Jillian Johnsrud tells you how to reduce the budget busters.

Episode 1647: Reduce the Budget Busters by Gary with Jillian Johnsrud on Making Strides To Your Debt Free Climb

Fifteen years ago when Jillian and her husband Adam were married, they had $55,000 in debt (credit card, student loans, and medical debt). They also had big dreams. They wanted to take mini-retirements. They wanted to travel the world. And they wanted to adopt.

They wanted financial freedom: to never worry about having the money to put food on the table or pay the bills again. She grew up poor, and never ever wanted to feel that way again.

In the last 15 years, they paid off all their debt, traveled to 27 counties, lived abroad for 4 years, took 5 mini-retirements, adopted 4 kids (plus had 2 biological kids!). They paid cash for their very first home and bought 2 rental properties that they fixed up themselves. They have served on boards of nonprofits, mentored kids from tough situations, and volunteered in all sorts of roles.

At 32, she became financially independent. Now it’s her mission to help others build a life that perfectly lines up with their values, passion and purpose.

Philip Dancy of Dancy With Money shares two short posts covering wants versus needs, and unexpected emergency funds

Episode 1646: Prioritizing Wants Versus Needs AND The Unexpected Emergency Funds Philip Dancy of Dancy With Money

Philip Dancy joined one of the top investment banking firms upon his graduation from the Five Year MBA program at Hampton University. After starting his career in New York City and getting his first check, he understood that this “adulting” life wasn’t going to be simple. However, the one thing he knew he had to do was create a budget for himself. Through a period of trial and error, Philip was able to establish a solid foundation. As a result, Philip reached a point where he was comfortable and on a trajectory towards financial freedom. Philip’s main goal is to help millennials and Gen Z’ers (but ultimately everyone) establish a strong financial foundation through coaching while helping them turn steps into strides.
