Nobody wants to spend summer hunched over spreadsheets and saying no to spending money on brunch and margs. And the good news is, you don't have to.

In this episode, we're rewriting the narrative around summer spending and financial progress. You can sip spicy margs, take weekend getaways, and still get three months ahead on bills. It's not about restriction. It's about intention.

If you've ever felt like the only way to save money is to cancel joy, this one's for you. I'm walking you through my 321 Summer Fun Protocol, a simple framework to help you build savings, pay off debt, or invest for the future, without quitting iced coffee, cutting trips, or ghosting your social life.

In this episode, you'll learn:

✨ How to pick one powerful money goal and make real progress by fall ✨Why prioritizing just two fun things this summer will actually reduce your overspending while increasing your joy ✨ How monthly check-ins (aka CEO parties) give you more freedom, not more rules ✨ Real examples of clients who vacationed, shopped, and hosted parties…while hitting big financial goals ✨ How to build a summer money plan that aligns with your lifestyle, not some spreadsheet fantasy ✨ Why the "fuck-it blackout" spending spiral happens, and exactly how to avoid it

This isn't about saying no. It's about choosing the right yeses and designing a system that lets you feel free and grounded at the same time.
