Hey Mama,
Today we are going to be digging a little deeper into saving money. As a beginner the idea is simply to put money into your savings account each and every month. And while this is a great start it’s even more important to make sure each dollar has a job even in the savings account. 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.

So grab your headphones, a festive drink and let’s dive in.

Hey Mama, welcome to the one income family podcast where we talk all things budging on one income.
Today we are going to jump into what can feel like a losing battle, and that is getting a grip on your spending. Now don’t take this to believe that the reason you are off budget is because of your spending and that it’s a bad thing to have spending money.
On the contrary, I want you to enjoy your life and having a little spending money is not going to hurt you or your budget. In fact it gives you the freedom to spend that money without worrying if you’re going to dip into other more important funds.
But if you’re not careful that little bit of freedom can start burning a hole in your pocket and you find yourself giving into the desire even when you’ve spent all of your budgeted amount for free spending. That is what we are going to talk about today. How to curb that urge so that you’re spending money isn’t the thing keeping you from reaching your goals.
So go grab your favorite drink and head outside as we head into today’s episode.

Is your money spread thin from trying to reach all of your goals simultaneously? I’ve been there! A little emergency fund here, a little vacation there and never actually reaching your goals. That’s the thing about money and time. There is a set amount and that’s not going to change. The hard part is deciding what is actually important. Have you ever sat down and analyzed what is going on in your budget? More than likely there is something in there that is less important and it’s taking up space for what is truly important. I’ve heard it said many times for time management, but it works well for money management as well. If it’s not in your budget, it’s not truly important to you. That’s why today I am going to guide you through prioritizing your goals.
So go grab that stroller and enjoy some time for you and let’s get to it.

Hey Mama, I talk a lot about figuring out your priorities and creating a budget that tells your story. What you and your family enjoy and the life you want to live. So I figured it was time to give you an episode that talks about how to do that. How do you find balance in a budget? In other words, how do you set up a budget that doesn’t make you feel restricted, but also has safe boundaries in place to keep you from overspending. That’s what we are going to talk about today. How to balance your budget in a way that tells all who see it what is important to you and what brings you joy.
It’s time for you to go make yourself some coffee and grab a seat as we dive into today's episode.

Today, we are going to be jumping into the conversation of saving money. Now we all know that we should be saving money, but the big question is what should we be saving for?
I have found there to be 5 constants that each budget should have. How you handle each category and create boundaries and amounts will differ, but by knowing what these categories are, it will take the guesswork out of what you should be saving for?
As we head into fall go grab that stroller so that you can enjoy the last bits of the season and let’s get to it.
