How is that summer body, bathing suit body coming along? Every year around this time… people start talking about getting their summer body ready; eating better… hitting the gym… cutting back… but nobody's talking about their summer budget. Just like your body, if you ignore it all year and panic in May, things get uncomfortable real fast! Summer bodies vs. summer budgets! On this week's episode of the Crushing Debt Podcast, Shawn & George talk about how to get back on track with your finances as we approach summer, including Things that prevent you from getting your finances under control, like "I'll start Monday," "I'll start next paycheck," gym membership, budget apps you don't open, cheat meals, "It's just one swipe," no plan, no tracking, quick fixes, or balance transfers & "later" thinking; Where summer wrecks your budget, like vacations, kids out of school (extra spending), events, weddings, parties, travel + eating out, or "It's summer, I deserve it" mindset. We talk about a simple 30-Day Reset to get your money back on track before summer gets out of control, including (1) awareness, (2) clean up, (3) building a simple plan, and then (4) execute and adjust as needed. This doesn't happen without a mindset shift, so celebrate those small victories and, before you know it, you'll have a summer bod AND a summer budget !!
