Life doesn't care about your budget. Here's what I do when life happens and I think I'm financially ruined.

Your expenses aren’t just numbers—they tell the story of your values, habits, and goals. Learn how I simplified my spending, stopped feeling guilty, and started using every dollar with purpose. This might change how you see your money for good.

Forget monthly forecasts. The most powerful way to budget is by focusing only on what bills are due and what impact you can make during your current pay period. That’s where real control, progress, and financial clarity begin.

Most people obsess over budgets and investments—but overlook where they bank. I break down why it matters, what works for me, and why it’s time to rethink who holds your money.

TLDR: Having a budget is a MUST when working to get a hold of your finances. It gives you peace of mind, the ability to track progress towards your goals and plan for the future. You don't need much more reason than that to start a budget today.
