​

Hi, I’m Ben Getley, the founder of this coaching practice. I am a Financial Coach.  I’m thrilled that you’re here...

​

Let me assure you that I DO NOT tell you how to spend or invest your money or make 6 figure figures in a matter of a few months. 

 

So, lets keep it real yet effective!

 

Through our online training programs, group coaching and one-on- one coaching sessions, I help people like you take control of your financial life, learn practical money and life skills and build the confidence to achieve your goals with savings and a great money mindset.

​

Here’s how it all started for me…..

 

I was 34 outwardly successful; however, I was feeling a sense of restlessness inside.  My wife suffered a life-threatening illness in 2011.This gave me a wakeup call and showed me how little flexibility and freedom I had in my working life to be able to care for those I cared about in moments like this.

 

I decided to work, save and manage my money so that I could be in a position to have enough money to clear my debt and cover my living expenses by the age of 40 so that I would never experience this feeling of being trapped by a job, lack of money or debt again.

​

However, as I worked towards this goal, I became worried about all the things that could go wrong, my world shrunk, I felt stuck. I lost my self-confidence and sense of adventure that had served me well in the past. I felt overcommitted and burdened by the responsibilities of the modern professional.  As result, I became fearful and constantly on-guard.

 

I carried this feeling even as work became optional, and my wealth increased.  

​

As I focused on achieving financial independence, I worked on developing new knowledge, skills, and perspective on my financial situation. I devoured many books, podcasts, connected with many like-minded individuals and began to invest in myself again. I also trained to become a yoga teacher which took me on a deeper spiritual journey as well as demonstrating to myself that I could learn new skills, design a new chapter in my life all whilst juggling numerous responsibilities.

 

As  I opened up and spoke to more people about my own financial journey, I came to learn other people also felt the same sense of stress, anxiety and general feeling of being out of control around their personal finances and did not know how to ask for help or who to talk to. And let’s face it, nobody teaches us about money or our relationship with it.

 

 

I learnt that there is comfort in talking about "taboo" subjects such as money and emotions with a supportive community.  

 

 Though functional and worthwhile as a way of motivating me, my goal was linked to a fear of running out of money which resulted in me sacrificing happiness and our one precious commodity that is not renewable "time! Once I realised this, I started to relax and enjoy the things that made me happy in life like travel, making memories, taking care of my health and my loved ones, plus contributing to the world in a meaningful way.

​​

That was four years ago and that's exactly why I trained to become a certified financial and professional coach.  I started my financial coaching practice to help my clients to take that first step towards taking command of their own finances, change their relationship with money, create intentional change, get comfortable with putting themselves first and design a sustainable path towards financial freedom.

 

And that's how Ben Getley Coaching came about.

​

I run workshops on money mindset, where I coach groups on how to uncover their money blueprints to create new or better choices in their lives.  I often hear people say: "This should be taught to us in school, it would save years of unnecessary fear, worry and anxiety and help create financial freedom and space to make better choices"

 

Many clients often amaze themselves when they discover that their thinking has been determining their reality along with the results that they have been getting.  They are able to create a sense of freedom, clarity and choice in their life that had always been within them. 

 

And that’s exactly what I want to share with you today… And that’s exactly what we’ll explore in our 45-min strategy session together…
