Jill Emanuel is our newest financial coach at Fiscal Fitness Phoenix. She started as a client of our nearly 5 years ago and had to drag her husband to their first session. In one week they were cash positive $1500, which was unheard of, and flash forward two years later and they paid off nearly $85,000 in debt! She found her passion for financial coaching after going through her journey with Kelsa and knew she wanted to help other people feel the same way she felt.
If you are looking to get ahold of your personal finances, pay off debt or reach your financial goals with gusto, she goes over some of her amazing insight that will definitely hit home for you.
If you are a person that feels you would love to become a financial coach but don't know where to start, don't know how to start or don't think that you can make a career change, she will tell you how she did it and tell you it can be done!

Financial life coach, Rebeca Lima, grew up poor in Brazil. She eventually emmigrated to the United States, while a teenager and became fluent in Spanish and English. After working in the financial industry for all of her adult life and having the heartbreaking experience of leaving a horrible relationship to live in her car she vowed that she wanted to make sure no one else had to live the same way.

She helps her clients with the practical and emotional side of money by budgeting, empowering them over their money mindset blocks and nurturing their new money habit and mindset within themselves and their relationships.
In this episode we talk with Rebeca about her life experiences that made her want to become a financial life coach, the huge need she sees for bilingual financial coaches, the differences between the needs of english speaking and spanish speaking clients and her tips on becoming a financial coach.

Jill Emanuel is the lead financial coach at Fiscal Fitness Phoenix and has an amazing story about how she and her husband were hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt and on the verge of bankurptcy, to clients of ours for 5 years where they paid off their debt and found financial freedom. She realized that she wanted other people to feel the same way about their finances and wanted to help by becoming a financial coach. You may have heard Kelsa interview her in Episode 30.
In today's episode Jill talks about how married couples (or couples that share their finances) can get on the same page so there are no more fights, stress goes down, everyone's needs are met and the budget is just an afterthought. Since finances are one of, if not the leading causes of divorce, finding some simple solutions to have open communication between spouses, without judgment, is super important.
