Hi Friends! If your budget feels more like a suggestion than a plan, you’re not alone. But something we’ve learned over the years is that a budget doesn’t have to be painful or restrictive—it just has to be realistic. We’ll show you how! We created a FREE 30-Day Budget Transformation Challenge filled with all our…

Sometimes we set goals with the best intentions, but they don’t always stick.  Maybe they start strong and then fade or they sound great at first but we lose momentum along the way. The thing is, goals don’t fizzle out because we’re lazy or bad at follow-through. They fade away when we don’t have a…

Hi 👋 We’re just a few days out from the end of Q1, which means it’s time to set our sights on spring goals & skate on into April’s new budget.  This month, we have the lowdown on what to spend on, where to save, & big money moves that will make Q2 even more…

On the other, there’s the “you only live once” mindset that can leave you with more regret than freedom. Man do we feel you. We believe the…

We’ve all been there… standing in front of an overstuffed closet and feeling like we have nothing to wear. It’s tempting to grab a cheap trendy piece to “fix” the problem, but fast fashion often leads to more waste, lower quality clothes, and regretful purchases. That’s why we’re all about buying quality over quantity (it…

Happy Monday, beautiful people!  We know we can’t be the only ones who get excited about birthdays. The best part? A lot of places want to celebrate you by handing out goodies just for being born. It’s like saying, “Hey, you made it another year. Here’s a free donut.” 🍩 If you’ve got a birthday…

Hey 👋 Can you believe we’re a quarter of the way through the year?! It’s true! Which is why it’s the perfect time to evaluate our 2025 goals.  Our greatest goal? Getting more of what we value, for less money. Pinpointing the things that matter most and identifying how we can get more of those…
