One of the hardest things to do, is to tell yourself no. Keeping other people accountable and knowing that you have others to keep you accountable makes the hard decisions so much easier.
However, when you are the only one keeping yourself accountable you easily change your mind or rationalize that you can do something else because it won’t make that much difference if you say yes this one time. This forms loose boundaries and you find yourself going from a one time thing to continuously saying yes. Putting yourself into a financial struggle.
This is what episode 82 is all about. Setting strong boundaries and giving yourself the help to say No when you would normally say yes. This episode is going to give you the ability to set strong boundaries and say no to your overspending habits.
So grab yourself a pen and paper because today's episode is chalk full of information that you are not going to want to forget and let’s dive in!

Hey Mama,
Today’s episode is all about learning how to live beneath your means. Which essentially means learning how to live on less than the number on your paycheck. When you first start managing your money your focus is on the amount that is left in the account. Meaning you buy what’s most important first and then use the leftover as you please.
This is a good starting point in managing your finances, but it’s not going to help you pay off debt or achieve any financial goal you wish to reach in the future. It’s an in the moment paycheck to paycheck style of budgeting, which again is a great starting point to help you start being mindful about your money,
However, your ultimate goal is to be able to save for your future wishes and desires. And how you start doing that is what this episode is all about. This episode will help you set up your budget so that you are living on less than you make, allowing you to pay off debt and start saving for those living big on a budget dreams that you have.
So go grab that stroller, plug in those headphones and Let’s get to it!
