“Focusing on those positive things will help you realize that you're not as broke as you might think you are, or feel that you are and help you move in the right direction. Because if you are just constantly downing yourself, it's gonna be really hard for you to muster up the drive and the will to do the things that you need to do with your finances right? So it is important to focus on the positive things that you have done and not focus on all those things that you've done in your past.”

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?
