Description

 Feeling crushed by rising costs and shrinking paychecks?  In this episode, I walk you through the exact 3-step strategy I used during a financially tight season and how you can apply it to your own life starting today, while maintaining emotional stability. 

3-Step Strategy

 ✨ Step 1: Pause and don’t panic.

 Pausing can help us avoid rash decisions and allow the problem-solving part of the brain to engage. You can do the same — when you feel overwhelmed, stop, breathe, and look at the facts. This reminds you of what things are in your control and helps you decide the next steps. 

 ✨ Step 2: Cut non-essentials

What are the items or services that you could cut out, for now, or try to find a more budget-friendly option to replace the one that is weighing down your budget?

 ✨ Step 3: Get creative with solutions.

 Can't cut much?  Negotiating or doing some research can help you get a better rate on items that support the life and well-being of your family. Find creative ways to stretch your resources — maybe it’s adjusting frequency, bundling services, or trading with friends. There’s often more flexibility than we first think. 

 🎧 By following these three steps — pause, cut, and negotiate, and being creative — you can face tight times with confidence, clarity, and action.
