There’s no denying that Summer brings the “let’s be OUTSIDE” energy!

The sun is usually shining, the pool is calling our names, and the days are longer.

If you’re not careful though, summer can do a number on your budget.

You may be killing your money goals and then a few months of the summer season can undo all that progress. Don’t let that be you, my friend!

Fight the summer FOMO and need to just spend without consequence. You’ll be so much better off for it!

In this episode, I’m sharing 5 hacks that keep me on track with my budget and goals, especially when the summer season temptation is calling my name!

 

Here's a glance at this episode:

• [01:43] FOMO stands for Fear of Missing Out. Summer is primetime for FOMO. Raya shares how to identify Summer FOMO.
• [04:23] Summer is a vibe, so acting like you won’t spend money in the summer season is a recipe for disaster. Instead, plan for summer fun spending.
• [07:11] No matter where you live, you can always find something free happening in your area or in surrounding areas.
• [11:00] Be honest and open about your budget and money goals. Communicate with your friends or family when you’re trying to avoid excess spending.
• [15:13] Tracking your spending every day or two doesn’t sound exciting in the summer, but it can be instrumental in keeping you on financial track.
