160. Debt-Free Holidays: How to Plan Now and Avoid a January Money Crash
Description
The holidays shouldn’t leave you with a financial hangover. Too many families overspend in December and end up paying for it well into the new year. In this episode, I’ll share practical steps to create a holiday budget you can actually stick to—so you enjoy the season without relying on credit cards or buy-now-pay-later debt.
In this episode you’ll learn:
- Why 36% of Americans go into holiday debt—and how to avoid being one of them
- The simple sinking fund method to cover gifts, meals, travel, and traditions
- How to set clear boundaries with family and simplify your gift list
- Creative ways to cash-flow Christmas through decluttering and subscriptions swaps
- Why intentional planning creates peace and margin instead of panic and pressure
