If most of us were honest, I’m sure we’d all admit to impulse shopping from time to time. From a basic perspective, we may assume it’s only a financial problem; however, it’s both a personal and psychological issue, too. The question is: how do we stop the impulse before it happens? Joining me today to answer this question (and more) is founder of the Inspired Budget, Allison Baggerly. She defines impulses spending and addresses the reasons we tend to impulse spend (and (steps for how to stop), plus more that you don’t want to miss!

About Allison |

Allison Baggerly is an author, podcaster, money coach, and founder of Inspired Budget, a personal finance education platform.

As a former teacher, Allison blends her talents for teaching with her passion for personal finances to help others learn how to start budgeting and build a life they love. Allison and her husband paid off over $111,000 of debt on two teachers salaries while growing their family. During the process, she learned how to take back control of her money, stay consistent with paying off debt, and stop emotional spending once and for all.

Allison has been featured in notable media outlets such as Forbes, Business Insider, TIME, Cheddar TV, CNET, and Parents as a budget expert who gives women a step-by-step process to break free from the grueling paycheck-to-paycheck cycle. Women turn to Allison, and Inspired Budget, for advice and inspiration every single day.
