161 | Back to In-Person Work? Here’s How to Prepare Your Budget


Listen Later

In today's episode, I'm diving into a topic that's top of mind for many of you right now—adjusting your budget as you return to work after years of working from home. If you're one of the many federal employees who's now required to go into the office as departments shift back to in-person work, this episode is for you.


I walk you through the financial shifts you may experience as your schedules and routines change. From adjusting grocery budgets to accounting for childcare, I cover everything you might not be thinking about, like clothes, tolls, and even pet care, now that you're back at the office full time.


I share practical strategies for making sure your budget is aligned with these changes to help mitigate financial stress and avoid impulse spending. If you're preparing to transition back to the office, tune in for actionable advice on reviewing and amending your budget to stay on track to meet your financial goals.


Consider these financial implications of transitioning back to the office:

  • [01:30] Preparing for new expenses 

    • [02:50] Food 

    • [05:28] Transportation

    • [10:16] Clothing

    • [12:00] Childcare

    • [13:42] Reviewing your schedule to anticipate expenses
