Snag Our Simplified Budget System!

Hey, Budget Besties! 👋

Today, we’re reairing one of our favorite conversations — a guest appearance we did with our good friend Jesse Merchan, host of the Bold Faith Moves podcast. This was the very first time her community talked about budgeting on her show — and we went all in on making the “B word” less scary, more joyful, and a whole lot more empowering. 💪✨

In this episode, we share our story of friendship and faith, how we both became debt-free, and the real-life budgeting tips that changed everything. You’ll learn how to simplify your money, stop feeling overwhelmed, and still enjoy the life God’s blessed you with — yes, even if you love Target runs and pumpkin spice lattes. ☕💸

• 💳 The one simple bank account hack that will change your financial life

• 🏦 Why separating bills and spending money brings instant clarity and peace

• 💁‍♀️ How to be “bougie on a budget” — and still hit your money goals

• 🔁 How to automate your money so it practically runs itself

• 🙌 Why budgeting isn’t about restriction — it’s about freedom and stewardship

• 💖 The faith-filled mindset shift that turns guilt and shame into peace and purpose
