My partner and I have loved working with the Gym and especially our financial trainer! Ijal has been so caring and thoughtful every time we've chatted with her. Talking about finances are not always super comfortable, especially as a couple, but Ijal has made it so easy to open up about our concerns, our struggles and goals in a no-judgment zone. She's been a wonderful support system and because of our plan structure my partner and I are feeling so excited for our future. Plus we feel like we are working toward smart and realistic goals. I recommend the financial gym to all my friends and find them to be an amazing resource!

Great experience with Sam!
Sam Cash was my advisor and I couldn't have asked for a better person throughout my financial journey in the last year. She was very supportive, non-judgmental, and was always more than willing to meet with me when needed. I had some financial obstacles that were hindering my confidence and everyday life situations. Sam helped guide me on making the necessary steps in order to get to a better place financially, which also helped confidence. I can't thank her enough for this positive experience. I highly recommend Sam!

Positive Changes & Financial Understanding
Gina is incredible! I've been working with her for about a year now and I could have never imagined the changes that have taken place in my finances. My credit score has grown well over 150 points, I've built up an emergency fund, and while balancing paying off debts. She's genuinely taught me so much!

Finally feeling supported, organized and confident
In the four months I have been with Financial Gym, I feel like I have made significant progress. Like many others, I was afraid of facing the reality of my finances for years. I was luckily matched with Ijal, who has been so comforting and supportive along the way. Her calm and understanding demeanor helped me feel comfortable when discussing my personal background and current financial situation. I never feel judged or discouraged. Very happy to have her in my corner to support me in my journey!

Transformed my money habits from debt to on track for a healthy financial future
I've used Financial Gym for a couple of years now and this has completely transformed my money habits. I worked with a financial coach in the past, which helped explore my relationship with money. However, it wasn't until Financial Gym that I started believing in my ability to save and meet my financial goals -- and see progress towards them. Most recently, I've worked with Kylie and she's amazing. I also love the resources and practical tips they provide. Can't recommend enough.

This one goes out to Sara B and WOW- I am LONG overdue in writing this review.
I have been a client of The Financial Gym with Sara B as my trainer since October 2019 when I took the leap to get support.
Like many others, when I started with TFG, I had student loan debt, an older car that had no payments but required maintenance equal to a payment and I was mostly lacking the knowledge of where to go overall with my financial health.
In my 4.5+ years as a client; I have achieved more than I could have EVER imagined.
Sara B has single-handedly supported my personal growth in learning how to not only understand wealth but to also create wealth and use it in a way that is meaningful to me.
I've moved countless times, including life in 3 different states in a short amount of time. I've paid off credit card debts from doggy medical bills, paid down student loads massively, saved to buy a "new to me" car that was a stellar deal, built my credit score to stay near/above 800+ and so much more.
Most recently - I accomplished my wildest and biggest goal of purchasing a home that's a duplex which allows me to house hack - again, still supporting all of my goals and also reducing my overall cost of living.
SO - all this to say; if you are on the fence about working with The Financial Gym - simply put, don't be! They are a safe space, a sanctuary and the greatest blessing of all time. You will absolutely not regret it.
Having once been the 23 year old who was wrongly sold life insurance to access a "budget" from a financial planner who had no actual interest in supporting me - PLEASE, utilize The Financial Gym. They are going to support you so much better than anyone else.
I am genuinely in happy tears writing this review because WOW - TFG and Sara B have had my back in the most incredible and meaningful way. I cannot wait to invest further with their new investments side of their business and literally cannot imagine life without this service!
And to the Founder/CEO, Shannon; thank you for building such an incredible business that people truly need. You are incredible, the team you have is incredible and TFG in all its forms is INCREDIBLE. I mention TFG nearly every day of my life to someone new. Cheers!
