While working as an Outside Sales Professional on a September afternoon in 2003, Molly found herself telling a potential client 'you cannot afford this'. After her credit was declined, and some poignant questions asked, Molly sat down with the young lady to help her create a realistic budget. There was simply no way she was going to let her get into more debt than she was already in at the time. Obviously, Molly didn't make the sale. Instead, she walked away with a sense of joy that she had never known. While driving back to her office, she didn't have a signature...but she had a purpose. On that afternoon, 'Molly Cooley Financial Coaching' (MCFC) was born.
Molly is passionate about helping others to win with their personal finance and to teach common sense principles for the benefit of their long term financial well-being. With the heart of a teacher, she works with clients for as long as necessary to ensure they are on the right track in managing their households and small businesses. For those who have no desire and/or time to manage their personal monthly finances, MCFC also provides fee-based Monthly Money Management (M3) Services for busy professionals.
Whether a client makes $40,000 or $400,000 a year, everyone needs a plan. As Zig Ziglar always said, "If you aim at nothing, you will hit it every time". Working with her clients, she helps create YOUR custom plan. Molly's job is to create a realistic budget (where one may not exist) and to ensure her clients stay on track, get out of debt, have an emergency fund, and keep them moving upward to be in a position to invest more with their Investment Advisors and to ENJOY their money. And, not just in the future...but how to enjoy it NOW.
Molly earned her Bachelor of Science in Family Studies from the University of Kentucky. (Louisville Cardinal fans don't despair...she roots for both teams!) Her undergraduate coursework concentrated in Family Financial Planning & Resource Management, Organizational & Time Management, Consumer Studies, and Individual, Marriage, & Family Therapy. She earned her "TimeQuest" Certificate from Franklin Quest (now Franklin Covey) and then went on to earn her certificate as a Certified Financial Counselor through the state of Tennessee, training with Dave Ramsey's team of Financial Counselors. Molly has served as a Dave Ramsey Certified Financial Counselor for the Louisville Metro Area, including Southern Indiana and the surrounding counties of Oldham, Henry, Shelby, Spencer, Nelson, and Bullitt, since 2008.
Upon graduation from UK, Molly spent several years in Customer Service for a National Consumer Hotline. During this time, she spent two years studying Marketing and Management at the Jeffersonville, IN (now located in Louisville, KY) Satellite Campus of Webster University in St. Louis, Missouri. Moving on after Graduate School, she racked up a lot of air and highway miles while traveling the country for more than a decade as an Outside Sales Professional. Molly specialized in creating marketing campaigns and selling advertising and software for small businesses and restaurants before succumbing to her true calling and utilizing her given passions and talents: managing money and helping others to win with their largest wealth building asset....their income.
No judgment here...
After falling into the same traps that most Americans fell into, Molly found herself in debt! So, yeah, she's been there, done that, and kept the same t-shirt you might be wearing right now as a reminder of her own choices. She found her way out and can truly empathize with those who are currently struggling with their personal and/or business finances. Since becoming debt-free more than a decade ago, Molly has worked with hundreds of clients over the years. She enjoys helping single individuals, couples, and small businesses to get on the path to financial freedom. Molly also enjoys working with Outside Sales Professionals and Small Business Owners to coach them to success and achieve their professional goals.
