a short amount of time. She will help you take an honest look at your income and expenses, and perhaps even more essentially, what is most important to you. Then she'll guide you through creating a budget that works best for you. In addition, she has plenty of resources to share for those entering into their first home buying experience. Whatever it is you're looking to do with your finances, rest assured Emily can help you find the way!

Emily is a kind, knowledgable guide that has helped me to understand the flow of money in my life. Enormously helpful and absolutely worth it for my family's. I feel more and more confident through our work together!

Emily was incredibly warm, welcoming and practical! My husband and I came to her looking to organize our joint bank account and do some future planning/get a read on our current situation. Her advice was sustainable, functional, and down to earth. Emily helped us not only organize with an amazing app called YNAB, but also helped us to map out our future financial plans so that we could start really saving our money for the things we wanted. She was able to set us up with a monthly plan that worked in our budget and gave us friendly recommendations on where to get our taxes done/how to save money in specific places. We've already saved a lot of money using her advice! We will will definitely be using her services again and would recommend her to anyone looking for a friendly, down to earth person to talk the money talk with.

I chose to work with Emily because I needed to get honest, once and for all, about money. Emily immediately put me on a path of financial clarity and integrity (primarily involving simple yet honest budgeting) that has turned my financial life around. Because money affects so much of one's life, I've already gone beyond budgeting to discover greater clarity about major financial challenges like buying a home and preparing for (a hopefully early) retirement. I agree with others who wrote that Emily is practical, authentic, non-judgmental and knowledgeable. I highly recommend coaching with Emily to anyone who wants to achieve transformative breakthroughs in their financial life.

After 10 years of owning my own business, I finally understand my finances completely thanks to Emily. She was patient and went above and beyond to help me understand. I feel confident now when applying for loans. She checks in on me often too! Hire her, you wont be sorry.

Emily of PDX Money Coaching provides a safe and knowledgeable space to create realistic systems in both my personal & business finances. I appreciate Emily's non-judgmental, kind, and approachable perspectives. I HIGHLY recommend working with Emily!
