“It's not about doing things the right way from the beginning. You just have to get going and try different things. You just have to be willing to try and willing to get past the fear of failing or not doing it the right way because you're not gonna be able to succeed if you don't even try, right? So you're not lazy, you're not dumb, you just need to get started and quote unquote, get on the right track, right head in the right direction, which the right direction for you is wherever you want to go. There is no right or wrong when it comes to where you want to end up.”

Do you need time, space, and accountability to take action on the things you KNOW you should be doing, such as budgeting so you can actually pay off debt, save money, make a meal plan, and all the other things that keep falling off your to-do list? Would you thrive in a supportive community of other busy moms who understand what you're going through and are working to achieve similar financial goals?
