Snag Our Simplified Budget System!

Budget Besties, we’ve got a treat for you! Meet Semajh—a 29-year-old child of God, self-proclaimed America’s Sweetheart, and a man on a mission to afford (not just buy!) 300 luxury cotton pajamas. Yes, he knows his Pima from his Supima, and yes—he’s doing it the bougie and budget-savvy way.

In this hilarious and heartfelt episode, Semajh walks us through his journey from struggling with a clunky budgeting app to discovering a system that actually works for real life. He’s getting ahead on his bills, setting up buckets (from “New Teeth” to “10% and Then Some”), and feeling what it’s like to truly trust his budget.

We chat about:

1. Why separate accounts are everything 👏🏽

2. How to break free from the paycheck-to-paycheck grind

3. Making room for joy (and pajamas!) without breaking your budget

4. The plan to reclaim 24% of his income from debt

5. And why he’s holding out on that dental discount—with purpose

Semajh reminds us all: budgeting isn’t about deprivation. It’s about alignment. His confidence, clarity, and commitment to doing things differently? Pure inspiration.
