Frequently Asked Questions

Alpine Ascent Solutions is a coaching service designed for engaged and newlywed couples. I help you build financial clarity, align life goals, tackle debt, and develop a strong mindset around money—so you can start your journey together on solid ground. 

Nope! I work with both engaged and newlywed couples. If you are engaged, our work focuses on communication, goal alignment, and financial preparation—without merging finances until after marriage. 

For engaged couples, we focus on financial transparency, value alignment, and setting joint goals—without combining money. Newlyweds can begin integrating finances with support, including budgeting, debt planning, and wealth-building strategies. 

Your first session is a judgment-free, collaborative conversation. We’ll explore your individual money stories, set shared goals, and identify your biggest financial stress points. You’ll leave with clarity and next steps. 

No, not until you're married. I believe that financial unity is important—but it should be approached at the right time. Until then, I help you plan, budget, and set goals as a team, while keeping your accounts separate. 

Absolutely. Many couples come in with different financial habits, beliefs, or fears. Coaching gives you the tools to understand each other’s mindset, find common ground, and reduce conflict over money. 

Great question! Coaching focuses on education, empowerment, and action—not investment advice or emotional therapy. I help you develop habits, systems, and shared strategies to manage money well together. 

It varies. Most couples work with me for 3–6 months, depending on their goals. I offer packages to keep things flexible and affordable. 

All coaching is held virtually via Zoom, so you can join from anywhere. This keeps it convenient and low-stress. 

Yes. Coaching is most effective when both partners are present and engaged in the process. Your journey is shared, and your decisions should be too. 

I offer tiered coaching packages, including shorter term and also longer term packages. Prices vary based on your needs. A free consultation is the best way to find the right fit. 

Yes! Your first 45-minute consultation is complimentary. It’s a chance to ask questions, share your goals, and see if we’re a good match. 

No problem. There’s no long-term pressure. You’re welcome to pause or stop anytime—I only want to work together if it feels supportive and productive for you. 

Always. Your personal and financial details are kept private and secure. I value your trust and are committed to maintaining confidentiality. 

It’s totally normal—money can bring up big emotions. I create a safe space for honest conversation, and we’ll guide you through disagreements with respect and compassion. 

Yes. Before our first session, both partners will review and sign a coaching agreement. It outlines what’s included, how we’ll work together, confidentiality, and session policies—so everyone is on the same page from day one. 

No, coaching fees are non-refundable. Coaching is a time-based, service-oriented commitment. I reserve time and energy just for you, and your growth depends on your active participation. You'll get out of it what you put into it—and I am here to support you every step of the way. 

I understand that life happens. I ask for at least 24 hours’ notice to reschedule a session. Missed sessions without notice may be forfeited, depending on the terms outlined in your agreement.
