Budget Effect: How to Budget, How to Pay off Debt, Save Money, Live on a Budget, Improve your Money Mindset

If you have trouble sticking to a budget and reaching your money goals, then let's take a look at your shopping habits. And I'm not talking about LACK here. I'm not going to tell you that YOU CAN'T SHOP. I'm actually teaching you how to UPGRADE your shopping habits to get MORE of what you want.

There are 3 Steps to Upgrading your Shopping Habits
1. Prepare ahead of time - know your values and write your lists.
2.  Block temptation - I got strategies for you on this.
3.  Have a plan for "In the Moment" decisions - I got ideas for you on this too.

My mission is to teach you how to create and stick to a plan for your money that you believe in and love so that you can have less stress, more freedom, and move forward.

…That’s the budget effect! And this is the budget effect podcast.

Using your budget to live an intentional life is the goal. Since most of us value connecting and spending time with our kids, let's make sure we put that in the budget each month.
This works both ways: 1. We value it, so we put it in our budget. 2. And it's in our budget, so it reminds us to live intentionally in what we value.

In this episode you will learn about how "funds" can be part of your budget. You will learn the action steps to setting up and using a fund. And we will touch on the end-of-month closeout that is a key part to moving forward with money.

My mission is to teach you how to create and stick to a plan for your money that you believe in and love so that you can have less stress, more freedom, and move forward.

[BONUS] This slightly off-topic bonus episode is an explanation of a practice that I used to finally release the negative emotions that would not leave me. I specifically used it to release anger and resentment. You could use to it to release any negative emotion: stress, worry, anxiety, sadness. If you have processed it, felt it, sat it in for long enough and are ready to let it go, this could be what you need.

My mission is for you to have less stress and more freedom, right? Well that doesn't just magically happen because you get your money in order. Money has a big part in your stability and your peace, but there are other things you have to let go of as well.

This is a conversation about how to let go of worry, how to release resentment, how to stop feeling guilty, and even how letting go of clutter is important too.

What's the point in moving forward with money while these other huge things are holding us back?

Sometimes people think a budget limits us, but actually the opposite is true. A budget is putting money toward what we value, and choosing NOT to spend money on what we don’t value. It is a tool to get us to financial stability, financial freedom, debt free life, and intentional living in a life we’ve created and curated. 

In this episode: 

1. Why it’s important to know what you value
2. How to figure out what you value
3. How to build a budget around your values

My mission is to teach you how to create and stick to a plan for your money that you believe in and love so that you can have less stress and more freedom.
