What is a Certified Family Manager® Coach (CFMC)?
Family Manager Coaches are trained on-line through the Family Manager University to inspire, equip, and assist their clients in
creating a happier, more organized home and living a more balanced, fulfilling life based on the client’s own goals and priorities.
Only Family Manager Coaches can offer the proprietary Family Manager Assessment and Personalized Action Plan, state-of-the-art
tools developed for Family Manager, based on Kathy Peel’s 19 books and 20 years of experience coaching women and families.
How does a CFMC differ from a Professional Organizer or Life Coach?
A Certified Family Manager Coach (CFMC) does cross over into these other areas, and for this reason, some of these types of
professionals have added CFMC to their credentials. A Professional Organizer may or may not be certified by the National
Association of Professional Organizers (NAPO). Typically, an Organizer will help you within the Home & Property department of your
home and maybe the Time & Scheduling department, but does not usually address the other five departments - food, finance,
family & friends, special events and self. They also don't usually talk about family issues such as team management, delegating
and creating family ties. Like a Professional Organizer, a Life Coach may or may not have had extensive training and be certified by
a Coaching Association. Either way, a Life Coach typically helps you focus on your individual goals in your life (mainly within the self
department). As a Certified Family Manager Coach, I help you assess what areas within the seven departments that you need
assistance with and we design a plan of action from there.
What are the benefits of having a Family Manager Coach?
Working with a Family Manager Coach provides you with personalized, one-on-one coaching, consulting and advising. You receive:
An assessment of where you are and where you want to be; A relationship that is focused on your success by providing
guidance, feedback, and direction; A partner who will motivate and inspire you as well as to offer you an objective opinion; A
proven system of strategies and solutions to help you tackle your challenges and to be able to confidently adapt these skills to
new or different areas of your home and family life.

What is a Creative Wealth Coach?
A Creative Wealth Coach has attended a 5-day intensive Train-the-Trainer program to become certified. As part of the training,
the potential coach must give a presentation that is critiqued by CWI Staff. Once certified, the Coach signs a licensing agreement
with Creative Wealth International to be able to offer CWI programs in his/her community.
How are Creative Wealth programs different from other financial literacy programs?
There are two main ways that CWI programs are unique:
- We teach not only the mechanics of money, but also the principles necessary for wealth creation.
- We use the Quantum Teaching methods in our programs. By utilizing Quantum teaching methods, we are able to
combine an content-rich curriculum with innovative presentation techniques to create a dynamic context where the
participants not only learn faster, but are also actively engaged and enjoy learning.
Are you a Financial Planner, CPA or other financial professional?
I am not a Financial professional nor do I pretend to be. I and Family Life By Design do not offer any financial investing advice.
When conducting adult programs, we bring in Specialists to answer any detailed or specific financial questions. I have a degree
in Secondary Education with an emphasis as a Training Specialist. I have been involved with financial literacy, especially for
youth, since 1986. I currently serve on the board of the North Carolina JumpStart Coalition for Personal Financial Literacy. You
