PDX Money Coaching

PDX Money Coaching is a financial planner in Portland, OR. The practice empowers individuals, couples, and small business owners to confidently manage their money through intensives, coaching, and ongoing support options. It holds a 5.00 rating from the customers who have reviewed it.

The firm is led by Emily and Naomi, longtime friends who have spent nearly two decades building parallel lives: starting businesses, renovating homes, farming and raising goats, and investing in rental properties. Both have navigated personal loss and financially planned for a surviving parent, and each has recently made a dream cross-country move after nearly 20 years in Portland, one to Vermont and one to Portugal. Their approach centers on the belief that meaningful work, healthy boundaries, financial security, and a life outside of work can all coexist, and that financial coaching should be a warm, kind, judgment-free place to ask honest questions and build money confidence. Their goal is not just financial clarity or independence, but helping clients enjoy the process of building and living the best lives they can imagine, starting now.

Emily Gowen, AFC, brings personal experience to her work: in 2011 she was newly self-employed with consumer debt, student loans, and barely enough money in the bank to feel comfortable. She had always chosen work she loved, even when it didn't pay well, and constantly worried about covering her bills. The practice's signature offering is the Financial Clarity Intensive, a 2-2.5 hour meeting that translates the life a client wants into a Sustainable Spending Plan they can trust and feel excited to follow. Optional ongoing coaching is available for those who want support putting the plan into practice, meeting clients wherever they are in their journey. One client, Autumn of Portland, credits Emily with guiding her and her fiance through merging finances, saving for their wedding and honeymoon, and buying their first home, noting that they grew their savings in a short amount of time and that Emily gave them the tools to make budgeting fun.

The firm's positive rating reflects the trust clients place in its judgment-free, life-focused coaching. For Portland residents seeking to use money as a tool for creating the life they want, PDX Money Coaching offers a path from worry to confidence, one Sustainable Spending Plan at a time.
