If your WHY is strong enough, you will figure out how! My WHY is what kept me going through the journey. It kept me going when I felt frustrated, tired, and ready to throw in the towel. But because of my Why I am able toโฆ 1. Not fear for job security. I have a solid financial plan and savings to 2. Travel and create experiences for my family without worry of how I will pay for them 3. Leave a legacy for my children and my future grandchildren. But most importantly because of my WHY and achieving financial freedom, it has inspired me to help lead others through their own personal journey and teach them how they can achieve financial freedom as well. So share with me what is your WHY? . . #moneycoachcara #budgetmom #personalfinance #budgettips #moneyexpert #moneycoach #budgetplanner #budgeting #financialgoals #mombosslife #moneytips #moneymanagement #realmomlife #moneytips #financeblogger #womensupportingwomen #personalfinanceforwomen #mompreneur #financialeducation #womenandmoney #moneymatters #personalfinance #financialindependence

How do you stay motivated through your journey? One of the things I like to recommend my clients to do is to create a visual reminder of their progress, it is something that is a simple and effective way to stay motivated on your debt payoff or even saving journey! I donโt know about you but there is something satisfying when you start to see those visual representations filling up as you pay off your debt. Now make sure you keep that visual reminder in a place that you can look at on a consistent basis. Some great locations would be inside your closet, office, or nightstand. These are a great location that is easily accessible but not out in the open for everyone to see! So share with me, do you have a visual reminder for your goals? How do you like to budget? Are you a paper and pencil type of gal? . . #moneycoachcara #inspiredbudget #budget #budgeting #budgetfriendly #debtfree #debtfreecommunity #debtfreejourney #debtfreedom #debtfreeliving #debtfreelife #money #savemoney #savingmoney #personalfinance #financialindependence #financialpeace #payingoffdebt #gettingoutofdebt #debtsnowball #gazelleintense #moneyexpert #financialcoach #moneycoach #financialfreedom #moneytalk #momboss #momlife

Letโs keep it simple friends!๐โฃ โฃ When it comes to budgeting, you donโt have to use a fancy spreadsheet or a budget binder or not even a planner! Pencil and paper will work just fine!โฃ โฃ The important part is to just get started, donโt make it too complicated because thatโs the last thing you want when learning ๐ด๐ฐ๐ฎ๐ฆ๐ต๐ฉ๐ช๐ฏ๐จ ๐ฏ๐ฆ๐ธ. Trust me you will want to keep it ๐ด๐ช๐ฎ๐ฑ๐ญ๐ฆ!โฃ โฃ So first thing first, figure out how much money do you bring in as well as what your bills and debt payments are with the due dates.โฃ โฃ From there, create a system that works best for ๐๐๐! โฃ โฃ For me, I started with paper budgets and as I became comfortable with my budget I started to nerd out using ๐ด๐ฑ๐ณ๐ฆ๐ข๐ฅ๐ด๐ฉ๐ฆ๐ฆ๐ต๐ด that I have automated over the years. . . #itspossible #selfempowerment #inspiredbudget #budget #budgeting #budgetfriendly #debtfree #debtfreecommunity #debtfreejourney #debtfreedom #debtfreeliving #debtfreelife #money #savemoney #savingmoney #moneysaver #savings #financialpeace #financialfreedom #financialindependence #moneycoach #moneywisdom #personalfinance #moneyexpert #financialcoach #goalgetter #financialempowerment #moneymotivation

I help families take control of their finances & cultivate the life of their dreams with financial freedom. ๐ซโฃ โฃ After going through my own personal finance journey and paying off $95k in debt, it inspired me to help other families by giving them the tools and resources that they need to achieve financial freedom. My favorite thing about being a coach is being able to ๐ด๐ถ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฐ๐ณ๐ต my clients and see them go through their own personal ๐ต๐ณ๐ข๐ฏ๐ด๐ง๐ฐ๐ณ๐ฎ๐ข๐ต๐ช๐ฐ๐ฏ.โฃ โฃ 3 fun facts about me:โฃ 1๏ธโฃ I drink coffee all day long... it may be a problem! HA!โฃ โฃ 2๏ธโฃ I have 4 dogs... BIG dogs!ย ย They are all rescues and run my house along with my kids :-)โฃ โฃ 3๏ธโฃ My retirement dream is to own a house on the ocean where I can listen to the water and read (while my husband fishes)โฃ โฃ So now that I shared a little bit about me, it is your turn!

Facing your financial truth can be scary.โฃ โฃ It can be hard to truly face your financial truth. To really open the closet door and pull all those skeletons out and admit that you havenโt been the best at managing your finances. โฃ โฃ It is hard to admit that you โ๐ง๐ข๐ช๐ญ๐ฆ๐ฅโ as an adult and don not know how to properly budget. That you donโt even know how much debt you really owe. But when you face your truth it gives you a sense of feeling free. You no longer have hide and keep up with lies. You get to own your ๐๐๐๐๐ and set new financial goals for your familyโs future!โฃ โฃ Trust me what might scare you now, you will not regret later.๐ซโฃ . . #moneycoachcara #inspiredbudget #budget #budgeting #budgetfriendly #debtfree #debtfreecommunity #debtfreejourney #debtfreedom #debtfreeliving #debtfreelife #money #savemoney #savingmoney #personalfinance #financialindependence #financialpeace #payingoffdebt #gettingoutofdebt #debtsnowball #gazelleintense #moneyexpert #financialcoach #moneycoach #financialfreedom
