Hey Mama,
I know what it’s like to get to the end of the Christmas season only to find out that you’ve already spent all of your Christmas budget. Which is so EASY to do! Especially if you’re like me and you want to make sure that everyone gets a gift and feels loved by you. Or you want your Children to be involved and so you let them buy Christmas gifts for everyone as well, meaning you're buying two gifts for everyone.
As we head into the last week before Christmas when we tend to start running low on Christmas funds, I wanted to keep your spirits up and bring you a few things you can do so that you can get those last minute items without having to reach for that credit card.
So go cuddle up with a nice warm drink, get comfy with them babies and open your heart to God as we settle into today’s episode.

Hey Mama,
It’s that time of year and Christmas is just around the corner. If you’re anything like me, you dream of doing all the things, giving as much as you can and working to instill the spirit of Christmas into your Children while also teaching them about its true meaning, the birth of Christ.
But you have one dilemma, your budget for all things Christmas is Small. How are you supposed to get them the toys they are asking for, do all of the fun family activities or buy the pretty decorations? Have no fear because that is exactly what we are talking about today!
So go cuddle up with a nice warm drink, get comfy with them babies and open your heart to God as we settle into today’s episode.

Let me stop you right there. You can create the best memories on a dime and I am going to show you how right now!
So go cuddle up with a nice warm drink, get comfy with them babies and open your heart to God as we settle into today’s episode.

Hey Mama,
If you live in the United States, this week is Thanksgiving. It’s all about being grateful for what we have and blessing God for those things. However, the world we live in is all about selfishness, about how you as an individual are going to make it out in the end. A heart posture based on selfishness will never generate abundance. Instead you need to walk away from the world and lean into gratitude, contentment, patience and love to be able to truly embrace a life of joy and wealth.
And that my friend is what this episode is all about. How a heart posture of gratitude can generate wealth and abundance both physically and emotionally, even when you are living on a budget.
So cuddle up with a nice warm drink, get comfy with them babies and open your heart to God as we settle into today’s episode.

Hey Mama!
A couple episodes ago I gave you a way to save some cash fast for Christmas. I gave you a no spend challenge and I got to thinking, if you are saving all of your extra cash for Christmas, (which if you want to learn more about that go check out episode 102) but if you are saving all of your extra cash, how are you supposed to host thanksgiving if you haven’t already saved for the holiday?
That my friend is what today is all about! I am going to share with you how I host thanksgiving using only my monthly grocery budget and nothing extra. So plug in your headphones, grab a pen and paper and let’s get to it.

That's why in this episode you are going to learn about sinking funds and how with their help you will always have the cash you need on hand!
Go plug in your headphones, grab a cup of tea and let’s dive in.

Hey Mama,
As we have just started the month of November I thought it would be a good time to introduce a no spend challenge. Whether you have been saving money all year long and are looking for a little cushion for the holidays or haven’t started saving at all, this is a great way to get some cash for both Thanksgiving and Christmas.
So grab your headphones, a festive drink and let’s dive in.

Hey Mama, have you ever looked at your budget and thought to yourself that something just feels off, but you go ahead and fill out your budget the exact same way you have been doing it and by the end of the paycycle you find that another budget bit the dust because you just couldn’t follow it.
This my friend is normal, and this feeling that something is off is what we are going to be going over today. If something doesn’t feel right then things have to change, so in todays episode you are going to learn what it means to have a budget out of alignment with your life so that you can create a budget that you are excited to follow because it is supporting the life you want to live.
So go grab yourself a nice warm drink and a pair of headphones and let’s get to it.
