  • Welcome to the first episode of my new series about underearning! I will not allow you to make less than your worth. Let's make a goal for 2024 to leverage earning potential and get the salary your experience, expertise, and knowledge demands.

    The root cause of under-earning is a mindset block. You aren't earning more because you aren't asking for more. But breaking free from under-earning isn't just about asking for a raise. It's about confronting the fears that hold us back, like the fear of hearing "no." Rejection is part of the journey but also a stepping stone towards growth. Surrounding yourself with people who uplift and support your financial goals and building a financial safety net will also give you the confidence to ask for a raise.

    Throughout this series, I'll dive deeper into each aspect of under-earning and how to overcome it. It's time to stop settling and start making the money you deserve!

In addition to reflecting on Q1, it's time to refresh intentions and goals so we can continue to foster positive money habits.

    By envisioning where we want to be in the future, whether it's April 2025 or the next six months, we can chart a clear path toward financial success. My goal is to empower you to take control of your finances so you can spend drama-free and confidently pursue your dreams!

  • In today's episode, I share how I budget as a financial coach. Budgeting is the second step in my five-step plan for building wealth, and I give you my perspective on personal and business budgeting.

    First, I explain the power of a zero-based budget, where every dollar has a purpose. I highlight how this approach brings clarity and flexibility in spending while aligning with my financial goals. Then, I explain how my personal and business budgets intertwine in my three-tiered budgeting strategy.

    I am spotlighting how I budget to inspire you to make changes in your finances. Whether your goal is to pay off debt, save for the future, or get set up for retirement, this episode guides you in creating budgets that fit your unique circumstances.
