Nicolette Alger

Nicolette has a Masters degree in Family Financial Planning, but beyond her formal education and training, she has her own personal story of financial hardship, and a journey of learning, progression and mastery. Her studies began in early adulthood when she was a newlywed and hoping to start a family. Realizing she knew very little about how to apply practical principles in finance, she began a self-study journey which led her to discover her passion for all things finance. But it wasn’t necessarily money she was after, but personal freedom, choices, opportunities and the ability to help others. Money brings these opportunities.

The more she studied the more she realized a formal education in finance would be beneficial. She graduated with her Masters in Family Financial Planning in December of 2015. After graduating, she worked as a financial coach for three years with a company called Mvelopes. Recently, she has launched her own financial coaching business to be better able to provide faith-based coaching in finances to women and families. You can find her blog and services at www.nicolettealger.com. Continuing education is important to Nicolette and she will always bring the most effective and sound principles to her coaching.

As a mom of four little girls, Nicolette’s passion is educating and coaching women to take control of their finances so they can be good stewards of their resources, and create freedom and opportunities for themselves and their families, and be able to teach others.

Let’s get the elephant out of the room right away and admit that a spending plan is pretty much the same thing as a budget. Many people have bad connotations of the word budget. “Budget” often makes people feel scarcity - that a budget is telling them what they can’t do and placing limits on [...]
