Financial Mentoring in Brent: What to Expect
What is a financial mentor?
A financial mentor is someone further along the road than you who helps you build money confidence over time. Where an adviser hands you a recommendation, a mentor helps you develop the judgement to make good decisions yourself: how to think about risk, how to avoid expensive mistakes, and how to stay consistent when motivation dips. It's a relationship, not a transaction.
Mentoring vs coaching vs advice
The three sit on a spectrum. Mentoring is experience-led and open-ended: perspective from someone who's done it. Coaching is structured: focused sessions with goals, a plan, and accountability. Regulated advice is a paid personal recommendation from an FCA-authorised adviser about specific products. If your question is "what should I do with this pension pot?" you need advice. If it's "how do I get my act together financially?", mentoring or coaching is usually the better-value answer.
What does mentoring cost?
Delphina's structured 1-1 mentoring starts at £99 per session, against £150+ per hour for regulated advice. For someone in Brent working towards a £472,725 retirement number, a handful of sessions a year costs a small fraction of ongoing percentage-of-assets advice fees, while building capability you keep. Every relationship starts with a free 15 minute call.
How Delphina fits in
Delphina's coaches work in a mentoring style: an ongoing 1-1 relationship over video call, grounded in your real numbers. The platform keeps your full financial picture, your Brent retirement number, pensions, and scenarios, in front of both of you, so each session builds on the last instead of starting from scratch. Start with a free 15 minute call to see if the fit is right.
"I finally looked at my pension statement and had no idea if £80,000 was good or bad for my age. Delphina showed me where I stood. I was on track. I nearly cried with relief."
Frequently asked questions
What does a financial mentor do?
A financial mentor shares experience and perspective over an ongoing relationship: helping you build good money habits, think through decisions, and stay accountable to your goals. Unlike a regulated adviser, a mentor doesn't tell you which products to buy; they help you become better at managing money yourself.
What is the difference between financial mentoring and financial coaching?
They overlap a lot. Mentoring is typically experience-led and relationship-based: guidance from someone further down the road than you. Coaching is more structured: sessions focused on specific goals, with a clear plan and accountability. Delphina's coaches blend both, structured sessions backed by real experience.
How much does a financial mentor cost in the UK?
Informal mentoring is sometimes free, but structured mentoring or coaching at Delphina starts at £99 per session, compared to £150+ per hour for regulated financial advice. Every relationship starts with a free 15 minute call so you can see if it's a fit before paying anything.

Your real numbers stay on screen in front of both of you, sessions build on the last, and you don't pay local in-person rates. Mentoring starts at £99 a session, with a free 15 minute call first.
