I help busy moms create systems to save money and pay off debt so they can reach their big dreams faster and easier. I was able to pay off $45,000 in just 17 months including $25,000 in student loans in just 10 months.

Finance, Food Network, USA TODAY, MSN, CNBC, NerdWallet, and many others. “You definitely should find some ways that they can help you because it's not just the time to sit down and do the things that you know you need to do with your finances, it's also the mental load. And guess what? I know you are already handling the mental load for maybe everything in your family, if not the majority of the things. So it's okay to help spread that load out and relieve yourself of some of that and get rid of some of the guilt surrounding that as well.” - Ashley Patrick Timestamps: 00:00 - Introduction to today's episode 02:20 - Overcoming perfectionism and fear of relinquishing control 04:05 - Teaching children about money and involving them in financial decisions 06:18 - Involving your partner with managing the finances 09:45 - Maintaining focus on the end goal 13:07 - The significance of visual aids and setting specific end dates for goals 15:30 - Tips on how to approach your family to get their help and get them on board If you would like to sit down with me and discuss what you are struggling with and some steps that you can take to make progress and get over that big struggle, I invite you to sign up for your own Budget Strategy Session episode at budgetsmadeeasy.com/strategy and have a mini coaching session with me.
