Hosting Today: Hey, I’m Ashley Patrick, a personal finance expert and founder of Budgets Made Easy. 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. I’m a Master Financial Coach and have a bachelor's degree in psychology and will help you get to the root of your money problems. Since my journey started I have been featured on Fox Business, Yahoo! Finance, Food Network, USA TODAY, MSN, CNBC, NerdWallet, and many others. “If you are feeling a certain type of way around certain people, following certain accounts, or even getting certain emails, and you feel like it's causing you to spend money that you don't necessarily want to spend, then it's important to unsubscribe for emails, unfollow people on social media and identify what exactly is triggering you. Because once you identify that, it will make it easier for you to change how you respond to the trigger, right? It may still trigger you, but it makes it better once you identify and recognize why it's triggering you. You can change the way you respond to it to react in a healthier way.” - Ashley Patrick Do you wish you had a supportive group of women like you to connect with about money?
