LB Financial Coaching

CLIENT SPOTLIGHT: Gracie Youngblood 🎉

Gracie and I have been working together for nearly two years now, and it has been incredible to watch her growth.

When we first started, the goals were simple:
✅ Create a monthly spending plan
✅ Build an emergency fund
✅ Gain confidence with money
✅ Create a plan for both her personal finances and growing real estate business

Gracie did the work! She showed up, followed through, and stayed intentional. As her financial confidence grew, so did her real estate business across Nashville and Western Kentucky.

In 2025, all of that hard work paid off in a big way.

🎉 Paid off over $27,000 in student loans
🎉 Purchased her first home in Nashville
🎉 Built savings that allowed her to handle unexpected expenses without panic
🎉 Continued investing in new construction opportunities while strengthening her financial foundation
🎉 Enjoyed travel and the things she loves without guilt or financial stress

For the first 18 months, we met every month. Today, we meet quarterly for accountability, planning, and strategy as she continues to navigate new seasons of life and business.

Gracie no longer fears monthly payments, unexpected expenses, or the financial curveballs that come with being a business owner. She has a plan, she trusts the process, and she knows how to make her money work for her goals.

If you’ve ever wondered what financial coaching is like but don’t want to ask me, ask Gracie. She’ll tell you what happens when a plan meets consistency.

Proud of you, Gracie. Keep crushing it!

CLIENT HIGHLIGHT #2 🎉

Started working together in April with three primary goals:

✔️ Create a budget that actually works
✔️ Build savings
✔️ Pay off debt

Just a few months later, the progress has been incredible:

• Living with intentionality and confidence around money
• Every paycheck has a plan before it arrives
• Contributing enough to receive the full 3% employer match
• Built savings up to $1,650
• Paid off 3 debts already
• On track to eliminate another debt next month

Financial progress happens when money is given a purpose, decisions become intentional, and consistency replaces guesswork.

When people think about saving money, they usually think about cutting back.
I like to think about getting more value.

Across Western Kentucky, our local libraries provide books, audiobooks, educational programs, family activities, internet access, and summer events that can help families stay entertained without stretching the budget. The 11-county region is served by 10 public library systems, making this one of the most accessible free resources in our communities.

This summer, challenge yourself to visit your local library before spending money on entertainment.

You may discover your new favorite place—and keep a little extra money in your pocket.
