Fixed vs variable expenses (and why the 50/30/20 rule isn't always realistic)
Setting up automatic systems that work even when you're busy
Adjusting your budget when life throws curveballs

Our September 2025 workshop series covers these fundamentals over six weeks, with plenty of time to practice between sessions.

An emergency fund isn't about hoarding money—it's about sleep-better-at-night peace of mind. We'll help you figure out what size fund actually makes sense for your situation.
