Ever notice how your thoughts about money shape your results? In this episode, Erin breaks down two powerful ways of thinking about your household money: “if” and “because.”

Are you telling yourself:

  • “I’ll stick to my budget if everything goes smoothly”?
  • “I’ll save if there’s anything left over”?

Or are you shifting toward:

  • “I’ll stay consistent because I want freedom”?
  • “I’ll save because it matters to my family’s future”?

This small mindset shift changes everything. When you start leading with “because,” you stop waiting for perfect conditions and start creating the results you want — saving money, paying off debt, and building financial peace in your household.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • The difference between “if” and “because” thinking (and how to spot yours)
  • How your mindset affects consistency, savings, and debt payoff
  • Practical examples to help you shift into “because” thinking this week
  • Why your money follows your mindset

🎯 Your challenge: Notice where you’re living in your “if” — and start stepping into your “because.”
