Stories That Inspire Us with Candice Bakx-Friesen - 01.27.23

Stories That Inspire Us welcomed to today’s podcast, Friday, January 27, 2023, Candice Bakx-Friesen.  Candice is passionate about helping people reach their financial dreams. She is a highly motivated woman who has a passion for helping others succeed in life and business. She is a mother of 4, top performing realtor, entrepreneur, money coach, and speaker.

There is often an emotional attachment with finances and it’s at times deemed as a taboo type of subject.  This is where it’s important to establish decision making factors.  There are some questions you should ask yourself:

What is most important?

How much risk am I willing to take?

How much return are you potentially looking for?

Of course, there are many factors and root causes that come into play.  It’s hard; it's’ a challenge yet setting boundaries and working together toward a budget is a plan that everyone should be taking.  Yes; the word budget is not a pleasant word.  As Candice emphasized, uncover the why.

Candice works with couples who at times don’t know how to work with one another when it comes to the topic of finances in general.    Candice coaches her clients through many different factors and scenarios.  Each situation is tailored to meet the couples’  collective needs.

Candice emphasized that you have to start somewhere; start today!  Even if it’s setting aside $50 automatically to go into your savings account each week when you receive your paycheck, that’s a start!  For some, it may be something as simple as literally going through your checkbook to see where you are spending your money.  You might just be shocked where your money is going!  Be honest with yourself and get to the root cause of each challenge - Candice could certainly assist you with that!

To say Candice is “busy” is an understatement.  She has (2) books coming out this year and will keep us posted!  To connect with Candice further, please check out her website and various social media platforms:
