134 | Aligning Expenses with Values: How to Conduct a Cost Saving Audit


Listen Later

I can guarantee you have money going out of your account right now that you don’t know about. As a financial coach, I want you to spend money intentionally. Regaining control of your finances starts with matching your expenses to your values and goals. This not only helps you manage your money better but also opens up opportunities to increase savings, pay down debt faster, and spend money drama free.


In today’s episode, I share a money exercise I do with all of my clients: the cost-saving audit. An annual cost-saving audit ensures you are spending money in ways that feel intentional and align with your goals. I explain the importance of auditing negotiable bills and subscriptions so you can repurpose money to spend on things you love. 


From checking your cell phone plan and car insurance coverage to managing TV subscriptions, I explain how to conduct a cost-savings audit to optimize your budget. 


Learn where to audit your budget:
