Frequently Asked Questions

Why do I need to hire a Coach?

Having coached mostly athletes for several years, I have witnessed first-hand that even well-intentioned individuals struggle to motivate themselves to follow through with plans. It’s simply easier to do nothing when no one is watching. The accountability that a Coach provides truly is invaluable - whether it be a retirement plan, a workout design, or a personal spending budget. I can either help you formulate a plan from step one or provide insight and advice if you already have one. There’s a service for everyone.

Why should I hire Matt and MBG Coaching LLC for the Retirement Coaching Package?

I pride myself on listening well to client needs, asking meaningful questions, communicating effectively in a timely manner, and truly caring about your success. I am positive and encouraging but also not afraid to challenge you to take a difficult step if it’s what you need to get to where you want to go. I take great joy in seeing others accomplish their goals and I want to celebrate every win with you along the way.

A few unique perks of hiring MBG Coaching LLC:

  • 10% of what you pay for any service will be donated to a charitable category of your choice (of the listed options MBG Coaching LLC supports)

  • Every future Retirement Coaching Package client of MBG Coaching LLC that you refer will earn you a $60 referral bonus (if you refer 10 or more future clients you will recoup your original investment as there are unlimited referrals)

  • Discounts on future coaching, consulting, or special services that you purchase (whether for yourself or as a gift to others)

  • Clients with their own small businesses will be afforded the opportunity to advertise their website on the Partners section of this site for free

  • Opportunities for ongoing support from Coach Matt via unlimited email support, annual 1-hour check-ins, and a chance to be a part of monthly Zoom meetings with fellow clients

What is a Retirement Coach?

A retirement coach helps clients plan for the non-financial aspects of transitioning from traditional work to a new chapter in one’s life. Topics covered are very specific to the unique needs of the client. However, a few typical questions that will be explored include:

  • Now that you may no longer be working in your primary job, who are you? What is your new identity, meaning, and purpose as a retiree?

  • How are you going to spend time now that you’ve potentially freed up 1/3 - 1/2 of your waking hours?

  • Who are you going to spend time with since you won’t have the daily interaction of your work colleagues?

  • How are you going to stay physically and mentally healthy as you age?

  • What type of legacy do you want to leave for your family or the world as a whole?

What if my unique needs can’t be served by your coaching services?

During our free 20-minute consultation, if it’s clear that you may benefit from a different type of service, I will be happy to refer you. I am familiar with professionals who do health/life coaching, financial planning/investing, counseling/therapy, marathon training, etc. that I will connect you with to better serve you.

How do the referral bonuses work?

Every client that purchases a Comprehensive Retirement Coaching Package service can receive one $60 referral bonus per future/new client who purchases a Comprehensive Retirement Coaching Package. Each future client can only be referred by one former/current client since only one bonus can be paid per new client.
