The matching process involves several factors. We try to align schedules, coordinate locations, and consider life experiences.
You can meet via Zoom or in person at a location that is convenient for you and the mentor.
Regular attendance is essential to achieve maximum benefits. If you must cancel or reschedule, please contact your mentor at least 24 hours in advance of the scheduled time.
To respect your mentor’s time, missed sessions may result in the discontinuation of the program.
If you are married, both you and your spouse are required to attend all sessions together.
Yes. You will be required to complete weekly homework assignments and come prepared for each meeting.
Each session with your mentor will be based on the concept presented and the information you gather from doing the homework.
Homework may include reading, listening to a video, and tracking your expenses. It may require an hour or more per week.
The mentoring process varies from three to six months. Each session can take one to two hours, depending on the needs of the person or couple.
Coaching is a single, one-hour session with a MoneyWise Mentor.
All communication between you and your mentor is confidential. Georgia state law requires that the mentor report any suspected sexual abuse, physical abuse, neglect, or serious threat of physical harm to self or others.
"We both brought debt into our marriage and struggled to pay it off."
"MoneyWise helped us get the knowledge we needed, the tools to stay on track, and the options that fit our unique circumstances. In only 11 months, we paid off $22,000 in debt. We are now debt-free and have the margin to give generously."
